[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Mets vs. Marlins | 04/01/19

Steven Matz makes his 1st start of 2019 in the opener of a 3 game set.

LGM!!!

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Yikes!
I know it's early, but fielding still seems to be this team's achilles heel. Positioning/alignments & scouting is always an issue.

Clean that mess up, guys. FFS!

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

LOL..and as I typed that ^ they turned a timely DP to get out of a jam.

Matz was relieved by Petersen w/ 2 on & 1 out in the 6th.

Fish lead it 3-2, after 6.

Only 1 of their 3 runs are earned.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Nice!

Juan Lagares ties it up 3-3 with a solo shot leading off the 7th.

Stretch time.

 

[ChiSoxFan]

Ramos with 2 hits tonight. Starting the season off well.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Familia with a solid 1-2-3 inning out of the pen.

3-3 tie heading to the 9th.

LGM!

 

[tabascojet]

alonso first hr.... its like shea south in little havana tonight

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Fuck Yeah.
Amazin's breaking out the lumber in the 9th.
Dom Smith (leadoff PH knock), Rosario (rbi single) & Alonso (3 run blast)
7-3 Mets.

Diaz on the mound to shut it down.

Or so I hope.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

WOW!

Diaz loads the bases right out of the gate...then proceeds to K the next 3 batters.

Mets win it 7-3.

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Mets bat around and put up a Fin in the 1st.
Fish pitcher threw 40 pitches.

5-0 right out if the gate.

Vargas needs to toss that proverbial shutdown frame in the bottom half.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

But of course the Marlins scored a run on Vargas.

Shutdown frame botched.



5-1 Mets after 1.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

The Mets are doing the Marlins a favor by not tacking on. Most of us know Vargas will likely give up at least a few more runs while he's out there.


5-1 Mets, heading to the home 4th.

I keep waiting for it.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Starlin Castro hits a 2 out solo dinger off Vargas in the 5th.

5-2 Mets.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

I keep waiting for it.

There's 1.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Mets lead 5-2 after 5.
Probably the last inning for Vargy?

Knobless bat McNeil is off to a good start this year
