The Time has Come for a Post-Season IGT, NYM@MIL, 2024-10-01

[Cowtipper]

Three outs left!

[Fman99]

Butto throwing darts and Brewers hitters rolling over real nice like. Three more outs to get

[Edgy MD]

I'm not watching right now but noticed a prominent fan rocking a push-up bra back in the prior Milwaukee series. Is her name Amy?

Yes, that's Amy.

I'd let Butto go three today if he can.

Is that all she’s wearing?

No, but she definitely has worked out an understanding with gravity.

[Lefty Specialist]

Fasten your seat belts!

[Fman99]

Stanek on for the 9th. Did we really need to pull Butto? He was dealing

[Bob Alpacadaca]

That’s one!

[Lefty Specialist]

One out away!

[Bob Alpacadaca]

Careful, Pete!

[kcmets]

Crane Beer and brats for everyone! I'm buying.

(3 beer limit, I ain't Mr. Rockefeller plus it's a work night)

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Stanek trade finally paying dividends

[Cowtipper]

Mets win!

Last time the Mets won their first playoff game of a postseason, they went to the World Series!

[Lefty Specialist]

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Bob Alpacadaca]

Put it in the books!

[Fman99]

One win in the books. Win tomorrow and earn two days off.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Don't call him Frankie!

[ashie62]

Sweep!

[whippoorwill]

Yes, that's Amy.

I'd let Butto go three today if he can.

Is that all she’s wearing?

No, but she definitely has worked out an understanding with gravity.

Hahaha! I just wondered because I saw a girl with a cute figure in the stands with a brew crew shirt and wondered if it was her

[Centerfield]

What a great game. Kept battling back. I wasn’t even distraught when they went down 4-3. Is this what it feels like to believe?

Jomboy breaks down the aftermath of Jesse Winker’s triple: https://x.com/jomboy_/status/1841272845147529505?s=61

[Gwreck]

Great lipreading. But he, like the ESPN announcers, seemed to totally forget that the Brewers intentionally hit Winker earlier this weekend. Why exactly they did that is still unclear.

[bmfc1]

I don’t think this one is going to win the Derby:

Wow, that's Zvonirrific.

Turns out that Winkie also had his back seize up during the earlier Milwaukee series, and that's what has kept him out of the lineup.

Backs in the fall.

[Centerfield]

Thinking back to that 5th inning. If Chourio makes the routine play instead of the outstanding play, Marte ties the game but maybe we don't score 5. The hustle by both Iglesias and Taylor on that play. It's very possible we don't score any runs that inning. All those ground balls that found holes. The sun was definitely shining on us this game.

And great job by Mendy. I said at the time I might have pulled Severino after the Mets scored, but Mendy made the right call. I also wasn't sure about pinch-hitting JD Martinez in that big spot. I feel like he's not right yet. But Mendy made those calls, and man did they work out.

I can say for sure that I wouldn't have pulled Peralta. That guy was cruising. Can you imagine?

Also, it's nice to be the team that doesn't have the choking stigma attached to them. As a Brewer/Brewer fan, you have to be thinking "not again".

[Benjamin Grimm]

As I was reflecting on the game, two things were at the forefront:

That infield hit by Iglesias. And how Severino turned things around. It looked like it was going to be just like Max Scherzer in Game One two years ago, but Luis got his shit together and ended up with a quality start and a well-deserved win.
