Things not going as planned, but it's still early...

[Edgy MD]

These were supposed to be this year's version of black unis but Fanatics and Nike couldn't deliver on time

Should've stuck with that.

[Edgy MD]

Looks like the black alternative of the unis worn by Gary Carter's Fluorescent Mets teammates.

[Frayed Knot]

No chance of that those two missed outs coming back to bite us, eh?

[Edgy MD]

A second and possibly third missed out on the next play.

And Gary keeps saying the uni looks great on TV.

[kcmets]

Oh Geez, E6!

[Edgy MD]

Seeing how far the throw beat d'Arnaud by on the double-play, I'm thinking that maybe Baty might have been able to go for three.

[Edgy MD]

Quintana had to earn about six outs that inning.

[Frayed Knot]

I can't believe we slid out of that hole.
The downside is that Quintana's pitch count is currently up to 147 thru 4 IPs

[Centerfield]

We’re never going to score again.

We’re never going to score again.

Basically where I am at the present time.

[Frayed Knot]

Starting with his age 34 season in 2018, Charlie Morton has made 30 starts (HOU), 33 starts, 9 starts (pandemic year) both for TBR,
and then with the Braves 33 (led the lg), 31, 30. Tonight is his 7th of this year.
iow, he's made every single fuckin' start from age 34 thru 40! while pitching to a 3.54 ERA (21% better than lg average).

[Frayed Knot]

Two hits thru six, one of which left the infield.
But at least we only have seven strikeouts vs one walk.

[Centerfield]

I wonder if we’ll even get another hit.

And the Mets look like they've never seen him before. You think they would have learned how to hit him by now.

Lindoboom!!

1) Not the point
2) Morton's ERA vs the Mets for his career is only marginally better than his overall mark

[kcmets]

Baty Ball!!

[Frayed Knot]

Two out, a three run lead, and Nimmo's arm, I would have sent Riley.

Wow!

[Frayed Knot]

I may be off by a couple on that count.




But, hey, we looked good that inning, huh?

[Centerfield]

Baty Ball!!

What did he do?

[Frayed Knot]

Caught a foul pop while flopping onto the 3B tarp.

[Centerfield]

Caught a foul pop while flopping onto the 3B tarp.

Thanks. Just saw the highlight.

[Centerfield]

Down 3. First pitch swinging.
