The Mets Set A Club Record With 8 Home Runs And 15 Extra Base Hits In Philly Bloodbath
14 unanswered runs to pick up their boy Jacob deGrom after a very uncharacteristic blow out on the mound. 8 home runs, 15 extra base hits – both club records. 49 runs in their last 4 games, just 3 short of their franchise record. Every single position player except for Ruben Tejada with a home run tonight. This team is absolutely MASHING now. I mean look at that goddam box score! Its like a fucking novel! Since July 25, top 5 offense in the National League to go along with the OODLES of pitching we’ve had all year.
And who set the tone tonight for this offense? The Captain. DW. Welcome back brotha.
PS – Dont talk to me about soft schedules. When you’re scoring 14 runs a night and dismantling your opponents it doesnt matter who the opposition is. Its not like they are just squeaking by against these shitty teams. They are destroying them, just as a good team should. Mets took their lumps earlier in the year, weathered the storm, and now get to fatten up down the stretch. Might win 95 games at this rate. With this offense and this schedule, any win total is possible.
