IALDST - Guardians v Yankees

[kcmets]

Forgoing a poll, pretty sure it would be a landslide vote...

[The Hot Corner]

Probably not much need for a poll. Still I want to voice my support for the young, underdog Guardians.

[whippoorwill]

Me too!

[Frayed Knot]

Yanx up 4 - 1, still batting in the 6th

[Frayed Knot]

4 - 1 is your final.

Off day tomorrow for the AL series.

[The Hot Corner]

I saw that Josh Donaldson got thrown out at first base for doing a homerun trot on a ball off the top of the right field wall. While he was doing his trot and high fiving the first base coach the Guardians right fielder player the carom and threw to second base before Donaldson was half way there. The shocked Donaldson then tried to retreat to first base, but was thrown out pretty handily. The conventional 9-6-3 force out.



Unfortunately, the Yankees scored 3 runs despite Donaldson's bone headed play.

[whippoorwill]

After a flabbergasting day off yesterday on a beautiful day, I hope they're not rained out tonight

[ashie62]

Decent weather til 5 or so. They could play in light rain. Tough call

[Frayed Knot]

Already postponed.

Early-afternoon matinee today...



Shane Bieber

A couple of my homies are attending. I hope it snows locusts.

[whippoorwill]

Cortes just made a fabulous play, damn him

[whippoorwill]

Cleveland ties the game 2-2!

[MFS62]

Giminez and Rosario have driven in the runs for Cleveland.

Later

[whippoorwill]

Aaron judge has struck out 3 times. I just saw some kid yelling something rude at him.

Fans suck.

[whippoorwill]

Christmas Old Navy ad.

[whippoorwill]

Unless Ron Darling has a sound-alike, he's calling this game.

[whippoorwill]

Trevino-Treviño battery

[ashie62]

This could be a 4+ hour game

[whippoorwill]

Ah! Good to know!

[Frayed Knot]

Guardians have started the 10th: soft bloop (plus tack-on error) followed by another soft bloop to take a 3 - 2 lead. Still no outs.



oe: and now a ringing Dubble plates run #4

[Frayed Knot]

4 - 2 heading to bottom 10 (and, remember, no clown car rules!) although Cleveland had three shots w/RiSP but failed to plate a 5th run.



Tim Locastro, who earlier pinch ran for Giancarlo, leads it off.

[Frayed Knot]

Locastro - FO

Donaldson - BB



So the tying run is at the plate in the form of rookie Osvaldo Cabrera ... and he K's



Two down with Kiner-Falaffel batting... and a GO ends the game!!!!

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Game over

[MFS62]

THEEEEEEE Yankees LOOOOSE!



Celebration ensues.

Old friend Amed Rosario is up as the winning run in the bottom of the 9th, Yankees up 5-3.



And he drives in a run! 5-4, 1st and 2nd, 1 out. I'm watching on aTV monitor outside the ballpark.

[Chad ochoseis]

And Oscar Gonzalez does it again! Guardians win 6-5.
