2023 LCS Game/Discussion Thread: Battle of Texas, Philly vs NL West WC Redux

[Pandemonium67]

Harper's only went 444.

 

[LogansDad]

My god.

 

[patinorange]

Yikes

 

[derekson]

"Only' 112.4 MPH exit velocity

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Ball be juiced.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Maybe not let anyone face those two guys a third time?

 

[LogansDad]

4 batters ago, Corbin Carroll came 5 feet from tying this game up.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

YOu have to think if game 4 wasn't a full bullpen game that Lovullo would have removed Gallen by now.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Did Harper look into the Arizona dugout? I wonder if they’ve been chirping at him since the Moreno play.

 

[Ted Cox 4 president]

Yeah—90+ pitches now.

 

[LogansDad]

What a hit by Stott.

 

[McBride11]

No one warming? They just sacrificing Gallen to rest BP?

 

[Max Power]

How are they not even going out to talk to him? At least give him a breather even if you don't have anything useful to say.

 

[Fred in Lynn]

Did Harper look into the Arizona dugout? I wonder if they’ve been chirping at him since the Moreno play.

Just before the Stott single? Nah. He was just looking around.

Or you let him sit in the mess that he made.

Apparently Lovullo doesn't want to use up those valuable mound visits. But agreed it was odd letting him rot out there.

 

[Ted Cox 4 president]

Did Harper look into the Arizona dugout? I wonder if they’ve been chirping at him since the Moreno play.

Yes, I think Harper looked into the Arizona dugout on his HR trot.

 

[LogansDad]

Just an awful, awful at bat.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Yes, I think Harper looked into the Arizona dugout on his HR trot.

No, I think he looked into the Phillies dugout

 

[derekson]

Huge inning here for Wheeler. Nails on that slider to get Smith!

 

[Ted Cox 4 president]

No, I think he looked into the Phillies dugout

I’m pretty sure it was after he rounded third.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Smith was simply overmatched. He has no hope in that AB.

 

[Ted Cox 4 president]

Truped.

 

[LogansDad]

I'm about tired of Anderson.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Balls to centerfield here die as though it was the old Tiger Stadium

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Brian Anderson Trupiano

 

[Al Zarilla]

Routine, not near a home run.

 

[soxhop411]

Truped.

[E5 Yaz]

What's Anderson supposed to say there? Gurriel did drive it to CF. It sounded solid and as soon as he saw Sosa, he modulated his tone

 

[LeoCarrillo]

Arizona’s plucky. But man, they could use some more meat.

 

[Ted Cox 4 president]

LOL!

 

[E5 Yaz]

Arizona’s plucky. But man, they could use some more meat.

Yeah, they're 2-3 bats shy

 

[LeoCarrillo]

Knee socks guy

 

[Al Zarilla]

This Castro looks like he doesn't believe in lifting weights. Spider-Man.

 

[E5 Yaz]

LOL, that was funny

 

[LogansDad]

Really nice job by Castro.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

SMASH ONE THE FUCK ON OUT OF HERE, ALEK!

A little late, but I'll take it!

 

[E5 Yaz]

Stott's something else

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Stott...hot damn that play

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Major Perdomo robbery right there.

 

[LogansDad]

Stott is a fucking boss. Damn.

 

[derekson]

What a play by Stott!

 

[Max Power]

STOTT!!!!!!

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Major Perdomo robbery right there.

You are in postseason form.

 

[patinorange]

I have severe defense envy.

 

[Ted Cox 4 president]

I miss Pedroia.

 

[LogansDad]

I have severe defense envy.

Every team left plays good defense.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Every team left plays good defense.

Hmmm, you don't think there's a correlation?

 

[E5 Yaz]

I have severe defense envy.

There ... does that remind you of the Red Sox?

 

[LogansDad]

Marte has been bad on defense in this series.

 

[derekson]

Every team left plays good defense.

Marte disagrees with you
