Nothing no be ashamed about. We got shut out by the best pitcher in baseball. The way Clayton Kershaw was pitching, the ’27 Yankees couldn’t have scored. With pinpoint control, a mid-90s fastball with movement, a big looping curve and…
Noah Syndergaard did his best Bugs Bunny imitation and (almost) single-handedly beat the Dodgers, 4-3, Wednesday night in Los Angeles. Syndergaard needed just 95 pitches to complete eight innings. He allowed just two runs, both coming on solo shots, walked…
The Mets had their three-game winning streak snapped as they fell to the Dodgers, 3-2, Tuesday night in Los Angeles. Jacob deGrom again didn’t have his best stuff but after allowing two runs in the first inning he battled through…
For the second straight day, Mets’ relief pitchers tiptoed past the lions’ den without disturbing a single sleeping feline. Early homers and stout bullpen work allowed the Mets to maintain their ultra-slim lead in the NL East. Curtis Granderson sent…
On Mother’s Day, 2016, the Mets and San Diego Padres played one mother of a ballgame. It was hard fought, and kind of wild. The Mets took the field in all pink road uniforms, which simultaneously raised breast cancer awareness…
The Mets hit four homers and finally beat the Padres, 6-4, Saturday night. But there’s only one thing that people will remember about this game. Bartolo Colon hit a homer. Yep, you read that right, Colon homered. Sure, Yoenis Cespedes…
Once again the Mets could do nothing against a Padres starter with a big curve, as they fell to San Diego, 2-0, Friday night. There’s more ammunition for those who think Tim Teufel is a bad 3B coach. He opted…
The Mets fell behind early, staged a ninth inning comeback but fell on the short side of a 5-3 game Thursday night in San Diego in the opener of an 11-game road trip. Jacob deGrom had neither his best velocity…
The Mets claimed their sixth straight series win with an 8-0 whitewashing of the Braves Wednesday afternoon. The Mets are now 6-2 in blowout games, ones decided by five or more runs. One day after managing just one hit, the…
The Mets managed just one hit at home against the last place Braves. The Mets’ lineup made Matt Wisler look like Jim Palmer, hitting pop-up after pop-up off him for 8 innings. Typically, it happened during a Matt Harvey start.…
The Mets cracked three homeruns in the first inning, then put the game on cruise control for a matter-of-fact 4-1 win over the Atlanta Braves. David Wright, Yoenis Cespedes and Lucas Duda all homered, sandwiched around a Michael Conforto single…
Welp. You can’t win them all, right? The Mets dropped the final game of the series against the Giants on a soggy, miserable day at Citi Field 6-1, snapping their eight-game winning streak. There’s no shame in losing to Madison…
