Ballgame. Not likely to get 1 run against deGram and it’s gonna be called early because of the rain most likely

Probably got another at bat or two before the rain shows up, but once it gets here the game is over, and deGram will pitch a complete game.

Well...

Shows what I know! Just keep it tied please

Horrible idea (unless we're on defense)

 

[enisthemenace]

I will say, deGrom is really, really impressive. Guy basically has a rise ball.

I was really hoping for him before the trade deadline.

I was really hoping for him before the trade deadline.

Me too, but was worried about what we'd have to give up to get him.

 

[BigJCy]

Radar looks BAD. Going to have to end this one quick or probably going to have to resume the game tomorrow I suspect.

Happ, Russell, and a minor leaguer would have been OK to me.

 

[enisthemenace]

Why even start the inning?

 

[CyForPresident]

Yea, starting that inning was ********.

I’ll take finishing this tomorrow. Outlasting deGrom is a win itself

 

[chuckd4735]

Why even start the inning?

Yeah that was dumb.

 

[chuckd4735]

Actually stupid that that are just not calling the inevitable. Let's the players go home/back to the hotel to get ready for tomorrow.

 

[cycart]

FLY THE W! Great way to start the day, let's win 2!

 

[CycloneErik]

Welcome to Double Win Day!

 

[CycloneErik]

Rough start, but plenty of time.

 

[CyForPresident]

Vargas ain’t deGrom.

This is what happens when you don't lead off with Murph.
