Let's go to New York's favorite corrugated plastic cutout, Steve Gelbs, for the intro.

I don't think they need to worry about the HR Apple for this game.

So far it looks like getting the ball out of the infield is going to be a rarity.

Re: Splitsville IGT Game 2 0825

Every guy making his MLB debut against the Mets looks like Clayton Fucking Kershaw. Shit drives me bats. Shouldn't one of these guys go 1.2 innings and give up ten runs?

The Mets are the "visiting" team in their own ballpark, but they're wearing white and the "home" team Marlins are in gray.



I wonder if the Fish get to use the home clubhouse for this game.

Well, the Guillotine goes down, so we have two outs and ... Sanchez again.



Why not?

That must've been some good pitch framing because that called third strike on Guillorme looked like a ball.

Look what they've done with my game, Ma!

I think someone said earlier that Lugo was on 50-60 pitch count leash

so curious he's pulled at 39. Stay tuned.

Re: Splitsville IGT Game 2 0825

I have to wonder when the last time was that a starting pitcher was pulled after three perfect innings.

It's a long season so they're being cautious with Lugo... what? it's half over? What are they doing???

That's one way to get around the RiSP issue.

Stealing second, third, and home consecutively is something that used to be done in the days before Babe Ruth.

Re: Splitsville IGT Game 2 0825

It was long believed that Ty Cobb held the record for stealing his way around the bases in one trip, but somebody did a deep dive, and it turns out Honus Wagner had done it more.



Welcome to a serious club, Jon Berti.

So they're a team with great hitting that can't hit and a team with great pitching whose pitching has evaporated. And they have a 5-game set with the Yankees this weekend.



Maybe I'll watch the RNC tonight, that'll be less excruciating.

Re: Splitsville IGT Game 2 0825

It may be time for the Mets to get a hitting coach who actually comes to the ballpark.

And didn't the team have a team shrink a while ago?

Or maybe just an EMT who can give the entire team the Heimlich Maneuver.

After this weekend, they may need a coroner.

Gary was talking about how this could be a "make or break" week for the Mets. They've only played two of nine games so far, but for now it looks more break than make.
