Wwoooooooooooooo

Excellent game!

 

[Bolts]

Good job Mets, DeGrom is awesome.

 

[David_son]

Yeah Dodgers are totally going to run over the Mets..... Man why did he even come play this series we should have just stayed home.

Hats off to the Mets, they knew they couldn't hit Clayton's curve so they swung at every fast ball that came their way. Nice strategy to swing at the first pitch a lot too.

Dodgers simply could not capitalize on offense, again. Baez could not paint the black on Wright.

Funny to see all the Kershaw hate, guess I know how LBJ fans feel now to have an amazing player get crucified every time his team loses. It's especially ridiculous here in a sport that's much more team-oriented. Hard to believe Kershaw had the hardest hit ball on DeGrom all night, another foot on that flyout and it's a 3 run homer.

Ah well, tomorrow is another game. Congrats to the Mets and their fans on winning Game 1.

Speaking only for myself, I don't hate Kershaw at all. I think he'd be a far more fulfilled human being if he drifted north and donned the black and orange.

Congrats, Mets fans.

What did he say

Jacob DeGrom on the road against NLW opponents this season including tonight:
4 starts
30 innings
14 hits
2ER(3R)
41 strikeouts

The Padres were the only team in the 4 games who he didn't strike out 10+ times, victory!

He's just annoying as all fuck. The douchey looking white dude in the middle.

That's Average

That's Average

If that's average, then the Padres starters on the road against NLW opponents were historically bad.

These Mets have a bit of 2010 Giants about them...outstanding, deep, young starting staff, just enough offense, good D, good pen...

Not every time his team loses, just when he loses and he's had some seriously shitty outings and done some serious losing when it counts the most. In the postseason.

Did the dog offense not show up, or did DeGrom, actually, show up like a boss?

a bit of the former....but a lot of the latter

That was Eric Byrnes.

He played for the As, DBacks, Rox, Os and Ms. But he is a HUGE Giants fan. I am not familiar with any other former player "analysts" who never played for a team they totally nob-polish for.

He grew up a major Giants fan, but that is still kinda weird.

Yes because I was clearly implying that the blame falls on Kershaw even in games he doesn't play, lol. He's gotten 8 runs of support in his last 29 1/3 innings in the postseason, but hey Kershaw couldn't manage to hit that 3-run homer and pitch a CGSO so he's a terrible postseason pitcher.
