Mariners vs. Astros ALDS Thread

[LogansDad]

Jesus fucking christ

 

[Ted Cox 4 president]

Grr . . .

 

[Catcher Block]

That was not the swing he needed there. Put the ball on the ground.

 

[Ale Xander]

How did this Seattle team make the playoffs?

I'm guessing pitching and playing the A's and Rangers 18 times each

 

[Ale Xander]

Teams should be able to bring players back into the game in extra innings. This game needs fresh hitters.

Definitely by inning 19 would be fair.

 

[E5 Yaz]

I was at Safeco for the 19-inning game that Mike Cameron won for Seattle with a home run off Jeff Fassero.
Thanks for the reminder

How did this Seattle team make the playoffs?

I mean, they’ve played three very tight games against the best team in the AL, a team that dominated them in the regular season.

Aesthetics aside, they’ve acquitted themselves relatively well this postseason.

 

[brandonchristensen]

this is awful

 

[brandonchristensen]

This game feels how long an early 2000's Sox and Yankees 9 inning game felt.

 

[johnmd20]

That will do it.

 

[Ale Xander]

Left Murphy in too long

 

[LogansDad]

Ahhhhh fuck

 

[Catcher Block]

That did not look like it was going to get out.

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

Please let that be enough to end this thing.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Solo dong for the win.

 

[Obscure Name]

Good. I hate Seattle now.

 

[brandonchristensen]

A game of redemption. what?

 

[LogansDad]

Sticking with Murfee?? Whhhhaaaa?

 

[Ale Xander]

Nice catch, Mendoza

 

[brandonchristensen]

Mariners are terrible.

 

[phrenile]

Eh, just tie it up in the bottom half and go another fifteen innings.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Bregman is so punchable.

 

[LogansDad]

And there go the wheels

 

[Ale Xander]

Don’t know why no one does this on purpose (this seemed accodental)

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

That’s a good eat by France. There’s no telling where a throw would’ve gone.

 

[Ale Xander]

Murfee’s law suggests you probably need to score a run in innings 9-17

 

[mauidano]

It was fun while it lasted.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

I was at Safeco for the 19-inning game that Mike Cameron won for Seattle with a home run off Jeff Fassero.
Thanks for the reminder

I just looked at the box score. The Red Sox scored 4 runs in the 3rd inning and then 16 scoreless innings.

 

[AB in DC]

Sticking with Murfee?? Whhhhaaaa?

It's him or Robbie Ray.

 

[Ale Xander]

I think M’s get two

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Kelenic, Crawford, Julio.

The Ms are down to their last out.

 

[E5 Yaz]

o/u on pitches it takes to strike out Kelenic is set at 2.5

 

[brandonchristensen]

The series was over after blowing game 1. That was so awful they deserve this.

 

[Ale Xander]

They got anyone to hit for Crawford?

 

[LogansDad]

Had no idea Dubon was on this team

 

[canderson]

Thanks for playing, Seattle. Houston vs NYY will be a war.

 

[mauidano]

“Kelenic rolls over” is quite apropos.

 

[E5 Yaz]

That might set a record for ground balls to first

 

[scottyno]

The series was over after blowing game 1. That was so awful they deserve this.

How exactly would winning game 1 have helped them to get Alvarez out in game 2 or score some runs today?

 

[LogansDad]

Hell of a last game in Seattle, Kelenic

 

[voidfunkt]

Watching these weak slappy swings from Mariner hitters is frustrating

 

[mauidano]

I might have to cheer for the MFY’s before I can cheer for the Astors.

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

I might have to cheer for the MFY’s before I can cheer for the Astors.

Cheer for the nuke.

 

[LogansDad]

This is a hell of a performance by Garcia.

 

[LogansDad]

Sad

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

Garcia was fucking nails.

 

[brandonchristensen]

How exactly would winning game 1 have helped them to get Alvarez out in game 2 or score some runs today?

It doesn't "help them" but they've been completely dead since that happened. They were fired up and exciting through the wild card and through game 1 until that happened. They've looked like a different team since then.

Not everything is on the stat sheet.

 

[johnmd20]

Just a pathetic display by the Mariner hitters.

 

[Ale Xander]

Poor amariners fans

spend a boatload for a playoff game first time in 20 years and you get6 hours and no runs

Up 7 to 3 in the 8th and just rolling and losing the way they did was definitely a dagger.

 

[phrenile]

You hate to see a short series small sample random number generator generate the expected numbers.
