Bottom 7th: Rays score 3 runs on 0 hits
Top 9th: Guardians score 3 runs on 0 hits

This happening twice in the same game must be a pretty rare occurrence.

Tough weekend for ESPN and Fox, both getting stuck with a Mets game

Which also leads to some funny statlines.

Fairbanks allowed 0 hits and got 2 strikeouts in his inning of work.

Norris allowed 0 hits and had 4ks in just over an inning of work

They combined for 7 walks and 6 total runs, but let's ignore that...

Record breaking night for the Mets, first team in the modern era to record at least seven hits and nine walks and not score a run

Gotta love this city....

Since 8-9am people have lined up to get the Bautista bat flip bobblehead.

Don't get me wrong, it's a cool giveaway, but lining up 4+ hours to get a giveaway.

And did I mention theres thunderstorms too?

Apparently this doesn't happen as much in other cities? Is that true? Are giveaways easier to get/more readily available for fans at other ballparks? I heard apparently even for Ohtani giveaway people literally just walk up near gate time and get it?

Feels like a different world here vs other ballparks if that's true.

Jays prospect Hagen Danner made his MLB debut last night.

Faced 1 batter, got them out.

He's now on the IL.

Nice knowing you....

Falcons really beating up on the Giants at Citi Field today, up 21-3

Jays should've handed Bautista and Edwin contracts to be their new hitting coaches on the spot during Bautistas ceremony today.
