Loveable Losers v. Mary Harts - NLCS

[strek1]

Remember when Joc Pederson was Gary Sanchez

I remember when Gary Sanchez wasn't Gary Sanchez. To think just a few short months ago hardly anybody knew who he was.

In a year or two, he could be Joc Pederson

 

[mauidano]

Pretty close on the turtle!

 

[Marciano490]

He's safe.

 

[staz]

Safe

 

[strek1]

IDK. That was close but there may not be enough to overturn.

 

[Marciano490]

At least Heyward's earning his contract with his defense when it counts.

 

[troparra]

He's safe, but that should be an out. You can't reward a guy who runs that freaking slowly.

 

[S. H. Frog]

I think he's in. I love seeing happy Dave Roberts.

 

[strek1]

In a year or two, he could be Joc Pederson

LOL For sure!

 

[mauidano]

His hand was over the plate maybe not on the plate.

 

[S. H. Frog]

Good lord. That throw, and he still had him by two steps. Nice slide.

 

[Oppo]

Wow. That's wrong, totally safe.

 

[mauidano]

Rigged. The whole thing is rigged.

 

[strek1]

That doesn't shock me. It was hard to be sure.

 

[S. H. Frog]

Bummer.

 

[staz]

Huh. Did the Cubs just catch a break in the postseason?

 

[Oppo]

Why did contreras dive to agon instead of just protecting the plate?

 

[Bigpupp]

Huh?

 

[genoasalami]

I think that's the right call ..."looks" like he just beat the tag....but "looks" isn't the same as he "definitely" got in there...

 

[JohntheBaptist]

He was safe!

Also am I the last to notice Lackey's new set of veneers? He's in some kinda uncanny valley there.

 

[troparra]

I'm confused. What's the point of having HD ultra slow motion replay and reviewing it in a painfully slow process if you're just going to ignore what's on the video?

 

[LynnRice75]

I agree that his hand may have been above the plate rather than on it. In the long run, just not enough evidence to overturn.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Angel Hernandez again. Get it right the first time and you don't have to go through the "not enough to overturn" bullshit,

 

[S. H. Frog]

Gonzalez, 2011: God wanted us in the tank down the stretch.
Me: BOOO
Gonzalez, 2016: I won't stay in a Trump hotel.
Me: YAY
Gonzalez, just now: (Hassles umpires on the headset to New York.)
Me: C'mon Adrian, I just got back on board.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Same thing happened in Game 1, although he was actually out that time

You must have some seriously great video equipment and a huge monitor to be so sure he was safe.
Even with multiple angles I couldn't be sure.

 

[Lowrielicious]

I'm no Angel fan, but if it's debatable in HD slomo replay then what is the "right" call the first time?

 

[54thMA]

Is Finland an option?

They kicked the Russians asses in 1940, but sadly, no...........but I like your style.

 

[Al Zarilla]

They could fix this with technology. Be constantly monitoring the capacitance (C) of home plate. A human touching it would make C go up. Not a flux capacitor but a capacitance meter.

 

[Lowrielicious]

nice pitching. Don't give in to the guy who can really hurt you (Bryant) and own the guy you have the advantage over.

Hey, let's use words we all understand.

 

[johnmd20]

Worst throw in the history of baseball?

 

[DanoooME]

Worst throw in the history of baseball?

Definitely worse than Heyward's

 

[Al Zarilla]

Worst throw in the history of baseball?

Carl Crawford could have done that.

 

[glasspusher]

I thought Crawford wasn't playing for the Dodgers anymore.

 

[Ale Xander]

Jeterian hits, Jacobian throw

 

[Al Zarilla]

I thought Crawford wasn't playing for the Dodgers anymore.

Great minds...

No, but AGon's hand was on the plate before he was tagged. The review was deemed inconclusive because it's possible that AGon's hand was hovering 0.5mm above the plate, which is a ridiculous level of detail that no video will show. So what's the point of the replay if you're going to use standards like that?

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Good lord, that throw. Anything remotely decent gets him.

 

[johnmd20]

Cubs making magic right now.

 

[Ale Xander]

Lackey on deck, you idiot.

 

[capecodjr41]

Fuck this.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Bunt, couple of bloops and a blast.

 

[glasspusher]

Holy cow. With Lackey on deck?

 

[glasspusher]

would you rather have your offense jump started or kick started?

 

[glasspusher]

We can neither confirm nor deny that Big Papi had a huddle with the Cubs' players in the dugout.

 

[Al Zarilla]

That's a new one to me: Lackey pissed at his catcher.
