Dom Hamel we hardly knew you!! Hope you clear waivers, bud. You will always be the MLB-record-breaking 46th pitcher the New York Mets were forced to use in a single season due to a series of ailments and flaws.

This week on Hits Different, we are just trucking along. We are just doing our best! Poor Ellen was not upright for a lot of this. I showed everyone my heinous and tragic prize from the Mets Memorabilia Store "mystery grab bag" experience.

Lest you forget, Pete hit a walk-off home run and went bubble gum bucket to the head. Katia Lindor is the most glamorous woman in New York. 30,000 people got ready to fight a probably nice and normal San Diego pitcher because he hit Francisco Alvarez our ANGEL!!! with a baseball!!! those things are hard!!!!! Brett is on the flag now. Everyone keeps saying "piggy-back."

Uploading this AFTER Pete Alonso single-handedly saved the Mets season. Pete Alonso Met for life. Pete Alonso greatest Met of all time. Sorry for the delay. This week on Hits Different, we're talking about what some are calling the most cursed week of baseball in history. After a spectacular NOBLETIGER situation in which Edwin Diaz took his shoes off on the mound and then destroyed the Cincinnati Reds, the Mets went 1-6 in devastating fashion. Dear lord.

We're talking about the "extremophiles" living in the Gowanus Canal, Harrison Bader's horrific heel-turn, the President's visit to Yankee Stadium, and whether it's better to watch your team flop so hard that the end of the season is chill and silly or whether it's better to CLING TO HOPE until the bitter end.

Official Hits Different ruling: Ya gotta believe!

David is on vacation, Ellen is back from vacation! She tells us all about her new favorite ballpark (omg) and another ballpark she went to last week that she also liked but not as much. We spent more time than we felt good about trying to figure out when Pete and Haley Alonso are having their baby. Sorry, it was girl talk! This isn't a Larry Stylinson, Babygate situation, we're just excited.

Longgggggg episode this week. Girl talk!

I'm posting this right after the Mets lost the series to the Reds, so I feel vindicated in having been a bit of a bummer on mic a couple days ago. I had been thinking "that was wrong of me." No. Always right!

Producer Nathan and I will be going to Yankee Stadium on 9/11. If any Yankees fans listen to this (eek!!) please let us know what the best snacks are. As you know, I can't have anything with ketchup because your stadium does not provide Heinz.

Let's go Mets!
