Benge ended the year with 20 HR. But in Great American Ballpark, he'd have 24.

Stewart ended the year with 32 HR. But in Citi Field, he'd have 26.

Benge is a better hitter, runner, and defender. He has a higher average, OBP, and more than 2x Stewart's WAR.

Only six MLB players rank in the 70th percentile or higher in all three of Statcast's Value metrics (batting, baserunning and fielding):

-Pete Crow-Armstrong
-Bobby Witt Jr.
-Corbin Carroll
-Elly De La Cruz
-Otto Lopez
-Carson Benge

Impressive company for the only rookie there.

@Espngreeny still snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. I swear every time that I’m done watching, but I still do.

[Mike Greenberg @Espngreeny]

The improvement in the #Jets is evident and encouraging, but that was an excruciating loss.

Terrible mistakes, questionable decisions, and the coach has absolutely no sense of clock management.

No excuses, they gave it away.

🇺🇸 The Boatlift That Was Bigger Than Dunkirk

At 10:45 a.m. on September 11, 2001, a Coast Guard lieutenant named Mike Day keyed a radio in New York Harbor and said the only sentence that mattered.

“All available boats. This is the United States Coast Guard. Anyone wanting to help with the evacuation of Lower Manhattan, report to Governors Island.”

The boats were already coming.

The bridges were closed. The tunnels were closed. The subways were dead. South of the towers, hundreds of thousands of people had nowhere left to walk. Some jumped into the Hudson. Some stood on seawalls that were never meant to be docks and waited for anything that floated.

Dunkirk took nine days to pull 338,226 Allied soldiers off a beach in 1940.

On 9/11, roughly 800 mariners on about 150 vessels moved as many as 500,000 civilians off Manhattan in about nine hours. Ferries. Tugs. Dinner boats. Pilot boats. Yachts. A retired fireboat. Rubber dinghies that held two people. The largest water evacuation in history.

NY Waterway did not wait for the official call. After the second plane hit, the whole fleet moved. Captain Rick Thornton nosed his ferry against a seawall that was not a slip and started taking people off. Some of them he pulled out of the river. His company alone carried about 158,000 people to Jersey City, Hoboken, Weehawken, Brooklyn, and Queens.

On a normal Tuesday they carried 34,000.

The Staten Island Ferry moved more than 50,000 people and came back the other way with water, bandages, and men who still had work to do in the dust.

The old fireboat John J. Harvey, already retired, tied up near the Museum of Jewish Heritage, took civilians off the seawall, then pumped water when the hydrants downtown died.

Lt. Day later admitted what the day required. “I broke more rules that day than probably I’ve enforced in my whole Coast Guard career.”

In raw numbers it was bigger than Dunkirk. No boat went down. By nightfall the southern tip of Manhattan had been emptied by people who were not on anyone’s list of heroes when the morning started.

They were tug captains. Ferry deckhands. Pilots. A lieutenant with a microphone. Ordinary boats answering one sentence.

All available boats.

@JoeGriese1 @Brewers Joe, longer cleats will get stuck and mess with his delivery. Won’t be able to push off his back foot as easily. Ex catcher solutions guy. Let’s try and get to another game before the end of the season

[Gary Frederick @GaryFredToyota]

@notgaetti Rey Ordonez was the human vacuum cleaner at shortstop

[Not Gaetti @notgaetti]

The modern brain cannot comprehend the level of defense Rey Ordonez brought to the shortstop position

There are guys today with strong arms and who have great range and who hit a billion times better than him, but Rey was a straight up sorcerer out there

[Gary Frederick @GaryFredToyota]

Crazy! The corners of the outfield looks great!

[SleeperMets @SleeperMets]

INSANE.

The Mets are the first team since at least 1920 to record three outfield assists at home in the first two innings of a game.

AJ Ewing and Carson Benge are SPECIAL ⭐️⭐️

(Via @SNY_Mets)

[MLB @MLB]

Mets outfielders cut down runs at the plate THREE DIFFERENT TIMES with outfield assists!

They ended up winning the game 2-1 and have won 10 of 13 overall! #LongGameMoments

[Gary Frederick @GaryFredToyota]

@BatyIsKing_ That kid can run too. Great throw to nail the guy at the plate

[Gary Frederick @GaryFredToyota]

@SNY_Mets @SNYtv He sounds heartbroken

[Gary Frederick @GaryFredToyota]

@MichaelGrunow @NYNJHarper We were also close to taking 2 of 3 from the Brewers. The error in right by Baty hurt us in that game

[Gary Frederick @GaryFredToyota]

@NflGbp @JustinCLeto The mid to late 70’s teams were pretty bad too. This is worse because of the money they spent to get here

[Gary Frederick @GaryFredToyota]

@briannalyman2 Thank you for your hard work bringing the story of our Independence to the masses it was great learning a few new things and remembering old stories. Great Job

[Gary Frederick @GaryFredToyota]

[Gary Frederick @GaryFredToyota]

@1scottishbanter They should come to Wisconsin and party

[James Melville 🚜 @JamesMelville]

The Tartan Army are an absolute credit to Scotland. Here they are heading towards Fenway Park for a Boston Red Sox baseball match…to the sound of bagpipes, obviously!
