  1. Good evening, good Mets friends. I hope we get the game in tonight. And beat the only sports team I genuinely and truly *hate*.

  2. Watching Jake and Noah from ’16 is what SNY gives us after the bad news from Jake and Noah seriously struggling this year.

    Sad man

  3. literally why does tbs have a blackout agreement, like I already paid $40 for sling to watch the games fox gets and now that doesn’t work for this

  4. Looks like some storms passing through Atlanta at 8, If I had to guess thats why they arent starting it

  5. This has been the worst day in a long time. Gf found out she didn’t get the job she wanted on her birthday. Part of my car broke. My tee time got canceled. One thing that would bring a smile to my face would not to give up a homer tn. We don’t even have to win. If we keep the ball in the park, hopefully we just start some better long ball trends

  6. LolBraves grounds crew. Standing there waiting for the rain… with no tarp on the field

  7. I don’t get why teams don’t openly communicate what they’re doing regarding rain delays. How hard would it be for the braves to say “we see thunderstorms in the area. We are going to re-evaluate where they are at 8pm and will update you again.”

  8. Bruh, DeGrom bearing his soul in this sound byte I just heard on Grassa. Shambles doesn’t even describe it.

  9. Imagine if we just swept the series that’s the timeline I want to be on

  10. This is the second embarrassing “rain” delay of the year the Mets have suffered through at an NL east opponent’s stadium.

    Bunch of guys standing around without a tarp on the field, without rain, and without any communication of what the plan is.

  11. At 6 there was no projected rain, a half hour ago it showed rain until 9, and now it’s 10 more minutes of light rain and that’s about it for the night. I can’t deal with this southern weather lmao forecasts are everywhere

  12. Mercedes Benz stadium has a roof. It’s the home of the Falcons, who can play in the rain.

    Truist Park doesn’t have a roof. It’s the home of the Braves, who cannot play in the rain.

    Solid Southern logic.

  13. Now the word is there “might be rain” around the time the game would have been fucking over anyway if they just started on time.

  14. I would never defend the Braves but we cancelled opening day on a sunny 65-70 degree day.

  15. It’s nice to watch these amazing finishes and seeing the Mets have an offense for a change!

  16. 3-3 in the 9th, in Brooklyn. Odds of catching the start of the Mets game is slimming

  17. I know we’re supposed to hate all things Braves, but Blooper is my favorite baseball mascot. His antics crack me up.

  18. This is a random memory, but I recall watching the St. Louis broadcast of a game (against someone other than the Mets), and they[ had a pregame segment](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wPGduTbPQ0) where they were asking all the players if they said “play catch” or “have a catch.”

    Basically everyone on the team except Matz said “play catch” and that “have a catch” sounded weird.

    Mikolas said he used both, because, “You can have a catch now and then. You don’t want to play catch too much, because you wanna take it seriously.”

    “I’ve only ever had a catch,” Matz said, immediately followed by Noot saying “No one’s ever had a catch before.”

    Some people said it might be a regional thing with Matz being from LI and all. What do you all say?

  19. Pray for me brothers and sisters, for I am a sinner among men. I have partaken of the forbidden pizza in Chicago. May God have mercy on my soul.

  20. I don’t get the delay. The radar is basically clear. There’s a very thin line of showers that just moved through Atlanta but they’re light and scattered and now past the city.

    No hour between now and midnight has a precip chance of more than 19% according to WU.

    I’m glad Gary Apple is getting some witty clapbacks in over the whole thing.

  21. What the heck does sny mean by “begin in a delay.” I get it but what’s with their use of language

  22. Why doesn’t Alonso bat in the 2 hole anymore? Analytically that would probably be the best spot for him

  23. Fucking stupid ass Barves, they’re just pushing back the game for 0 reason rn, it’s not even like they’re the A’s and trying to avoid playing us💀

  24. Just got off the phone with my grandma who lives within 5 miles of truist park and she said there’s nothing going on weather wise and nothing in the forecast

  25. The rainless 1:40 rain delay. Fucking joke. MLB keeps letting this happen, it’s incompetence at this point

  26. I have the tv on in the other room and heard Gary just call Pete Alonso hitting a 3 run first inning homer for his 22nd hr of the year.

    I was disappointed to see that the game had not started.

  27. Noticed this game is also on TBS. Is this one of the games Ronnie’s doing for them?
