...got the Mets last night.
This guy has already polished off the Red Sox ("Boston is Back!") and Arizona ("D'backs Shine Without Stars!") this season, and now he has finally nail the Flushing Phenoms: "Is the Mets' Wild Season Careening Into the Playoffs?"
Sure looked that way, as an underflow crowd of 36,097 Mets "fans" strolled through the turnstiles. (Many thousands more were left outside...doing something else in Queens.)
Despite the (non-)playoff atmosphere, Thor the Schnor spit the bit again, and the Metsies could not break through on Kershaw, who had been hammered of late.
Aw, gee.
Well, back to it tonight, with the Mets now in 8th place in the NL, but still just 3 games out of a Wild Card slot.
Ya gotta believe! (Except that Mets fans don't.)

Anyone get injured during warmups today?
Suzyn just cracked me up. Trying to explain why the Yankees couldn't win last night, she said, here's a team that had two ten game road trips, with a very short home stand in between, and played two long games in a double-header in Detroit, then they get on a plane AND TRAVELED TO ANOTHER COUNTRY, so of course they make a mental mistake and can't get a hit for the last six innings.
Oh my aching sides...
John is also a victim of himself.
Wow, Suzyn just said Vlad Jr. Has lost a lot of weight.
He's still incredibly fat.
Wow.
I'm reposting a few I posted in real time two posts ago. Can't keep up with vthe post proliferation.
Torres having a day to forget on offense
Indeed. They're generally looking like baserunning boobs, too.
Gardy party!! Whoo
Estrada saving 'Shelas' ass
Pretty great play by Shelly, though. Throw a little wide, but that grab and pirouette was Jeteresque.
Three run Gardy party!
John is happy.
Maybin is getting a rookie strikezone.
Pharaoh looking rusty at the plate.
Dellin back tomorrow. Monty back tomorrow. Sevvy on the cusp.
We may have some pitching.
Great, now Gleyber looks hurt.
Two homers (a solo and one for three runs; career high), a double, and an incredible catch that kept the Canuk’s from scoring. How can anyone even think of the Yankees without Gardner next year?
I didn't think they should have brought him back this year. One of many times I've been wrong.
Maple gets through five. 30 pitches in first and fifth, not great.
Judge is crapola today.
Gleyber day!!
Boot hits one to Detroit!!!
Belly to belly!!
Voit, not boot. Fucking AI
John reminiscing on the Kingston Trio.
As long as he doesn't sing "One Unicorn". Charlie of the MTA is bad enough.
Jack Paar's show, too.
When did we get so bad at baserunning? This is embarrassing.
Clint in right. Uh oh.
We were never really exemplars of good base running.
JM rightly called them "boobs" for their baserunning. (heh heh, boobs)
But this... they've sucked today.
Suck...heh heh

I remember watching them on the TV. Man, that's a long time ago.
This is one of the few places I know people remember turning on the tube and waiting for it to warm up and come on.
I still have a radio that does that.
So, three days after Sancho maybe goes out for the season because he tried to steal second in a meaningless game...we have Judge try to steal second, in another meaningless game.
S-M-A-R-T.
I guess the analytics told Ma to do that.
My house here in VT has a TV. It was only used for things like the super bowl or new years eve. Rabbit ears and a 13 inch B+W screen (a little newer than tubes) Friends kids slept over one night 30 years ago. They told us the TV was broken. The last time it was turned on was new years eve. Dick Clark was on coming back from his stroke. The tube TV went into the trash when we could no longer get the replacement tubes. You could burn your hand touching the box when it was on.
Pharaoh not so rusty after all.
Yeah, as my mom said the other day, Boone is a goon.
Rufus, tubes are the best. But a tad warm.
There's a Ford in the Yankees future!!
Ford looks like such a good guy, a teddy bear. Just wanna hug him
Like to see him and Vladdie at an allyoucaneat buffet.
Dull is really dull. And slow. And shouldn't have walked a guy with a twelve run lead.
Zzzzzz
This guy is a terrible pitcher.
I've been waiting for this:
Dull is making it exciting.
In a BAD way.
After a lovely day, the Ninth Inning From Hell: Dull, relieved by Chance Adams.
Finally over. Jesus.
Platoni, I think I have the perfect walk-on music for Ford: Spinal Tap's great hit "Big Bottom - How Could I Leave This Behind?"
That's a great choice! Gonna play it on a loop
Play it at eleven.
Phew, that was close! If Chance Adams had got in that game, who knows what could've happened?
Also idiotic to have Gio out there in the ninth. Bring up Estevan, bring up Kyle Holder, and stop this shit already.
And yes, Vlad, Jr., is very fat. He looks like he should be Cecil, Jr. Or rather, Cecil, Jr., Jr.
Gardner, asked by Meredith, what he attributed his season to: "Well, um, harder balls..."
Yeah, I'll say. That's what all those PEDs will do.
Holder?
No!
No!No!No!No!No!No!No!No!No!No!No!No!
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Gardner would never say that to Suzyn!
Holder, YES. Or somebody, so that we don't have Gio in at 3B in a 13-1 game. Plus Florial, to fill in at center during these games.
It's nuts to risk guys we need in them.
Sorry Hoss,
Just saw it was *Kyle* Holder, not Jonathan. I was breaking out in hives for a few minutes.
Sorry to put you through that, Rufus. I know, we all have PTSD from that Mr. Holder—and a few others.
I saw that Tyler Clippard got into a game today, and nearly burst into hives.
Hives, locusts, hail and flooding. We've got it all here on the IIHIIF International Network.
Did somebody mention testicles a few dozen times in this thread? Nuts? Balls?
Let me tell you - Gardy would NEVER say that to Suzyn, as you all pointed out.
Gardy, being the slightly addled gentleman that he is, would say something like "Suzy, baby, my balls are so hard and shrunken that there is no worry they would every cover even half an eyelid were I to teabag you. Nothing to worry about, my dear. My season is solely due to hard work, a fear of the Almighty and a burgeoning awareness of my coming contract year."
I say - if we were to run the table - and I don't think that's possible, given our current ass-fuck pitching situation - that we THEN and only then give Gardy a victory lap season, and we do it under the stipulation that he must stop breaking things in Lord Hal's dugout. If we go home early, then Gardy gets to throw in his lot with the Rays, the Cubs, Cleveland, whoever. He can then author his memoir, titled "The Last Homegrown Yankee Sum'bitch" and we will all cry at having lost him, in between crying jags at Stanton's missed swings for the next ten years.
Okay, I should go to bed before I become lucid again. Hey, a win is a win.
