Then you may have a 27 hopper through the 5 1/2 hole beat you.SemperFidelisSox said:Guard the lines with 2 outs.

Lowrielicious said:Soto injury the tipping point? Would have stopped a steal or two surely.

It's definitely in the book too, whether that was for good copy I don't know. But I bet at least he's not hanging out in camera view, I've never seen him once during a game.PseuFighter said:

It was absolutely electric night. The only thing that rivaled this was PNC Park last year, and that was unreal with the blackout and everything.

I'm with you, not sure what all the KC love is all about. Oh well, great game either way.
He does weird stuff, like drives around and checks the radio every 15 minutes, or he goes to the gym or even a movie.PseuFighter said:i thought that was just in the disney adaptation of his life. it's true?

The 1-2-3 second inning Soto was still in the game wasn't he? It's not the first game ever that Jon has had a poor 1st inning.E5 Yaz said:
Except that Lester was clearly uncomfortable with him behind the plate
You pretty much just outlined exactly why a lot of people are rooting for KC. Underdogs are more fun to see win because the odds are stacked against them; it's much of the reason the general population rooted for us vs the Yankees in 2004 and why they hate the Yankees, Lakers, Patriots, Duke, etc.MentalDisabldLst said:KC is a good story, but the A's have the staff to potentially go all the way.

I'm gonna guess you're a fan of the Yankees, Canadiens, Lakers, and Cowboys.

Can Ventura start Game 1 still?MiracleOfO2704 said:Pedro is KILLING Yost for bringing in Ventura.
CTSOX said:
Not at all, Boston sports across the board since birth. Just can't pull myself to root against all the former Sox players and Beane is literally "all in" this year.
An OAK LAA series would have been fantastic.
Ill be rooting for the Pirates tomorrow if that makes you feel better.

BornToRun said:I know it didn't pan out but I still have to give Beane credit for going all in this year. He thought this A's team had it in them to win a title and went for it, damn the torpedoes.
