We haven’t came back from being behind in like two months btw
Please score
You don’t think Jake is feeling off, hope they don’t pull him at like 65 pitches
So we’re swinging at high and away fastballs and looking at hanging curves and first pitch fastballs down the middle… great recipe for success boys
Braves are a different beast at home, luckily they’ve played the most home games in the MLB so maybe they slow down a little bit with a heavy road schedule left
PETER GUNN THEME
Despite the mood in here, I’m honestly not too stressed about the chances of them coming back. Monday and Tuesday was 1000 times worse.
Let’s at a minimum work fried. Can’t let him go deep.
We know. Thanks Keith.
It’s not over but Fried is damn good! Really missed the chance in the 3rd.
Even if we lose we control our destiny.
Jake’s gotta get out of his own head
2 runs for the Mets when degrom is pitching is a tall task for sure
Pete you just laid off that changeup cmon
Wtf ump
Good god this ump is compete ass
And punting of the game has been engaged this team has offically given up.
All 4 of these home plate umpires can get fucked
UMP!
No fucking way he called that pitch 4 inches inside a strike
This ump fucking sucks
That’s just not close to being a strike lol. Fuck this idiot.
BLUE THATS FUCKING ATROCIOUS… 2 baseballs off the plate
Fuck off ump
Home plate umpire needs his eyes checked
“Strike” lol k bud
Oh come on Pete
Leave McCann in Atlanta.
Dude… wtf. I’m sorry y’all. Bad call by the ump for sure
Are you absolutely fucking kidding me?!
damn…Strider paid off the umps ig.
Imagine being such an emotional toddler you wish death upon someone for “dooming” on the internet
Two awful calls
Our offense sucks, we don’t need your help Mr. umpire
Just want to take a moment to say, McCann fucking sucks.
What the hell was that call? How do you delay and still get it wrong?
Too bad the Mets offense isn’t hot today. You can usually tell by the second inning
in what world is that a strike?
Went down the tunnel to hit up Terry Collins for a nice pep talk
What? That was called a ball to Pete earlier. But I guess it’s a strike now.
Should be 3-0 right now
Wut?!
some of you don’t seem to get that the Braves have a legit elite lineup. Just look up and down. No easy outs. We have shitheads like McCann basically giving up at the plate
Jesus christ, did Max Fried unlock a bonus six inches off the plate before the game?
Jake can’t get half an inch on the outside corner, Fried gets two fucking inches off the inside corner.
Fuck you ump
the umps genuinely are ruining the game. something needs to be done
