IGT Fri Apr 21 Mets @ Gints Let the Good Times Roll

A 10:15 PM start and if the Mets official web site can be believed, Joey Lucchesi will make his 2023 starting debut tonight.



A 6-1 start to this West coast swing is pretty damn great.

The Giants are a predominantly lefty hitting team which bodes well for Joey



Then there's that Wilmer guy

They also have another right handed hitter by the name of J.D. Davis. Oh, and don't forget Darin Ruf. Rumor has it that Ruf kills left handers, though I can't recall seeing evidence of that.

Hey, we're under way, and all those guys are in the lineup for San Francisco.

Magic flip from Guillorme gets Lucchesi back to the dugout in the first.

Guillorme & Lindor are fun to watch.

Even the DP they failed to turn was poetry in motion just to make it that close.

I don't want to force myself to see patterns where there are none, but Lucchesi seems to be getting better every inning.

Lucchesi with a 1-2-3 fourth.

It wasn't by much, but McNeil was out of the baseline.



That call ends up costing the Giants three runs.

The problem with Mets Fast Forward is they include the score in the scroll at the bottom of the screen. I couldn't help but see the Mets scored 7 when they'd only had 4.



Next time will affix duct tape over the bottom of my TV screen

Re: IGT Fri Apr 21 Mets @ Gints Let the Good Times Roll

Baty is making more consistent contact than Álvarez, but the winning road trip has allowed them both to loosen up and play heads-up ball without pressuring themselves to break through on one swing, which was Álvarez last week.



Also, Marte has been out a couple of days now, and nobody's talking about it, because it so far isn't hurting them. It's allowed McNeil to float out to right, and Guillorme to get consistent playing time at second, almost always against righties, and get his bat going.

Gary loves saying 'churve'.



Lucchesi was stunningly on point. Let's hope it wasn't a flash in the pan because he'll need to take at least one more turn in the rotation.

Casually watching MFF for a hoot. Love this ballpark. Only been once, in

the good ol' Pac Bell days.



Wilmer looks so grown up. Where does the time go?
