[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Rosie works a walk...

Mets have the bases loaded....2 outs.

Rajai Davis is in to pinch hit for Lugo.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

YES!!!

Raj Davis clears the bases with a PH 3 run double.

WOW!!


3-0 Mets bottom 8th.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Put it in the Books.

LOL..I stepped away from watching the top of the 9th, fearing the Mets would blow it....but they won it 3-0.
Justin Wilson came in and threw a 1-2-3 no nonsense no drama 9th inning.

Big win...and a huge PH clutch AB by Raj Davis in the 8th.
Also...deGrom, Lugo & Wilson were solid on the mound.

Mets dominated the dbacks. Was hoping the Dodgers would dominate the Mets, but of course not.

You guys won tonight too...and all that's left to do now is control your own destiny. Both of our teams are still in the wild card hunt....but with only 2 weeks to go, we're gonna need the friggin cubs, brewers & phillies to start losing some more games.

Things are getting tight...and time is getting short.

edit:
at least the Phils & Nats lost....

Anything is possible.

Nice article on Pete....
As wild-card race heats up, you gotta believe ... in Pete Alonso

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Yes!

What an awesome AB by Nimmo.
10 pitches...fouled off 6 of them..before slapping a 1 out, 2 run triple down the RF line...



2-0 Mets...heading to the 3rd.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Wheels allows a leadoff double in the 3rd, but nothing else, to get that important early shutdown inning.

2-0 Mid 3rd.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Dodgers put up a run with 2 outs on a single & play at the plate.

2-1 Mets mid 4th.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Another awesome job by Wheels in the 6th.
Just like in the 3rd..he allowed a leadoff double, but he left him stranded there after throwing b2b2b K's to end the inning.

2-1 mets mid 6th.

LGM!!!

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Wheeler steps up with another amazing job of dodging around trouble....Wow!

2-1 Mets at the stretch.

LGM!!!

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Damn..Mets had a good chance to tack on in the 7th with runners at 1st & 2nd and only 1 out, but Nimmo & Rosario both K'd.

We could've used some breathing room.

Onto the 8th.
2-1 Mets

Justin Wilson coming in to start the 8th.

Great outing by Wheels tonight.
Too bad he didn't get some more run support.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Ughhh.
Wilson walks the leadoff guy...balks him to 2nd, then WP's him to 3rd.




edit:
He comes back and K's Muncie... for the 1st out.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Wilson gives up a 1 out rbi double.

Game tied 2-2.

Sheeeesh.

Bellinger gets IBB'd.


Wilson K's Seager.... 2 down.


That's it for Wilson...
Seth Lugo is coming in w/ 2 on, and 2 out.


Edit:
Lugo throws 1 pitch and gets a fly ball out.




2-2 tie...middle 8th.

Now the Amazin's have to deal w/ Kenley Jansen...



LGM!!!

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Mets go 1-2-3 in the 8th.

Heading to the 9th.

2-2 tie.
