Our starting pitcher deserves his first Met win, then a relaxing night's sleep.

James McCann is no longer a secret weapon. Advantage Mets.

That is a pathetic looking line up. DJ Stewart is hitting clean up? With Narvaez in the 5 spot. Quintana best pitch a gem to have a chance of getting his first win.

Well, a different approach by Alonso would certainly be better than the alternative, which would be the Mets refusing to put runners on in front of him.

Can Quintana go 9
It might take that
Pete doesn't get on much either. Team slump

McNulty either likes hitting in Baltimore or suddenly likes hitting leadoff.
Dang, Alonso worked the walk!

Pete does walk. Bases loaded
Pitching change and maybe a pinch hitter for Stewart

Mets opted not to pinch-hit a righty for Stewart, which I guess means Marte is on ice.
The other option — pinch-hitting Álvarez and putting Nimmo in the outfield — was also apparently unpalatable.

Only O runs coming on futzy defense and groundout RBIs.

Hey, we got the tying run to the plate!
No double-play opportunity (at the current time) either!

A few random Thoughts on the Game!!!!
Balls hit to 3B right now are essentially a coin flip as to whether or not they'll be turned into an out.
At least this sweep, unlike the previous one, had the advantage of hurting the Yanx which is ... something.
