Carrasco is the least fun pitcher to watch. Playing behind him must be awful. Shades of Steve Trachsel, but with less positive results.

Didn't Dakota Hudson play the teenaged girl in True Grit?

I think of Dakota as a feminine name. I think I have a DVD here some-

wheres titled Dakota Does Daytona. Hot stuff!

I'd love to play behind Carlos Carrasco.

I have my first baseman's mitt at the ready.



If Carlos sucks today, I think he should be shown the door...

Carlos did well to get out of that allowing just one run



These are heady times

Well, 2-1, anyhow.



I'm not sure that homer from Alonso had a chance to descend.

Carrasco did alright, but I think the heat certainly got to him.

On the other hand, it's nice to see Carrasco still in the dugout and engaged in the game after the Mets escape the bottom of the previous inning.

I don't know that eyeblack does anything, but strange to see Francisco Álvarez out there without it in a bright, sunny day game.

And ... Adam gets two quick outs, but a hit-batsman forces Buck to perform a quick Kolarektomy.

Nice bunt attempt by Ortega, but his hook slide — seemingly meant to avoid a potential tag — allowed an easier exchange from the pitcher to first.

btw, Gary said '62 Candles' for Ronnie earlier in the game. Except that he turned 63 yesterday.

I'm OK with that send.

You wouldn't do that in the 9th but 'stealing' an extra run there vs hoping for another two-out hit is a worthwhile gamble, IMO, and he's likely safe on anything other than a perfect throw.

I kinda did feel like the BGotY on the peripheries.



I'm not sure I got a BGotY intensity from the dugout, though.
