I mean, round of applause for the New York Mets.

And the opponent does not matter.

I don't want to hear that it's just the Baltimore Orioles because it's 162 games and you play who's in front of you.

Right.

To be punched in the mouth like that after a day off and have that implosion inning.

And more on that with Mendi and Holmes in a little bit as well.

And you lean on your big offensive threats in those points. And Lindor, Alonzo, and then of course an extra inning Soto.

Bingo.

Mets bingo.

And if the Mets are going to ultimately get to the promised land, it is all about those three

offensive bats.

And those are the kind of wins.

Again, opponent be damned that you stash in your pocket and you lean on later on when the times get tougher, the opponents get tougher, and you need that grittiness, that resiliency to say, we've been here before we've done that. That is a massive, I think, mental comeback win for the best.

No, it was mainly because as good as Clay Holmes was for five innings, that sixth inning was a disaster.

And look, you kind of want to blame Mindy,

but you also need to steal innings.

You need to steal outs, really, forgettings.

You need to steal outs because of how tax your bullpen has been.

And Clay just didn't have it after five.

And you give them credit the Baltimore Orioles for just racking up the runs

and almost making it seem like a wasted good start and a wasted night for the New York Mads.

But, I mean, even talking about this all season long, the pitching can only take you so far.
