IGT 10/1 The End Noah v. Pivetta

[ashie62]

And in the end the relievers you use might light the fuse that causes you to depart, my friend.

Don't know how Noah will be used today.

LGM!!

On the mound would be my guess, but we'll just have to wait and see.


Actually no we won't, and I was right!!


AOKI - RF
EVANS - 3B
NIMMO - CF
SMITH - 1B
NIDO - C
ROSARIO - SS
REYNOLDS - LF
CECCHINI - 2B
SYNDERGAARD - P

Youth will be served!



The Phillies have pretty much the same lineup as the last two days but I can't summon enough interest to actually type it out.

Hernandez 2B
Herrera CF
Altherr LF
Hoskins 1B
Williams RF
Franco 3B
Knapp C
Crawford SS
Pivetta P

What Keith Meant to Say: "Noah looks great. He wasn't sitting around playing Tiddly Winks all that time."

Love that 93-MPH change.

[Edgy MD]

Andrew Knapp is a great name for a backup catcher.

[Edgy MD]

That Senderguard guy looked good. They should consider bringing him back next season.

[Edgy MD]

I'm guessing Niese for the winningest pitcher during the Terry Tenure.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Niese is the winningest pitcher of the decade, so far.

That Keith.

I do hope we've seen the last of Chris Flexen.

[Edgy MD]

As Philly breaks through with a three-run dong in the bottom of the third.

I don't think Flexie's a lost cause. He came up from AA in an emergency. A few seasons from now, he might be quite goodish.

[Edgy MD]

Smith is putting on a minor league fielding clinic.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Trade Duda already, they said.

Dominic Smith is the bee's tits, they said.

[Edgy MD]

I'm telling you, it's the pot.

[Guest d'Kong76]

I don't think I've ever seen a blundered play at first quite like that one.
(kinda feel bad for him, probably would like to crawl under the bag)

[Frayed Knot]

Well, I suppose this is one way to preserve that all important 6th draft slot.

[MFS62]

That guy Franco is a pain in the ERA. He's this generation's Mike Schmitt (a Phillie third basemen who hits lots of homers off Mets pitching).

Eh. He's having a good series, nothing more.

That's fair. We can give him another shot in 2019.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Time for one last stretch...

Yanquis/Blue Jays game "wins" the race in the synchronized game time contest.
The 2-1 Toronto win is the first game today to reach a conclusion.

5 homers in 16 games this year.
Just seems like more.

A bad way to end a bad year. Plegh.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Bad, fitting... what's the difference.

And with that, Smith takes an elbow/forearm to the head.

[Guest 41Forever]

Ugly.

The older I get the faster the off season goes.
