Friday night and the lights are low

Telling Atlanta ‘aw, hell no'

It is the blackout scene

Win in Queens

Braves to meet their Taijuan Waterloo. Ian Anderson sends out an SOS.

Re: IGT 8/5/2022: ATL@NYM — Black Out the Braves

In my mind, Ian Anderson is better than a 4.99 ERA and 1.50 WHIP.



I guess he struggled early on, because his last few starts have been pretty solid with one outlier.

They wrote some great hooks

Ian Anderson has been terrible this season, of course he will be spot on for the Mets.

Checking the minor league scoreboard (this is going to be a long night):

Syracuse up 4-0 in the 4th. Alvarez went deep for his 5th AAA home run. Vientos hasn't ben in the starting lineup for a few days but did hit a pinch hit homer a few games ago.



Binghamton won the first game (end of a rain suspended game) 11-8. Bret Baty went 3-4 with 2 HR and 4 RBI. Game 2 just starting.



Brooklyn leading 2-0 after 4. A Ramirez is 0-1 with a BB. He's hitting .287 since his promotion from low A ball.



St. Lucie is down 7-4 in the 7th. Leadoff hitter Omar De Los Santos is 1-2 with a double and two stolen bases, giving him 55 SB on the season.



Back to this game.

They'll get Iglesias first, who's no slouch himself.



They can get him.

So, if nothing else we'll force them to use both Iglesies and Jansen in advance of tomorrow's DP.


They're going to turn a DP tomorrow? Which inning?


I'm keeping that a secret for the time being.



Now, imagine if we force them to use both Iglesies and Jansen AND we get to one or both.

Would've been a good time to bunt, Brandimmo.

Shit. big homerun by Contreras means they probably don't use Jansen to start the 9th and therefore have him more available tomorrow

The Braves now have a ridiculous 25 HRs from their catchers. Td'A = 11, Contreras = 14

Not even sure the Yanx have that many.

We have, what, two?





oe: Yanx catchers = 16. 10 for Trevino, 6 for Higoshioka

Jansen's delivery feels like a balk

I'm not sure I remember the last homer McNeil hit the other way.

Bullpen kept it close. Mets made them use up a bunch of their better relievers. Black jerseys looked good. So there's your spin

Re: IGT 8/5/2022: ATL@NYM — Black Out the Braves

The silver lining tonight is that with a double header tomorrow the Mets battled back and used Williams, Rodriguez, Hunter, and Givens. You won't miss those guys in a close game tomorrow.



Diaz, Ottovino, May, Lugo did not pitch.



The Braves had to use Minter, Iglesias, and Jansen (and Lee and McHugh) to hold the lead.



Matzek and Stephens didn't pitch. (and Strider if he isnt starting this series?)



I'd call that a moral victory when down 8-0 at least.
