This has turned into a gorgeous day for baseball here in Atlanta. Niese versus Hudson makes for a good pitching matchup. Should be a fun one

I hate the Braves and their dumbass extra half an hour on normal start times.
— Matthew Falkenbury (@dailystache) May 5, 2013
Fun fact: 44.4% of the Braves lineup today is named with Upton or Johnson.

lucas duda swings and misses at a pitch out of the strike zone on 3-1. i’m guessing some fans are ecstatic at his GRITTY AGGRESSIVENESS

Superman… I mean… Matt Harvey: “I feel like I can go out there [and throw] 120, 130 pitches each time. My body can handle it.”

A horrendous misplay by Byrd in RF turns a fly out into a triple for Uggla.

The fireworks every time a Braves pitcher strikes out a batter is a bit much…

Tim Hudson is a hot knife. The Mets lineup is butter. The Citi Tuesdays commercial makes me want to stab myself with the knife.

Duda totally misplayed that ball 2 run double

Meanwhile, back at Turner Field, Andrelton Simmons groundout ends 5-run 3rd. 11 batters in inning. #Braves 5, #Mets 0, after 3.

WELP. I don’t want to be compiling the #MetsTwitterRecap anymore today.

David Wright has homered in three straight games.

David. Allen. Wright. El Capitan. Two run homer, 16th career at Turner, 3rd against Tim Hudson #Mets

The Giancarlo Stanton-less Miami Marlins just put up a five-spot on Roy Halladay in the first inning. Sometimes it’s good to be a #Mets fan.

Poor effort by Niese today. Sure, defense killed him, but he walked 6 batters in 5+. Not going to work #Mets
— Michael Baron (@michaelgbaron) May 5, 2013
Each mediocre/bad start has had a reasonable enough excuse, but at some point you’d like to see a few legit good outings from Niese.

WHAT THE FUCK BUCK CATCH THE GODDAMN BALL

Also, fuck Turner Field, the fans, the tomahawk chop, Ted Turner, Tina Turner, Justin Turner, and Justin Long.
— Mitch Rapp (@MitchNYM) May 5, 2013
So Jon Niese final line. 4.0 IP, 7 H, 7 R, 7 ER, 6 BB, 3 K. Not good defense, but boxscore won’t reflect that. No official errors.
— Adam Rubin (@AdamRubinESPN) May 5, 2013
I was wondering what the point was of showing Jon Niese’s Bruce Banner walk down the hallway. Then he spit on the carpet and I felt better.
— Metstradamus (@Metstradamus) May 5, 2013
Oh right, Mets never get out of Turner Field without at least one of abomination of a game.

Mrs Recap just walked in the room, saw the score and asked “Why are you still watching this” and now I’m having an existential crisis.

Keith said Jeter again. Can the @sny producer please make him go stand in the corner? #Mets

Tejada with the nice Tejada™ jump play.

I’m willing to ban shortstops jumping to eliminate Jeter references from my life. Too much? SHUT UP IT’S 8-2 AND I’M MAD. #Mets

Lucas Duda singles with a runner in scoring position after taking four pitches. #approach #analysis
— Chris McShane (@chrismcshane) May 5, 2013
#Mets are a Justin Turner grand slam away from making this a one-run game. Wonder what their win expectancy is right at this moment.
— Anthony DiComo (@AnthonyDiComo) May 5, 2013
I was about to praise Terry for pulling Davis against a tough lefty, but then he used Turner over Brown/Lagares.
— Jeffrey Paternostro (@jeffpaternostro) May 5, 2013
Turner, BTW, is pinch-hitting for the #Mets‘ leading home run leader from last season. Ike not allowed to hit against the lefty.
— Anthony DiComo (@AnthonyDiComo) May 5, 2013
DAMMIT STOP USING TURNER!
— Steve Smistermet (@_mistermet) May 5, 2013
justin turner draws the clutch RBI walk, unlike unclutch duda who swung at a baseball today

@kburkhardtsny This game is thisclose to becoming a repeat of what happened on July 30, 2000.

Where’s Mike Piazza to cap this inning with a 3 run homer to left?
— Tejesh (@MetsProspectHub) May 5, 2013
Byrd whiffs, slams his bat and helmet down in disgust. #Mets still down four runs entering bottom of the eighth.
