Despite a great showing by Wheeler, the Mets seemed to be able to hit anything the bullpen threw them. It was crazy how efficient NY suddenly became. Meanwhile, our bats stayed pretty quiet all night. I hope the Phillies bats wake up in game two.
Go Phil鈥檚!

Honestly what I feared would happen. Great game from Wheeler just for the bullpen to shit the bed
Wheeler鈥檚 whiffs were insane. 6 in the first inning alone iirc (on 11 pitches I think?)
Wasn鈥檛 surprised about Hoffman since he had a rough outing in the last (second to last? Can鈥檛 remember) game of the year.
At the end of the day, there鈥檚 two big issues:
- Teams that get the first round bye struggle
- The Mets are hot. They鈥檙e on a roll and that鈥檚 important, even if it鈥檚 just psychological
I鈥檇 rather face any other team right now besides the Mets tbh.
