degrom Day was d-Day. NYM@SD - IGT 6/6/21

deGrom Day was d-Day. And on d-Day +1, let's honor the memory of those veterans, dead and alive, who stormed the beaches of Normandy 77 years ago today, to save democracy and the world. And a happy 77th to Bud "Twiggy" Harrelson.



Marcus Stroman v Chris Paddack, 4:10PM, EST.

Nobody posting here!



San Diego manager Tingler just got called for arguing checked swings. He seemed to keep his head so I was guessing he said one of the nasty words. And just as I'm thinking that, a four-year old is walking behind home plate with cotton candy and her mother covering the girl's ears.

Mets lose the first replay challenge on a play where the evidence was probably on their side, but not clear and convincing.



We need to get back to baseball with two camera crews.

With Tingler's exit, Skip Shumacher becomes the most tatted up manager in personal memory.

Had there been one out, the team might have had a shot an around-the-horn triple play.

For many of us, throwing from 3B to 1B would require a cut-off man. Drury did it from his knees. Fantastic play.

You pump your arm to throw, change your mind and try to hang on to it, but the ball has other ideas and slips through your fingers.



It's very common in polar bear populations.

Getting a split on the road against the Padres would have been great with our regular players. To do it with the bench mob's bench mob is fantastic! LGM!!

I feel good about this split against the team with the best record in the league. The Mets felt dominant in their wins whereas they only felt a couple of hits away from taking the lead in their losses. You got to figure that if and when their hitters return from the IL they will be positioned to compete with the best teams in baseball.

Yup, as bad as they can look sometimes they are doing what you're supposed to do, winning or splitting the series, living for another day

Bumping this to the new page.



Also, fun fact! If this was a 60-game season, the Mets would have a magic number of 3. (Instead, it's 105, which is slightly more daunting.)
