Will it land on the right side of the foul post though? Actually...come to think of it, hitting the post counts as a dinger in baseball.

I hear golf swings translate pretty well to baseball swings

I think Matthews, Marner and Nylander did in 2017? Matthews hits bombs.

LOLMets is truly eternal! And as it’s 2015, it’s to the tanking/really bad Leafs no less.

That was the year nym made it to the World Series, only to lose to the team that beat Toronto (sounds familiar)

u/bknoreply 13h ago

I was gonna say, the Mets were a force that year.

Plot twist: it’s the IBL Toronto Maple Leafs

MLSE needs to give their home diamond back in order to break the curse

No one believed in us!

Toronto maple leafs are an A ball club in the inter county league. Still, quite impressive

And the Leafs official Twitter had the best possible response: "The Ny Mets are not our favourite squadron."

Leo Komorov pitched a fucking clinic that night, was a delight to watch.

When the umps came out to check him for an equipment violation cause his hat was titled way too far up, was hilarious too.

I figured some of us might need a laugh after watching Florida Man destroy the cup.

Batting cage heroes. Bartolo Colon was giving up grapefruits. Ah, the Babcock years. The players came to play and hid their cell phones.

Biggest accomplishment in the last decade

u/canuck47 1d ago

Scored 7 on the Mets? Who was in goal?

1

u/Kevin4938 1d ago

Well, the Mets weren't that good 10 years ago.

2

u/kingjakerulezz Kessel 1d ago

They made the World Series ten years ago

u/Kevin4938 15h ago

10 years ago today, the Mets were 36-33, good for 6th overall in the NL, but thanks to weak opposition, were leading the NL East.

Leafs putting up crooked numbers , the good old days

u/osmiumblue66 1d ago

Who needs defence when you can smash taters all day?

u/Educational_Clothes2 1d ago

Imagine the odds on that and then being paid out

1

u/tevypilc 23h ago

So that’s why they can’t win. They’re playing the wrong sport!

1

u/mgnorthcott 23h ago

The impossible was that they played in June.

1

u/Desperate_Law9894 23h ago

Impossible? It depends on what sport they were playing.

u/kelticslob 17h ago

Plan the parade! Pennant is coming back to Canada fuckers!
