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

    Astros get a 2 out, 3R walk-off HR from Yordon Alvarez bottom 9 to win it. 8 - 7 in a game the M's led 7 - 3

    Down 7 - 1 in the 5th and 7 - 3 after 8, Braves scored thrice in the 9th: 1B, 1B, K, 3R HR (Olson), but then made the final two outs witjout getting another runner on to fall short. Zach Eflin was the closer-du-jour for the Phightin's

    My only problem with pulling for the Mariners is that I'll find myself regretting it if the Yanx advance. I have fmuch more faith in Houston thumping the yanx than in either Cleveland or Seattle

    The Phillies move on, ouch One more win and this wouldn't have happened and the Mets would be playing PHI who they dominated. Which is why 17 - 13 during the "easy" part of the schedule (not to mention losing 6 of our last 7 to the Braves) was such a killer.

    So was there a reason given why MLB opted to Not re-seed after each round? You'd think that the Dodgers had 'earned' the right to face the lowest ranked surviving team (in this case the Phillies) after Round #1 but that's apparently not the case as SDP will head to the top-ranked Dodgers while the Braves, with 9 fewer regular season wins, get the (slightly) worse Phillies.

    So other than getting thoroughly out-played in games 1 & 3 [13 - 1], it was a pretty good series.
  8. Frayed Knot
    3 - 6

    From the 1st of July thru the end of the season, the Padres were two games over .500

    Offensive highlight of the inning = foul pop out

    Well I'd like to thank them for taking Musgroves out. Probably won't matter, but it's something.

    Say good night Gracie.

    Timmy Trumpet seems out of place here.

    https://twitter.com/TheCUTCH22/status/1579274865856507904 Do we know which brand? Does Frank's work better than Texas Pete's or Chulula?

    Hi, I'm Pete Davidson and I'm a really odd-looking dude.
  18. Frayed Knot
    The parade of relievers isn't going to make a difference if'n they don't hit.

    Not a whole lot of ballplayers more competitive than Pete Rose and there's a story about him in game six 1975, aka: what would become known as the Carlton Fisk game. That game was already a wild back and forth arrair long before Fisk entered into the body English olympics. So a Boston player, forget which one, gets on 1st at some point in the late innings and is greeted by Rose asking him, "Is this a great game or what?". iow, depending on how one wants to micro-define 'fun', I don't think it and competitiveness are mutually exclusive concepts.

    It's not like he hasn't had a penchant for HRs before. We here would gleefully revel In it when he was in opposing colors.
  21. Frayed Knot
    Not exactly the storybook ending that Yadi, Wainwright, and Sir Albert were hoping for, eh?
  22. Frayed Knot
    Home teams 3 - 5 so far in the WC round including two two-game ousters [stL & TOR]

    Hey, if you want to make the case for larger and larger playoff pools then have at it. My point is that I believe expanding the pool leads fans of upper tier playoff teams to Expect that early round games are supposed to be sure wins which in turn tends to lead to the type of anger with which you started this thread when a playoff ouster, or even a one game stumble, occurs. Can't tell you how often I've heard hoops and/or hockey fans in particular say, with a significant amount of dread in their voice, that their team's second round playoff matchup "isn't going to be easy". Yeah, it's not supposed to be.

    Gotta plate the two runs still out there. ... got the first half anyway
  25. Frayed Knot
    And I wanted him to take 2-0 !!! Finally we didn't hit an at'em ball in a GiDP situation.
