And nobody even gets the ball out of the infield.

Feel free to take away Edwin's save chance, Mark.
And that goes for the two guys behind you also.

That's too close to flip ... which doesn't mean they won't flip it.

In fairness to Garrett, his "rough outing" as Gary called it consisted of two sort hits and a fly out.

I'm having trouble keeping Reed Garrett and Sean Reid-Foley separate.
They're both so Re(ie)dy

Frayed Knot

No hits but a couple of at'em balls at 2B, an attempted steal (foul ball) and two runs scored.
Y'know, your typical slacker effort.

"Steals without a throw"
We're so used to hearing that phrase when the Mets are on defense that it's a nice switch to hear it this way for a change.

This time Bader started the AB by fishing for junk but didn't finish it that way.
Previously he swung at trash for strike 3

So here's their second bases-loaded/one-out situation of the game.
Let's see how they do with this one.

Frayed Knot

Well he's hitting about three pop-ups per day so he getting a lot of practice at waving them foul.

Frayed Knot

Two runs in, bases loaded and one out ... and then the next seven hitters go down consecutively and quietly.

And now instead of a potential blowout we have a tie.

Frayed Knot

Nice to get a lead for a change ... but that inning coulda/shoulda been better.
One more hit blows up the inning entirely, but we don't do those kinds of hits.

You don't win too often with Bogeys on 17 & 18

Two out in the 8th, no walks, 6th hit, all singles, two haven't left the infield

1) We can't win at home
2) We can't win on the road

I'm sticking around to see if the Marlins get a triple-double [runs, hits, Ks]

The bottom of the Marlins order is killing the Mets
The Mets order is killing the Mets

Christian vs Jesus
Sacrilegious to root against either guy, eh?

I'd be torn between trying to appear presidential and wanting to say, "Hey Donnie, I'll debate you any day your parole officer allows you to travel

I remember him mostly for TOOTSIE, where he played an unlikable supporting boss/boyfriend.

San Diego found a way to be a buyer (and Miami a seller) well prior to the trading deadline.

This week it was twice as they wind up 2-5 at the end of the Atlanta/Philly gauntlet.
And both of the wins were about as taut and fraught as they come.

But it's still kind of fun anyway.

I thought about maybe trying to win this month's tourney, but then I decided it would be
more fun to see how many incorrect guesses I could make in the first three moves.
