3B Villar SS Lindor 1B McCann LF Smith C Nido RF McKinney 2B Peraza CF Maybin RHP Walker

Benjamin Grimm May 29 2021 02:27 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

I'm really glad that Walker is back.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 29 2021 05:24 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Underway. Got away with a foul ball call on what should have been a passed ball

Willets Point May 29 2021 05:24 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Freeman k's on a pitch at his eye-level.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 29 2021 05:25 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

And Nido erases Acuna stealing

Willets Point May 29 2021 05:26 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Acuna nabbed stealing. No replay necessary.

Willets Point May 29 2021 05:35 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

An early lead courtesy of James McCann is a pleasant surprise.

Willets Point May 29 2021 06:01 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Maybin beaned on the funny bone. Looks really ouchy. I'm hoping he isn't joining the IL club.

Willets Point May 29 2021 06:04 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Walker, uh, walks! Bases loaded for Villar!

ashie62 May 29 2021 06:06 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

LGM!

Johnny Lunchbucket May 29 2021 06:07 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Almost

Willets Point May 29 2021 06:07 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

And Villar hits a drive to the deep warning track. Sigh.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 29 2021 06:13 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Heredia plays with a head of steam. I liked him as a Met

Johnny Lunchbucket May 29 2021 06:22 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Holy shit I jinxed Heredia, and McCann is halfway to a cycle

Frayed Knot May 29 2021 06:22 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Speed kills!

Willets Point May 29 2021 06:22 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Heredia did not have enough steam to catch up with that McCann drive. Falls in for a triple.

Lol

Willets Point May 29 2021 06:24 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Actually, official scorer ruling is pending. I'd give 'em a hit.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 29 2021 06:25 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Yeah, Dommie

Villar, nothing but net

So now it's time for one of the silliest phrases in baseball broadcasting: James McCann is just a triple away from the cycle.

Frayed Knot May 29 2021 07:00 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Ian Anderson heard songs from Mets' wood tonight.

MFS62 May 29 2021 07:09 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

The way McCann is hitting, when he comes off the[CROSSOUT] D[/CROSSOUT]IL, Alonso is going to have a tough time getting back into the lineup. (I couldn't even type that with a straight face) Later

bmfc1 May 29 2021 07:12 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

I'd feel even better about this game if Walker was able to get through 6 and not 5 but the up-downs are determinative and that's that.

Hooray for Maybin

Johnny Lunchbucket May 29 2021 07:25 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Drury is no blockhead

Benjamin Grimm May 29 2021 07:25 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Nice! Give up one then get back two!

Nice baserunning by Villar & Lindor on that "single"

Benjamin Grimm May 29 2021 07:33 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Okay... I had been thinking that the last three innings would be May, Familia, Diaz but now I'd like to see Barnes and Smith finish it out, unless the score narrows, of course.

Lefty Specialist May 29 2021 07:34 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Who is this team and what have they done with the Mets?

Johnny Lunchbucket May 29 2021 07:36 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Let's see if we can expose the flaas in the Braves bullpen

Flaa? Really?

While we sometimes beat the Braves, we rarely make them look this silly.

Benjamin Grimm May 29 2021 07:43 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

About a week's worth of runs in one inning.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 29 2021 07:56 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

It may just be the 10-run lead but these national tv announcers are fine. Who is the jock?

Lefty Specialist May 29 2021 07:59 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

A win tonight will give the Battered Bastards of Baseball a 3 1/2 game lead on the division. As they say, Amazin'.

Fman99 May 29 2021 08:06 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Lindor goes yard. Everything coming up Milhouse here!

Frayed Knot May 29 2021 08:06 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Who says Lindor's not clutch?!?!?!

bmfc1 May 29 2021 08:11 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Maz to C or 1B after this inning?

Adam Amin & Tom Verducci Amin (who I never heard of before tonight), 34, moved to FOX from ESPN in 2020. American born (Chicago) son of Pakistani immigrants. Older brothers all born in Pakistan.

Assuming the Mets hang on: ATL--lose WSH--lose AND lose PHI--lose MIA--lose.

These broadcasters are all really good at not being Joe Buck.

=Fman99 post_id=65970 time=1622341153 user_id=86] These broadcasters are all really good at not being Joe Buck.

What's also nice is that this game isn't on FOX in the DC area so I'm watching, per usual, via mlb.tv and it has the option of picking the audio so I have Howie and Wayne with the FOX video and it's perfectly synced. ESPN doesn't give you that option.

Fman99 May 29 2021 08:23 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Doesn't Sean Reid-Foley have to go rob a train or something?

I hate that photo. I feel like Maja is in the act of calling me a big zero.

Willets Point May 30 2021 09:48 AM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

What a fun game. I missed most of the fireworks because I was putting my kiddo to bed. But how fun is it to wallop the Braves, and gain a bigger lead in first place, all while the Mets literally have enough players on the IL to field an entire injured team?

Frayed Knot May 30 2021 09:52 AM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

Saturday night's romp also put the team, for the first time this season, into a positive run differential (+2)

G-Fafif May 30 2021 03:11 PM Re: IGT 05/29 - Braves at Mets - Maybe?

SWEEP! Retroactive, but still.
