Let's play two! The Dodgers have "tweaked" their rotation to match Tyler Glasnow against Tylor Megill just be funny and give the announcers something to talk about. Glasnow pitched 8 shutout innings against the Mets on April 21st but the Dodgers have lost 5 straight and the Mets have won one straight, so I'm not worried. LAD is a 1 1/2 run favorite and the O/U is 8 1/2 runs.

They could have added a MI to give Lindor a break.

Currently has a 1.38 ERA and 13.8 K/9 at Triple-A.

I wish they could shoehorn Vientos into this against the righty but without a roster change Vientos will sit in these games more often than not I guess

It's a third straight start for Baty, but in a doubleheader, they were each likely to get one of the two games under any circumstances.

I certainly look forward to the first lineup that includes both of their names.

Among a long list of other stuff which hasn't gone right so far this year, yesterday's game was our
sixth rainout of the season, a season which started exactly two months ago today ... with a rainout!

Tuesday Night Mets Club plans to assemble in Section 514 by the 7th inning of Game 1

Look at that crowd! I feel like there are at least two or three hundred!

Megill banks the first with only 14 pitches and one guy reaching.

Don't want to make too much of that but one thing I learned the last Dodger series is that clearing the first four batters with no runs is no small thing.

Stadium will fill

Megill fans Ohtani

Maybe I can get someone else to call him Tylord. Maybe one day

One more problem with putting your wall right up against a wall.

That ball was caught, but bounced out as his glove had no give as it hit the black back wall.

The glove hit the wall not the ball

Crisp game

GARY: Speaking of retirements, we don't have Angel Hernandez to kick around anymore.

RON: We didn't really kick him around, did we?

GARY: Well, everybody did.

KEITH: Is he gonna make a Checkers speech?

The Mets booth is listing all the Dodger pitchers on the Injured List, but they aren't even mentioning the missing guy who is still active as a DH.

Megilly has the induce-a-slow-roller-down-the-first-base-line pitch working nicely, especially for Ohtani.

Megillicuddy with 86 pitches through six.

Send. Him. Back. Out.

He. Is. Back. Out!!

Megllicuddy doesn't reek

And he has his best inning, striking out the side in order.

Now the looming plotline is how the Mets plan to finish this game.
