UThe 1980's memories are kinda funny.

Carlton made a couple AOC jokes and clearly they asked him to stop during the commercial.

Apparently everyone thought Dickie Noles was crazy. Boone kept saying how he has completely changed, but it wasn't just throwing at Brett, they all were afraid of him. Kruk even joked that he was afraid during BP years later that if he hit a home run the next pitch would be in his ear.

They showed a video of Keith Moreland walking around (he couldn't make it to this event), sad to see, I guess he had a stroke? Was having trouble walking. They all seemed to really like him personally.

[BostonRoss]

What took Rhys so long to homer today?

[EDmuch]

In terms of line up, I rate the Mets 3rd behind both the Braves & Phils. They will need Scherzer & DeGrom to be at their absolute best to even make it to NLCS.

Foul (91.1 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (85.6 mph slider)

[zambonir]

I want to believe, but not there yet. (Case in point, the Braves have actually played even better than the Phillies since June 1... main reason we have made up some ground this weekend is they're playing the Mets.)

[EDmuch]

Exactly my point. Phil’s are competitive with both

[bkeich]

Great to see Schwarber bunt there.

Rob Thomson is simply a better manager than Girardi. This bunt is exactly the difference.

[zambonir]

We'll see. Obviously the previous games against them were a different team/time/manager. But the schedule has been a big part of this run too. I like their chances against any team (and to stay ahead of the Brewers) but I don't know they are better than any team ahead of them. Of course that could also change with one more player back in the line-up.
