    Don't count the Dodgers out yet.

    Still think my prediction of LA Dodgers and NY Yankees will come to fruition ... with the Dodgers taking all the marbles home.

    Judge finally tagged one last night. First in 66 ABs.

    Could almost have said that for the Guards......up 3-1 in 8th with the best closer in the league pitching. They both had the win then gave it up..........

    Oh well, Cleveland tried but hard to win giving up 8 runs and your offense is 4 of 15 with runners in scoring position and 12 left on base.

  • These playoffs have resembled an NFL game when the defenses are exhausted and the offense marches up and down the field. Whoever has still pitching will survive. The World Series may feature call-ups from the Arizona Fall League.

    So far so good for buying your way to the World Series. :D

    Cleveland's lack of clutch hitting and the worn out bullpen finally took its toll..............Yankees move on to the world series.

    Time for Soto to ask for his moon money of the game winner. That's why they got him for those moments.

    Hes been asking for that for years with multiple teams. The Nats gave him a 400 million plus offer but a lot was differed. Went to the Padres wasnt very good and wast interested in an extension. Traded to the Yankees which is a much better park to hit in and has still said hell just sign with who ever gives him the most money

    So this afternoon I checked my phone to see what time game 1 started and got……. Friday!😂

    Now I guess I just don’t care since mlb doesn’t even seem to care about getting it started. Damn they could have been playing tues., wed, and Friday.

    Quite the glare by Stanton at Flaherty after that head high sailing pitch. Few pitches later launch time by Stanton.

    Nice catch by Verdugo. Jeter like into the stands.

    Jeter took like 3 steps before going into the stands, Verdugo had to go into the stands.

    I wish they could both lose but at least it was Freeman with the walk off grand slam

    Yankees sure had their chance in the 9th inning. Bases loaded and only one out. However no further scoring.

  • FredJRIFredJRI Posts: 390 ✭✭✭

    Yep, sort of choked last night in the 10th as well.

    I'm really a Red Sox fan. Always have been always will be.
    As the say at the home games "Yankees S+*k" .. not really true but I like the sound !!!
    Personally I think Judge is great., Yankees had a lot of super players. (did I just really say that ? )

    GO L A DODGERS .lololololol

    It’s a lot to take.

  • DarinDarin Posts: 7,051 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I thought Amsinger and Plesac were going to come to blows after the game yesterday. The question was….. would you rather have a 2-0 series lead and Ohtani is out the rest of the series or the series tied 1-1 but Ohtani is healthy the rest of the series. Plesac says take the 2-0 lead, Amsinger says hell no take the tied series and have Ohtani playing. Pretty heated argument they had.
    Of course all hypothetical but I say take the 2-0 lead and go without Ohtani. When Teoscar Hernandez is probably your 4th best hitter and Kike is a proven postseason clutch player you should have plenty of offense. Teoscar is a beast and on some teams would be the best hitter.
