[ad_1] MIAMI — Pete Alonso hit his thirty third house run however the New York Mets couldn't erase an early deficit and misplaced 6-3 to the Miami Marlins on Friday evening. New York, which started the day clinging to a half-game lead within the NL East over Atlanta, squandered a pair of fine scoring possibilities by grounding into double performs.The defending World Series champion Braves performed later in Seattle, seeking to take sole possession of first place for the primary time all season. The solely day this yr the Mets didn't maintain a minimum of a share of the division lead was April 11."It's that time of year, a lot of us can hit that wall," Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor stated. "We have to find a way to break through the wall and do it together. That's what good teams do and I'm sure we're going to do it."Garrett Cooper homered, doubled and singled for the Marlins, who've by no means had a participant hit for the cycle. It was Cooper's third straight multi-hit sport following a protracted stoop.The Mets chipped away at a 4-1 deficit with Alonso's two-run shot towards starter Edward Cabrera within the sixth. Tyler Naquin adopted with a stroll that ended Cabrera's outing. One-out singles from Eduardo Escobar and Tomás Nido off Marlins reliever Tanner Scott and a stroll to Brandon Nimmo loaded the bases within the seventh. Steven Okert relieved Scott and retired Lindor on a double-play grounder."It was a big moment for both sides, a turning point of the game right there," Lindor stated. "I didn't come through. That's on me."The Marlins regained their three-run benefit on Charles LeBlanc's two-run homer towards reliever Joely Rodriguez within the eighth. Rodriguez then issued one-out walks to Jerar Encarnación and Bryan De La Cruz. In an unfamiliar position, Mets nearer Edwin Díaz entered and obtained the following two outs."We started a little slow and got some things going," Mets supervisor Buck Showalter stated. "We just couldn't cash them in." Okert obtained three outs within the eighth and Dylan Floro closed with an ideal ninth for his fourth save."Every out you get as you get towards the end of the game, it's big," Marlins supervisor Don Mattingly stated. "(Okert) gets us out of a jam there and then we're able to close it out there with Okie and Flo."Nick Fortes had three hits and Miguel Rojas doubled twice for the Marlins, who completed with 10 hits. Miami has double-digit hits in a season-high three straight video games."It's been a grind," Cooper stated. "It's been a struggle for us offensively. As you go throughout the year, you need little reminders to say 'screw it' and just go out there and play."Cabrera (5-2) allowed three runs and 5 hits in 5 2/3 innings. The rookie right-hander walked two and struck out 4.The Marlins struck shortly on Cooper's two-run homer within the first. Cooper drove a changeup from starter David Peterson over the wall in left-center for his eighth homer.Brandon Nimmo's run-scoring single within the third made it 2-1, however Jeff McNeil bounced into an inning-ending double play with runners on the corners. Rojas' RBI double within the fourth gave Miami one other two-run benefit, and Fortes' RBI double within the fifth made it 4-1.Peterson (7-4) was lifted after 3 2/3 innings. The left-hander gave up three runs, seven hits and two walks. He struck out seven.New York fell to 3-4 in its final seven video games towards a trio of struggling groups: Washington, Pittsburgh and Miami."We never look at it that way," Showalter stated. "I know that's what everybody else wants to talk about. Reality is these are the best players in the world."BREAKING OUTBefore his stretch of multi-hit video games, Cooper had been in a 10-for-109 slide since July 2. He is 7 for 12 with three doubles and a homer previously three video games towards Philadelphia and New York."It spiraled on me for about six weeks where I felt like I had to do maybe too much for the team,

maybe putting way too much pressure on my shoulders as a hitter," stated Cooper, who made his first All-Star squad in July. "I'm just trying to find my footing again, attacking early and attacking often." TRAINER'S ROOMMets: RF Starling Marte (fractured proper center finger) stays day-to-day and hopeful of avoiding a stint on the injured listing.Marlins: 2B Jazz Chisholm Jr. (decrease again pressure) moved his rehabilitation program to Miami from the membership's spring coaching facility in Jupiter. Chisholm nonetheless has not been cleared for baseball actions.ROSTER MOVEThe Mets despatched RHP Adonis Medina outright to Triple-A Syracuse after he was designated for project Wednesday.UP NEXTMets RHP Carlos Carrasco (13-6, 3.91 ERA) will begin the center sport of the collection Saturday towards RHP Pablo López (8-9, 3.66).

Supernatural - a retrospective

This is super self-indulgent, and I have so much else I’ve promised-- I owe a long-fic rec post, and ao3 comments, wip work, and that’s just my fandom stuff I’m behind on. *sigh*

But it’s late on a Saturday and now I’ve finished Supernatural, I want to share what I think are my top few eps, and a few other comments. I promise some of this will be different from the “greatest hits” you probably usually see, and I’ll try to make it worth your time. *wry smile*

Look, we have to have categories like: “Most Likely to Live in My Head Rent-Free for the Rest of my Life” and “Most Likely to Inspire Unnecessary Fanfiction” that are different from “Favorites,” because that’s just the cursed energy this show has. ;-)

My top five

#5 - 13.01 - “Lost and Found”

Written by: Andrew Dabb | Directed by: Phil Sgriccia

In fandom, this is most often referred to as the start of the “Grieving Widower” arc, tongue-in-cheek. Also has Alexander Calvert (Jack) walking around completely in the nude for the first third of the ep. (Neither of these are why this is in my top 5, but he has a good story about wardrobe for his ‘first day.’)

I didn’t expect much out of this episode the first time I watched it, but I’ve gone over this ‘section’ of the show maybe 3-4 times in my Netflix catch-up, and I watch this one in full every time. From Jack being...not at all what anyone expected and an unsteady vindication, to the stunning cinematography (there’s a post that compares shots to Brokeback Mountain, but I think the shots here might be better), to the sheriff who takes the time to remind her deputy that “...there’s no such thing as ‘weird.’ Everyone’s normal in their own way,” to the slow reveal of exactly how hard the events of the previous night (12x23 - All Along the Watchtower) are hitting Dean and Sam and in different ways...(how long the episode takes to reveal to you how Dean fucked up his hand, and what he was saying when he did. Augh!) The Winchesters are trying to rally, but they have been taking hits for a long time, and the cracks are showing.

#4 - 15.06 - “Golden Time”

Written by: Meredith Glynn | Directed by: John F. Showalter

Supernatural has a terrible track record with representation in all stripes. It is infamously consistent in killing off anyone minority, female, or non-White. One of the interesting things about the chaotic meta-narrative of season 15 is you can see the lack of fucks some of the writer’s room had to give about not even being subtle about tearing down that type of ‘White-male-hero-journey” now that they were in a literal “what will they do, fire me?” situation.

I’m a Cas fan, and this episode, which gives him an actual, ‘case-of-the-week’ hunter’s narrative where he gets to save the day on his own, successfully, was wonderful. I love that for him! But more than that, for me, this episode is emotional to me for other reasons-- the way Dean and Cas circle around each other on their angry phone call (with the body language! They are broadcasting so LOUD and neither can see because they’re on the phone!), Sam’s story here, where he’s inheriting things from Rowena that allow him in turn to save Eileen, to Cas’ speech and quick anger at the lake when you reflect on his entire journey of self-realization from a soldier of blind faith to an agent of free will... “You selfish little men in your positions of authority...” I just... *clears throat, grabs tissue*

#3 - 6.20 - “The Man Who Would Be King”

Written & Directed by: Ben Edlund

Speaking of Cas’ journey... I know some folks don’t like the angst and drama of the ‘Heaven and Hell’ plots of Supernatural, but I am here for it. Oh, did we need another reason to include this episode? This has some of the most metal quotes I have heard from any TV show. Ever.

I mean, look at this:

“If I knew then what I know now, I would have said: Freedom is a length of rope. God wants you to hang yourself with it.”

“Explaining freedom to angels is a bit like explaining poetry to fish.”

The delivery of: “It's not too late. Damn it, Cas! We can fix this!” “Dean, it’s not broken!” is one of those Supernatural bits that will live in my head until the end of time. All of Edlund’s episodes are among my favorites, but this (along with “5.04 - The End”) was on another level.

#2 - 5.16 - “Dark Side of the Moon”

Written by: Andrew Dabb & Daniel Loflin | Directed by: Jeff Wollnough

I think of this episode every time I hear Bob Dylan sing “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door.” This is kinda a giant montage episode, but the connecting concepts are so...satisfying.

“Heaven is your favorite memories.” “ It’s called the axis mundi. It’s a path that runs through heaven. Different people see it as different things. For you, it’s two-lane asphalt.” “This is your idea of heaven? Wow, this was one of the worst nights of my life.” “I don’t think I realized how long you’ve been cleaning up Dad’s messes.” “It’s awesome to finally have an application—a practical application—for string theory.” “Everyone leaves you, Dean. You noticed?” “Why is God talking to me? Gardner-to-gardener, and between us, I think he gets lonely.” “You son of a bitch, I believed in... ” Whoosh.

#1 - 4.01 - “Lazarus Rising”

Written by: Eric Kripke | Directed by: Kim Manners

So...this is the episode where Castiel, angel of thee Lord, shows up. And that’s primarily why it earns the no. 1 spot, because 80% of my enjoyment of Supernatural from this point on was Cas-adjacent. Plus this entire episode just hits. ALL OF IT. Dean’s homecoming. Ruby, my darling. Bobby’s entire vibe. Pamela Barnes, easily one of the most interesting women Supernatural ever introduced. Cas being so hot to say “Hi” to Dean he forgets he wounds people.

But beyond that-- the way the show writes their ‘oh, by the way, angels’ narrative! If you haven’t seen this episode, would you believe me if I told you that THIS EPISODE, the episode where Supernatural said “canonically, Judeo-Christian Heaven is real, btw” involves no churches but does involve a séance, a soulmark handprint brand, and a himbo angel that “gripped you tight and raised you from Perdition”...but they were all “no homo, guys” for years?

Truly no one was out here doing it like Supernatural even back in 2008.

Others--

15.18 - “Despair”

“Most Likely to Live Rent-Free in My Head for the Rest of my Life”

Written by: Robert Berens | Directed by: Richard Speight, Jr.

You know why this episode is here. It broke reality. I could be wrong-- but I’d put good money on this episode being the subject of academic theses in the future. That doesn’t automatically make for interesting story, but...

Has there ever been a case, in a mainstream US TV show where a major lead character (Cas) came out as queer so late in the game in a narratively-important way? I’m not aware of it, but I might just be behind on my television.

This episode has great writing, and (blessedly) amazing direction and blocking anyway. Check out the above gif - that is some next level foreshadowing going on in the cinematography, and this isn’t even the most remarked upon shot in this episode. (Seriously, I had to search for 40 minutes for this gif, please respect my game, lol.) Everyone who was involved in 15x18 is giddy talking about their investment, from the costume designer to the actors to the director to the writer...

...And then a bunch of them steadfastly have avoided posting much Supernatural-related since. So that’s...loud. There is a bunch of subtext in this episode that is screamingly loud; there is a bunch of text in this episode that makes several things clear fandom has been chattering over for years and years. The meta-commentary around this episode continues, months later. There are over 700 fics on AO3 with this episode tag.

I have more to say about the themes of ‘free will’ and ‘love’ and ‘identity’ tied to this episode, but seriously-- you’ve probably read 17 versions of it on Tumblr already, so.

This is the last time we see Cas, and the last time Supernatural can claim anything close to narrative consistency. For that alone, it’d earn free head-space.

Runners-up: “4.20 - The Rapture”; “5.04 - The End”; “7.21 - Reading is Fundamental”; “8.21 - The Great Escapist”; “9.06 - Heaven Can’t Wait”; “12.19 - The Future”; “14.08 - Byzantium”

6.17 - “My Heart Will Go On”/8.07 - “A Little Slice of Kevin”

“Most Likely to Inspire Unnecessary Fanfiction”

Written by: Eric Charmelo & Nicole Snyder (6.17); Brad Buckner & Eugenie Ross-Leming | Directed by: Phil Sgriccia (6.17); Charlie Carner (8.07)

Usually the show kills off it’s “one-episode” female characters, but do you know one time it didn’t? When the Moirai (the Fates - specifically Atropos, the shearer of the Threads of Fate) showed up in canon in 6.17. She was posited to have “two older sisters that were bigger than her- in every sense of the word,” ...and Castiel had to back down when she challenged him to a cosmic game of chicken over the Winchester’s lives.

Then they never returned to that idea again.

“A Little Slice of Kevin” is on here for the opposite reason -- an amazing idea that was really underwritten in the episode it showed up in. Dean Winchester has been dragging himself across the fabric of universes; the literal Word of God is in play in a warehouse in Middle America; Cas is back from Purgatory, but what does that mean, micro and macro? As a person on the street, what would it mean, or feel like, to learn you were a Prophet of the Lord, uncalled? That what you are, everything you are, is a cosmic contingency?

Maybe Fate has an opinion on all these shenanigans?

Perhaps all that doesn’t make sense, but it certainly made an impression on ~2012 me. To this day, it remains the WIP I can open up and fool myself with the ‘twist.’ I wish I remembered where I was going with it so I could finish it.

Runners Up: “2.20 - What Is and What Should Never Be”; “5.04 - The End”; “6.15 - The French Mistake”; 12.12 - “Stuck in the Middle (with you)”; “13.05 - Advanced Thanatology” “14.03 - The Scar”; “14.10 - Nihilism”; “15.15 - Gimme Shelter” ... and “15.20 - Carry On” (obviously)

Fifteen seasons. There were plenty of other episodes I loved that didn’t make these limited lists. But overall -- thank you, Supernatural, for the run. Even if I’m upset at the ending, I can appreciate the game. If you watch the show, what were your favorite episodes?

Wins and answers in short supply as Orioles’ 2018 season careens toward disaster

BALTIMORE — It was somewhere around the seventh batter of the game Tuesday night at Oriole Park at Camden Yards that the sheer, historic depth of the Baltimore Orioles’ hopelessness revealed itself. As Dylan Bundy skulked off the mound having failed to retire…

Donaldson slam ices Orioles and tiny Camden crowd

Click here for More Olympics Updates https://www.winterolympian.com/donaldson-slam-ices-orioles-and-tiny-camden-crowd/

Donaldson slam ices Orioles and tiny Camden crowd

With one swing of the bat, Josh Donaldson turned a tight duel into a blowout and sent the historically meager crowd at Camden Yards scurrying toward the exits.

Donaldson hit his fourth career grand slam, Steve Pearce homered in a third successive game and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Baltimore Orioles 7-1 Monday night before 7,915 chilly fans.

Gametime temperature was 44 degrees, and a slight mist made the conditions even more miserable. That contributed to the lowest paid attendance in the ballpark’s 27-year existence, breaking the previous record of 9.129 for Baltimore versus Tampa Bay on April 12, 2010.

Josh Donaldson hit a grand slam in the top of the 9th Inning to help propel the Toronto Blue Jays 7-1 over the Baltimore Orioles. 2:03

There were no fans at a game on April 29, 2015, when the Orioles hosted the Chicago White Sox in a closed stadium due to security concerns amid civil unrest in Baltimore.

‘Huge lift’

In this one, the Blue Jays were clinging to a 2-1 lead in the ninth before Curtis Granderson drew a bases-loaded walk and Donaldson followed with a shot to center off rookie Nestor Cortes Jr.

“He’s done that many times since he’s been here. Two-run ballgame, that makes a huge difference,” manager John Gibbons said. “That gives the team a huge, huge lift.”

On a raw night far better suited for football, Donaldson — a three-time All-Star — displayed mid-summer form.

“It’s tough to hit anyhow, in general. The conditions definitely make it more difficult,” Donaldson said. “But we have to be professional about it and go out there and do our job.”

That’s certainly how the 34-year-old Pearce operates.

After getting his 500th career hit in the second inning, Pearce put Toronto up 2-0 in the third with a two-run shot off Dylan Bundy (0-1) on a 3-0 pitch. It marked the first time in his career that Pearce, who’s had three separate stints with the Orioles, homered in three consecutive games.

“He’s on a nice little roll,” Gibbons said.

‘We just couldn’t get that big knock’

J.A. Happ (2-1) struck out nine in six innings, allowing one run and five hits. He was 0-3 against the Orioles last season.

Bundy gave up two runs and four hits with 10 strikeouts in seven innings. The right-hander has a 1.35 ERA in three starts, yet remains winless.

“It was one mistake there,” Bundy said of this outing, “but I gave up more runs than we had, so that’s baseball, I guess.”

Manny Machado hit a third-inning homer for the Orioles, who went 0 for 12 with runners in scoring position and stranded 12.

“We just couldn’t get that big knock,” manager Buck Showalter lamented.

Slugger Chris Davis, who’s off to a miserable start, cracked the bat over his knee after striking out in the sixth. He later was thrown out trying to bunt against the shift during an 0-for-4 performance that lowered his batting average to .088.

BALTIMORE | Orioles fall to Blue Jays 6-4 for a team-record 108th loss

New Post has been published on https://www.stl.news/baltimore-orioles-fall-to-blue-jays-6-4-for-a-team-record-108th-loss/172294/

BALTIMORE | Orioles fall to Blue Jays 6-4 for a team-record 108th loss

BALTIMORE — The Baltimore Orioles trudged off the field following a historic loss, still not absorbing that they are part of one of the worst teams in franchise history.

The Orioles lost to the Toronto Blue Jays 6-4 on Tuesday. It was the team’s 108th loss, the most in a season since arriving in Baltimore in 1954.

“You’re either playing in October or you’re not,” manager Buck Showalter said. “But these types of things make people think how far away you are. Like I said before, those things can change quickly. A lot of things can get better.”

The 1988 Orioles opened the season 0-21 and held the previous record for losses with a 54-107 finish. The overall franchise record for defeats is 111 set by the 1939 St. Louis Browns — a mark that could also be eclipsed by this year’s team.

The Orioles led 4-2 in the seventh before a throwing error by third baseman Steve Wilkerson on a grounder by Teoscar Hernández allowed two runs to score. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. followed with a two-RBI single off reliever Paul Fry that that provided the margin of victory.

Gurriel has reached base safely in 34 of his last 38 starts, batting .316 in that stretch.

“I’ve noticed that (pitchers) changed a little bit, the way they approach me, and they are a little bit more careful,” Gurriel said through an interpreter. “But I have to do the same thing on my side to make adjustments. But I hit the ball hard lately, as well. I knew that was going to happen.”

Dylan Bundy (8-15) started strong for the Orioles before being lifted with two outs in the seventh when the game unraveled. He was charged with five runs (two earned) and seven hits and six strikeouts. Bundy did not allow a home run for the first time since June 23, a span of 13 consecutive starts.

“The season ain’t over yet, so I haven’t really wrapped my head around it yet,” Bundy said about the 108 losses. “I haven’t really thought about it too much. Just try to show up to work every day and get better.”

Reliever Jake Petricka (3-1) pitched two scoreless innings. Tyler Clippard held the Orioles down in the eighth, setting up Ken Giles to earn his 23rd save.

“Sometimes you win ugly, sometimes you win pretty,” Toronto manager John Gibbons said.

Cedric Mullins led off the first inning with his fourth home run.

The Orioles extended the lead to 4-0 off Aaron Sanchez in the fourth. Trey Mancini led off with a triple and scored on a sacrifice fly by Breyvic Valera. Mancini was initially called out but a review showed he touched the plate before catcher Reese McGuire applied the tag. DJ Stewart followed with his first career single and Chris Davis scored on a throwing error by right fielder Billy McKinney.

Stewart scored on a throwing error by Sanchez.

“You run through things many times in your head about how you think it’s going to go, but that’s the great thing about this game,” Stewart said about his first hit. “You never know what it will bring you and I’m just happy I got it done.”

The Blue Jays got on the board in the fifth on an RBI single by Dwight Smith Jr. A fielder’s choice by Justin Smoak an inning later cut the margin to 4-2.

ANOTHER FIRST FOR ORIOLES The Orioles players and coaches wore specially designed jerseys and became the first American pro team to wear jerseys with Braille lettering. Tuesday was National Federation of the Blind Night at Oriole Park, in recognition of the team moving its headquarters to Baltimore 40 years ago.

DOMINANCE The Blue Jays have struggled, but more than 20 percent of their wins have come against Baltimore, going 14-4. Toronto can complete a three-game sweep Wednesday.

TRAINER’S ROOM Orioles: RHP Alex Cobb (blister) threw off a mound, but there is no timetable for his return. RHP Andrew Cashner is making progress with his injured knee, but manager Buck Showalter was uncertain if he will be pitch again this season. “Obviously, they’re both going to be with us next year and that will take precedent, to make sure that it’s in the best interest of their health,” Showalter said. . Rookie RHP Luis Ortiz (hamstring) will not pitch over the final two weeks.

UP NEXT Blue Jays: Marco Estrada (7-12, 5.75 ERA) was moved up a day after throwing only 55 pitches in his last outing against the Yankees, allowing eight runs and six hits.

Orioles: Jimmy Yacabonis (0-2, 7.22 ERA) will make his fifth start of the season.
