WS Game 6

[Bigpupp]

Reynolds is right on.  That was awful third base coaching.

He sent him though, didn't he?

Reynolds is right on.  That was awful third base coaching.

Twitter says 3B coach was waving him in

 

[ThePrideofShiner]

Is that a prediction? Or do you have a real early broadcast.

 
My radio broadcast is at least 10 seconds faster than the TV broadcast. It's pretty annoying.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

He could have scored. Missed the 3B coach waving him in

 
Harold was right -- the coach was way too close to the bag, and the signal was so late Cain had already put on the brakes and then it was too late.  Third base coach gakked that one in a major way, though given Peavy's numbers against Country Waffle House, holding may have been the right play there anyway.  I think if Cain is loping around third and gets an early signal and doesn't slow, it takes a perfect play to get him.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

He sent him though, didn't he?

 
Yeah, but way late and he was standing next to the bag instead of up the line.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Ventura's hat has me thinking: was it John Dopson or Aaron Sele who put 35 RL on their hat after Reggie Lewis died?

It was Mo Vaughn.

 

[E5 Yaz]

 
Yeah, but way late and he was standing next to the bag instead of up the line.

 
With two out, he was probably caught anticipating not having the third out made at the plate, and got caught in no man's land when the slip happened

 

[Al Zarilla]

Went back and Cain was kind of dogging it between first and second though, expecting to be stopping at second. He turned on the jets when Ishi fell, but lost a second maybe. 

 

[Rasputin]

Stark:  Since 1982 home teams are 22-3 in Games 6 & 7 of the WS.

 
For those who are dying to know, the three road winners are
 
Yankees at Phillies, Game 6 2009
Marlins at Yankees, Game 6 2003
Indians at Marlins, Game 6, 1997

 

[soxhop411]

Pence is on fire

 

[Savin Hillbilly]

Oh mama.

 

[Al Zarilla]

 
My radio broadcast is at least 10 seconds faster than the TV broadcast. It's pretty annoying.

I tried that with KNBR, SF, two games ago, and it was about a pitch and a half faster. That's probably 20 plus seconds. A lot more info to be processed for TV, HD and all, so the sound is delayed. Too bad. I guess there are synch devices.

 

[ThePrideofShiner]

Aoki is a zoo out there. I could see him pulling a Nelson Cruz before this night is done.

 

[E5 Yaz]

It would be nice if Gordon stepped up here

The Yankees won Game 6 at home. Matsui rocked Pedro at the Stadium that night.

 

[soxhop411]

That is disgusting

Who the hell wants fritos on pizza?!

 

[E5 Yaz]

Aoki is a zoo out there. I could see him pulling a Nelson Cruz before this night is done.

 
I was thinking the other day why Aoki over Dyson who -- despite the bobble in Game 5 -- is clearly the better defender and isn't awful at the plate

 

[MakMan44]

Peavy doesn't look great. Might want to get someone up. 
 
EDIT: I'm a fucking wizard

 

[Al Zarilla]

 
With two out, he was probably caught anticipating not having the third out made at the plate, and got caught in no man's land when the slip happened

Third out at third base is the mantra for badness.

 

[donutogre]

Welp.

 

[glasspusher]

The moose is loose

 

[MakMan44]

Surprised Belt didn't at least knock that down

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

The Royals won the Peavy trade.

 

[Savin Hillbilly]

Jake Peavy: hittable.

The most talented Giants team never even made the playoffs (in a 102-win season!)
 

 
Hmmm.  The 1993 team won 103 out of 162 games and finished second in their division, true.
 
But some other Giants teams might take offense at being left out of the "most talented" category. 
 
1962: won 101 out of 162, then beat the Dodgers in a playoff to reach the World Series, in which they lost 4-3 to the Yankees. 
 
1912: won 103 out of 151, then lost to Red Sox in the World Series 4-3
 
1905: won 103 out of 145, beat Philadelphia Athletics to win the World Series 4-1.
 
1904: won 106 out of 153, no World Series

 

[donutogre]

Going to a show in SF tonight. Glad to know I won't have to worry about hordes of celebrators on my way home.

 

[glasspusher]

Jake Peavy: hittable.

The American League says "Welcome Back"

 

[soxhop411]

Bad AB

 

[Al Zarilla]

Infante looked like a green rook there. 

 

[Seabass]

Terrible AB -- Peavy didn't throw a strike to Infante.

 

[soxhop411]

Terrible AB -- Peavy didn't throw a strike to Infante.

He would swing at a pitch out

 

[MakMan44]

Bad AB

Feels like Infante has a lot of them, but my memory is pretty shitty.

 

[Savin Hillbilly]

Infante looked like a green rook there. 

 
Yeah, weak sauce for a guy who's supposed to be a decent hitter.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Bad AB

 
"Get a good pitch to hit!"

 

[Al Zarilla]

Did Rags tell him to not throw a strike?

 

[glasspusher]

wow, just wow. Sloppy defense?

 

[soxhop411]

Wut?

 

[Harry Hooper]

Great running there by the batter.

 

[Savin Hillbilly]

He would swing at a pitch out

 
He's actually pretty much average in O-swing%.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Nice job Peavy!  Lol.

 

[glasspusher]

wow, Belt slipped on his ass after that, a run could have scored

 

[soxhop411]

Let's go Aoki!

 

[Harry Hooper]

Someone tell Peavy no one ran home.

 

[donutogre]

For those on Gameday, WTF just happened? 

 

[Hyde Park Factor]

Well, this is certainly a Giant pickle.

 

[Savin Hillbilly]

"No sign of Lopez"? In the second fucking inning?

 

[soxhop411]

"No sign of Lopez"? In the second fucking inning?

He is warming

 

[Scoops Bolling]

For those on Gameday, WTF just happened? 

Groundball to the right side, Peavy yells "home" which makes the fielder hesitate, it turns into a footrace to first...and Escobar wins handily.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

For those on Gameday, WTF just happened? 

 
Slow roller to 1B.  Peavy seemed to think contact was on or was too blind to know the runner wasn't trying to score, so he pointed home, causing the first baseman to temporarily freeze, and then he couldn't get the out at first.

No dp pls
