Unreal circus catch wins it!
With two out and two on for the Mets, trailing 2-1 in the last of the sixth, a fly ball to deep centerfield was bobbled when Rocket and Hal collided, but somehow Rocket was able to lunge to the ground and secure the catch to salvage the game, sending the Royals bench into pandemoinum. The ball had bounced off both players and somehow ended up in Rocket's hands as both players collided and fell to the ground in deep center. Both the Royals runs came off losing pitcher B-Dubs (0-3) in strange ways. In the opening frame, Jabrone missed Rocket en route to third on a fairly easy peg, allowing him to trot home. In the second inning, B-Dubs' pick off move went horribly wrong when he faked a pickoff throw and the ball slipped out of his hand, allowing Rocket to easily scamper home from third for the second run. The Mets made it 2-1 in the fourth with some small ball when Yo and Legs opened the inning with two singles, and then two ground outs got a run home. Torpedo (3-1) got the win, despite fanning only four but getting a strong effort from his defense.
