ALCS gamethread Royals vs. O's

[nvalvo]

With the bases loaded? 

 
You have to send all the runners. 

 

[FredCDobbs]

Davis is sick

 

[HriniakPosterChild]

Shoulda stole home

 

[Sprowl]

Did Wade Davis just hit 97?

 

[HriniakPosterChild]

They need a roof

 

[Greg29fan]

easy cheese

 

[Stanley Steamer]

Wow, living dangerously.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Are you on Nelli terms with Cruz?

I tried to emasculate him by making his name sound feminine. Sorry. Anger brought out my inner misogynist. But I'm working on it.

 

[MakMan44]

Double play was predictable

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Davis has thrown 14 pitches or so thus far.

 

[HriniakPosterChild]

Walk the juicer?

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

Did Wade Davis just hit 97?

I seem to recall him being a low 90s guy in Tampa ?

 

[mauidano]

Walk the juicer?

Buck would and it would pay off. 

 

[Stanley Steamer]

Rick Sutcliffe and Gary Thorne challenging the Obvious record.

 

[FredCDobbs]

Ned Stark is DEALING

 

[Al Zarilla]

 
You have to send all the runners. 

I think the fear is the hitter just bunts it 3 feet, catcher pounces on it, spins and touches the plate - force out. 

 

[Hank Scorpio]

Walk the juicer?

 
97 MPH on the wrist would be better

 

[Sprowl]

Crikey. Bring me your poor, your tired, your failed starters, and they shall throw an unhittable late inning. Andrew Miller and Wade Davis left the rotation and saw God.

 

[mauidano]

DAVIS!

 

[Greg29fan]

Wade Davis is like nah

 

[Al Zarilla]

Walk the juicer?

Nah.

 

[MakMan44]

Bonus baseball!

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Wade Davis gives exactly zero fucks about Nelson Cruz, teams of destiny or squanders.  

 

[nvalvo]

Wait... was that 94 MPH pitch really a "breaking ball?"
 
Not a naaaaasty Good-Daniel-Bard style two seamer?
 
Damn. 

 

[HriniakPosterChild]

I think the fear is the hitter just bunts it 3 feet, catcher pounces on it, spins and touches the plate - force out. 

Fear of DP isn't factor, of course

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

If it was the regular season ,they wouldn't be playing in this shower, right? Why now, when games are even more important?

 

[Stanley Steamer]

Nice Wade. Remember when he was the throw-in with Shields, when TB fleeced the Royals?

 

[nvalvo]

I think the fear is the hitter just bunts it 3 feet, catcher pounces on it, spins and touches the plate - force out. 

 
The other fear, though, is that O'Day gets slow-ass Butler to hit a ground ball. 

 

[HriniakPosterChild]

Wade Davis gives exactly zero fucks about Nelson Cruz, teams of destiny or squanders.  

Can he hit?

 

[Al Zarilla]

Fear of DP isn't factor, of course

They hope a guy like Billy can hit a 300 foot fly ball.

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

I tried to emasculate him by making his name sound feminine. Sorry. Anger brought out my inner misogynist. But I'm working on it.

TV money.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Nice Wade. Remember when he was the throw-in with Shields, when TB fleeced the Royals?

 
He may prove to be more valuable than Shields is to the Royals chances.  The Royals made out pretty well on that deal regardless.  Of course, the prospect humpers here will never agree or admit it.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

If you have a question that starts with "why," see if you can eliminate sex or revenge as answers. If so, the answer is money.

 

[mauidano]

BOMB!!!!!!!

 

[Greg29fan]

GORDON

 

[Apisith]

Wow

 

[BornToRun]

FUCKING A'!!!!

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

FUCKING DESTROYED.  

 

[Madmartigan]

Yeah!

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

Woooooohoooooooo

 

[nvalvo]

I called that to my empty apartment. 

 

[Al Zarilla]

All will be fine, if...

 

[HriniakPosterChild]

Speed kills.

 

[rajendra82]

F**k you shitbirds

 

[Seabass]

BOMB

 

[LynnRice75]

I like it. (Would have liked it more with the bases loaded... but I will take it.)

 

[Stanley Steamer]

Yeah! I want all the Royals extra-inning lefties.

 

[Sprowl]

Alex does it again! That's why Miller hit him.
 
ed: and it's why O'Day is a ROOGY, not a RLR.
 

Wait... was that 94 MPH pitch really a "breaking ball?"
 
Not a naaaaasty Good-Daniel-Bard style two seamer?
 
Damn. 

 
Yep, it's a slider/cutter, not a sinker. Davis' stuff is wicked pissah.

 

[rembrat]

Never in question.
