SLACKISH REACTION: what a nice night. I actually watched night baseball on the deck for the first time all season. Good to have Ronnie back (his voice understandably a tad thin). Thor was mad at Mickey! Mickey was mad at Mickey!
“I was a bit surprised,” Syndergaard said, when asked about his removal. “But in that moment, the heat of competition and the will to go out there and complete the inning I got a little fired up and frustrated, but that subsided and that was kind of a stinger of a game.” (via NY Post)

I may upgrade the Mickey Watch Watch to a Mickey Watch depending on tonight’s result. Fortunately for Mickey, his most reliable starter goes tonight!
OK – Gary needs to ever say Thunder Pete again. Luckily, Gary was much better on the next home run call.
Matt Harvey seems confused and isolated.
Jay Bruce has 2 homers and 6 RBI tonight for the Phillies, including this grand slam.
Sleep well, Mets fans.

I did! I stopped actively watching after 7, even though it was tied because after all baseball is boring, so I logged off twitter and rested my eyes. I sort of heard Gary say something about the Mets losing and fumbled for the remote.
I wonder if Jeff wakes up and realized he FUBAR’d the GM hire and screwed up the manager hire. This team is going to be in the wilderness for a lonnnng time, as we reach the end of the era of the Five Aces that was supposed to be the payoff.
