Mets Tuesday Lineup @ Cincinnati (Lodolo)

I do hope this HP ump gives that high strike call to Max too.
He called a few for strikes that were obviously up and out of the zone..(on Lindor & Pete)

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Max tosses a 1-2-3 1st. (K, and 2 ground outs...on 9 pitches)

LGM!

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Not sure why Buck has JD in to DH...when Dom has been swinging the bat a lot better lately.
Only thing I can think of is the righty vs lefty matchup...which didn't help Davis at all in the 2nd.

Mets had 2nd & 3rd w/ 1 out.....but JD whiffed, & McCann grounded out.

0-0 mid 2nd.

Also...looks like we won't get any help from St. Louis tonight.
Braves 5 - Cards 1, in the 2nd.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Still no score, mid 4th.
JD has 4 LOB now.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Max with 2 more K's...he now has 7 thru 4 innings...and has thrown 57 pitches.
I believe he's on a pitch count of 75-85.

Let's give him some run support in the 5th.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Still scoreless mid 5th.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Max fans the side 1-2-3 in the 5th.
10 K's now...on 70 pitches.



Onto the 6th.

LFGM!

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Yikes.
The Mets bats have gone into fustercluckery mode.

Need someone's bat to get going. Lindor first pitch pop up last inning sums up our hitting of late.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

0-0 end of 6.
Max now w/ 11 K's....and is at 79 pitches.
That was likely his last frame tonight.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Need someone's bat to get going. Lindor first pitch pop up last inning sums up our hitting of late.

Yep...but that AB by McNeil last inning was terrible too.
Nimmo hasn't reached base either.

And of course as I'm typing this...JD Davis whiffs....lol

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

We're not gonna get any help from St. Louis either....

Braves 7 - Cards 1 in the 7th.


Mets managed to get b2b 2out singles....but Lindor popped up in foul ground to end it.



Stretch time in Cincy.
0-0....for now.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Joely Rodriquez is now on the bump for NY.

edit:
JRod sets them down in order ...w/ 2 K's.

Onto the 8th.

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Hitting coach needs to see what's up with Lindor and these pop ups.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Tommy Hunter now pitching.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Ughhhh.....

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Really lucky to get out of that 8th

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

I'm convinced these guys went out and partied last night after the win....and probably overdid it.

Or maybe the start of the game rain delay threw them off??
