Mets @ Astros June 21, 2023

[austro (Mark)]

How the fuck did Marte hit that pitch?

[Col.SphinxDrummond]

At his ankles and hit it hard.

[austro (Mark)]

And to the LCF gap, rather than down the line. Crazy.

[Col.SphinxDrummond]

Javier isn’t himself today.

[DJ.Drummond (Older but Improved)]

I’m sure it will buff out …

[Doyce7 (Doyce Kirkland)]

What a weird fucking game so far

[austro (Mark)]

After all of the traffic and pitches, only being down one is a bit of a miracle.

[Col.SphinxDrummond]

@HudsonHawk

So correct me if I’m wrong, Javier has given up 2 hits, four walks, and a HBP. While recording four outs.

Now 3 H, 3 R, 4 BB, 1 HBP and 6 outs.

[DJ.Drummond (Older but Improved)]

Tying run on 1st 1 out, McCormick at the plate .

[DJ.Drummond (Older but Improved)]

Loaded the bases but got nothing. Argh

[HudsonHawk]

I don’t know…I still have the bases loaded…two outs…

[DJ.Drummond (Older but Improved)]

Dubon lined out, Javier walked the lead-off man in the top of the 3rd (his 5th walk)

[HudsonHawk]

what the fuck is happening…Sparks is in super quiet, like he’s at a funeral, mode

[DJ.Drummond (Older but Improved)]

Bad news, Javier has thrown 34 balls so far. Good news, he got a strike out so it’s one on, one out.

[DJ.Drummond (Older but Improved)]

Pham just stole 2nd

[DJ.Drummond (Older but Improved)]

The first 3 batters all saw 2 balls and one strike in the first three pitches.

[Knoxbanedoodle (Devin Walsh)]

Keith Hernandez is groaning about how bad Onora’s strike zone has been for Javier.

[DJ.Drummond (Older but Improved)]

Mets have 4 runs on 4 hits and 5 walks.

[Knoxbanedoodle (Devin Walsh)]

Not Javier’s day.

Put it behind you, Cristian.

[DJ.Drummond (Older but Improved)]

OK, so we have 1 out, Met on 2nd, 4-2 Forces of Darkness.

Get out of the top and get the bats going, Astros.
