IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

MFS62 Aug 25 2023 02:30 PM

Patrick Sandoval 6-10 4.08 Kodai Senga 10-6 3.19 Ohtani will bat second for L.A. I wonder if he has faced Senga before tonight and what the results were. Game time 7:10 WPIX will carry the game. Later

Look at DJ, cracking the lineup against a lefty.

ashie62 Aug 25 2023 04:58 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Yes there is a game tonight. Funky weather on tap The young attendees tonight can say that they saw Ohtani play in their older years

MFS62 Aug 25 2023 05:30 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Ohtani walked in is first at bat. Later

ashie62 Aug 25 2023 05:32 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

My first attended game was these Los Angeles Angels 1966. George Brunet pitching

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 05:46 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Mendick and Araúz give us two consecutive sub-.500 OPS's in a row.

Johnny Lunchbucket Aug 25 2023 05:50 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

They live up to that and more

ashie62 Aug 25 2023 06:01 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

I don't know that there is anyone else to use or roster to be constructed

MFS62 Aug 25 2023 06:01 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

2-0 Angels Ohtani with a double, Drury and Moustakas with the RBI. Mets striking out in bunches. Later

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 06:14 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

This last month or so might have been more interesting if aliens hadn't replaced Álvarez with a pod person.

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 06:22 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Araúz Roy Staiger tribute is really classy.

MFS62 Aug 25 2023 06:34 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

For a brief, shining moment (Camelot theme playing in the background) Roy Staiger was my favorite Met. I thought he would be the answer to our perpetual third base problem. Sigh Later

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 06:40 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

I'm not sure that Ron is right. I think a lot of players would love to continue hitting and pitching, but their coaches force them to shut down one or the other.

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 06:50 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Araúz should be nicknamed "The Country Gentleman."

Frayed Knot Aug 25 2023 06:55 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

I see we're neglecting to do that hitting thing again tonight.

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 06:55 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Alonso and Ohtani are participating in the Invitational Base-on-Balls Derby Contest tonight.

Frayed Knot Aug 25 2023 07:08 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Micky Moniak, a former 1/1 draft pick (2016, Phillies) being managed by former 1/1 draft pick Phil Nevin (1992, Astros). Bet that's a first.

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 07:13 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Too close to take, DJ. There isn't much like the strike zone in sports. It's a primary goal of the game, yet it doesn't really concretely exist in physical space. It's a two-dimensional plane that folks all think they know the location of, but they all have slight disagreements. And even though we have the technology to not only define it consistently from pitch to pitch all night — and to electronically define the exact location of the baseball within the stadium — we leave the decision on whether the two intersect to some guy's judgment.

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 07:19 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

It's funny. The ball was hit toward the corner. Mendick seemingly didn't run initially. The camera lost the ball, the booth lost the ball, and then the outfielder lost the ball.

Johnny Lunchbucket Aug 25 2023 07:20 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Here we go

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 07:20 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Keep bunting, Araúz.

Frayed Knot Aug 25 2023 07:22 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Did that bunt take a bad O'Hoppe?

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 07:22 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Switch-hitter Al Monte is our only righty on the bench.

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 07:23 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

So, running isn't really Mendick's game.

Frayed Knot Aug 25 2023 07:24 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

And now the Angels are a GiDP away from getting out of the inning. oe: Or some other kind of DP too.

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 07:47 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Álvarez can turn this guy around. But ... no.

Frayed Knot Aug 25 2023 07:50 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

That, I'm afraid, was our last best chance. Alvarez now 12 for his last 90 ABs.

Frayed Knot Aug 25 2023 07:58 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

McKenzie Matthew Moniak with the 'Golden Sombrero '

Frayed Knot Aug 25 2023 08:03 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Despite being 2-1 (at least so far) this is going to be a 3+ hour game. But how nice is it to say that because it's such a rarity this year?

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 08:05 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Schanuel can hituel.

Frayed Knot Aug 25 2023 08:06 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Say good night Gracie. We simply don't do two run innings these days. Too often, we don't do two run games

Frayed Knot Aug 25 2023 08:12 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Does DJ Stewart ever Not swing for the fences?

Johnny Lunchbucket Aug 25 2023 08:14 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

It's up to big vogey

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 08:14 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Let's go, Vogelbambam!

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 08:15 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

That gets Araúz up to .122, kids!

Edgy MD Aug 25 2023 08:17 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

Plerbh.

kcmets Aug 25 2023 08:17 PM Re: IGT 08/25 Angels at Mets

4 hits, yay!

Double yay!

That bumping noise you hear is the Mets falling into last place.

She was lovely. I have a CD of old time radio show ‘Suspense' and she was one of the actors
