4/21
Mets Friday Lineup @ Arizona (Gallen)

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Final: Mets 6 -- DBacks 5...in 10.

Mets were cruising through most of the game until it got interesting in the late innings, but then went on to win it 6-5 in 10.
Marte had the game winning rbi single thanks to an overturned out call challenge by Buck in the top of the 10th.
Diaz got the vulture win...and Lugo got the save.

Pete had 2 rbi's in the game.....Lindor had 1.
McCann hit a 2 run blast in the 7th to give NY a 5-2 lead.

May gave up a 2 run HR in the bottom of the 8th to get Zona within 1, then Diaz allowed a solo HR with 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th sending it to extras.
I think jet lag kicked in by the 8th for the Mets....but they played through it and came away with a win.

The Wrap/Recap....

Marte's hustle secures Mets' win in extras

PHOENIX -- Starling Marte hit a chopper to third base, quickly dropped his bat and bolted down the first-base line. He didn’t just run fast. He reached an elite sprint speed -- 30.2 feet per second, the fastest by any Mets player tracked by Statcast this season. He had to

Up Next....

RHP Humberto Castellanos (0-0, 2.57 ERA) starts for Arizona on Saturday night.
New York hasn't settled on a starter, but RHP Trevor Williams (0-1, 0.00) is a possibility.

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

He absolutely demolished that ball. 453 ft.
The longest HR of his career.

Mets Saturday Lineup @ Arizona ( Castellanos)

* There was a change....It's now: Pete at 1B....and Dom is the DH

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Ummm.
This Trevor Williams dude, isn't very good...he's already at 50 pitches...
But I guess he'll be sent to Syracuse or Binghamton after this game.
It's early..... the Dbacks lead 3-0 in the 2nd.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Dude couldn't get out of the 3rd.
Reid-Foley takes over with a runner on 2B and no outs.

And now he walks his 1st batter....2 on/no outs.

4-0 now....

NBA playoffs here I come....lol

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Cano shouldn't be in the lineup as much as he has been.
Unless he's exclusively the DH, or a PH ....he's just a liability on the base paths and on defense at this point.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Stretch time in the desert....Mets trail 5-2.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Mets drop the middle game...5-2.
Rubber game on Sunday.
