If Álvarez continues the rally, we can sit Diaz down.

Maybe bringing in a 44-year-old junkballer when the game is on the line isn't the best idea.

My Little League team won a championship when I was ten with an inning like this one.

Forcing Rich Hill to face a third hitter here constitutes elder abuse.

Get a good look. This may be the last you see of Rich Hill.
Re: IGT 9/4 Mets vs Red Sox Megill for lucky 7 SNY 7:10
A productive out.

Get Rich Hill some tapioca pudding, he looks whooped.

Second night in a row that the Mets smartly padded a small lead late
Re: IGT 9/4 Mets vs Red Sox Megill for lucky 7 SNY 7:10
They brought in a guy with a WHIP near 1.500, this could still be exciting.

It took me forever to figure out that lighting effect is actually in the stadium and not something the TV people do on the screen.

Diaz's ERA since June 1 is 2.61, so though he can be a headache and has meltdowns, in the grand scheme, he's actually simmered down quite a bit since a shaky first part of the year (and, realistically, it was actually more like a shaky two-week stretch in May).

Wow. Wow. Wow.
Can this be real?
Braves won, too, unfortunately.

The odd part is seeing how his fastball consistently gets faster and his slider gets sharper as his appearances progress. It's like he doesn't trust his body when he first comes out, but by the third batter, he's letting it rip.

Magic number to clinch that Wild Card spot down to 24.

The bullpen doesn't get a lot of style points tonight (the Romanian judge was particularly harsh) but they were ultimately effective: five innings, zero runs

Sweating out how The Braves do against The Schlabotniks night by night isn't even necessary. The Mets are very much in control of their own destiny, and their remaining schedule takes them through Atlanta.

Some day, the Mets are gonna win a game and actually gain in the standings on one of the teams ahead of them.
Some day.
