I’ll puke if Kike yanks one here.
Another double play ball, bobbled, then an errant relay. Looks like two…Dodgers challenging…
And confirmed. 5-4-3. End of six…now 6-3
Goddammit Ryne, you are supposed to throw strikes.
If he yanks one here, I’ll puke.
B9…Mets lead 7-3
And the Mets even up the series 1-1
Guardians in full on dick stomping mode.
Three straight 4-0 walks? That’s ridiculous.
Disaster.
And two wild pitches that plate runs. Brutal.
Good fuckng grief…this Guardian pitcher can’t hit the fucking backstop.
Well, technically the first WP didn’t matter, because he was going to be walked in on the next pitch anyway. But this display simply sucks. And at some point these catchers need to resume using stances that allow them to do a better job of blocking pitches.
I don’t disagree about how bad catchers receive the ball these days, but when the pitch bounces in front of the plate, there’s not much you can do except throw your mitt at it and hope.
I’m pretty sure around these parts, that would get your ass kicked.
And 2 more wild pitches after a leadoff walk in the 4th inning to put a runner at 3rd no out. Mercifully gets removed after another walk. New pitcher gets 3 outs, but one was a sac fly to make it 4-0.
Dusty invented the “high five”. These guys invented the “low two”.
So they practiced that shit, until they both needed a moment… and a cigarette.
I remember seeing that and I think Kike took the other dude off guard with that “low two”.
