The good part with a doubleheader you get the immediate opportunity to win a game and push the game one suckitude to the back

The bottom four of that lineup looks like they've waved the white flag.
Couldn't they at least DH Alvarez, their hottest hitter?

If they have to pull Narvaez for any reason, they'd have to put Alvarez in at catcher and lose the DH. Could be a risk worth taking, but I can see Mendoza's reasoning.

Down 1-0 in the 4th and they don't have a hit.
They need a spark.

The batting averages of our first two hitters add up to .073.

Also, every other mlb.tv commercial featuring Derek Jeter calling himself "The Captain" does not bring out my charitable side.

It's like a nightmare that won't end. I keep thinking, "They'll definitely win the next one." Then, they don't! C'mon, Mets! Get this one!

In 2002 the Tigers fired Phil Garner after starting 0-6

In 2018 the Reds fired Bryan Price after starting 3-15

They also fired Cal Sr as manager after 6 games

I'd like to thank our old buddy Mark Canha for pulling up and taking that flare on a hop.

Of course, it was Harrison Bader who "broke up" the no-hitter. (Thank you, Mark)
