Maybe because of this, all the ball has to do is “break the plane” just like a football over the goal line for a TD. Even I can’t blame the umps for that. Looked fair to him because the ball was over the line but not touching. 🤷🏻‍♂️
I agree that the you can't blame the ump but maybe cant blame the player either. And the swat was always what I had been taught.

Just suxed as it was so close to going either way and it happens much faster than the replays we get to watch

I was never taught to swat it. I was taught to touch it. If he had done that only 1 run would have scored.

The Mets could get a better pitcher than Eickoff out of the Walmart parking lot.
 
Mets starting pitcher depth chart in July, as anticipated in April;

1) deGrom - OUT
2) Syndergaard - OUT
3) Carrasco - OUT
4) Stroman
5) Walker
6) Peterson - OUT
7) Lucchesi - OUT
8) Yamamoto - OUT
9) Gsellman - OUT

Eickhoff was penciled is as #10 at best.

No MLB team can withstand this kind of hit for long.

And the thing is as bad I-Cough is they have to buy innings cause they used 9 innings of bullpen yesterday. This is basically a throwaway game which would have been fine when we had a 5-6 game lead. But not any longer.

C'mon Scarlette. You're a Met fan. You KNOW it can ALWAYS get worse.
True that, but also a Yankee fan. So, it's been a ugly year. Grew up walking distance from Ebbets field, my old man lived and breathed the Dodgers. Got to RU, and everyone was a Yankee fan, so....
 
Well this game has certainly been interesting. McCann hits Mets fifth HR of the night. Up 9-8, top 8 still batting.
 
This is the kind of win that Bill Parcells used to call "fool's gold". A good win for sure, but not sustainable. Don't think you can hand a team six or seven runs in two innings and mash your way out of it. That happens once or twice a season. And we just had our two.

Holy crap- what a game.
we need to get our pitching staff and Lindor back ASAP but love what Nimmo and Davis have done to wake this offense up.
but after these past couple of games, almost have to send every pitcher with options down just to get a rest and bring up fresh arms for a game.
Conforto starting to look like he is going to go on one of his hot months just when we need it most.

Though, I wouldn’t expect 3 errors in a game by one player to give up so many of those runs in the first place.
