Keith Hernandez says the weirdest ****, a nice word or three about Vientos' defense doesn't really stand out there, does it?

But -

Keith: "Did you notice, Gary, that it's now dark in the first inning?"

Winter is coming.

I felt almost a bit bad for DJ Herz getting thrashed like that, but not as bad as I feel for him when I see a random Gnats day game (non-Mets) in which he's sent out there in bright sunlight. He must be the whitest whitebread in the league now. I mean, my skin tone perpetually says "Northern European, lives mostly indoors, perhaps a bit ill", but he's *very* pale.

Still not the oddest physique in the majors though, given that Triston McKenzie exists.
