00:00Well, the Mets had a little bit of fight in them last night,
00:02although once again, it didn't start great.
00:06And boy, oh boy, before they knew it, they were in a big hole.
00:10We had a five-run lead for the Cubs last night,
00:14and then the wheels kind of started to fall off,
00:16and you got to be scoreboard watching
00:18because they already knew late in the night there
00:21that the Reds earlier had already lost to the Pirates somehow,
00:24but they were able to get it done late
00:27with a two-run Alvarez home run there,
00:29late in the game, they were able to hold on,
00:32and they got it done 9-7,
00:34and now in many aspects control their own destiny once again here, George.
00:39That noise you heard from New York was everybody exhaling.
00:45Boy, did they need that.
00:47All right, that was 6-1 at one time.
00:49Peterson, who might have been your opening playoff rally on SP1,
00:53got shellacked again.
00:55I don't know whose thoughts are the best.
00:56Probably McClain at this point, but they came back.
00:58They won the game.
00:59Now they can relax a little bit.
01:01I do wonder, Joe, if this is that, all right, we're going to be okay.
01:04All right, now if they get back on,
01:05I'm not saying they're going to win the last five games,
01:07but if they're going to go back to being a normal baseball team
01:09and not choking it up here.
01:11We'll see tonight, by the way, because Boyd's going for Chicago.
01:14He's going up against Tong there,
01:15one of those youngsters the Mets called up along McClain and Sprout.
01:18So it won't be easy for them.
01:21But I think the Cubs are a barrage, by the way.
01:23I don't think they're a very good team.
01:24You know, that pitching staff, not very good.
01:26So I think the Mets have a chance to at least take two out of three here.
01:29Then they play Miami over the weekend.
01:31We'll see if Miami still has anything to play for.
01:33They pretty much need to win out that any chance at anything.
01:36And they're playing the Phillies, of course, here.
01:37But I think the Mets now, where they might have been gripping that bet real tight, Joe,
01:42can relax a little bit.
01:43Now, you'll want a game.
01:44It's okay.
01:45We're going to be all right.
