If you rolled up 2020 into a three hour highlight film, it would be Sunday’s loss to the Atlanta Braves.
First off, one hit. One hit while the game was competitive. (I’m not counting the final two hits with a 7-0 deficit when Mark Melancon could have been working on a knuckleball and finished off the Mets.) Rick Porcello pitches his best game of the season in an absolute must win for the team, and deserves a ton of credit for that especially with the season he’s had. He gave up a cheapie to the first row of the stands to Ronald Acuna in the 6th, but that was it in seven innings in which he struck out ten and walked two. And the Mets wasted all of it by getting one goddamned hit off of a guy who in 25 innings this year had a 7.20 ERA and a WHIP of 2.080.
Talented offense. Must win game. One hit.
The Braves know how how to build a WINNER.
ReplyDeleteThe Mets continually prove they DO NOT.
Almost over...
ReplyDeletelets face it they quit and your right we don't know how to build a winner but on the horizon is the great (I hope) Steve Cohan to right our ship because we really need help....NOW
