On Missing a Triple
Briefly

Aw, I missed a triple? I did. I nodded off in the seventh, shortly after Jose Butto came on in relief of Paul Blackburn, the score at Coors Field knotted at two. That'll happen with any game that starts any time after 7:10 where I sit; then stretch out; then close my eyes for just a little bit, I'm sure.
While I was in the process of discerning there were two out, Edwin finished striking out Charlie Blackmon. 'And the ballgame is over!' I didn't have the energy to stay awake for the postgame show, but I reached for my phone, clicked on the At Bat app, and satisfied my curiosity at how a game that had been tied for so long went the Mets' way.
