See how the Sux had the bases loaded with no outs and managed to plate a pair?? That's how you do it. That's baseball. Not the Yankees solo homerun bullshittery.
If Rice takes over at first next year, who's the catcher? Not Wells or Escarra. Maybe one of those guys we traded because we had so many, many catchers.
I'll agree with Schlittler but, due to the injury to Giolito, it will either be Early or Harrison for the BloSox. Neither is a household name. Early came up in September.
Sorry to hear Winwarb. One of my Labs died not long ago. He was my best friend. His sister is 11 1/2 and it's sad to see her age. Losing our dog family friends is like losing a child.
Dodgers have taken the lead, and are clearly the better team. BUT...doesn't hurt that the ump calls every single thing that Yamamoto throws up there a strike. I swear, they must have called 9 out of 10 pitches out of the box, strikes. He may be in trouble next year, if they're really going to the robo umps.
Almost bizarre how sluggishly and badly the Reds are playing, even though they're only down 3-2. Their fielding is now reaching Metsian proportions of ineptitude. I guess just getting to the postseason was enough for them.

Off to a flying start. Sort of.
RICE !!!
Huh. Think Rice should've played yesterday? I dunno...
Gee, Hoss, why would you say that?
Come on now, Hoss. You’re not blaming Boone and his ManageCom cronies, are yah?
That was an elite double play.
I'm sorry, but Eduardo sounds so biased for the Red Sox to my ears. Maybe I'm imagining it.
Oh this is going swimmingly.
RoRooooooo
I like to load the bases for the top of the order.
Chisholm? First? Why?
Geeze Rodon instantly loses focus when something goes wrong
Bunt
It's too bad that we are a fundamentally shitty team.
Ok THAT was a great dp!
Time to start making plans for the off-season.
They can make a sweet double play like that, but they can't field a bunt. Aaargh.
Ha-luckily
See how the Sux had the bases loaded with no outs and managed to plate a pair?? That's how you do it. That's baseball. Not the Yankees solo homerun bullshittery.
Not to be confused with Bull Schlittlery
Cora managing
Or Bull Durhammy.
ok, the Boone Morrison photo is deeply disturbing. NOT to jinx anything, but what would the pitching matchups be tomorrow if the world doesn't end?
Bellinger showing some helmet hating emotion
Thank You, Bit.
It would be Schlittler vs Pedro
Double steal? Who are these guys?
Bello gone already?
Bellinger can't get the run in?
What the hell?
shit on a shingle
Fuckendoodle.

Small ball Judge
Looks like a line drive in the box score.
(Until they change it to an error, anyway.)
Finally!
So, which reliever blows the game? We should have a betting pool.
Yes, that may hurt our chances
Someone pass me a cudgel…
I'll agree with Schlittler but, due to the injury to Giolito, it will either be Early or Harrison for the BloSox. Neither is a household name. Early came up in September.
Why not Gil in for relief?
There's no way that Boone and the bullpen don't blow this game.
Boone will signal for Nestor.
Rice
Ben Rice. Thank God he wasn't in the lineup last night
Oh yeah - forgot
And Boone didn’t leave Fried in the game when he went out to pull him
Stanton is not hot and we need him.
Jazz can really be awful
He is more than he's not.
Cora bringing in a new pitcher for Volpe. An unnecessary move.
So Volpesque.
Terrible AB, AV
Good night. I'll save my disappointment for the morning.
Awful, little league style AB by Volpe
I haven’t felt, at one moment since last night’s game ended, any anxiety or stress about tonight. I know they’re going to lose.
Oh, boy. To the bullpen.
Cruz. Uh-huh, uh-huh.
Cruz ? The beginning of the end
On a completely different note, I had a shit September. One of our cats and our miniature dachshund both passed away.
I know a lot is going on but I need to say that Sogards hair annoys me.
Sorry for your losses, Winnie
Sorry to hear about that, WW.
That’s awful Winny - my condolences
Sorry to hear Winwarb. One of my Labs died not long ago. He was my best friend. His sister is 11 1/2 and it's sad to see her age. Losing our dog family friends is like losing a child.
So sorry to hear that, Winnie. Sending condolences. I prefer cats and dogs to people most of the time.
Terrible AB, MVP
What a fine minor league player Judge becomes in the playoffs.
WILLIAMS ?!?
Who was that pitcher?!
Hey…his ERA in the regular season was under…uh….5… it must be time to go wash my face in the toilet bowl
It appears that I can no longer handle the stress of a tight game
Boone was hired for his ability to mimic stat-boys starting line-ups.
Has no ability to adapt to changing situations either in needing a new line up, or in changing situations within the game.
The Yankees only win despite him.
Never look back, Jazz. But thank you for scoring
Boone was a genius to bench Rice and Chisolm last night, wasn't he?
Why, of course!
Tonight they're rested@
Ugh
Last thing we need is to put the leadoff hitter on base…
Do not believe what you are seeing.
Boone is a SUUUPER GENIUS.
I think that’s the first time a pitch in that spot was called a strike. Good timing, ump!
Schlittler-time !
Yankees Win!!!
I NEVER doubted the Yankees would win.
Had it all the way…
Th-uhuhuhuh Yankees ripped our guts out and won. Hooray.
These games are killing me
Woo hoo!
WHOOOOO HOOOOOOOOO!!!!
I thought for sure that las ball was. going out
Flashback to Piazza off Mo in 2000
It was a real uh-oh moment.
Jazz and Rice showing us how stupid that dear ol Boonie is...ofc we all knew that already but I digress
I think that since MLB went to a best 2 out of 3 wild card format, all but 2 were sweeps. Today all 3 teams facing elimination won. So … go, Reds.
Heil Schlittler!
Too soon.
Hey, it's been 80 years!
the agony prolonged...
Well…at least it wasn’t the Agony of Defeat
Perhaps it's the Defeat of Agony?
You’re a wide-eyed optimist, Mr. Bit.
Whitlock threw 47 pitches tonight…
I'm trying to keep an open mind...
Dodgers have taken the lead, and are clearly the better team. BUT...doesn't hurt that the ump calls every single thing that Yamamoto throws up there a strike. I swear, they must have called 9 out of 10 pitches out of the box, strikes. He may be in trouble next year, if they're really going to the robo umps.
