We take it to City Field in the sixth inning last night.

The Santos will run on three and two.

The payoff pitch is lined in the air to left, hooking towards the corner, over goes one. He won't get it. It's in for a hit. One hops the wall. Going to third and being held there is Viantos. Runs through the stop sign. Throw to the plate. He's going to be out. A feet first slide. He's out at the plate.

Mark Vientos ran through the stop sign of third base coach Tim Leeper.

He just can't make a mistake like that, given where the Mets have been lately.

That is such a great call by Howie.

Such a great call.

It's got everything in there plus the stop sign, plus the named, everything. Like, this is what we come to expect from brilliance. Oh, of course, yes. And what happened and in the middle of it happening, what were we all thinking? He's going to get thrown out of all. I mean, obviously. That was the most egregious stop sign blow I've ever seen in baseball.

And I don't think that's just like a recency bias thing.

I mean, we're talking about like,

ah!

I tell you maybe you got to give him an actual stop sign to hold up.

He did not give two craps about what that Tim Leeper was telling him.

All right.

So I know you got sound after they, but you also have something else. And the beauty of it is, is how what he did, and that Howie was at the mic again, a couple of innings later for Viantos. The 0-1 pitch, swinging a little flare to shallow right, charging, and Walner still coming, plays it on a hop, base hit, a round third coming home, and scoring with a head first slide is Beatty. The men's lead three to two. The throw was far offline to the first base side. Going first to third is Alvarez. Vendos redeems himself for being thrown out after running through a stop sign earlier. Again, Howie. Hi, I'm Howie Rose.

So good.

If you're Walner, does you kind of die for that? Yeah, I thought so. What are you doing? It's two in the eighth inning. Yeah. It gets... It looks like Carson Benj out there. You got to lay out, especially your two outs. Guys are running on contact. Yeah. Kind of anyhow. So let let's before i get to the other stuff just

since i didn't think you'd have as much of a take on the viento's thing as you did so since you

do i'll play viento's talking about running through a stop sign here uh done dun dunn't all right

here's his first uh first part of it i was just following my instincts and um once i saw the ball that was hit off the wall, I was like, I'm going to go score on that.

And they gave me the stop sign, but I followed my instincts and I went home.

So the following question was, I guess she was trying to give him an out, even though he just said he
