Dodgers are running out of chances

They only need one more

They are killing me.

There it is

They did it

244 sats \ 7 replies \ @grayruby 2 Nov

Congrats. They played like champs and delivered in the clutch. Jays had a great series but way too many missed opportunities in game 6 and 7 to win it.

Vlad Guerrero should have been MVP regardless of which team won

Earl Weaver: pitching, defense and 3 run homer

too many sliders

20 sats \ 2 replies \ @Undisciplined 2 Nov

I generally don't like review, but it kind of sucks for the last out in the 9th to come on a bad call.

You're probably not too upset, though

42 sats \ 1 reply \ @grayruby 2 Nov

No because the ump missed three pitches in the bottom of the 8th

40 sats \ 0 replies \ @Undisciplined 2 Nov

A lot of poor calls, but I'd be bummed if it decides the World Series

More baserunning mistakes!

11 sats \ 0 replies \ @kepford 2 Nov

Jays have played better baseball but base running has been a bit questionable

21 sats \ 0 replies \ @Undisciplined 2 Nov

That was pretty embarrassing

92 sats \ 0 replies \ @grayruby 2 Nov

Tough loss but a great season for the Jays. Way too many missed opportunities in game 6 and 7

52 sats \ 5 replies \ @kepford 2 Nov

Dodgers swinging more freely

40 sats \ 2 replies \ @kepford 2 Nov

That was close to being a scoring inning without that stop by Vlad

59 sats \ 1 reply \ @grayruby 2 Nov

Great play on the swinging bunt.

20 sats \ 0 replies \ @kepford 2 Nov

No doubt

62 sats \ 0 replies \ @grayruby 2 Nov

Max likes to be aggressive in the zone.

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @Jer OP 2 Nov

They sure are

51 sats \ 1 reply \ @kepford 2 Nov

Wow... Running? Really? Dude is hurt.

Jays repeat gift to the dodgers.

20 sats \ 0 replies \ @kepford 2 Nov

I'll take it. A free out

40 sats \ 1 reply \ @Jer OP 2 Nov

Back to playing Blue Jays baseball. LFG!

21 sats \ 0 replies \ @grayruby 2 Nov

Let's get some more runs and make this a comfortable lead.

40 sats \ 0 replies \ @Jer OP 2 Nov

There should be a “Varsho” rule. A reverse Ohtani so to speak. If he doesn’t hit a home run in his first at bat we can keep him in the field but someone else gets his ABs.

31 sats \ 0 replies \ @Jer OP 2 Nov

Is Vladdy’s step mom younger than he is?

180 sats \ 4 replies \ @grayruby 2 Nov

Nothing like changing the rules for Ohtani's benefit in game 7 of the world series.

20 sats \ 3 replies \ @Jer OP 2 Nov

Bullshit

41 sats \ 0 replies \ @kepford 2 Nov

Yeah, bullshit indeed. You can say they should change a rule but apparently this is NOT a rule. I get that it maybe should be a rule but it isn't. If that ump is correct. It's up to the ump.

Doesn't matter though. He's out.

32 sats \ 1 reply \ @grayruby 2 Nov

That's why Bo is in the game.

20 sats \ 0 replies \ @Jer OP 2 Nov

“Beau”

50 sats \ 1 reply \ @grayruby 2 Nov

Dodgers chipping away. Feels like the Jays need a couple more runs.

20 sats \ 0 replies \ @WeAreAllSatoshi 2 Nov

I agree

11 sats \ 0 replies \ @jimmysong 13h

Jays lost because their pinch runner didn't know how to take a proper lead off of third base and didn't run through on a force play. One step more on a lead, or run straight through and he's probably safe and the game is over.

21 sats \ 2 replies \ @grayruby 2 Nov

Let's go Blue Jays.

Enjoy the game @Jer. Might be awhile before we get another one of these.

40 sats \ 1 reply \ @Jer OP 2 Nov

We can talk about dynasty tomorrow. Enjoy the game. Hoping you make some memories with the family!

21 sats \ 0 replies \ @grayruby 2 Nov

Indeed.

Hat tip to Max. Hall of famer. Great job.

Didnt realize he had heterochromia. Neat

Think this is his last game?

Dunno

Man, this game is intense!

21 sats \ 1 reply \ @Jer OP 2 Nov

It sure is. What a series.

So close, but not enough. Sigh.

@realBitcoinDog you good?

GOOOOOOOOL!!!

21 sats \ 2 replies \ @kepford 2 Nov

Well, Ohtani is throwing heat. So he isn't pacing himself.

It’s incredible, really.

It is. You run out of words.

Another run or two would be nice.

More runs please.

Let's go Max. Stay sharp. Still early.

Let's go bats. Have a better inning.

Jays deserve to win after that double play

42 sats \ 0 replies \ @grayruby 2 Nov

They have played great defense tonight.

This is wild. Wrobleski wasn't trying to hit Giminez but he acted like a jackass after Giminez said "what was that"

20 sats \ 11 replies \ @WeAreAllSatoshi 2 Nov

Wasn’t the batter trying to get hit by flailing his arm in there? Why isn’t that against the rules?

50 sats \ 10 replies \ @grayruby 2 Nov

He wasn't trying to get hit.

20 sats \ 9 replies \ @WeAreAllSatoshi 2 Nov

What was he doing, just fucking with the pitcher?

50 sats \ 8 replies \ @grayruby 2 Nov

He tucked his arm in. He was trying to get out of the way. It was right at him.

20 sats \ 5 replies \ @WeAreAllSatoshi 2 Nov

I meant in the previous 2 pitches before he was hit

50 sats \ 4 replies \ @grayruby 2 Nov

He got out of the way of those. So clearly he wasn't trying to get hit or he would have let one of them hit him.

20 sats \ 3 replies \ @WeAreAllSatoshi 2 Nov

Did you see what I’m talking about, though?

It is almost impossible to stand in and get hit on purpose. Your brain will do everything possible to get you out of the way.

40 sats \ 0 replies \ @WeAreAllSatoshi 2 Nov

That certainly makes sense to me

70 sats \ 4 replies \ @kepford 2 Nov

Giminez was trying to mess with him. Pretty sure he was trying to get hit. That's fine but he was glad to get on base.

0 sats \ 3 replies \ @grayruby 2 Nov

If he was trying to get hit he would have let the first two that barely missed him hit him.

20 sats \ 2 replies \ @kepford 2 Nov

Looked like he moved into it to me.

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @grayruby 2 Nov

He tucked his arm in. He was clearly trying not to get hit but it was right at him. It is left on left. He is trying to stay in as long as possible to guard against the breaking ball away.

20 sats \ 0 replies \ @kepford 2 Nov

I mean I don't care either way. Don't care about him messing with the pitcher either. It's a mental game.

20 sats \ 0 replies \ @kepford 2 Nov

Amped up.

What is dumb is the fans. Pitchers are not trying to give gift base runners.

20 sats \ 0 replies \ @Jer OP 2 Nov

Pretty crazy. I wouldn’t want Barger running at me.

0 sats \ 2 replies \ @grayruby 2 Nov

Wow the missed opportunities yesterday and today.

40 sats \ 1 reply \ @Jer OP 2 Nov

Do you think it’s worth bringing in Schneider in for the man with one leg?

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @grayruby 2 Nov

Not at this point. Bo is going to be station to station. What you wanted was him up with guys on in the first to drive them in but Vladdy looking at strike three and George getting caught stealing or whatever that was kind of nixed that.
