ALDS Game Thread

Wow, what a throw there. Rocket. Almost got him.

 

[rembrat]

Will this be overturned?

 

[ifmanis5]

Ruled safe. I thought he was off the bag but very close.

 

[BestGameEvah]

Odor, Odor!

 

[Dollar]

He was probably off the bag, but there's no way you can overturn that call with the video angles we saw.

 

[soxhop411]

woof

 

[jon abbey]

Odor owning this series, I hope people call Costas "smelly" from now on.

 

[johnmd20]

Cool slide.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Odor owning this series, I hope people call Costas "smelly" from now on.

Stinky, but, yeah.

 

[Al Zarilla]

The way Odor throws himself around with reckless abandon, to be young again.

 

[BestGameEvah]

And Pillar is no slouch in CF. 10 + assists.   Odor has just made incredible slides.

 

[mikeford]

Why do we even have replay if we're not going to get the calls right?

 

[ifmanis5]

Wow, wheels to first.

 

[soxhop411]

wow

 

[johnmd20]

That is a fast man.

 

[foulkehampshire]

I can't believe Toronto is close to blowing 2 games at home. 
 
Playoff baseball is funny.

 

[BestGameEvah]

Why do we even have replay if we're not going to get the calls right?

Could you see if his cleat, which protrudes from the sole of his shoe,  was in contact with the bag from that view?

 

[Al Zarilla]

Why do we even have replay if we're not going to get the calls right?

I think they really, really err on the side of if the evidence isn't obvious, you don't overturn.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Costas says Toronto can't come back (in all probability).

 

[InsideTheParker]

I love the way they went to commercial with that old-timey music and shots from the game set into an old tv. It matches the commentary by Kaat and Costas.

 

[BornToRun]

Holy shit that's terrible.

 

[Section15Box113]

That pitch was well inside.

 

[brandonchristensen]

not swinging won't win you any favors...

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

That was not a strike

 

[Al Zarilla]

This guy pitches like Johnny Sain, and a bunch of other old time pitchers (goes with what ITP just posted).

 

[Jnai]

I love the old timey windup so much.

 

[Al Zarilla]

I love the old timey windup so much.

Who was the guy the Sox had a few (short) years ago with the windup?

 

[foulkehampshire]

Paul Byrd? 

 

[Al Zarilla]

 
Paul Byrd? 

That's him. 

 

[Section15Box113]

Not done yet.

 

[johnmd20]

No effort to get out of the way. But I'll take the base runner. Actually turned into the ball there.

 

[Section15Box113]

Wow, subtly extended the elbow. Smart play.

(Even if it's cheating....lol)

 

[ifmanis5]

Wow, ugly check swinging at a ball in the dirt.

 

[mwonow]

Frack.

 

[Section15Box113]

Well, Toronto has dug themselves a bit of a hole...

 

[Al Zarilla]

LOL Fielder!

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Playoff Kevin Millar 》》》》》Playoff Kevin Pillar

 

[InsideTheParker]

Fielder falling over the railing was hilarious. 

 

[Al Zarilla]

Fielder falling over the railing was hilarious. 

Remind you of Sandoval?

 

[CTSOX]

Prince, fat guys can't do that.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Now the question is: How much does Kazmir have left?

 

[mikeford]

Marco Estrada, he of the near 5 xFIP is all that stands between Toronto and oblivion. 
 
 
Bummer.

 

[Al Zarilla]

I want to see Ken Rosenthal interview Altuve sometime. 

 

[The Napkin]

Prince Fielder - professional "athlete"

KC fighting for their lives here...

 

[Al Zarilla]

KC fighting for their lives here...

Good games today, and the two I was most looking forward to haven't started yet. 

 

[mauidano]

Kazmir wants to punch Perez.

 

[mauidano]

BTW, just got my 45 minutes in on the bike in front of the TV done. Guilt erased.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Not so young arms like Hawkins and Perez aren't conducive to shut down innings in the playoffs

 

[AMS25]

Ah, the weak underbelly of the Astros' bullpen......
