Exact same situation in the bottom of the 9th with Yadier Molina - a single and lifted for a pinch runner. Cards are still alive with 1st and 3rd and two outs.
Phils win. Home teams are only 3-5 in the wild card round, with one more game tomorrow at Citi Field.
I'm a Yankees fan, but I wanted to wish all the Mets fans here good luck to them and their team tonight.
Bassitt looked cool, calm, and collected in the first inning, but his yips seem to have reappeared in the second. He is showing no sign of being able to put people away here. He needs to be on a very short leash tonight.
This is back2back high pressured games that he looks afraid. It why I thought the Max game was so important. Wanted Bassitt for game two with Jacob game 3 had it came to that. Hopefully he calms down!
Anybody think that this game is going to turn out well? I certainly don't. It looks exactly like all of the other bad games in September/October.
4 pitch walk to Kim figure what was coming next. 3 Runs now seems like a tall mountain to climb the way the offense looks now.
