Apologies for the profound delay in uploading this episode—Producer Nathan was out of the state over the weekend doing something really important. Producer's Assistant Kaitlyn was in the heart of darkness (Philadelphia) attending a wedding and worrying over whether Brett Baty would be traded. He was disappeared for about four days. The girls online hunted him like a sasquatch. This episode was recorded BEFORE we learned that Brett only had a sore toe and, of course, before the Monday lunchtime alert that he was actually FINE and rejoining the Big Mets IMMEDIATELY, after a mere 10 at-bats in Lovely But Dreaded Syracuse. Thank god. Maybe now we can talk about him an amount that is proportional to his importance to the team (respectfully), rather than for 45 minutes to an hour every week.
Anyway, last time you heard from us, we did name the Washington Nationals and the Arizona Diamondbacks among the teams with the scariest mascots. Figures! The rest of what happened between April 25 and May 1, we could not have foretold. And also, honestly, as I type this? I cannot really remember.
Why did the Nationals hit the Mets with so many pitches? That's one part I remember. That was so fucked up. We lost a game at the hands of franchise icon Jorge Lopez... I'm remembering that now, too. Enjoy!
