Seat on the Korner: Nathaniel Lowe
We select the star of the game and virtually invite him to a Seat on the Korner, just as Ralph Kiner used to do for his studio postgame show on WOR-channel 9 broadcasts in the early decades of the Mets.
Today's seat on the korner belongs to Nathaniel Lowe who redeemed his self after hittng into a key double play in the 6th to get Tylor Megill through a tough six inning, but his 2 out 2 RBI single to give the Rangers a 4-3 lead in the ninth earns him a seat on the Korner.

Turning Point
Nathaneil Lowe who almost was the turning point on the losing end as he hit into a key double play in the 6th to get Tylor Megill through a tough six inning, but his 2 out 2 RBI single to give the Rangers a 4-3 lead is the turning point of the game.
