IGT 4/23/24 NYM @ SFG Game 2

[Fman99]

Another game past my bed time. Super great.

Luis Severino vs Logan Webb, 9:45 PM first pitch

[ashie62]

The Mets must win tonight to have a shot at their sixth series win

Severino has been lights out. Let's see how he does on this road assignment

[Edgy MD]

Joey Wendle back in the lineup and Harrison Bader getting a rest, as the Mets stack the lineup with lefties.

Giants try to do the same, only not as drastically.

[G-Fafif]

Channel 11 tonight, pre-empting Action News, The Odd Couple, The Honeymooners and most of The Twilight Zone.

[Edgy MD]

Narváez not only just got the Mets first hit, it was the first hit from the catcher position since Álvarez hurt hisself.

Nice hustle.

[Edgy MD]

And nine up and nine down for Severino.

[Frayed Knot]

A low-pitch, quick moving game for a change.
Three full innings in < 40 minutes.

[Edgy MD]

Don't hit into double-plays.

[Edgy MD]

Fitty-eight pitches through four. He practically struck out Soler three times in one trip to the plate.

Great show so far, but let's get him some supportage.

[Frayed Knot]

Just now hitting the one hour mark, three batters into the bottom of the 5th.

[Edgy MD]

And now we're definitely going to need support.

[Frayed Knot]

Well that fell apart quickly.
Not that anyone hit anything very hard.

[Frayed Knot]

That inning plays out differently with a batter/more experienced LF
- McNeil seemed to deep on Concerto's opposite field bloop so a single rather than an out
- then his throw home on the ground single was too high and off-line
a good throw maybe nails the runner and even a lower one that doesn't keeps the other
runners on 1st & 2nd instead of 2nd & 3rd

[Edgy MD]

That messed-up entrance lighting is ... messed up!

[Frayed Knot]

I'm yelling "SOMEBODY COVER THE PLATE" at the TV on that foul pop-up as Narvaez, Alonso, and Severino
all converged on it near the 1B dugout.
Fortunately Lindor heard me.




Nice run-saving snag by Wendle!!

[Edgy MD]

Well, nice to see Wendle earning money with his glove.

[Edgy MD]

If rolled-over grounders were gold, I'd be a very rich man.

[Frayed Knot]

84 pitches for Logan Webb thru 7 innings.
That's a good number for 5-2/3

[Centerfield]

This team might be streaky huh.

[Centerfield]

Some really terrible baseball over the last three days.

[Edgy MD]

We have a walk in captivity!

[Edgy MD]

Lindor has done a LOT of fishin' today.

[Centerfield]

I think Keith just nailed it. This team makes no in game adjustments.

Flailing at the change up all game long.

[Frayed Knot]

Now all the team that's scored one run in the last 26 innings needs is a six run rally here in the 9th!!


Just now hitting the two hour mark as the 9th inning starts.

[Edgy MD]

Joey Wendle, looking ahead, is scheduled to be your tying run.

And against Rogers, he'd certainly be likely to bat.
