Thwomp! Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 Pitching duel in LA as expected after 2. Cuddyer scares me in LF and the Mets are swinging at way too much stuff in the dirt. Quote
WildCard Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 Pitching duel in LA as expected after 2. Cuddyer scares me in LF and the Mets are swinging at way too much stuff in the dirt.This ump is pretty terrible though Quote
Thwomp! Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 Ump is horrible for sure. How is he behind home plate for game 1? Kershaw is bouncing every other pitch and the Mets are swinging at 75% of them :wallbash: But he is a hall-of-fame pitcher, so I guess I can't fault them too much. Just a little more patience please? Cuddyer is going to lose this game or another in this series if they don't get him the out of LF. Quote
Thwomp! Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 Pitching duel as advertised continues. Both starting pitchers have double digit strikeouts after 5 innings. Quote
Taro T Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 It works both ways. From my (Rangers) perspective the ball-strike calls have been terrible. I think part of it has to do with the display they're using for the telecast. So, like, Roughned Odor is a game changer, ain't he? :wub: It was an educated guess. The Florida Marlins were announced in 1991; there was probably talk about it long before that. As someone who lives here, let me just say that at least it's not as bad as Florida. Yep. 3 city race for the 2 expansion slots: Buffalo, Denver, & Miami. (4 city if you throw DC in, but there was no way DC was getting a team in that expansion. Quote

Awesome. Arrieta seems like good dude. Was that really your friend? Quote
ubkev Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 Arrieta seems like good dude. Was that really your friend? Yeah. He left work and drove to Pittsburgh for the game. Quote
Thwomp! Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 Yeah. He left work and drove to Pittsburgh for the game. He's "Twitter" famous! Quote
ubkev Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 He's "Twitter" famous! The Matt Ellis of famous. Quote
Thwomp! Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) The Matt Ellis of famous. :w00t: Perfect! You mean "Hatty Matty"? Edit (separate subject): First time in MLB playoff history that both starting pitchers have 11+ strikeouts. Edited October 10, 2015 by EastsideOasis Quote

Sabres Fan in NS Posted October 10, 2015 Report Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) The Jays have them right where they want them now. GO JAYS GO and don't bother coming back if you loose either game in Texas. Edited October 10, 2015 by Sabres Fan In NS Quote
Thwomp! Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 2 early homers for the Mets off Grienke. Quote
ubkev Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 2 early homers for the Mets off Grienke. Grienke is like origami. He folds under pressure. Quote
Thwomp! Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 Grienke is like origami. He folds under pressure. He has settled down nicely unfortunately. Another good pitching duel. Quote
LGR4GM Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 I hate all teams that wear orange. Quote
ubkev Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 He has settled down nicely unfortunately. Another good pitching duel. Big inning for Thor coming up. He's generally, pretty shaky in the 6th. Quote
Thwomp! Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) Thor pitching the 7th now. Surprising. Good thing Wright was the hero last night. 0-3 with a strikeout and 2 GIDP tonight. Colon over Reed? Wtf Terry? Don't have a good feeling about this. Can Chase Utley retire soon? There are few players in MLB I like less. He's not a goddamn LB and slid way late. Bordering on dirty if not over the line. :censored: Utley did the same thing to Tejada in 2010. Slid after the bag into his legs. And man these umps suck. Utley never touched the bag. Let's have another review because 4 hours of baseball is just not enough :censored: Edited October 11, 2015 by EastsideOasis Quote
WildCard Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 Come on East, Chase just made an old school beautiful baseball play and the challenge system screwed the Mets. Challenging the neighborhood rule is bull Quote
Thwomp! Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 Can someone explain to me how Utley gets called safe when he never touched the base and ran to the goddamn dugout without still touching it? He also vaulted OVER the bag into Tejada. It was dirty. . And the Mets of course get screwed in the end. All sports replays suck. They still don't get them right. Come on East, Chase just made an old school beautiful baseball play and the challenge system screwed the Mets. Challenging the neighborhood rule is bull ###### Please be sarcasm :unsure: Quote
WildCard Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 The Mets are going to lose this game an an absolute bull challenge call. I'm really hating the NFL for bringing this plague into other sports Quote
Thwomp! Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 And Justin Turner looks like and is the same size as a garden gnome :P I feel a tiny, tiny bit better now having said that. Quote
WildCard Posted October 11, 2015 Report Posted October 11, 2015 It was a late slide, but every player makes that slide all year and it's never called. It's in unwritten rule: we all know that he isn't going for the bag. At the same time the neighborhood rule is one of the longest standing unwritten rules in spots, and to call a challenge on that is absolute garbage. If you can challenge that, then Collins should be able to challenge that Utley was out because he never touched the base Quote
