Mets were this close to ‘disaster’ with Craig Kimbrel-Francisco Alvarez miscommunication

Craig Kimbrel is still working out the kinks with his new team. In his second appearance with the Mets, Kimbrel and catcher Francisco Alvarez got their wires crossed during the sixth inning with two outs on a 2-2 pitch to Shohei Ohtani with the Dodgers leading 4-0. Alvarez called for time while Kimbrel was mid-windup and the veteran reliever nearly threw the ball at the Mets catcher, who was about five steps across home plate toward the pitcher’s mound.
