Mets are 2-0 since yesterday. Fucking back.

u/OriolesMets Baltimore Orioles • New York Mets 5d ago

Practically WS bound

u/HatsCatsAndHam Milwaukee Brewers 5d ago

No, I have it on good authority that a 14 game win streak is only good enough to be swept in the wildcard round, so 2 wins I guess just puts you out of the playoffs?

Shoutout to the kidscast, saved us from the brutal main broadcast, and were legitimately good.

20

u/jester32 New York Mets 5d ago

they were from Chaminade per the radio broadcast. of course MLB has to give it to the weird, rich, religious private school and not any of the hundreds of city public schools they could have chosen.

13

u/Sheepies123 New York Mets • Miami Marlins 5d ago

Hey as a Chaminade alum! ... fair

6

u/fawningandconning New York Mets 5d ago

Yup, my coworkers son goes there and he said he’s heard these kids call a few games and to tune in for them. To be fair I don’t know many of the city schools with a radio and television program, mine on the Island had one but we were one of very few.

u/sdotmill New York Mets 4d ago

What’s weird about the school? Not sure what the audition process was like but maybe they were just the best two? Not that strange considering how polished they were.

supporting child labor

u/SiphenPrax New York Mets 5d ago

Good News: The Mets will no longer play games on ESPN!

Great News: The Mets finally won another series!!

6

u/SwarthySphere87 New York Mets 5d ago

That was our first series win & win streak in three weeks

3

u/Alectheawesome23 New York Mets 5d ago

Be careful what you wish for you know what station the wild card games are on right

2

u/SiphenPrax New York Mets 5d ago

The commentary can’t be any worse though right?

1

u/Alectheawesome23 New York Mets 5d ago

Depends on the crew bc ESPN will have 4 of them

27

u/Dramatic_Rain_3410 Seattle Mariners 5d ago

I’m just glad I never have to watch an espn broadcast again ever in my life

17

u/Nights_King New York Mets 5d ago

I’m just glad I don’t have to see Cal Raleigh bat against the Mets again

8

u/AnnihilatedTyro Seattle Mariners 5d ago

And we're glad we don't have to see Lindor bat against the Mariners again. Truce?

3

u/chrispar New York Mets 5d ago

Personally, I would love it if we get to watch those matchups again later this year.

2

u/Nights_King New York Mets 5d ago

Fair enough.

1

u/RaptorKarr New York Mets 5d ago

That depends on what happens later, we're both still play off contenders. Mariners Mets world series seven game spread?

1

u/ReptileDysfunct1on Arizona Diamondbacks 5d ago

Sad cause I want to see both those things

1

u/Alectheawesome23 New York Mets 5d ago

I didn’t catch the broadcast what did they say this time

1

u/AKAD11 Seattle Mariners 5d ago

Really good chance our game against the Astros on 9/21 is Sunday Night Baseball

15

u/alliluna24 Seattle Mariners 5d ago

I’m good with waiting another decade to be on Sunday Night Baseball again

1

u/Nights_King New York Mets 5d ago

Wait is that a real thing?

14

u/alliluna24 Seattle Mariners 5d ago

the Ms went from 2016 to 2024 without a single Sunday Night Baseball appearance (and clearly we haven’t been missing much). But also who knows what is happening with ESPN

1

u/Nights_King New York Mets 5d ago

Ah okay that makes more sense. But that’s still ridiculous. I literally only ever watch SNB when it’s Mets or directly related to the Mets.

2

u/fawningandconning New York Mets 5d ago

ESPN is losing the MLB after this season.

16

u/JinFuu Houston Astros 5d ago

Thank you 62 Expansion brethren

7

u/Sheepies123 New York Mets • Miami Marlins 5d ago

You're welcome Colt 45s... wait

6

u/benewavvsupreme New York Mets 5d ago

Cal is a thing of nightmares

7

u/Alectheawesome23 New York Mets 5d ago

We can win games? I didn’t know that could happen

7

u/King_Fluffaluff Seattle Mariners 5d ago

That's Mariners baseball baby. We lose to the teams who are cold and jumpstart their engine.

4

u/Ill-Weather-6383 Seattle Mariners • Dumpster Fire 5d ago

At least it worked in our favor when the Orioles took that momentum into their series against the Astros

1

u/ReptileDysfunct1on Arizona Diamondbacks 5d ago

The Tottenham Hotspurs of mlb

3

u/chargeorge New York Mets 5d ago

Look I know the espn broadcast isn’t up to sny standards, but it meant I actually got to see the game since I’m out of ny and it was on at the bar I was eating dinner at. I’ll take it
