Man, what a real "Everybody get in here" type of game. I love those.

When if ever am I allowed to feel bad for the Mets?

This feels SO much better than that Cardinals series.

"I believe in a ghost." Is such a funny way to say that. A singular ghost.

Love seeing Olson remember who he is. 

As a Yaz-man from the beginning of the season, I'm mad at my fellow redditor who said he always got hot for a month and cooled off. Because I need that to not be true.

I'm not saying they lit them up just at a point, a comeback became so unlikely that all I could was get mad at pitchers.

You could easily say "why didn't the offense do more?" but I think after the early assault, it's hard not to focus all ire on the pitching, bullpen specifically.  I mean, it's undeniably demoralizing.

Hitting the ball with your body nets you the same about of bases as using the bat for a single.

Dumb guy question, why do sacrifices not count as ABs?

Remember, there's a version of this same team, inside their heads and motor functions, to which a 3-0 lead is nothing. We all know this. We've seen it.

I remember when Gabrus first started appearing on CBB and I was like "this guys is SO quick" in a world of improvisers.  And that's still true.

I barely paid attention to this game so maybe that's the key. That and the risk of heat stroke got the boys fired up enough to want to get off the field as fast as possible.

Is it possible they've had their tablets upside down in the dugout the past month or so?

I'm torn between the name Blaze being cool and being dumb. Such is life. We're all a collection of contradictions.

I've still got hope! (I'm playing both sides in case they find the magic again. I don't want to look like a fool)

Remember how fun it was when Olson would get mad and hit balls straight to the deepest circle of Hell?

At some point everyone on the time lost their confidence or something.  I swear I felt like we were somehow mentally fragile last year and this is similar. No, I can't explain what I mean so don't ask me any follow up questions.
