Philadelphia vs Houston - World Series thread

[BigSoxFan]

Verlander hasn’t been good in the postseason.

 

[E5 Yaz]

This FOX booth needs a mime to balance out Smoltz

FTFY

This FOX booth needs a hitter to balance out Smoltz

What, guy goes after Smoltz with a shattered bat shard?

 

[derekson]

FTFY

At least Joe Davis is an upgrade from Joe Buck.....

 

[E5 Yaz]

At least Joe Davis is an upgrade from Joe Buck.....

Agreed. I like him a lot.

 

[Sad Sam Jones]

Oh yeah?

Yeah, they're just playing with the mouse a little before they kill it.

 

[derekson]

Both pitch counts are insanely high for 4 innings

 

[phrenile]

Both pitch counts are insanely high for 4 innings

Nola could still go 6.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Get Verlander out of there.

 

[Al Zarilla]

My 11 year old little league grandson could probably hit Verlander right now.

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

Verducci sucks and SI was overrated

Verducci indeed sucks, but old SI was pretty great. I miss it.

I doubt he can hit 97, even if it's poorly located

Granderson?

EDIT: Didn’t realize that pic was also a link. Damn, he looks the same.

 

[Al Zarilla]

I exaggerated.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Dusty.... ya messed up.

 

[canderson]

Hell yea

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

SMASHED! TIED UP!

 

[derekson]

Dusty Baker asleep at the wheel as usual

 

[Al Zarilla]

Ah, Dusty...

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

The mystery of why Dusty doesn’t have a ring continues.

 

[Sandwich Pick]

This team is resilient AF

 

[patinorange]

Over

Idiot

 

[staz]

Dayum!

Verlander still 0 for WS

 

[phrenile]

The mystery of why Dusty doesn’t have a ring continues.

Only one ring.

 

[derekson]

Verlander is gonna be useless for the rest of the series at this point too

 

[Ted Cox 4 president]

I love baseball!

 

[Sad Sam Jones]

OK, I admit it's become a good game... I'll still take Houston's pen over Philly's.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Nola had settled down.

 

[staz]

Oh fuck this ad.

 

[Reggie's Racquet]

Oh fuck this ad.

Derek Jeeper.

 

[derekson]

Derek Jeeper.

Good one

 

[staz]

Alvarado's throwing smoke.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Great balls of fire.

 

[phrenile]

If both sides go scoreless in the sixth, the line score will have rotational symmetry for one commercial break.

 

[loshjott]

Verlander’s WS ofer continues.

 

[McBride11]

Shoulda started wheeler with this 2-3-2 setup, steal one early. Of course HoF JV going off and random Astros playing outta their minds.

What an idiot

 

[derekson]

What an idiot

Well, Dusty did Dusty things and left JV in after he was clearly fading.

 

[Ale Xander]

No home run, boooooo

 

[derekson]

I think I would've left Alvarado in for the rest of the inning. He only threw 7 pitches.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

10:30 and the bottom of the 6th.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Castellanos circles it like a water Buffalo.

 

[Sandwich Pick]

I think I would've left Alvarado in for the rest of the inning. He only threw 7 pitches.

Also, Eflin's home/road splits this year are alarming.

 

[derekson]

Castellanos circles it like a water Buffalo.

You judging water buffaloes?

 

[derekson]

Also, Eflin's home/road splits this year are alarming.

Eflin is at double the pitch count to get 1 out. Alvarado was sharp.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

AlecTheBohm is LEGIT.

 

[phrenile]

Behold the rotational symmetry.

 

[Ale Xander]

That play was the Bohm

 

[Sandwich Pick]

Bohm has come a long way defensively this year. Hard to believe this is the same guy.
