ALCS: Yankees vs Astros (Non-Yankees Fan Version)

[brandonchristensen]

Morton has a full run better FIP.

 

[fineyoungarm]

Maine topped Albany in a Division 1 classic today.

 

[fineyoungarm]

Papi and Arod talking baseball is OK in my book.

 

[fineyoungarm]

This right now on the pre-game is pretty good.

 

[Al Zarilla]

This right now on the pre-game is pretty good.

The Big Hurt is good too. Even Keith Hernandez seems to have been beaten down by Papi’s humor, ditching the ‘86 crap.

 

[staz]

WE'RE TAKIN' THIS SHIT, BITCHES. ENOS IS IN DA HOUSE!

You DAMN right.



you DAAAAY-um RYE

 

[Al Zarilla]

Joe: a game 7 in hockey, especially if it goes to OT, has gotta be it for sports exciting.

 

[AimingForYoko]

I hope Altuve saved some offense for tonight.

Cabell does not look as kind as Cruz.

Papi looks like he was born with a bat in his hand.

 

[since '75]

that crowd sounds awesome...hope they have reason to cheer all night!

 

[fineyoungarm]

Hmm - although the strike two call was a wee gift.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Putting a little bit of that sticky gum on the fingers.

 

[Al Zarilla]

I see Gardner’s head and I immediately think my TV is out of adjustment. Remember the old vertical and horizontal adjustments?

Only too well, along with "contrast".

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

What a start for Morton

 

[AimingForYoko]

Amazing start!

Now slap CC around early and often

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Only too well, along with "contrast".

I never could figure out what the contrast button really did. Seemingly very little

 

[canyoubelieveit]

Nice start to the 2004 Derek Lowe re-enactment. Please, please score in the first, Houston.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Only too well, along with "contrast".

I still have contrast. You don’t, or is this like a planned swinging bunt setup?

 

[staz]

Cabell does not look as kind as Cruz.

we win, you got no problem with me
we lose, you got a BIG MOTHERFUCKING PROBLEM WITH ME

and FUCK the roolz... 24 outs to go.

 

[fineyoungarm]

It had to be totally bogus.

 

[Madmartigan]

Pound the shit out of CC please, he's not that good

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

The outs thing works better when our team actually has a lead

 

[fineyoungarm]

Large strike zone.

 

[canyoubelieveit]

The Astros are going to have two on with two outs this inning. It's all about whether or not someone can get a big two out hit.

 

[staz]

The outs thing works better when our team actually has a lead

worked just fine last night

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

They need to swinging bunt on CC

 

[mauidano]

Keep the line moving!

 

[Al Zarilla]

Wide zone again? One bad call for each team so far.

 

[staz]

THAT'S what I'm talkin' about!

 

[The Filthy One]

That was a meatball.

 

[fineyoungarm]

A tiny smile crosses my face.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

worked just fine last night

Whatever works, brutha

 

[mauidano]

They need to swinging bunt on CC

Like that?

 

[canyoubelieveit]

Spiringer's ALCS numbers are similar to Damon's in 2004, who also led off game 7 with a single and went on to have a pretty good game if I recall.

 

[AimingForYoko]

Cmon Altuve!

 

[mauidano]

For crissake Lil' Joey.

 

[bob burda]

In the 70's Lolich and Wilbur Wood once matched up in a game some sportswriter called "The Battle of the Bulge," but those guys were both svelte compared to CC. Was Terry Forster this porky, maybe?

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

The CC at the plate has this

 

[Al Zarilla]

Astros swinging early. What pitch are they afraid of if/when it gets to 2 strikes?

 

[DeadlySplitter]

easy to say, but did they swing too early there?

 

[staz]

Fine.

But C.C.'s in for a rough night if he has to rely on the BABIP gods.

 

[AimingForYoko]

Did Hinch give another "don't panic" speech?

 

[canyoubelieveit]

Gah, a little overanxious there.

 

[FelixMantilla]

Hack hack hack hack.

 

[Captaincoop]

I haven't seen CC this focused since those guys from Lincoln High trashed his Camaro.

 

[Erik Hanson's Hook]

You can literally see CC's belly jiggling under his uniform. He makes Panda look like a triathlete.

 

[staz]

I haven't seen CC this focused since those guys from Lincoln High trashed his Camaro.

or since he was 4th in line at a steak buffet, with only 3 steaks left in the chaffing dish

 

[Al Zarilla]

Those things are the color of a Mucinex ad.
