Tonight the Mets oppose Rye, NY's own George Kirby, a 1st round pick making only his 2nd career start.



Zimmo

Marte

Lindor

Alonso DH

McNeil

Smith, 1B

Escobar

Jankowski, LF

Mazeika C

Bassitt P

Marte and Alonso are the only righthanded hitters in that lineup.



It's good to see Jankowski get off the bench.

When Gary said the Mets would be facing the “Rye, New York, product,” I heard it as the “wry New York product” and hoped his Seattle teammates were enjoying George's sophisticated East Coast asides.

It's been light but steady rain for a couple hours here and should be for a few more at least.

We're getting it in sheets here in Bal'mer.



The system is coming up from the Carolinas, so if they get it started, they may have to play it fast, as what I've got, you're going to be getting.

This is going to be going on for 5 hours at this rate as we have the 2nd replay challenge on the same 3rd base umpire, both we won. So Marte has a triple

Bassitt looked really agitated the whole game. After this, there is no way Scherzer will ever throw to him.

Yet again the SNY app fails to carry a WPIX game in my neighborhood and I am forced to resort to shady Internet streams to watch the broadcast.



In other news it's surprising that this team continues to win considering how many hitters are scuffling of late.

Rule change: if a RP comes in with a lead, gives up said lead, and then his team scores to make him the winning pitcher, the RP's win reverts to the pitcher who had the lead when that RP entered the game.

Miami, Washington, and Atlanta all win, and Phillies are beating the Dodgers 8-3 in the seventh, so the Mets averted losing a game to the entire division.

"I'll say it again: this is easily the best and most animated crowd that Citi Field has hosted this season -- maybe even since before the pandemic.

Fans waited through a 68-minute rain delay, we're getting on toward midnight, and it's still crazy loud with every pitch."




Translation: They were good and drunk

Disagree. Did not see evidence of that anywhere near me. No fights/bad behavior/streams of obscenities - the kinds of things one does see when the crowd is over-served.



I have no doubt the Mets sold some beers last night but “good and drunk” is a bad way to describe it from afar.
