What's the home team record in extras leaguewide I wonder?
Two great plays on the last two outs of the inning.
Not surprising result after failing to add a run or two in multiple innings.
LIterally minutes until unplayable rain starts falling.
Meanwhile in DC there is an active shooter situation outside the ballpark and the field has been cleared in the game between the Pads and Nats
rain delay.. this will be a long one...
A bummer blowing another lead in the ninth. Really wanted this one to be over and a win recorded with a save in the ninth, but just didn't happen. I am encouraged by the pitching over the first 8 innings. Good games from Velasquez, Neris and Bradley. Disappointed in all the scoring chances the Phillies didn't cash in and which would have made a big difference.
Of course, they can still win this game even if it is not tonight.

Tonight's #Phillies game has been suspended because of rain.
Well, tomorrow will be a weird one if it goes multiple innings, though winning or losing that one will be more or less random. Hopefully Wheeler goes 7 or 8.
Mets were winning 6-0 going to the 8th inning
Mets lose after giving 5 runs in the 8th and a walk off grand slam in the 9th
Mets have lost 2 in a row to the Pirates.. the team that has the 2nd worst record in the NL.
Phillies 2.5 back
Just wow!
Let's start Wheeler in the 10th inning! He would give them the best chance to win that game right? Then he can start the regulation game as well!
Sounds good to me!
When does this game start back up today?
1PM EST
wonder if the bot is able to handle a suspended game
