With the Phillies winning themselves a post season birth against us the other night, the hope is that we can kick Wheeler out most likely by virtue of a high pitch count (probably not scoring a million).
When you're hot.... Tyrone Taylor ground ball through the defense that brought Vientos home and then Acuna with a swinging bunt up the 3B line. 1-1.
Currently just happy it's a tie game against Wheeler. Top 3 coming.
Thaaaats the stuff.
Nimmo solo shot off Wheeler. 2-1.
Poor Pete, think he desperately wants to do something special in what is currently his final game at home as a Met.
Diaz to pitch the 8th against the top of the Phillies order is going to shoot my heart rate up 40 friggin points.
Schwarber down.
Turner blooped one. Harper up. Me no like.
Harper down. Turner stole 2B.
Bohm grounded out. Inning over. Alonso's last possible at AB as a Met coming up.
Iglesias base hit. WHEELER OUT.
Alonso base hit with 2 out. Still only one on.
God damn, Diaz going for a six out save.
Out number four. Two to go.
Diaz has walked two. First one stole 2B and 3B. 3B stolen on strike of Realmuto, which we t from almost SO/TO to almost tie real quick.
UP TWO ON THE BRAVES AND PHILLIES ARE DENIED THE NL EAST. WE WON 3/4 VS THE PHILLIES AND BEAT WHEELER IN THE SAME GAME.
We're doing this without three of our best. Lindor, McNeil, and Senga.
When the schedule first came out, every Met fan that looked at it saw three in ATL at the end of the year (AGAIN) and just knew.
A few years back, we went down and got swept and out of playoff contention.
At this point ATL would need to sweep us again AND win one more out of their final three. The fact that there's still a chance sucks. Off day Monday and then T/W/T are either elating or soul crushing. No in-between.
Why do I do this to myself? 😂
