Cubs @ Mets: Arrieta vs. Syndergaard (Game 169; NLCS Game 2)

Submitted by CTSteve on

Jake takes the mound down 1-0 to the Mets.

CHC: RHP Jake Arrieta
NYM: RHP Noah Syndergaard
First pitch: 7:07pmCT

Arrieta finally came back to Earth in his last game, giving up 4 ER in 5.2 innings in Game Three of the NLDS but getting the win against the Cardinals.

In his two games against the Mets this year, he went 2-0 with a 1.13. Arrieta gave up 1 ER over 8 innings in games at each park but actually pitched better on the road during the season, going 13-1 with a 1.60 ERA. The Mets batted .160 against him in the two games. For his career, they are 25-102 (.245) against him. Granderson is 10-30 with 3 HR.

Syndergaard lost against the Dodgers (6.1 IP, 3 ER) in Game Two of the NLDS and pitched one inning of relief in the clinching game on Thursday. He warmed up four times (with 60 pitches) because of deGrom’s early struggles, which means he might be on a pitch count.

Against the Cubs at Wrigley on May 12--it was also his MLB debut--Syndergaard went 5.1 and gave up 3 ER for the loss. He went 7-2 with a 2.46 at home. The Cubs are 6-17 against him. Bryant and Soler are 2-3. Coghlan has a HR.

To call this game a must-win is an understatement. deGrom vs. Hendricks on Tuesday.

Go Cubs!

I found yesterday's game entirely predictable, very much like game 1 of the NLDS. To me the problem with Lester's performance isn't 4ER in 6.2. The problem is yet another first inning run that changes the entirely mentality and approach of the game. All the pre-series buzz was about the fact the Mets have strong and deep pitching, but the Cubs have Arrieta and Lester. The mets have 3 pitchers all with better numbers than Lester this year. Hopefully Arrieta gets his mechanics back with and extra day of rest. Otherwise, it was fun while it lasted.

So, technical question. When I try to log on to Parachat, it opens a bunch of seedy-looking pop-under windows. In fact, even when I'm able to log on, any time I touch the Parachat window, something opens up. Anyone else get this? Also, go Cubs.

ParaChat places the ads on the free version of its product. To remove them, one must either purchase one of the other products they offer or I can install and configure a chat room. I haven't looked into it, but I doubt you'd get all the bells and dolphins that you get in ParaChat.

Ads isn't the issue, it is the very shady 2005 like pop-under type of ads that launch on Internet Explorer that is the problem. I do suppose that comes with the territory of it being a free product. I don't have issues on Chrome though, so suggest people always use that and not try with IE.

I checked the code and the ads and pop-ups are coming from parachat. Either they aren't checking out their ads well or someone hacked their ad server. Everyone's browser should have a setting where a pop-up window can be blocked. I wouldn't reccommend IE to anyone.

Ugh. The first inning totally ruined this game -- Cubs were never in it after that. I don't think they even got the tying run to the plate in the last 8 innings. 3 very crappy hours of baseball viewing. And, so, the season now depends on the right arms of Kyle Hendricks and Jason Hammel. Hmmm.

Because of the sites new color scheme, printing things such as the Org. Depth Chart come out very faint. Am I the only one noticing this?

    Folks, I've known Richard Lovelady since he was an 18 yr old Freshman at East Ga State College in Swainsboro, Ga.

    I was the WBB Coach at EGSC and Richard was their prize recruit from outside of Hinesville, Ga.

    My roommate was the Pitching Coach there.

    Richard showed up a skinny, loose lipped, 83mph Lefty. Pretty good basketball player actually. 

    My roommate became the head coach.

    Richard came back from a minor injury for his Sophmore year a more serious man. He hit 90mph and started mowing GA JUCO hitters down. It was really fun to watch.

    He was the first D1 signee for EGSC baseball (school had only had athletics for five yrs at that point). He went to Kennesaw St and became their closer. One yr later, he hit 100mph and KC drafted him in the 10th Rd. 

    He lost the high velo with a surgery a while back.

    It's so cool to see him in MLB. And now he's a Cub!! It's crazy to realize I actually "know" a Cub.

    He's a legit good guy.

    Easy to root for!!!

    Tim. Thanks for remembering Lee Elia Day. It will always be one of the most epic rants in all sports.  It took about 3 seconds to recognize him from your picture but I  did get it right. 

    Now that Les Grobstein is no longer with us, that might contribute to this grand piece of Cubbery fading.

    Just like fine wine, it should be savored...unedited. 40 years, wow.
