Now that's a closer right there.

40-43 save opps. Is there a jealous smilie?


edit: hey we have life...

 

[LHG]

Why give up an out in the 9th to advance the runner when he isn't the tying run?

 

[shrksfn9192]

My guess is Peavy.

Unfortunately, that seems about right. Hoping for someone, anyone else, though.

Makes no sense to me at all, unless Span tried this on his own. #brainfart

Who are they going to send down to make room for someone else?

 

[Stokes1931]

Nunez could earn a ton of goodwill if he parked one in the cove right now.

edit: or he could strike out on three pitches

 

[1phlapdown]

crap

Whoever's decision, it doesn't seem too smart.

He parked himself on the bench instead.

Should be an early bullpen game then.

Post-ASB

6-7 when scoring 1st

5-16 when not scoring 1st

Almost no ability to make a comeback in the 2nd half

Up 1.5 on STL, 3 on MIA, 4.5 on PIT, and 6 on NYM. Three straight Sundays of tough losses.

I told my co-worker, who's a big Mets fan, that I would be happy to split the series. Now, I'm kind of disappointed since we won the first two games.

Giants should have taken the series after winning the first two. Yesterday's poorly pitched game was the key to give the Mets some life and allow them to get the split.

I was not being sarcastic. It's a great game. Two pitchers dealing. One mistake.

It was a great game. But our 10-7 win was way better, and way more fun.

It was a preferred result, but IMO much less fun.

 

[Robotech]

Any word on if they are using this day off to skip the 5th starter and go with Bum, Cueto, and Moore in LA?

If they don't they are being stupid.

Edit: ok I looked, they aren't being stupid

Definitely the right decision since each game against the Dodgers is practically worth 2 games.

I agree, but it's not fun for people who want shorter games.
