IGT 6/12 Mets v Marins Peterson looking good 7:10

[Edgy MD]

Seems like the Mets have hit several sinking liners to the rightfielder.

[Edgy MD]

I'm digging Jazz Chisholm in center.

Mark Vientos is the hero America needs

[Centerfield]

This team is so much fun. They definitely have a run in them!

Each Mark Vientos is MLB authenticated, to make sure the Mark Vientos shipped to your home is the real deal.

C'mon McSquirel... nuts!

C'mon McSquirel.

Ugh. He's about as lively a squirrel as the ones in my neighborhood that have been smushed by vehicles.

[Frayed Knot]

Always fun to see what kind of difference 24 hours and a handful of timely hits can make.


Tuesday:

Yeah. I watched from like the 4th inning on.
I think there were two hits. Iglesias erased immediately by a double play. The other was a two out single by Marte.
Just a waste of time.

Wednesday:

This team is so much fun. They definitely have a run in them!

[Edgy MD]

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Dedniel Nuñez.

What the hell happened to Tim Anderson? He was one of the faces of MLB a few years back

[Frayed Knot]

OK so there'll be a minimum of a six run lead heading into the 9th.
I'm starting to feel at least slightly confident about the tying run
not coming to the plate in top 9 ... but I'm not ruling it out either.

[Frayed Knot]

Bader ends the game pretty much as he began it: catching a deep one while retreating and leaping.

What the hell happened to Tim Anderson? He was one of the faces of MLB a few years back

He's played better than I expected the last two days.

He had an utterly awful season last year with the White Sox. Halfway through the year, he got in an ugly fight. The way I remember it, it didn't initially seem like he was the instigator, but players across the league came out and publicly said they just assumed he had it coming to him — that he's the biggest punk in the league.

I didn't remember him as such. He seemed more or less affable. But I've watched him closely since then, and yeah, he does seam to carry himself like a jerk, even as he's seemingly playing his way out of the league.

Here we go. Anderson seems to have much better form, lands a couple early, but Ramirez holds his feet and brings home the haymaker.



Cleveland announcer Tom Hamilton, sounding a little drunk, seems to be delighted to get to call a boxing match and acquits himself like he's had experience in that department. Cameo by Noah "You Can Meet Me at the Mound" Syndergaard around 2:40.

If you don't need to see the whole match, here's the money round:

[metirish]

Ah yeah ,I remember now ,he did the HR Derby one year too I think

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Anderson was thisclose to superstardom, getting endorsement deals, rising from that "most uderrated" class when it went wrong from him.

Under 200 coming into this series but 2 well struck hits on Tuesday Night

Cast your vote!

I'm glad the Mets won. I was prepared to say something disparaging.
