METS TO SUPPORT MILITARY FAMILES AT CITI FIELD ON JULY 9

 

FLUSHING, N.Y., July 8, 2021 – The New York Mets will show their support to military families and RememberEveryoneDeployed.org (R.E.D.) on Friday, July 9 when they take on the Pittsburgh Pirates at 7:10pm.

 

R.E.D. is an organization that raises awareness about the hardships of those deployed and their families. They act in support of the ‘silent soldiers,’ the families of those deployed and provide direct aid to active duty military and their families. R.E.D. was founded in 2016 in Jacksonville, N.C. at Camp LeJeune, a Marine Corps Base, to show solidarity and support for deployed service members.

 

The Mets will support the organization with a promotional giveaway at Citi Field on Friday, July 9. The team, along with Fiserv, will give away a military-themed T-Shirt to the first 12,500 fans in attendance in support of RememberEveryoneDeployed.org.

 

R.E.D. representatives will throw and catch the ceremonial first pitch and will conduct on-site activations on Mets Plaza and on the main concourse where fans can donate to the cause and support active duty military and their families.

 

R.E.D. and Fiserv will honor the Veteran of the Game, Robert Alan LaPenta, a veteran of the Marines assigned to Marine Fighter Squadron 115 Silver Eagles.

 

Fans interested in learning more about the cause or how to donate can visit remembereveryonedeployed.org. Those interested in attending the game can visit mets.com/tickets.

I feel like they are making tons of caps this summer. most of them awful.

One trend seems to be putting a word mark on the cap instead of the logo.  Unfortunately for us Mets fans, the word Mets does not stretch out well, and the blue and orange doesn’t work on this type of design. Compare it to the Texas cap I included which works much better.

 

It’s a hot night in Baltimore…89 degrees.  I have typed one sentence and I think we all know how this will go.  Let’s check the numbers.

And they aren’t good.

Matt starts the game with a walk and a hit and let’s see how he’s feeling.

Us too.  Well then a lot happened but I have a volleyball game to get to.

There was this flyball to left for an out and they doubled off the runner!  2 outs.

Oh wait, you idiots invented replay.  Never mind, it’s not a catch.  It’s a double and the run scored.

Then there was like a single and a ground rule double and who cares.  The point is Matt has nothing, you know it, I know it, I think the Orioles even know it, but it’s 3-0 now and on to the second – but first the face of a man realizing he will never date a model again.

While I was at volleyball Matt pitched 1-2-3 second and The Dark Knight is back baby!

In the third – another 1-2-3 and it’s time to start making t-shirts.

But for Matt Harvey, the magic never lasts.  I keep telling Brandon Hyde to use TDK a a “threepener” which is my term for a three inning opener.  Get him out.

But Brandon Hyde, not to be confused with actor Bruce Hyde who played Lt. Kevin Riley in two episodes of StarTrek, does not listen to me.

Let’s let Blue Jays Twitter take it from here…

You get the idea.

And this next tweet rubs salt in the wound.

And kids, take a long look as this may be your last.

That man there? He used to be somebody.

Final line on Matt Harvey:

3 ⅔ IP, 9 H, 6 ER, BB, 3 SO. 75 pitches, 50 strikes.

He cannot win. He can lose. His ERA is 7.70.

Will The Dark Knight Return? Or will the Blue Jays be his demise?

Tune in after the All Star Break to see what the Orioles do!

Wow here are some DEEP CUTS jerseys spotted by Ryan. Even @mediagoon doesn’t own these.

I was thinking that I hadn’t done a YOU OWN post in a long time and then I remembered nobody went to games for a year and a half.

And remember when Gelbs ripped this bit off on TV? Lame.
