NYM @ LAD rubber game....

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Mets lead it 2-1 in the top of the 8th on Nimmo's 2 run blast in the 5th off Noah.
Yacabonis, Brigham & Smith have pitched well in relief since the 4th.

I still can't believe Max was ejected before the bottom of the 4th began for "a sticky substance on his glove and hand"...which apparently was just rosin and sweat.

Scherzer ejected after umps inspect hand, glove

After being forced to change gloves the previous inning, Mets ace Max Scherzer was ejected after another check of his hand and glove for a sticky substance.

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

It's now 3-1 Mets, bottom of the 8th.
Robertson is now on the bump.

edit:
3-2 now...2 outs, 2 on.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

YES!
5-2 Mets on Canha's 2 run double.
Bottom of the 9th.
Ottavino is in now.

edit:
Ugghh
He just gave up a leadoff HR.

5-3.
