Mets announcers are grumbling at the fielding. Butchered a DP a few games ago while in the shift.

Does the extreme shift maximize getting one out in a way that minimizes the double play? Does analytics consider experience of 2B and SS playing together?

Should Mets manager have left McNeil at 2B and put the kid, Blankenhorn, at 3B?

Earlier in the game Dominic Smith had an opportunity to throw out Gomes at the plate and didn't even try.  I guess he has a below average arm?

Fantastic experience at the park. Always good to see sullen opposing fans leaving.

Zimmerman with yet another memorable moment.
