Skid's 2015 Dream Season

SEPTEMBER 15 - HOME GAME #71 vs Miami Marlins (61-83)

Jacob deGromm (13-7) tries to extend the Mets 8 game win streak against the Marlins Tom Koehler (9-13). Since Sept. 1, Yoenis Cespedes leads MLB in RBIs (19), runs (16) and homers (9).

83-62 +8.5

Lets Go Mets! A poor performance by starter Jacob deGrom, allowing 3 runs in both the 4th and 5th innings. The Marlins never let the Mets get back in the game although the Mets had a few chances to do so. The Marlins pitcher Koehler, hit Yoenis Cespedes in the hip with a first inning pitch to rile up the Mets a bit. When Koehler came up to bunt in the 7th, Mets reliever Erik Goeddel threw a pitch behind Koehler's back, prompting a warning to both benches from the home plate umpire.

Very nice seat in the Delta Club tonight, last row 18 directly behind home plate. Waiter service, clean restrooms just inside, padded seat. When I bought my tickets in November I ended up with some nice seats for the final month. Only 10 home games left before the season is done.

The juggernaut Mets offence was nowhere to be found tonight. A few warning track power fly balls but no home runs. The Marlins are playing better than earlier in the season but I expected some balls getting knocked around by the Mets. Earlier this year, in June and July, 3 runs and 7 hits would be acceptable as a high production game but now it is short of expectations.
