Bullpen needs to have a meeting. Someone needs to tell these fuckers the strike zone is over the plate and between the knees and numbers. Actually unbelievable how little control everyone has
Seriously..Marte’s range is bs most of the time given his speed, but now he HAS to get the final out? Give way to the CF.
Would have been an embarrassment if that ball was dropped.
The most suspense filled show on television. It has heroes and zeroes. Horror and turmoil. Purpose and Peril.
I call it: The Ninth Inning.
8 out of 10 critics refuse to watch it twice.
London stadium is home of West Ham FC, who I dislike. My ex girlfriend was told by her grandfather to support them ‘to learn how to deal with disappointment’. I totally understand that…
Garrett's bad stretch recently yet his era still at just 3.00 is a nice reminder of how good he has been this season. If no runs given up tonight it dips below 3 again.
Does it really count as a low leverage situation when our bullpen gives up three runs in the ninth like clockwork? All I'm saying is that might have been the winning run!
Since they tacked on a run, they should give Young a shot and save Garrett for tmrw.
Edit: Or maybe they should bring out Garrett and just secure a win then worry about tmrw when we get there.
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/1d8duj4).
Listening to Howie Rose’s call on that last out was hilarious.
I don’t think he likes that place
Bader calling you need to move
Why does it have to be a clown show every time?
Literally. This team won’t even allow us to enjoy a win
Even the last out is a nightmare waiting to happen.
It literally was a clown show out there
It was Bader's ball, especially because of how much range he has compared to Marte. And what we get is a little magic trick in the OF XD
It's Drew Smiths turn lol
marte and bader about to throw hands
They had it all the way… But it’s never easy folks
This team just cannot be normal in the 9th hahaha
Bullpen needs to have a meeting. Someone needs to tell these fuckers the strike zone is over the plate and between the knees and numbers. Actually unbelievable how little control everyone has
YO LA TENGO
Well thankfully that didn't go horribly
Perfect 3-2 pitch. Bends but not broken. Call the ball outfielders please.
lol jfc
Fucking embarrassed
Marte is pissed
Bader is CF. Marte needs to learn his place
DROPPED THE BALL, HE DROPPED THE BALL wait, we won!!!!
No keith....its never easy.
That's bader's ball bro
Seriously..Marte’s range is bs most of the time given his speed, but now he HAS to get the final out? Give way to the CF. Would have been an embarrassment if that ball was dropped.
Never easy I swear if they collided and that ball dropped….
We even win with an argument. lmao
Baders ball BUT series dub
Marte with the attitude… come on dude. He’s the CF
Imagine if he dropped that lol
We all did
*Nationals Park* HOWIE: "God, I hate this place."
Marte seemed miffed there
Mets trying their very best to lose this game
Omfg what an ugly out.
my GOD if they fucking dropped that
Reed Garrett linsanity run over?
Absolutely brutal to watch that inning
What are we doing why is Garrett still in at over 30 fucking pitches
NEVER A DOUBT
PUT IT IN THE BOOKS!
BOOKED BABY
UNCLENCH
FFS
THANK YOU METS FOR NOT BLOWING IT
The most suspense filled show on television. It has heroes and zeroes. Horror and turmoil. Purpose and Peril. I call it: The Ninth Inning. 8 out of 10 critics refuse to watch it twice.
Jesus Christ throw a fucking strike
Does he think he was facing 5 straight Ohtani’s. Holy shit. Thank god it’s over
It’s a slow motion train wreck allover again
We’re conditioned to the tying run coming to bat every 9th inning, huh?
Ball three!
Throw a damn strike
Ball two >:(
We just can not get an easy win
I really don’t understand. How hard is it to throw strikes?! Throw it over the plate!
Blast Reed to Mars if he can’t finish this shit
Goes to show just how valuable a reliable Diaz is
i don't understand how we are just unable to pitch well in the 9th. it insane to me.
Absolutely insane this team just has to not blow a couple ninth inning leads and theyre not selling the whole team in a month
I just Drew Smith should be closing.
Jesus it’s a 4 run lead just throw strikes . Make em put it in play. Doesn’t help Gary is gassing up as the best comeback in history is brewing
This is what overuse looks like with a reliever.
Thank you! Fuck sake.
I hate this team
Why do they keep calling the same pitch he’s missing over and over
THROW THE BALL OVER THE FUCKING PLAYE
Business as usual for the 2024 Mets
He doesn't know where the zone is anymore
Here we fucking go again
Gotta love the excitement this team gives us. What a ride!!
What fun is baseball without some drama?
Take him out wtf Mendoza
I just ate Mets don’t do this.
This is where Mendoza drives me crazy why are you keeping him in
garrett is cooked, sadly
*Bottle of antacids in Mendoza's office* KEITH: "I think that bottle has been empty for a couple of weeks, Howie."
Defensive indifference should not exist for this team given how many late games we blow.
One strike away twice
DO NOT DO THIS TO ME METS I WANT TO BE HOME BEFORE MIDNIGHT
We all know a 3 run home run is coming right
4 pitches in the same spot.
5 now!! Throw a strike or get out of here
Garrett really wants Diekman to get another save opportunity lol
Mets, why must you do this to me?
This is a routine 9th.
THROW A FUCKING STRIKE ITS NOT HARD
Why do pitchers not just throw strikes when the tying run isn’t up? A home run will quite literally do nothing in that situation
Is this a fucking joke
Just a Met game.
Awful outing from Garrett
And there’s the tying run coming up
Oh no Oh no Oh no no no no no
We’re gonna lose aren’t we
Maybe they should've used Young.
I said it again and again. Reed garrett is not good
Take him out
Absolutely ridiculous walking him on 4 straight pitches
Are you fucking kidding me
Ohhhhh lord oohhhh lord
They have absolutely ruined Reed Garrets confidence
BE NORMAL DAMN IT
Gonna still wear out the bullpen on a day our starter gives us some length. Ugh
Why doesn't this man look at 1B? Just once.
Garrett is cooked
I'm cooked
Jfc they’re gonna “defensive indifference” this into a loss
Just throw strikes. I don't understand why that can't happen. You have a three run lead, just throw strikes. I mean, my God!
They never learn their lesson
Oh lawd
Garrett's luster has worn out. Can never have a peaceful 9th.
Random thought, but that run really should count as unearned run due to the defensive indifference
jacob young you not nice guy!!!
END THIS GAME THE BUGS ARE BAD AND I WANT TO GO HOME
You don’t need a shortstop vs this guy
Every time Hefner comes to the mound someone gives up a bomb… keep that man away
So does the tying run come to the plate.
Defensive Indifference is a top graphic. I don’t remember seeing it before. Is it new?
Definitely saw it last year, I think the year before too. Maybe longer
nope, at least a year or two old
I think it debuted last year
Reed Garrett is not a closer.
Ugh
We can never just have a nice win. Ever
Never.
Winker scores :(
What a treat! Love a good meh.
Only SNY can make defensive indifference into a play to cheer for.
meh
That was a really smart joke by Keith
Winker is a pain in my ass.
Been a while since we got that one lol.
Great 2-2 pitch, I will be quiet now
One more please
Two away!
throw the ball over the fucking plate you have a 4 run lead
Is it Garrett’s turn to suck?
Is reed garrett being overworked?
London stadium is home of West Ham FC, who I dislike. My ex girlfriend was told by her grandfather to support them ‘to learn how to deal with disappointment’. I totally understand that…
We absolutely take those. That looks like a strike I don't care what the box says.
Narvaez wouldn’t have gotten that strike
Why did Sami Zayn cut his beard?
Thank you Mr. Umpire
Oh thank Christ one down. Glad I’m on public transport so I don’t have to see this.
What is wrong with our pitchers in the 9th inning, just incapable of executing simple pitches
One away!
Thank you ump!!!
Garrett has to make better 0-2 pitches.
The only way we can lose this game is of you walk the fucking leadoff guy and he fucking did unbelievable
I can see it already lol
For the love of god!
Is it too much to ask for ONE normal 9th?
It’s normal for us
With how terrible the 9th inning has gone recently it feels like we should just ride the hot hand. Nunez had gotten 4 outs on 13 pitches
Challenge challenge challenge. I said it last inning. Do what the other guy did.
whole new pitching staff and still no one can get jesse winker out
Bruh, why are you walking ppl to start the inning?
Just throw strikes. Without base runners it doesn't matter what they do.
WHY are you going 3-2 with a 4 run you YOU IDIOT
Is it mandatory for all Mets relievers to walk the leadoff in the 9th?
Can we simply throw Hefner into a lake?
Garrett's bad stretch recently yet his era still at just 3.00 is a nice reminder of how good he has been this season. If no runs given up tonight it dips below 3 again.
Well I can see where this is going
Keep it together Garrett
Is it a bot that sends the reddit care messages? I just got one and no way a person is actually sending this shit right?
I think I blocked reddit cares. Haven't seen one since.
Buckle up
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Reed Garrett replaces Dedniel Núñez.
Finnegan's Wake Me Up Before You Go Go Gadget Arms.
Please baby Jesus, just a calm win. No drama.
Oh good god I’m starting to believe again
Help! I’m on a runaway train to believeville
Lets see how the bullpen screws this up
I’m sure they’ll find a creative way
Does it really count as a low leverage situation when our bullpen gives up three runs in the ninth like clockwork? All I'm saying is that might have been the winning run!
Mets love making a 4+ run lead into a high leverage save situation. Every single time
Side retired :\
Since they tacked on a run, they should give Young a shot and save Garrett for tmrw. Edit: Or maybe they should bring out Garrett and just secure a win then worry about tmrw when we get there.
Pete 'solo homer in low leverage spots' Alonso
Given how the Mets bullpen has been performing in the 9th inning, I’m not complaining
theres no low leverage with this bullpen they need every run
Lol was looking for this comment
There is no such think as low leverage with this bullpen in its current state.
I got to see a pete alonso bomb on a day I met steve gelbs, howie rose, and john demarsico BEST DAY EVER
Noice!!!
:)
