The Mets Police

These are really nice.

And tilt your head

Bonus points if you can tell me why I titled this post the way I did.

I hope the Braves are enjoying their rainy morning in New York on what was their scheduled day off.

Remember back in April when the Braves made the short-handed Mets play a doubleheader?

Well today the Mets are in control.

Mets, do everything you can to get 18 innings in today. Wait for windows, sit through delays, play until 5am if you need to. The Braves understand the importance of making up games, I’m sure they won’t mind sitting around the visitor’s clubhouse all day, all night, and into the morning.

Here’s the weather forecast. I say wait for a window! Let’s play two!

Not sure what everyone has seen or not….
