[E5 Yaz]

Kelly was not happy:

That was a really good job by the analysts describing it

 

[Fred in Lynn]

Does anyone know if the DBacks have any 23-year-old players? Broadcast crew won’t say.

Teams that have never played a Game 7: Colorado Rockies (est. 1993) Seattle Mariners (est. 1977) San Diego Padres (est. 1969) Philadelphia Phillies (est. 1883) (* -- Chicago White Sox played a Game 7 in a best-of-9 in 1919)

Wow

 

[donutogre]

Wow

That is totally bonkers.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Talk about a beautiful left-handed swing… Seager.

 

[AMS25]

Seager! Suck it Astros.

 

[Looch]

One of the best things about game 7 is that Smoltz will no longer have air time after the game ends.

 

[derekson]

Ugh. I guess it's nice to have a Game 7 but hopefully the Phillies bring their bats tomorrow.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

0/3 on scoring with a runner on 3rd, 1 out... didn't matter at all.

Pretty surprised honestly Arizona got to a game 7. They are so outmatched on paper... but Philly hasnt' played well the past four games, either.

So 2013 Tigers if the Phllies lose this series

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

What were the preseason odds for Dbacks to win the World Series?

 

[Ale Xander]

Ugh. I guess it's nice to have a Game 7 but hopefully the Phillies bring their bats tomorrow.

Something like 11-0 Zona would be great

 

[derekson]

One of the best things about game 7 is that Smoltz will no longer have air time after the game ends.

Won't he be calling the World Series?

 

[Ale Xander]

Nice hit but don’t admire it

 

[Looch]

Wow, minor league camera work for a huge moment.

 

[loshjott]

Garcia lucky to get to first on that one.

 

[Comfortably Lomb]

Garcia is an idiot.

 

[Ed Hillel]

What a dumbass

 

[Al Zarilla]

Camera guy stoned?

 

[Ted Cox 4 president]

Close but not THAT close.

 

[patinorange]

Should be on second base. Wow.

 

[strek1]

Hot Dog that some more dummy. May cost your team a run.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Well, there you go lol

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

How about you run, you dumbass.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

There's 2023 Cristian Javier.

 

[Deweys New Stance]

Merrill Kelly looks like Chris Elliott’s son

 

[patinorange]

Hot Dog that some more dummy. May cost your team a run.

Million-dollar bat. Ten cent head.

 

[Looch]

OMG shit show Astros!

 

[AMS25]

Mitch is still en fuego.

 

[Ed Hillel]

How the hell did that fall lol

 

[Ale Xander]

Let’s keep ‘em coming Rangers

 

[Ale Xander]

Mitchy bloop

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Whoah, that's a horrific play from the HOU outfield.

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

Keep em coming

 

[canderson]

Pants off!

 

[InsideTheParker]

Hot Dog that some more dummy. May cost your team a run.

He doesn't care. He scores.

 

[Al Zarilla]

You guys never saw Manny Ramirez admire a 400 foot drive into a single? I hate it when my team's guys do it, but they do.

 

[Jim Ed Rice in HOF]

Ruh roh Rastro.

 

[strek1]

He doesn't care. He scores.

Of course he doesn't , but he is a king sized jack ass.

 

[stp130]

Rangers doing what they do

 

[InsideTheParker]

He's taking him out in the first inning??????????????????/

 

[Ale Xander]

That’s it?

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Hopefully this ends up like 2004 ALCS Game 7. A laugher.

 

[strek1]

You guys never saw Manny Ramirez admire a 400 foot drive into a single? I hate it when my team's guys do it, but they do.

I don't know that even Manny would do it in a game 7 though. He would have to be more sure it was gone.

 

[greek_gawd_of_walks]

Absolutely wonderful

 

[DeadlySplitter]

That no one could have anticipated? He regressed majorly this year, John.

I'm actually surprised Dusty is pulling the plug already.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Unlike the D-backs the Rangers really will want to add on here and not settle.

 

[Ale Xander]

Passing the baton to Maton

 

[Al Zarilla]

I don't know that even Manny would do it in a game 7 though. He would have to be more sure it was gone.

That's a good point. Hopefully he'd be game 7 responsible.

 

[stp130]

Need to make this bullpen-proof
