WS Game 7: A Curse Dies and a Curse Continues

He is a plus baserunner. It was because of that and not Davis' throw that really allowed him to score on that tag earlier.
Like I said, in terms of tools, its Trout, him and Betts and maybe Harper. The other guys are the next level down.
Yeah, eager to see the pitchfx chart for that AB, looked like Miller got squeezed at least twice.
Next year will be interesting to see if Harper was injured or a one year wonder.
This...Until this one is actually over, I wouldn't be counting any chickens. Chapman could very well come in, and throw 20 straight pitches to the backstop. Every now and again, the wild thing comes out.
Agree with the decision to leave Hendricks in.
That said, Cleveland needed the Cubs bats to sleep for one more game. They didn't.
This win for the city of Chicago tonight will be merely cold comfort as the Bulls are going down to the Celtics in a key early November regular season tilt.
Apologies if this has been covered, but the Wrigley Field LiveCam is pretty entertaining right about now.
Kluber is on his second straight start on short rest and Miller has been ridden hard all month. Not really a shock that they would eventually falter.
Is anyone else waiting for Steve Bartman riding a billy goat to emerge from the Indians dugout?
Well, unless his coaches gave him an indication. Or Miller himself. Don't forget that Miller before he playoffs was mostly a one inning guy. That he's been able to pitch multiple innings all playoffs has been amazing but it has to take a toll. And Tito probably saw it coming in some way – thus the slow hooks once they were up 3-1.
And...that pitch to Bryant was strike 3.
There are SO many Cubs fans there. Wow. An embarrassment for Cleveland to cash out their tickets.
I wonder why teams don't often open up their park for away postseason games and show games on their huge scoreboards (for a nominal fee.) I also wonder why putting Lester in with a runner on first is a good idea.
Yeah, oddly I wanted Henricks out after 3 and now I think they should ride him until the 7th.
Hendricks has to be like, "Are you fucking kidding me?" I led the league in ERA and just got squeezed like Charmin and now you're pulling me?
