Another AMAZING Win
Everyone is talking about these last 2 comeback wins and for good reason. We have become conditioned to not believing they can do that. But enjoy the good times while they are here and now we get the Mets who, frankly, seem even worse than their actual record. Tell me we’ve got some east coast Flap representation at these games?
Christ on a bicycle! Holy shit. It an’t easy.
how did Wade handle that? He’s pretty good over there now.
Jesus. 3′ from the tie.
Wouldn’t be Doval with out a base runner not sure what the hell Yaz was doing though? Great play Estrada&Wade. And now a 1 run game geez 8
Wow. DP foiled.
Giving it away.
I swear to God. Does this team know how to teach defense in the minors?
3 outs given away already.
now that was a costly error. Perfect DP ball.
Fucking Luciano Taylor made DP to end it!! Gawd he’s worst the Fitzgerald out there.,
That error may have sealed Luciano to go back down, with Fitzgerald or Schmitt up …
OH MY FUCKING GOD!!!!!!!!!
2 hopper hit right at him Back to OF. Looks like Keith Law was right after all–he is not SS.
Jesus. This is ludicrous.
Chapman saves day bare hand pick up and throw.
FUCK Yeah! Chapman is magic.
Unfuckingreal!!!!
Chapman is astonishing. What a game this was!
What the fuck?! What a play on both ends!!!
Great play by Chapman, but that pick-up by Wade was phenomenal!!!
yes plus the first out on throw from Estrada.
Fucking cardiac kids all over again!
CHAPMAN!!!!!! BROOKS ROBINSON to close out a win along with Wade !!
Gawd my heart has stopped I need the paddles!!
Luciano is getting his hitting legs, but you really can’t have a SS that can’t convert routine double play balls. The team is starting to hit as a whole, they can afford a SS who isn’t hitting much, but sorry to say not one who is frequently puckering on late inning DPs…
Doval and Loosieano, gotta be buying Chap dinner and drinks while hanging in NY.
This is turning into the comeback cardiac roadie…
Popcorn was a must again!
What’s with Doval? I’m hankering for a 1-2-3 save close out…
Well, Doval DID have to get 6 outs. Yaz blew the flyball and Doval booted the DP.
Yes, agreed. Luciano makes the DP and game over.
But, with his stuff, he should not be having trouble getting through the 9th like the last few games. I think the pitch clock is still an issue for him…
I think the clock is an issue too. He also gets behind in the count too much. Lindor was sitting dead red after getting ahead 2-0. You can’t do that against big league hitters, especially good ones.
Melvin in tough spot. Wisely at SS tomorrow while they get updates on Ahmed? Feel for Luciano but what can they do?
ANOTHER! Crazy comebacks are so fun!
The weird thing is, it’s routine grounders Luciano is choking on. The ball in the 9th was hit hard but was an absolute tailor-made double play ball, especially with Alonso running. Game should’ve ended right there. You have to make that play in Little League let alone MLB. It’s almost like he has the yips or something.
When your glove is turned the wrong way these plays will happen.It’s definitely in his head right now for sure.
Chappie’s makin’ up for that bad start. Brilliant D at third the last week.
Wade lookin’ like JT over there…
Like I said, Fitzgerald is a butcher at SS. Now Luciano is as well. What are they doing on the farm?
Schmitt…
Guy can’t hit his weight, but as a defensive replacement absolutely.
Reds beat the Dodgers 9-6 in that dinky ballpark.
I say stick with Luciano and keep working with him. He’s a good hitter. Put a sub in for the 9th as a defensive replacement.
That’s probably the way to go.
Maybe Zum. and Wisely is here. Luciano doesn’t seem settled on footwork of how to get in proper position on ball, and his glove is wrong. He admitted the ball he misplayed before he had glove at wrong angle.
I’d rather have Ahmed than either Fitz or Schmitt for late game replacement. Let the other 2 play every day in Sac, unless you are going to demote Luciano entirely. which certainly is an option but awfully harsh.
Not sure I trust Ahmed, that throw in Philly is still fresh in my memory.
Fair enough, arm isn’t strongest. Love the glove though and I think he makes the routine plays.
Had to listen to 9th on Mets radio, sounds like the Yaz play was almost as bad as Luci’s. Another Doval adventure. And yeah, Chap gets the real save.
And Wade. Got the in between hop and just snatched it. Great play.
Just saw the replay, yeah, great job by Wade.
Catchable. He took bad angle going back to wall but never laid glove on it.

Just shy of 2 months we have finally arrived at .500, now the journey begins.
Lost in all the excitement, they’re at .500!
Early game tomorrow. Baseball for brunch on the west coast.
Incredible game and over coming tough mistakes. These guys are having some fun.
I just watched from the 8th inning on again and yeah, what a finish and what a stretch of games. Holy crap. The team is showing life after a couple of months of sleepwalking. Still a lot of work to do, but they’ve gone from boring to exciting in a couple of weeks. Crazy few games!
Dodgers lost to Reds, Yanks have hit 4 HRs off Darvish and lead 7-0 at Petco behind Rodon, and DBax down 3-0 to Marlins in 5th.
.500 never sounded so good.
Turned the game off after Bailey’s blast. I’m here now to find out if Schrodinger’s cat was able to get the save.
OK
I guess they held on. Sounds like they need a closer for Luciano.
Whoa Sharks hero Barclay Goodrow evens up series for Rangers.
Made up for his penalty that led to Panthers power play goal in 1st.
Huh didn’t see that. Good series.
Edwards laid a giant egg in the NBA game. Bad shooting, bad decisions, and just overall too passive. Tough learning experience for him.
A major league player is doing a casino commercial and MLB has no problem with that? Sports are so far down the gambling rabbit hole now that it’s pretty ridiculous.
Marlins shut out DBax and beat Zac Gallen 3-0 on road. If Yanks hold on to 7-0 lead in 8th Giants will be tied with Padres for 2nd NL West.
After the Padres lose tonight, the Giants will be tied with them for the last playoff spot. It’s always fun to be in the playoff conversation.
