IGT 6/15 Pursue the Pennant again Mets Friars 4:10 Quintana

I like Martinez finding a slot in right center.

He needs to plant a flag out there.

JD Martinez was a good signing.

Another replay with JDM

OMG, they're wearing those uniforms again!!

Yes, but this time they may actually win while wearing them.

I thought Pete's ball might get out

Nice to see him crush that double

[kcmets]

Yes, but this time they may actually win while wearing them.

Let's not get crazy, it's only the 7th inning still.

[Edgy MD]

McNeil dinking it into left is OK by me.

That's your game, man. LEAN into it.

[Edgy MD]

Let's hear it for lefties serving it the other way.

[Frayed Knot]

Yes, but this time they may actually win while wearing them.

Let's not get crazy, it's only the 7th inning still.

Well now it's a four run lead with only three outs to get. There's no way we could blo ...
OK, you're right. It's a coin flip.

[kcmets]

Book-a-doodles!

Mets are only 2 games out of the Wild Card, but they still need to pass seven teams.

The good news is that there's no imminent danger of anyone passing the Mets. They're 8 games ahead of the next team, the Rockies.

The other good news is it's June 15th!!

Yup. And they don't need to pass 'em all at once.

With the win, the Mets gain (naturally) on the Padres (who hold the second Wild Card spot), the Cards (who hold the last-seat-on-the-lifeboat third Wild Card spot), the Reds, and the Giant. They finish the evening with a single game of three different teams — Pittsburgh, Chicago, and San Francisco. May all three of them sleep uneasily.

The Mets currently hold the coveted "Hottest Team in the League" title.

Had a 6 PM gig a bit out of town, so I listened to the first 3 innings at home (because I don't get WPIX because fuck WPIX) and then in the vehicle on XM. Based on how those innings went I was not confident. My mother in law attended my gig and gave me Mets updates as I was playing.

[Cowtipper]

Just watched this one. A high-quality, clean win. Martinez is good.
