NY Mets -- October 2022 (*also 9/30)

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

McNeil is now batting .327 after that 2 out double in the 1st.


Would be awesome for him to win the NL batting title.
Hope he gets it.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Nimmo!
2 run double.
2-0 Mets in the 2nd.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

After a Canha rbi sac fly (just missed hitting a GS) in the 3rd...and a Nimmo solo shot in the 4th, the Mets took a 4-0 lead into the 5th..but Carrasco ran out of gas and gave up a 2 run dinger, Buck yanked him and brought in Drew Smith...who kept it at at 4-2 thanks to an inning ending GIDP.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Dub #99 is in the books.
Would be nice to get that C-Note in the nightcap.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Game 2 lineup....

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Nimmo, Frankie & Jeff.
Right out of the gate.
Back to back to back jacks.
3-0 Mets in the 1st.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Canha's sac fly rbi makes it 4-0.
LG's rbi double makes it 5-0...still only 1 out...still in the 1st.

Nats go to the pen.

edit:
After McCann K'd....Nimmo strokes a 2 out, 2 run single to left.....
Mets bat around...Lindor grounds out to end it.

7-0 Mets.
Onto the 2nd inning.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Win #100 is in the books.




Here's the 8th run of the game.
#1 for Alvarez...

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Mets get the sweep....4-2 & 8-0.

'Hot at the right time': McNeil closing in on NL batting title

NEW YORK -- Certain awards suit certain players. For years, Jacob deGrom pined for a Cy Young Award plaque; to see him take home two in a row in 2018-19 seemed only natural. When Pete Alonso won the Major League home run crown in 2019, that tracked.

Up Next....

The Mets will play their final 2022 regular season game on Wednesday afternoon against the Nationals–the same team they opened the season against. There has not been a confirmed starting pitcher for New York, but with Megill getting work in the night cap, and no playoff seeding to play for, signs point to Trevor Williams to get the nod. Erick Fedde will take the hill for the Nationals.
The Wild Card round will begin on Friday, with the Mets hosting the San Diego Padres in the best of 3 series.

* Freeman is 1 for 1 so far today....and is now hitting .323
McNeil, not in today's lineup, is at .326

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Uh oh..Freeman is now 2 for 2 and is at .325



Also...



And...

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Freddie Freeman flied out in the 5th...and is now at .324
Looks like that could be the Batting Crown for the .326 hitting Jeff McNeil...(who will still sit for tonight's game)

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Mychal Givens tossed a scoreless inning to open things.

Mark Canha went deep for a 3 run job in the 1st.

3-0 Mets.

Trevor Williams is now on the bump for NY to begin the 2nd.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Mets loaded the bags in the 2nd.
Lindor's double cleared them.
6-0 Mets.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Freeman hit a HR...and will finish 3 for 4 on the day with a .325 avg.
LA leads it 6-1 in the 9th.
Kudos to the Flying Squirrel (.326) on his NL batting title....and it was close.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Damn.....even McCann hit a 3 run blast.
It's 9-0 Mets heading to the 4th.
Save some of that for Friday, fellas.
