And it didn't get mentioned last night, but last night's win clinched winning more games than the 62 Mets. So, we won't be the worst team of the modern era.

Hold on tonight and we're already better than the 03 Tigers.

4 homers in a game is far more rare and far more valuable.

But triples are hard to get, especially in smaller parks like STP. Pretty much takes a weird bounce off the bricks or a misplayed ball by an outfielder.

Yea, 4 homers is tough, but I was thinking more of the feats across all sports that we give a name to, like "hitting for the cycle" or getting a "triple double" in basketball or a "hat trick" in hockey or pitching a "no hitter" or whatever, you get the picture.

And the bull pen still has to try and make it interesting.

Mother Fucker.

 

[Chewbaccer]

This ain't good. Bases loaded with nobody out.

 

[Chewbaccer]

4 run lead and you come in and walk 2 batters and give up a single. I think I know who to send down when we call up AJ Minter.

 

[Mistaken4193]

I just hope we can get out of this inning with the lead.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Goldschmidt in the on deck circle. I have a bad feeling about this.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Goldschit.....im scared

 

[Mistaken4193]

This ump is trash.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Danny Santana now 5-5 tonight.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Why didnt he go home?

 

[Chewbaccer]

Still up by two. Best case scenario after the bases were loaded with zero outs.

I'm fine with taking the sure out at first over a tag play at home. If Paul Goldschmidt represents the tying run with runners on second and third with one out, I'll take an RBI groundout in that situation every time.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Holy shit...Jace Peterson.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Why didnt he go home?

Probably should have, but that was a huge out regardless. Plus tag plays make me nervous with replay and all these swim moves runners use these days.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Honestly didn't know Jace Peterson was on the 25 man roster.

His biggest hit of the season.

 

[Edisto_Tiger]

Holy shit...Jace Peterson.

He fucking smoked that one. I think he wants to stay this time.

that's why I always liked to tag them in the face and avoid the hands.

No chance...Danny Santana and Sean Rodriguez are about to be called up and Lane Adams and Peterson will get sent down.
