    Scooter singles, 1st and third. Better get DeGrom now or may never get him.

    Scooter couldn't reverse his course quick enough to complete the designed play. Doesn't scoot like he used to!

    It was attempt at trying to score from third, it was not a straight steal.

    Now it may have been dumb, but I don't think they liked William's chances of driving in a run. I'm not sure I disagree. It looks like if Gennett was able to avoid that tag that Ervin would have scored.

    I thought it was a good play call, Scooter just went a little too deep and was caught off guard by the tailing throw giving the SS momentum to quickly tag Scooter.

    Yea Marty wasn't the best at describing that play. Either way its dumb. That doesn't work much at the MLB level. High school level,yes but not at the highest level.

    I get that. But if you are going to evaluate Williams's abilities at the plate you should try to give him an opportunity to hit and not run some kind of college trick play that - if successful - only gets one run home and you're out of the inning. So no runs scored and you're still out of the inning.

    Mets out in order. The Cowboy said RS looks more confident than last year. Lets hope so.

    He looks like a different guy to me. Went right after guys in first inning. Looked like he felt in control.

    One step less toward 2nd and it would have worked masterfully. Riggleman is trying to win games and steal a cheap run to get on the board first!
