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

Doesn't matter though. He's out.
That's why Bo is in the game.
“Beau”
Dodgers are running out of chances
They only need one more
They are killing me.
There it is
They did it

That was an unbelievable game
it was an unbelievable series
Classic.
Vlad Guerrero should have been MVP regardless of which team won
Earl Weaver: pitching, defense and 3 run homer
Yamamoto was pretty darn good.
This is wild. Wrobleski wasn't trying to hit Giminez but he acted like a jackass after Giminez said "what was that"
Wasn’t the batter trying to get hit by flailing his arm in there? Why isn’t that against the rules?
He wasn't trying to get hit.
What was he doing, just fucking with the pitcher?
He tucked his arm in. He was trying to get out of the way. It was right at him.
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.
That certainly makes sense to me
I meant in the previous 2 pitches before he was hit
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.
Did you see what I’m talking about, though?
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.
If he was trying to get hit he would have let the first two that barely missed him hit him.
Looked like he moved into it to me.
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.
I mean I don't care either way. Don't care about him messing with the pitcher either. It's a mental game.
Amped up.
What is dumb is the fans. Pitchers are not trying to give gift base runners.
Pretty crazy. I wouldn’t want Barger running at me.
More baserunning mistakes!
That was pretty embarrassing
Jays have played better baseball but base running has been a bit questionable
too many sliders
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
No because the ump missed three pitches in the bottom of the 8th
A lot of poor calls, but I'd be bummed if it decides the World Series
Dodgers swinging more freely
Max likes to be aggressive in the zone.
That was close to being a scoring inning without that stop by Vlad
Great play on the swinging bunt.
No doubt
They sure are
Tough loss but a great season for the Jays. Way too many missed opportunities in game 6 and 7
Another costly baserunning error.
Wow... Running? Really? Dude is hurt.
Jays repeat gift to the dodgers.
I'll take it. A free out
Dodgers chipping away. Feels like the Jays need a couple more runs.
I agree
Hat tip to Max. Hall of famer. Great job.
Didnt realize he had heterochromia. Neat
Think this is his last game?
Dunno
Back to playing Blue Jays baseball. LFG!
Let's get some more runs and make this a comfortable lead.
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.
Well, Ohtani is throwing heat. So he isn't pacing himself.
It’s incredible, really.
It is. You run out of words.
Let's go Blue Jays.
Enjoy the game @Jer. Might be awhile before we get another one of these.
We can talk about dynasty tomorrow. Enjoy the game. Hoping you make some memories with the family!
Indeed.
Is Vladdy’s step mom younger than he is?
Man, this game is intense!
It sure is. What a series.
So close, but not enough. Sigh.

Doesn't look like it
He did!!
I don't think he deserves credit for that amazing catch
An out is an out
This game is so ridiculous
Another run or two would be nice.
More runs please.
The Leather saves the day.
Let's go Max. Stay sharp. Still early.
Let's go bats. Have a better inning.
Good job Max. Nice play Vladdy.
@realBitcoinDog you good?
GOOOOOOOOL!!!
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.
view on x.comJays deserve to win after that double play
They have played great defense tonight.
Wow the missed opportunities yesterday and today.
Do you think it’s worth bringing in Schneider in for the man with one leg?
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.
extra innings again?
This game is insane.
Every game I've watched
oh. we do this? good to know!
Mic drop
#1272060
Ugh
Jays outscore the Dodgers 34-26 in the series but not when it matters most.
That was it. Knew Smith would connect eventually
Exhale!
EXTRA INNINGS!!
#1272024
Man, f the dodgers
From where I'm sitting it sounds like dodgeball.
Let’s go, Varsho!
I'm not watching this game, but my folks are (on a gimpy phone because i dont have a tv) and their excitement is a little infectious.
Alright Jays, bottom 9 heroics. Put em away
Rojas!!!!!!!!
Rojas!
Oh shit!
Great play by Muncy saved a run.
Why is Snell in there?
Why?!?
Two lefties coming up.
Here comes Ol’ Baggy Eyes
Kirk needs to call some heaters
Another great play
They really are trying to kill Louis Varland.
Its funny watching people with too much money (half kidding) show the world they don't know baseball.
Not a lot of pitchers can get hit by a line drive and keep going. Oof
I’m actually watching this one
DODGERS SCORE!!!!
Well done!!
Have we learned from our mistakes in the first inning?
Varsho missed a cookie.
I hope Lukes gets this monkey off his back. Even a single before the end of the game.
I've been thinking the same about Muncy.
Lol thanks for the HR Munc.
Georgie!
