Best win of the year? Yeah, I think so.
Maybe tied with the Vientos game.

If this game breaks the other way, Mendoza would have some answering to do for burning the bench and having an injured Nimmo up with the game on the line.

But how about that?

His voice sounds like he's been screaming all night.

I think it was the uniforms. The Mets need to wear the classic pinstripes more often.

Great win!

All's well that ends well

So 3-3 vs the Braves this year to date. And 2-1 vs the Dodgers.
Not bad, but some better records against lesser opponents would help.

Got six big games coming up against an MLB-best Phillies squad, followed by a pair against the Marlins, currently with the worst record.

I slept through the game :-(

This is brilliant. Did you do those letters yourself? Impressive!

I wasn't feeling good about this coming down to Marte, particularly after his two early strikeouts, even though it was against a lefty, even though he had subsequently gotten a knock. He really seems to be carrying a lot out there — indeed he is, certainly. I was trying to nonetheless straighten out my attitude and trying to get myself in a place where he was exactly who I wanted, and I confess that I was kind of looking past Nimmo.

Thank you! It's been a few years now. I'm not sure where I got the lettering from. Maybe there's a Toulouse-Lautrec font somewhere that I found? I do remember deforming one of the two E's so that they wouldn't be identical. And maybe some of the other letters as well.

Toulouse-Lautrec would be pleased! And would give points to Brandon Nimmo.
