2016 NLWC: New York Mets vs San Francisco Giants

[777]

This is great. What a pitching match up

 

[Taro Tsujimoto]

Good news: Rivera leads off with a single.
Bad news: Loney promptly hits into a double play.

 

[John Price]

Rivera base hit

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Obvious at this point the Mets game plan is to swing early in the count.

 

[NYRFAN218]

It's almost like they figure Bumgarner is pitching until his arm falls off anyway so they're just hacking at everything.

 

[Taro Tsujimoto]

21 pitches for Bumgarner through three. FFS, Mets, take some pitches! Quit swinging at everything!

And you know it's bad when Syndergaard needed 8 pitches to retire Crawford in the second while Bumgarner hasn't even thrown 8 pitches in any full inning so far.

 

[Tecumseh]

Obvious at this point the Mets game plan is to swing early in the count.

It's a terrible game plan. They'll do nothing except pop up or ground out all night if they continue with this approach

It certainly isn't. Their game plan should've been take pitches and make him tired or get him out ASAP.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Did the picture on ESPN go out for anyone else?

My picture isn't working.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Another puzzling replay review. He is clearly safe.

OK, maybe for a like 0.0001 second he does not make contact with the bag...

 

[777]

That was essentially a pitch out @ 99mph, still couldn't throw him out.

wow that's ******** and I'm cheering against SF

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Its back now.

 

[Taro Tsujimoto]

Call on the field upheld. Wow. Inconclusive?

 

[hockeykicker]

Huh?

 

[McDeepika]

Span looked safe there.

 

[John Price]

He was safe...

 

[satbank]

That look safe to me.

 

[nyscene]

His leg popped up. Hard to overturn it.

 

[Halladay]

Biased umps.

 

[Devilsgrl35]

Did the picture on ESPN go out for anyone else?

My picture isn't working.

Happened to me too. Not like anything important happened either.

 

[Vamos Rafa]

I'll take it

 

[NYRFAN218]

Out for me. The foot came off the bag before the other leg hit the bag with the tag still applied.

 

[John Price]

Out for me. The foot came off the bag before the other leg hit the bag with the tag still applied.

Keeping him out is best for business.

 

[NYRFAN218]

Keeping him out is best for business.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

The people with nyr in their names think the call was correct.

Shocked.
