Call me crazy, but I always like to a see a team entering the postseason on a hot streak, not losing their last four games. The Mets had only five hits today, and managed only one run, as Noah Syndergaard…

That’s what I feel like doing, celebrating! “Captain America” David Wright put the finishing touches on an afternoon of momentous proportions by mashing a three-run shot in the top of the ninth. The Mets had been picked by various sources…

The Cincinnati Reds barely needed to show up, but if they hadn’t, they would have missed “The Noah and Duda Show.” Noah Syndergaard pitched a masterful seven and two-thirds innings, surrendering five hits, walking none and striking out 11. The…

The story of this frustrating, infuriating game, as told by me on Twitter (@CharlieHangley): Just before the first pitch from Bartolo Colon: Let’s goooooooooo Bartolooooooo Update from our Nation’s Capital in the first inning: Baltimore 2 Washington nil… Bottom of…

Well, at least Washington lost. The Mets could not solve Matt Wisler as all the offense came in the first inning and Logan Verrett fed his gopher. It looked like the Mets would drive Wisler to the clubhouse early as…
