Now a single and a 4-6 put out.

So someone who knows more about this than I do, was he actually out at first or is the scoring wrong if he indeed did get to second base and then was out there?

I'm confused.

The scoring is now a groundout to the first baseman. (3 Unassisted) Kemp didn't touch 1st base before getting the high five so he doesn't get a hit, if he had touched the 1B coach after stepping on 1st he'd get a single and then would be out. I'm sure there is an official rule as to how to score it in each case.


edit: Now they updated the gameday to say single and is out at second 8-6 putout (challenge: Tag Play, before it was challenge: Other).

I know it's just the Mets, but Cain is looking really sharp tonight. Hopefully the time off did him good.

Poor Singleton, manages to check his swing on a ball about three inches outside and gets called out on strikes looking

Thanks! This means that the first base play was not considered in the scoring, right? (sorry for the lesson stuff folks).

I really hope he does it, just because that would be the best. Can you imagine? Brandon Motherfucking Hicks getting a cycle.

Everything I intimated earlier about the guys in the Angel Hernandez crew goes double for the Joe West crew.

Let's see how long they need to see the obvious on this replay review.

I've seen games go perfect for 12 innings all for naught. I've seen no-hitters pitched on illicit drugs. Homer streaks lasting eight games and 20 run losses. I've seen pennants won and seasons collapse. All these memories will be lost in time. Like tears in the rain.

Time to die.

It's not so much that as thinking the whole superstition thing is stupid, so of course Cain immediately gives up a hit

Fun fact: superstition is real, but only in the context of sports and fever dreams about sports.

Could still get the imperfecto (hits allowed, but still only facing 27 batters). That'd be neat. Would also mean Cain pitches a CGSO.
