[Ed Hillel]

3-2...

 

[canderson]

Imagine Farrell not pitching 2013 Koji here.

 

[rembrat]

Britton has to have arm cancer. This is ridiculous.

 

[Bergs]

If Farrell was doing this I might actually die.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Meatball

 

[The Filthy One]

What is that asshole behind home plate doing?

 

[troparra]

I like the umpire's big, coarse "ha!"

 

[Ferm Sheller]

What is that asshole behind home plate doing?

Calling balls and strikes

 

[The_Powa_of_Seiji_Ozawa]

Melvins worldwide sigh in disappointment. It's hard to be a Melvin. He's their great hope.

I always thought the geeky guy in Wargames was named Melvin. But I saw it with captioning and it's Malvin. Weird.

 

[Al Zarilla]

This is like Ziegler against Smoak

 

[glasspusher]

I like the umpire's big, coarse "ha!"

Canadian strike call?

 

[Bergs]

What is that asshole behind home plate doing?

Calling a lot of pitches incorrectly.

 

[bosockboy]

Came here specifically to see if I was crazy about Britton. Glad I'm not.

 

[Ed Hillel]

What is that asshole behind home plate doing?

Someone gif his reaction on that K.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

I don't think so. But Bob had a decent game here in a losing effort

Forgot until I saw that that he was a Red Sox once.

 

[The Filthy One]

Calling balls and strikes

Nicely done.

 

[The_Powa_of_Seiji_Ozawa]

Canadian strike call?

Eh?

 

[Hendu for Kutch]

Buck be like

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Buck must love dancing between the raindrops.

 

[nvalvo]

Jones covered some ground!

 

[mauidano]

Britton has to be next up.

 

[Ed Hillel]

With Osuna hurt, I definitely want Toronto to win now.

 

[Ale Xander]

Texas must be loving this.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

Nice catch Mr. Jones

 

[rembrat]

Can we get some O's fans reaction to no Britton here?

@Joe Shlabotnick please respond

 

[troparra]

Jones outran 3 water cans on that one.

 

[glasspusher]

Bullpens are a hell of a drug.

 

[DanoooME]

Hell, have this thing go 20 innings now.

 

[Rough Carrigan]

Buck must love dancing between the raindrops.

Is this gonna segue into the pina colada song or something?

 

[Bergs]

Nice signage, you fucks.

 

[Rough Carrigan]

Bullpens are a hell of a drug.

Tony LaRussa was like Chuck Negron.

 

[TFisNEXT]

Ugly matchup here.

 

[nvalvo]

UBALDO!?!?!?

 

[Ale Xander]

He's seriously going to put in Ubaldo before Britton?

 

[loshjott]

Has a player named Melvin ever had a playoff walk off hit? I got a feeling he might win this.

Close:

Oct. 16, 1999: NLCS Game Four: Mora doesn’t start but still plays a key role in the first Mets victory of the series. With the team trailing 2-1 in the bottom of the eight, Mora appears as a pinch hitter with a runner on first and two outs. After the runner steals, Mora draws a walk. A little later, Mora is the back end of a crucial double steal. It’s crucial because it allows a John Olerud single to drive in both runners. When Mora crosses the plate, the Mets have a 3-2 lead, and that’s the final score.

Oct. 17, 1999: NLCS Game Five: It’s one of the most famous games ever, ending on Robin Ventura’s walk-off grand slam single for a wild Mets 4-3 win in 15 innings. Mora plays the full game, going 1-for-6. Fun fact: Mora is the guy on deck when Ventura hits the walk-off blast.

 

[BornToRun]

JIMENEZ AND DUENSING!? Is he fucking senile!?

 

[Bergs]

2 O's warming...no Britton.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

Britton still not warming. He must be hurt

 

[Rough Carrigan]

Now Buck is totally trolling us.
He's got Ubald Jimenez and Brian Duensing warming up in the pen?!

 

[rembrat]

Britton blew out his elbow warming up. It's the only explanation.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Crap AB there. Two bad swings and missed a hanger.

 

[canderson]

Did Omar kill Zach?

 

[rembrat]

OR Buck ain't the genius people think he is and he's waiting for the LEAD to get Britton in there.

 

[TFisNEXT]

Was there any news of Britton getting hurt before this series?

 

[DanoooME]

Now Buck is totally trolling us.
He's got Ubald Jimenez and Brian Duensing warming up in the pen?!

Maybe he's going to mix and match OOGies?

Sorry, I couldn't say that with a straight face.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

and Kim was removed for that mess

 

[TampaSoxFan]

Britton has to have arm cancer. This is ridiculous.

 

[Bergs]

This game is nuts.

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Did Omar kill Zach?

Part of the game, yo.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Donaldson gonna win it with a two out solo poke?
