Re: Met firsts 2023 PLAY NOW

Point of order — Had McNeil struck out after falling to 0-2 on the weird pitch clock violation, would he be the answer on #13, or does it have to be a violation for strike three?

Johnny Lunchbucket
Mar 31 2023 01:35 PM
Re: Met firsts 2023 PLAY NOW

I was thinking about that while that turn was going on. It looked like a hard decision was coming but Jeff said fuck that.



I guess it's true. If you get a strike for a clock violation and strike out, it played a role in that whiff.
