NL Wild Card Thread - Rockies @ Cubs

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Nice check swing

 

[Buzzkill Pauley]

Clearly not a swing....hm?

 

[SoxFanInCali]

How do you take Blackmon out in a tie game?

 

[The Filthy One]

Now I really hope the Rockies put one in the bleachers.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Stupid damn inning

 

[curly2]

A-Rod said it was "one too many sliders" to Baez.

Not it wasn't. It was a BAD slider. A good one strikes him out.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

How do you take Blackmon out in a tie game?

Black must think this isn't going extras

 

[DJnVa]

A Dave Roberts moment my ass. The Rockies aren't the MFY and that isn't the Fruit Bat on the mound.

We all know that.

 

[ponch73]

Hindsight is 20/20, but Rockies probably should have brought Davis in after Rizzo's hard hit single.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Black must think this isn't going extras

Always trying to keep a Blackmon down.

 

[bosockboy]

Davis not pitching to Baez is just terrible.

 

[BornToRun]

Well that was filthy.

 

[The Filthy One]

You don’t see many pitchers as swole as Strop.

 

[Ale Xander]

Always trying to keep a Blackmon down.

Black on Blackmon crime

 

[DeadlySplitter]

horrific game from Arenado

 

[mostman]

This format is so silly. The Cubs host the tiebreaker for best NL record. They lose. They have to play in a WC game. If they lose again, the team tied for the best record goes home. If they win, they head back to Mil, because now Mil is hosting the NLDS and has home-field throughout.

That said. This game is great.

 

[Buzzkill Pauley]

Where does Theo find guys like Strop, anyway?

 

[shawnrbu]

Folk hero status for Gore.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Davis not pitching to Baez is just terrible.

As was throwing Baez anything resembling a strike on 0-2. That was so stupid

 

[Ale Xander]

Brewers are rooting for a 20 inning game

 

[Al Zarilla]

22 hopper through the infield and espn sound makes it sound like an Ortiz home run.

Seconded.

Wasn’t he in the Orioles organization?

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Folk hero status for Gore.

His statue will be next to Jerome Walton's

 

[LogansDad]

That almost ended up in the right field corner...

 

[Murderer's Crow]

Man, when it’s players on your own team I guess it doesn’t bother you so much but Strop stomping around the mound is really annoying. I’m all about emotion but wait for the big strikeout maybe?

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Wasn’t he in the Orioles organization?

Arrieta and Strop for Scott Feldman

 

[Al Zarilla]

Cubs just win the World Series?

 

[shawnrbu]

Every team has a bullpen.

 

[ponch73]

Strop is all class

 

[loshjott]

Asked and answered.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Oh man, that was a hanger up over the middle.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Jesus, that's about the fattest pitch that I've ever seen result in strike 3 looking.

 

[Buzzkill Pauley]

Wasn’t he in the Orioles organization?

Traded, with Arrieta, for Feldman. Oh, I mean Feldman and Clevenger.

 

[bosockboy]

As was throwing Baez anything resembling a strike on 0-2. That was so stupid

Davis hadn’t pitched since Friday, off day tomorrow. 4 outs from advancing.

Mind boggling.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

All set up for Schwarber

 

[budcrew08]

Traded, with Arrieta, for Feldman. Oh, I mean Feldman and Clevenger.

Gotcha.

The only NL team that got a bye was the division winner with the worst record.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

God, I fucking hate the Cubs.

 

[BornToRun]

Cole Hamels? Interesting.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Wow, sick pitch.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

That's a nasty, gutsy 3-2 pitch.

 

[mostman]

The only NL team that got a bye was the division winner with the worst record.

That’s something. Wow.

 

[Murderer's Crow]

I’ll bang this drum over and over again but instead of a 1 game playoff it should be a quick 3 game series Away- off-day - Home - Home with game 1 of the DS starting after a single off-day.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Cole Hamels? Interesting.

It’s win or stay home time.

 

[soxhop411]

He comes the walk off bomb

 

[LogansDad]

Not even an appeal on that one?

 

[shawnrbu]

Kyle Schwarber: Postseason Legend

 

[budcrew08]

I think that’s a great way to do it. More money for the owners and the league.

 

[oumbi]

Davis, 20 pitches and 9 strikes.
