Game 18 - Mets
Twins 4, Mets 3 (10)
Record: 11-7
"Crud," as Marls says.
Dropping 2 of 3 to the lowly Twins? Ugh.
Soto was was dreck today, 0-5 with 3 K's and a GIDP. Yipes.
The Mets were 3-12 with runners in scoring position. Oof.
The Bullpen Special did just fine, actually. Reed Garrett let everyone off the hook by ending the game in 3 pitches, but still... all in all not terrible. Okay.
Winky Dink had another strong day at the plate, but the lasting image is him getting waved home from second in the 2nd inning with nobody out on a Nimmo single. Gunned. Bleh.
Did I mention Soto's GIDP was with the bases loaded and 1 out? $#@%.
Meet me in (Queens to play) St. Louis, where the Cards may have their way with this flawed sort of baseball team. Sigh.
I supposed I'd still take 11-7 much of the time. Fight through this, Metmen.

Yep. Not the best. Missed the businessman’s (person’s?) special today working for the man (person?).
Back on the horse tonight. Offense has generally been pretty bad especially with RISP.
Last year Met Harrison Bader went 5-for-7 with 2 runs and 2 ribbies against his old team. 3-for-5 with RISP. Notable juxtaposition.
Glad he didn’t play in Game 1!
