Arena The Major League Baseball Thread

sigh.

 

I'm stoked for playoff Nestor.

 

At least there's no way they could complain about the weather today.

 

Just a crappy story:

 

Steven Kwan leading off the game by being Steven Kwan.

 

And that didn’t interrupt the Roll Call much.

 

Stanton to Ump: DROP DEAD!

 

This is why you don’t give up on guys in the regular season.

 

Can I ask: is this home plate ump Angel Hernandez in a Billy Valentine disguise? Jesus...

 

That first pitch to Stanton nearly bounced on the plate lol can't say it's one sided

 

Oh, no -- he's been calling terribly for both teams. Both sides have been complaining about it. It's not like an Eric Gregg/Livan Hernandez thing...

EDIT:

 

Kwan deserves more press, he’s a baller.

 

@heels1785 has been slacking in his evangelism lately...

 

Steven Kwan has three times as many career post season hits as Mike Trout

 

If there weren't a delay id happily mute Bob Costas and tune to WFAN right now. Such cringe

 

Not a bad at bat for Carpenter his first time back. Looks comfortable. Just got beat there on a nice breaking ball. He likes them down and in that one was low over the middle

...

Please rescue Aaron Judge from the leadoff spot. 0-7.

 

Bruce Sutter dead at 69 due to cancer.

 

Happy anniversary @cubman987 and my other cub fan friends.

 

... nice?

//yes I'm going to hell

 

Quite an intense inning. Clase coming in for the 4 out close.

 

You wonder if, after the regular season ended and Judge hit his #62, he already has the notion of a new contract on his mind; and that's what's been affecting him so far in these two games against Cleveland.

 

He's thinking cap off this sensational season with the world series win. Take him out of the lead off spot so he can focus on RBIs and not smashing 1 run home runs. He's not even getting on base at this point. At least he was earning some walks during the home run chase

 

He's not helping his cause by either striking out or feebly grounding to the third baseman.
