OMG that was the greatest inning of baseball since Murphtober 2015.
There we were. The wheels might be coming off. Runners on the corners. None out. Will Mickey start bullpenning?
He leaves JDG in. Jake gets the out.
Then he gets the second out.
Then Mick starts to come out of the dugout…

And The One True Ace tells him I got this.
And he did!
THAT’S BASEBALL.
When you guys think I am being an old man talking about how boring baseball is, THAT’S what I am looking for.
That was old school baseball. 2-1 game with the Ace on the mound. The drama of watching JDG work the inning was so so so so so so so so so much more compelling than this bullshit version of the game we’ve seen in the 21st Century where we use three guys to get three outs.
Seriously, how exciting was that inning? Were you not pumped when the inning ended?
THAT’S BASEBALL. It was nice to see it for once. I seriously enjoyed that inning more than any inning since 2015. I wish we’d see more of it.
(Unfortunately the Mets blew the lead the next inning.)
