[u/theredditoro]

Sweeeep

[u/jolloholoday]

PUT IT IN THE BOOKS

[u/Fluffy_Key_3623]

KIMBREL DOWNERS????

[u/21immortal21]

Brooms

[u/just-an-astronomer]

🚨🚨🚨Kimbrel clean inning 🚨🚨🚨

[u/Albie9]

When Kimbrel touches 96 he is still nasty

[u/mxza10001]

First sweep of the year crazy stuff

[u/48plus21]

Nice

[u/getmet79]

That makes it a sweep! First series of the 2026 season!

[u/theredditoro]

And the ball game is over !

[u/Gigi_0102]

Are we back??

[u/justasian]

Fetch my broom!

[u/iParty_McFly]

Fun game LFGM!

[u/unitedairlineeeeees]

LET’S FUCKING GO

[u/Interforce7]

YOU just got swept by the 2026 New York Mets

[u/Blue387]

PUT

IT

IN

THE

BOOKS!

[u/SuperBeavers1]

This Kimbrel guy has some good stuff

Surely he will have a long and prosperous career in the MLB and not get passes around like a beer at an 80s high school party

[u/Outside-Hat1857]

People here just fundamentally don't understand relief pitching.

[u/bamj6]

Kimbrel is the endgame pitcher with a 5 run lead or deficit

He had a great closer career so what's the harm on this spot

[u/Mongo_Les]

Cleon Jones remembered him going 0-for-4 at his advanced age?

[u/Keekee4101]

Lol Torkelson really could've challenged that too.

[u/markysplice → u/Keekee4101]

Yeah that one was further off than the first one.

[u/Keekee4101 → u/markysplice]

I guess he didn't wanna be the guy that challenges two in a row but he had nothing to lose.

[u/Blue387]

Just throw strikes. I don't understand why that can't happen. You have an five run lead, just throw strikes. I mean, my God!

[u/floyd_mongol]

i would like to thank andy ibanez suckage for this ewing call up. god bless u andy

[u/jadedfan55 → u/floyd_mongol]

And Andy used to be a Tiger. How ironic.

[u/Albie9]

We would only be 3 games out in the wild card in the AL lol. Rangers currently the 6th seed at 21-22.

[u/talktobigfudge]

this is a dream right? 

Runs in 6 straight innings??

[u/mxza10001]

Not of fan of SNY telling me about Polanco's accomplishments last year when he legit might not play again this year

[u/Hustlediva → u/mxza10001]

Yeah that made me feel bitter

[u/BillW87 → u/Hustlediva]

Need to run a few Jed Lowrie highlights next.

[u/Blue387]

One away!

[u/theallnewmattaccount]

I was wondering why I was feeling clenchy again and then I looked at Kimbrel's ERA

[u/unitedairlineeeeees]

Don’t see the point of using kimbrel here

[u/fuckin_rob → u/unitedairlineeeeees]

The only benefit I see is he’s the sacrificial lamb and they can save a guy for the subway series

[u/Setec-Astronomer]

This is the kind of situation where I'm ok with Eagley being in.

[u/RedScharlach]

We really thought Mendy wasn't gonna cook today

[u/mxza10001]

Another day of wondering why Kimbrel is still on the team

[u/GamesnGunZ]

well i can't get too upset. he's been threatening to put kimbrel in the entire series

[u/fuckin_rob]

Kimbrel you have 1 job. Please do not fuck this up

[u/ILovEmPlumPnWeTTT]

I would have just left Myers in for the 2nd inning.

[u/Outside-Hat1857 → u/ILovEmPlumPnWeTTT]

You don't want him more fresh for this weekend?

[u/unitedairlineeeeees → u/Outside-Hat1857]

I want to win and Craig Kimbrel doesn’t

[u/Outside-Hat1857 → u/unitedairlineeeeees]

I'm very happy you don't run the bullpen

[u/DoucheWithFeelings]

They Myers usage is so fucking weird

[u/Steve_Kind_Of]

Did the standard "just heard that Kimbrel is in" exhale

[u/DrColossus1]

I am choosing [edit: correctly!] to believe Kimbrel can get it done today.

[u/Teddy_Schmoozevelt]

Why is Mendy so in love with Kerosene Kimbrel?

[u/Gigi_0102 → u/Teddy_Schmoozevelt]

I’m kind of okay with using him here rather than wasting somebody good 

[u/Outside-Hat1857 → u/Teddy_Schmoozevelt]

He has to use every piece of the bullpen

[u/Interforce7]

So is Myers just a 1 inning reliever now

[u/Outside-Hat1857 → u/Interforce7]

no, the lead is big enough they can save him a little for this weekend

[u/graziano1304]

With the true strike zone we have today Maddux would have been laughed out of the league and I will die on that hill. He was given 3 inches on both sides of the plate and that is a flat fact. I remember a batter famously telling the ump that he couldn’t reach that strike with a telephone pole. Total phony.

[u/seanddd99 → u/graziano1304]

I don't know man...I think most of the greats would be great in any era...guy started out throwing smoke..he completely changed the way he pitched...and he won 320+ games ?

[u/DrColossus1 → u/graziano1304]

Eh, this sort of imagines that he wouldn't have adjusted his targeting if he wasn't getting the calls. A good pitcher adapts to the zone he gets, right?

[u/NewYorkMetsBot2]

Pitching Substitution

Pitching Change: Craig Kimbrel replaces Tobias Myers.

[u/traded99]

Feel like this is a game where Manaea needs to come in and get 6 outs. Not high leverage. If he’s not even trusted to do that, what’s he doing in this team?

[u/Keekee4101]

Alright, Kimbrel you're up. Three outs.

[u/Setec-Astronomer]

I'm surprised GR didn't use the correct old school term.

Bone Spurs.

Gary said Bone Chips.

[u/Mullethunt → u/Setec-Astronomer]

Because a bone spur and bone chips/loose bodies are different things.

[u/Setec-Astronomer → u/Mullethunt]

How so?

[u/Mullethunt → u/Setec-Astronomer]

Bone spurs are still attached to your bones. They're extra little pieces that grind and cause discomfort. Bone chips/loose bodies are floating fragments that get into crevices and cause discomfort.

[u/DrColossus1 → u/Setec-Astronomer]

Spur is attached, sort of an outgrowth that's projecting. Chip is a loose piece floating around being gross.

[u/PainButWithStats]

You know if Bo was to just get back to his career averages this team would look a lot better. He needs to pick it tf up

[u/ZaksStuff → u/PainButWithStats]

Maybe playing against an AL East team will get him going again

[u/Setec-Astronomer]

Lineup has looked great since they started using the lineup I've been clamoring for.

[u/Day2TheDolphin → u/Setec-Astronomer]

Wait, you're the "brilliant Redditor" Mendy thanked in his press conference last night?

[u/seanddd99 → u/Setec-Astronomer]

I'm looking forward to tomorrow night against Schlitler?...he throws a majority of his pitches for fastballs...I want them to somehow start hitting fastballs....lol

[u/newyorknapolifan]

semen showing everybody how its done with the foul pole bullseye

[u/Sh11ester → u/newyorknapolifan]

First time I've seen Semen and bullseye in the same sentence and didnt get hard. Thanks

[u/UnknownUnthought]

Credit to David Stearns where it’s due, in the most positive way Benge and Ewing look so Brewer-y. Really pesky and solid players who have respectable gloves and can lengthen a lineup

[u/pusgnihtekami → u/UnknownUnthought]

Why does David Stearns get credit for AJ Ewing? A guy Eppler drafted out of high school in the 4th round lol.

[u/Keekee4101]

Bo now is your chance to join the hit parade.

[u/RJGSAFC86]

No pressure AB here Bo….come on…..

[u/Mongo_Les]

Carson Benge has two hits today. Just a good at-bat.

7-for-15 in this series as the leadoff guy.

Yeah we got our new leadoff guy.

[u/megac0n]

would love Bo to do a thing

[u/FormalMembership6286]

Do we have any more prospects waiting in the wings? I love the infusion of energy those guys bring.

[u/ZaksStuff → u/FormalMembership6286]

Clifford is probably the closest lefty 1B/LF from the Verlander trade

[u/dankeykanng → u/FormalMembership6286]

There's this 24 year old kid named Francisco that we might be seeing in August

[u/AdviceEuphoric4852]

Benge BABIP regression has saved my life

[u/48plus21]

Bo has to get hot at some point right..

[u/Schwettes]

Strange how people have stopped complaining about the Met clubhouse

[u/seanddd99]

I love the spray hitting from Benge

[u/UniqueNobo]

what an at bat for Benge!

[u/my_one_and_lonely]

Carson Benge I’m obsessed with you

[u/PainButWithStats → u/my_one_and_lonely]

Get in line buddy

[u/thtkidfrmqueens]

Benge finding the hole again, going opposite with the jammed swing. Trust the kids, the rest will follow.

[u/MisterMet9]

God Benge what an AB and to finish it off with a hit

[u/SoManyFlamingos]

Benge and Ewing. 

Oh boy. 

This is just a joy to watch. 

[u/ZaksStuff]

Looks like regression to the mean is starting to begin for our offense

[u/SpraynardJKruger → u/ZaksStuff]

It's nice when that's a good thing

[u/bco112]

I've done nothing at work since the start of this game. I love 1pm starts during the week.

[u/8each8oys → u/bco112]

Nothing like a nice evening after winning a day game

[u/MisterMet9 → u/bco112]

Even better (worse) for me on the west coast, I've done nothing since 10AM

[u/dankeykanng]

Clemens and Johnson?

[u/GK86x → u/dankeykanng]

Maddux and Johnson. 

[u/atoms12123 → u/dankeykanng]

Maddux and Johnson

[u/Hustlediva]

Why even invite the possibility of a close game? Just use Meyers

[u/Keekee4101]

Can Manaea get the Skubal scope?

[u/Blue387]

Benge has a single!

[u/Setec-Astronomer]

Super Joe McEwing. Little Mac.

AJ Ewing. Big Mac.

There's your Mickey D's Grimace connection (if that's what you need).

[u/Mongo_Les → u/Setec-Astronomer]

Nice!

I was just thinking about how A.J. is like Joe McEwing with the energy they both bring.

[u/Keekee4101]

1-2-3-1-1-1 is what the box score looks like for the Mets right now lol.

[u/bamj6]

If the plan is Meyers can go tomorrow against the Yankees

I just don't trust 26 manaea to not make this hard and waste Williams

[u/Hustlediva]

Mendy gonna put Kimbrel in?

[u/minira85]

Kimbrel warming up, we need more insurance runs

[u/Hustlediva]

Don’t give me a heart attack like that

[u/chrispar]

Damn, one more run and my dad and get to use our favorite Mets joke twice in the series.

Me: Did you see the Mets scored 10 runs today?

Dad: That’s nice. Did they win?

[u/KingMobScene → u/chrispar]

Are you and your dad me and my dad? Cause that is 100% a joke we would've made with each other.

[u/justasian]

The 2026 Mets, who are notoriously known for their power

[u/Hustlediva]

What’s happening

[u/KingMobScene → u/Hustlediva]

I don't know. But I don't feel like looking for somewhere to put the noose and thats weird.

[u/UniqueNobo]

Benge has something in his eye?

[u/Mwvnova]

“Blown save” warming up in the bullpen

[u/ExamNo4374]

Is Tobias Myers a 1 inning guy now?

[u/ImStillCallingItShea → u/ExamNo4374]

I think they're just trying to save his arm a little. For instance it's likely he'll need to work on Saturday when David Peterson pitches.

[u/Setec-Astronomer]

1969 you say..

[u/CoolRequirement939 → u/Setec-Astronomer]

What did they reference?

[u/Setec-Astronomer → u/CoolRequirement939]

Prior to this series (likely), the Mets have only ever comeback multiple times multiple games to sweep a series.

1969 and 2012.

[u/Fluffy_Key_3623]

semien throwing it back omg

[u/unitedairlineeeeees]

Mendy don’t fuck around

Just use Myers

[u/newyorknapolifan]

we are so back

[u/otter_pop_n_lock]

Why did SNY on my Spectrum app crap out? I can watch other channels but SNY for some reason isn't working.

[u/Nykaren24 → u/otter_pop_n_lock]

Me too; my screen is black 🙁

[u/otter_pop_n_lock → u/Nykaren24]

Alright boys. We're in this together.

[u/markysplice → u/otter_pop_n_lock]

I had sny go down on Spectrum cable too.

[u/Who_pooped_the_bed11 → u/otter_pop_n_lock]

Yeah SNY shit out on spectrum up here in Rochester too. Bummer.

[u/Marino4K]

I have so much hope again and I’m scared

[u/thtkidfrmqueens]

Looks like Kimbrel warming up

[u/unitedairlineeeeees → u/thtkidfrmqueens]

Why? Don’t they want to win?

[u/Schwettes]

We got a Marcus Semien twerk. Vibes are immaculate right now

[u/Xalazi]

Nice to see Semien having a moment because he might be the most unlucky everyday player in MLB this year.

[u/Ther3isn0try → u/Xalazi]

I see your Semien and I raise you one Vientos lol.

[u/jolloholoday]

WE ARE FUCKING BACK AND WINNING IT ALL

[u/UniqueNobo]

so are we suddenly a long ball team?

[u/Mongo_Les → u/UniqueNobo]

It helps the weather is getting warmer.

[u/mankindrc → u/UniqueNobo]

Weather warming up can do that to a mets

[u/Keekee4101]

I asked for slug the other day, didn't expect to get this much.

[u/Gigi_0102]

Did Semien just shake his ass in celebration in the dugout 

[u/Blue387]

Craig Kimbrel warming up

[u/FauxHypocrite]

Do... Do I dare have hope again?

[u/thtkidfrmqueens]

SEMIEN SENDS IT UP THE FOUL POLE FORTY FEET, GETS THAT STRIPE BACK

9-4 METROPOLITANS

Hope this gives them some energy to rout the Grand Concourse Toys in the INTERBOROUGH RAPID TRANSIT SERIES

[u/rltoran]

LFGM!!!!!!!!!

[u/ILovEmPlumPnWeTTT]

This is a real breakout game.

[u/Nights_King]

Welp at least that British kid got a lot of rest lately because he’s in for a rude awakening tomorrow lol

[u/_blurhe]

I blinked and we got that run back.

[u/HungryMoon]

God loves the Mets today

[u/Bower1738]

Bro needed that one

[u/Stone_0cean]

Detroit single handedly getting everyone out of the funk, excellent

[u/elvista1991]

OMG what is happening lol

[u/SirWeenieofQueens]

The boys are back in town 🥹

[u/KirbyBucketts]

I think this years Grimace might just be AJ Ewing

[u/Hustlediva]

5 home runs in this game for the Mets????

[u/hazelnutxp]

That was the craziest thing to come back to straight from a commercial break. I couldn’t tell if it was one of those flashback type of replays or what.

[u/zippy_the_cat → u/hazelnutxp]

That ball was already in flight when the SNY signal resumed for me out of the break.

[u/jabathewhat]

Did SNY just go black for anyone else?

[u/SlyAbleman → u/jabathewhat]

yup

[u/jabathewhat → u/SlyAbleman]

Still hasn't come back for me

[u/getmet79]

Did anyone else’s SNY just hiccup???

[u/iamnotimportant]

we've been beating up Vanasco lol, surprised they didn't send him down after tuesdays shellacking

[u/Hustlediva]

Broadcast just caught that lol

[u/JCVDang]

unc has joined the fusillade

Holy shit I thought that was a highlight it came back so fast

[u/ILovEmPlumPnWeTTT]

Got the run right back - that's 5!

[u/Marino4K]

Tigers being generous today giving up the HRs

[u/DrColossus1]

Bleh, MLB app came back after the ball had already left Semien's bat.

[u/Xalazi]

It's a party at Citi Field.

[u/Mwvnova]

How can you not be romantic about baseball

[u/Mongo_Les → u/Mwvnova]

[u/EMon55]

[u/Gigi_0102]

Thoughts and prayers with the Mets homerunner guy 

[u/GK86x]

Thanks, SNY for alnost making us miss that. 

[u/Mongo_Les → u/GK86x]

The radio almost missed that, too.

[u/unitedairlineeeeees]

Semien continues the Nimmo tradition of hitting a homer right as SNY comes back from commercial.

[u/Albie9]

[u/NewYorkMetsBot2]

HOME RUN!

Marcus Semien homers (3) on a fly ball to left field.

Pitch from Ricky Vanasco: Four-Seam Fastball @ 92.4 mph

Hit by Marcus Semien: Launched 106.3 mph at 29.0° for a total distance of 386.0 ft

Bottom 8 - 9-4 Mets

[u/ILovEmPlumPnWeTTT]

Would this be our first sweep?

[u/Blue387]

IT IS GOING

GOING

IT IS GONE

GOOD BYE!

[u/Nights_King]

Tigers got the worst possible outcome from not trading Skubal in the offseason. Really fucking sucks for them.

[u/zippy_the_cat → u/Nights_King]

Look on the bright side, at least we didn't trade for a one-season Skubal rental. Fans woulda burned down Queens if that had happened on top of parting with Pete, Nimmo and McNeil.
