Not EQ's best inning

Nice DP!

The White Sox have been shut out (5) and held to 2 or fewer runs (23) less often than the Rangers so far.

Palisch shoving again

When is the last time Sox batters had 18 walks in a 3 game set? They saw almost 200 pitches in this game. Legitimately like two swings away from a series win here, and maybe 1 more away from a sweep. Former Mets Houser and Vasil combined for 9 scoreless innings in the series. Holding Soto hitless is pretty impressive for this staff overall.

I appreciate Taylor for keeping the inning alive so that Chase could extend his streak

Just as we all expected years ago, the top HR hitters on the White Sox are a right handed Cuban slugger and a left fielder who should be a DH!

Smooth like Vasil-ine

And a Taylor RBI!

Revenge game for Vasil too, after Houser got his earlier

Orioles young bats have fallen off this season while Sox hitters improve...coincidence?

Smith couldn't buy some of these outside calls that the Mets staff is getting.

Not including today...

I'm pretty over the width of the zone changing between half innings.

Good series for Eisert

Lol no one wants to pitch to Vargas now

Shane not used to pitching with run support

Their fans want Smith now (as does basically every fanbase who's faced him)

This is a pretty common misconception because he's slow and doesn't lift the ball enough, but Vaughn only has 4 GIDPs in 185 AB (24 GIDP opps). Baldwin pretty comfortably leads the team in GIDP with 7 in 130 AB (22 GIDP opps).

Vargas just casually has like a top 10 OPS in baseball since the swing change

Feels like if your rookie makes 4 errors in 4 innings you might pull him for his own good. Poor guy was in tears. had opposing players consoling him.

12 walks in 2 games is tied for the most the Mets have allowed in any b2b games this season, shame they couldn't turn it into more runs and steal one of these.

I think I'm in love with Miguel Vargas?

Alvarez was Cannon's first walk in a month. Solid recovery from him all things considered, not every young pitcher can give you 5.2Ip and limit the damage after a 4 run 1st.

It certainly woke up the opposing broadcast with an audible gasp lol
