[crossout:2ycu5f4n]Boy am I glad this isn't the Mets playing.[/crossout:2ycu5f4n] I don't think I could take it. Oh no, this is bullshit. That was not a bad slide. OE: I might not be able to take it but I guess I'd prefer that the Mets were still playing. I'll change that to I'm glad I'm not a Cubs fan.

Man, I thought they'd avoid using Chapman unless they had to. Everyone knows the "how much he has pitched" angle and if the Cubs don't come back Maddon will never hear the end of it. Even if they do comeback.....

Un believe able

If this backfires on Maddon they will be talking about it for the next 108 years. 6-4 Cubs

Zvon wrote: Oh maaaan, Lester still had plenty of time to get two. I think he's a bit of a headcase with the throwing to bases business. It's for that reason I don't think Ross's departure effects him in the least.

He won a ring with the Sox three years ago. I guess cause this is his last game before retirement. I think there's a host of people higher on that list to win it for. HOLY SCHMOLY, ROSS REDEEMS HIMSELF!

Frayed Knot wrote: 1-1 after 3, but the game's much closer than the score indicates. seriously, I just used a racist word when I really meant "Guardians" have hit into some hard outs. And I get all this 'the game is different now' and 'it's a new generation' stuff, and when it comes to overt celebrating and the like I'm fine with all that. But it's Game 7 of the WS, HOW THE FUCK is Fowler not running on his leadoff HR which got over the wall by like 2 feet? If that's off the wall instead of over it he's lucky to get hisself a double instead of what could quite possibly be a sure triple (or more?). Less seriously but still odd is seeing Schwarber immediately making sure that he didn't hurt Lindor on his slide, as if that's his first thought at being thrown out on an attempted double. Or I'm just an old man ranting. oe: and how did the 2nd base ump mess up that earlier force play when Baez tried to bare-hand the ball?? Than I'll rant with you. Running hard to first is so basic. And the Baez barehand-was that West?- the ump was right there and it was so clear that he never had a handle.

That should cancel out his errors. BAEZBOOM! 4-1 Cubs

Maddon should have pulled Chapman after the RizzoBomb. He won't get thru the 9th. They might not need him tomorrow with all hands on deck. Indians have a man on 1st, no outs. 9-2 Cubs.

Frayed Knot wrote: Madden going to Chapman here is pretty shocking IMO. Ditto. Ridin' him like Yogi used to ride Tug. Huge reversal. And I really thought he was safe, no question, in real time. I think Chapman hurt his leg there. Trying to hide it walking off the field but he was limping right after the play. This is getting dramatic.

6 RBI for Russell! [fimg=500:m09p7pr0]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CwOBR4zWEAADluL.jpg[/fimg:m09p7pr0]

I cannot believe that ball dropped in, and a WS collision at the plate! Never thought I'd see one of those again.
