Okay. I’m gonna call it before @HowieRose does: “Oba-La-Di! Oh, Bleday! Life goes on…” @MetsBooth @KeithRaad #bleday #mets #reds

[Susan Laney Spector @PerfectPitchMLB]

@Eanagy33 @MetsBooth Yes, beautiful!!

[Susan Laney Spector @PerfectPitchMLB]

@MetsBooth Oh, thank you, dear friend!! That’s the line!!

[Susan Laney Spector @PerfectPitchMLB]

Okay, @MetsBooth. The Figaro duet totally made up for missing playing Gene Krupa last week. Bit of pop culture trivia: that duet was used to great effect in Shawshank. Thank you, @HowieRose for sharing with us the FULL unexpurgated version of how you ended up at the opera. Once.

[Susan Laney Spector @PerfectPitchMLB]

@MetsBooth No worries. I’m just always impressed with your outros when a musical reference is made. And I loved that Howie mentioned a jazz musician. @HowieRose @KeithRaad

[Susan Laney Spector @PerfectPitchMLB]

I’m counting on you, Mag, at the end of this inning… 🎶🎵@MetsBooth #genekrupa

[Susan Laney Spector @PerfectPitchMLB]

@HowieRose Hahahahaha

[Susan Laney Spector @PerfectPitchMLB]

I loved this a year ago, and I loved remembering it again today! How cool that must have felt, if a little strange! Great call, Howie, and hopefully another “fairy tale” season will come along soon! #mets

[Howie Rose @HowieRose]

Quite simply, one of the most surreal experiences of my career.

@SNY_Mets @Mets Tong looks like he's starting the dance from the "When You're a Jet" song from "West Side Story" ( When You're a Met? ).

[Susan Laney Spector @PerfectPitchMLB]

@AlbaneseLaura @JomboyMedia Nope.

I left Section 318 in the 8th, and I just couldn’t not look—sort of like Lot’s wife. The vivid description of the Phillies fan in the back of 317 provided by Howie Rose and Keith Raad proved to be dead on. I happened to see the MooMoo mascot right after that, and, well… #mets

[Susan Laney Spector @PerfectPitchMLB]

@KeithRaad @MetsBooth @HowieRose I guess we should be grateful that the Phillies fan at the back of Section 317 is not in the batter’s eye (even if he’s unfortunately in the “announcer’s eye.”)🤪

[Susan Laney Spector @PerfectPitchMLB]

Dumb question. If the parabolic dishes are a set up for TBS tomorrow night, why are they intolerable tonight for Bohm or anyone else—especially since they’ve been there for four innings already. WTF?! @metsbooth @HowieRose @KeithRaad #mets

[Susan Laney Spector @PerfectPitchMLB]

@KeithRaad @MetsBooth @HowieRose Ah!

[Susan Laney Spector @PerfectPitchMLB]

@NYMetsFaithful @StevenACohen2 @Mets Terrible. I hate that that is still happening and that fans encourage that.

A wise bit of advice for the Anti vaccine crowd.

The Arlington Affront angered me. I put my thoughts into my first Substack post: https://t.co/mVyMUpwHFc #arlington #arlingtoncemetery #supportourvets

.@AliceCoote A bit tardy, but BRAVISSIMA for your recent performance at @bbcproms , dear Alice!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Oh how we have missed your gorgeous voice and inspired nuanced interpretations here on the other side of the pond.

[Susan Laney Spector @PerfectPitchMLB]

@roseandfriends @santafeopera @bruno_ravella You look awesome, sir!!

[Susan Laney Spector @PerfectPitchMLB]

@HowieRose I love that song too, Howie, and listened to a lot of Bread back in the day. Thank you for the reminder!
