They put one of yours in the hospital, you put one of theirs in the morgue.
They lead off with a single, you lead off with a double.

[Edgy MD]

Peterson during his previous career:

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Right now Lindor and Nimmo are both hitting .244

[ashie62]

Ughhhhh

[ashie62]

Good enough

1-0

[Frayed Knot]

Cole faced six batters that inning and retired one of them.

[Edgy MD]

Weird inning when five guys reach and you get one run.

But hopefully that burns a big chunk of Cole's pitch limit as well.

[Lefty Specialist]

Alonso was out by 20 feet but with two out you send him. Ran up the pitch count nicely on Cole, too.

[Frayed Knot]

Cole faced six batters that inning and retired one of them.

And Peterson, for all his rough start, has K'd five of the ten he's faced.

[Frayed Knot]

[flawedlogic]But if they had held Pete then Vientos would have just hit a Grand Slam!!!![/flawedlogic]

[Edgy MD]

"Mike, tell us about your fight with Edgy MD."

"That guy. What a dick!"

[Frayed Knot]

Bader backpedaling is a very soothing sight, something you can't say about most outfielders.

[Frayed Knot]

Shutout thru four ... but 84 pitches to get there, or about 5-1/2 inning's worth of chucking.

[Frayed Knot]

The kid stays in the picture.

[Edgy MD]

If Alonso doesn't get thrown out at the plate, it could be 7–0.

I mean, you know, in theory.

Anyhow, the dribbler through the left side by McNibblets almost felt as gratifying as that second homer by Vientos.

[Fman99]

I love baseball

[Edgy MD]

If Alonso doesn't get thrown out at the plate, it could be 7–0.

Nimmo says, "Lemme work on that."

[Frayed Knot]

There's been a lot going on (not to mention nearly an hour and a half) for just four innings.

[Lefty Specialist]

Pounding Yankees = fun.

[Edgy MD]

TRIVIA QUESTION: Who had the most career wins of any pitcher who played for both the Mets and Yankees?

Gotta be Bartolo, right?

Sure ain't gonna be Peterson if he keeps pitching like this.

[Lefty Specialist]

Unable to get through 5 innings with a 6-0 lead = not fun.
Double play on one pitch = fun again.

[Frayed Knot]

Peterson wasn't going much past five even before the HR and b-t-b BBs ... but it still would have been nice to see.

[Edgy MD]

I'm gathering that Peterson used up too much of his Mets magic escaping the first.

[Edgy MD]

Grimace is piggybacking a child.

A human child!

[Edgy MD]

Does anybody on this Yankee team run to first?
