Series Thread: NY Mets @ Chi. Cubs (6/20-23)

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Good job by Wheels to wiggle out of a potential disaster in the 2nd.

Cubs had 2 on..no outs...but he shut it down.

3-0 Mets after 2.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

The Todd Father gives the Mets a 5-0 lead with a 2 run Blast in the 3rd.

Then Wheels throws another shutdown inning...w/ 2 K's.



Onto the 4th.

LGM!!!

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

McNeil again...2 out ribeye double.
(Rosario singled, Wheeler sac bunted him to 2nd)

6-0 Mets...mid 4th


edit:
Wheels tosses yet another shutdown frame.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

JD Davis reaches 2nd on a 2 base error...
Michael Conforto brings him in w/ an rbi single.

7-0 Mets

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Wilson Ramos sends a 2 run bomb over the ivy and into the LF bleachers to give the Mets a 9-0 lead in the 5th.

Very enjoyable game today.

Thought about going to one of the games in this series since the Metsies are in town. Going to catch one of their upcoming games when they come play the Sox later in the summer.

Zack is wheelin' & dealin' today.
He puts up nother scoreless inning.

Mets 9 - Cubs 0 end of the 5th.

I'm going to 2 of the 4 game series here against the Giants next month, after the all-star break.

I hear SF has the nicest park in the game.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Mets challenged the force out at 2nd call..which would've been the 3rd out...and they won the challenge.
Dom Smith is safe at 2nd....Alonso scores from 3rd.
Frazier is credited w/ a 2 out rbi single.

10-0 mid 6th.

Wow...they've scored at least 1 run in every inning so far.
Who are these guys??

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

It's definitely a real nice one...plus the food there is awesome.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Go, Wheels Go!!!

Another 1-2-3 inning.




10-0 Mets, heading to the 7th.

On another note, Dead & Company are at Citi Field tomorrow. Just saw them at Wrigley last Saturday.

yep...they're on their summer tour...

They were here a week or 2 ago...at the Shoreline amphitheater down in Mountain View in the silicon valley. I didn't go. I'm an old deadhead, ever since the mid 70's.
Been to literally hundreds of shows over the years...all around the country. 1st show was in '73. Last one was about 2 yrs ago. I go to Phil's restaurant/nite club (Terrapin Crossroads) up in Marin once in a while. There are always good jam bands playing there 7 days & nights a week.

I was going to ask if you went to the Mountain View one.

If Dead & Co does their Riviera Maya three day shindig this upcoming year, I plan on going. Told the wife, and she rolled her eyes. Said she'd sit by the pool the whole time.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Breaking News!
Mets didn't score in the 7th.

But now Wheels is in a bases loaded no outs jam in the bottom half.

 

[ChiSoxFan]

Bases loaded, only one run. Not bad.

They did back in January.

Yeah, they've done it the last couple of years. Hoping they do it in 2020.
