  1. =MFS62 post_id=206300 time=1759281009 user_id=60] Man, I wanted Bellinger on the Mets. sigh
  2. FO to RF ... two outs. Trent Grisham vs Chapman for the marbles. STRUCK HIM OUT!!!!
  3. Stanton Ks Double play could end it. So could a double. Jazz Chisholm, non-starter due to a lefty starter, comes in to face the lefty reliever.
  4. Top of the Yanx order: Goldschmidt - Judge - Bellinger, up in the 9th for NYY Single for Goldschmidt - Judge as tying run. Single by Judge on the first pitch. 1st & 2nd, no one out. Chapman stays in for the lefty-swinging Bellinger. Anotehr first-pitch single by Bellinger. Bags loaded, no one out. Tying run on 2nd. Winning run on 1st. And still no pitching change. Stanton up
  5. YUGE two-out/two-strike double by Trevor Story makes it 3-1 in the 9th (and this game is already heading towards the three-hour mark (about 2:50 right now) despite the new rules and a low score ... only the Yanx/Sawx universe could pull this off)
  6. Chapman allows runner (Volpe) to advance to 2nd on the 3rd pickoff attempt ... none of which were even close to getting him. Hell, he threw as often to 1st as he did to home. FO to RF (despite near collision) and we're going to the 9th.
  7. Sox bring Crochet -- 100 pitches thru 7 and with 16 batters retired in a row -- back out for the 8th. So far: GO - Single - K ... and now Cora pulls him after 117 pitches in favor of former-MFY Aroldis Chapman (lefty for lefty) with four outs to go and the tying run on 1st
  8. Sox didn't add on in top 7, but then the Yanx, with Crochet still dealing, went 1-2-3 on six pitches in the bottom half. 2-1, heading to the 8th
  9. Boone leaves Fried in long enough to get the first (lefty) batter of the 7th. Then he went to his pen (102 pitches). Then things got messy: Walk - hustle Double - 2-RBI PH Single 2-1 BoSox, one out, runner on 1st. Out goes Luke Weaver, in comes ... I dunno, somebody (Fernando Cruz ... come on down!).
  10. If the damaged ligament requires a replacement will that make it Tom Thumb surgery?
  11. I think I had Fried Crochet at a French restaurant a couple of months back.
  12. One oddity in this game that I've never seen in a baseball box score before: the Jets fumbled in each of the first three innings.
  13. The Detroit Skubals* [7-2/3, 1 R, 3 H, 3 BB, 14 K] scored one in the 1st and one in the 7th to beat the Guardians 2-1 earlier today. Just nine total hits in the game, eight of them singles. Cleveland was 'DFL' (as some like to put it) in the AL in runs scored this year -- and actually scored fewer than they gave up (-6) -- so they, like that other playoff team from Ohio, will need to win games with scores like this in order to advance in the post-season. * whenever I type his name my auto-correct changes it to 'Skulls'
  14. Seiya Suzuki and Carson Kelly hit back-to-back HRs leading off bottom 5th to give the Cubs a 2-1 lead. Nick Pivetta starter and still throwing for SD. Matthew Boyd (4.1 IP) gave way to Daniel Palencia (0.2) for Chicago.
  15. Jonah Tong - Minor League Pitcher of the Year Nolan McLean - Minor League Breakout Player of the Year
  16. And once you know that it's predictably easy to figure out which game goes where. DET @ CLE: 1:08 - ESPN SDP @ CHC: 3:08 - ABC BOS @ NYY: 6:08 - ESPN CIN @ LAD: 9:08 - ESPN (And the schedule would have been the exact same if it was NYM @ LAD) They could never do this schedule prior to the speed-up rules era because when 9:08 came around the Yanx/Sawx game would have been in the top of the 6th. I mean they still would have done it this way but the CIN/LAD game would get bumped to ESPN2 and stayed there until it was close to half over thereby ****ing up anyone who didn't think ahead when setting their DVRs.
  17. Stearns, speaking to reporters today at CitiField: (posted 3:45 by NY Post/Justin Tisch): “I believe Carlos has all the same traits and assets that I believed in when I hired him two years ago,” Stearns said. “I still believe he’s a very good manager, and I think he’s gonna demonstrate that.” “I’m the architect of the team. I’m responsible for it,”
  18. Sports betting commercials running on any and all sports programming (like that's ever going to happen). Those ads aren't openly dishonest but they creep right up to the line while implying it's merely a matter of how often you cash in, never if.
  19. Padres (5) @ Cubs (4): Tues 3:08; Wed 3:08; Thursday TBD Reds (6) @ Dodgers (3): Tues 9:08; Wed 9:08; Thursday TBD ___________________________________________________ Red Sox (5) @ Yanquis (4): Tue TBD; Wed TBD; Thu TBD Tigers (6) @ Guardians (3): Tue TBD; Wed TBD; Thu TBD All games one of the 56 ESPN platforms (check your bookie for time and channel in your area) except for games #1 & #2 in Chicago which will ride on free TV via the ABC television network.
  20. Going to the 9th in Milwaukee
  21. 4-2 Brews and still batting. But this is starting to matter less and less.
  22. Brews have runner on 3rd, one out ... and now they have no one on base because the ball just landed in the LF seats Brews 3 - Reds 2 And now the Reds pull their starter.
  23. One run in, two outs, runner on 3rd for MIL, Durbin at the dish ... and he flies to RF Reds 2 - Brewers 1, end of 3 5 LOBsters for Milwaukee
  24. Still 1-0 after two as the Brewers have now left two runners on in each inning.
  25. Brewers get out of the 2nd without any more damage, so 1-0 Reds heading to bottom 2 The rEds briefly had 1st & 3rd/1-out but the call at 3rd was reversed for out #2 and the 3rd out happened on the next batter.
