Wmcmanus Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) Meh... I've got no horse in the race at this point, so I'm just wanting to see both series go 7 games and down to the wire in each of those 7th games with lots of drama. So to that end, Go Dodgers! and Go Tigers! in their respective Game 6 performances! Then if Boston and St. Louis can close it out in Game 7, more power to each of them. That said, it would still be evil fun to watch a full stadium of Cardinals fans sitting there with stunned looks on their faces as the Dodgers celebrate on their field. Then Al could really get pumped up about his Red Sox beating his nemesis Dodgers in the WS. But truthfully, I can't see either the Tigers or Dodgers pulling it out at this point. That closer for the Red Sox is lights out. Automatic. You bat now. Ok, sit down. Now you bat. Ok, sit down... he doesn't even let anyone get on base!

Voltron Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Loki is awesome indeed. I would actually not mind the Sox beating the Dodgers but stupid LA won't make it that far. Go Sox! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wmcmanus Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 Tough way to lose a game, but I think they got the call right. It's not based on intention, and unfortunately when competing for the same space, the runner always has the right of way. Tomorrow is anther day, Red Sox fans. May the ball bounce your way again.

Voltron Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 I got home from the office while a dinner party for Claire's sister was already in progress. I was following the game in the car home and then on my phone during dinner, etc. I got my brothers in law to come with me to watch the game right when Boston tied it 4-4 and it was exciting stuff. That bizarre play was a buzz-kill and really seemed like such a TKO or something but them's the rules. I can't believe that Salty decided to throw the ball to third after that awesome play by Pedroia to Salty to gun down Molina (a catcher who decided not to smash into another catcher, interestingly). I think the Red Sox will be out for blood and the next game will be super interesting but the Cards tasted first blood on Koji tonight and that may be a big factor for the remainder. Fun stuff regardless. Go Sox! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wmcmanus Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 Fun stuff regardless. Go Sox! Yup, I'm convinced now that these are the best two teams in baseball this year. Both have great talent up and down their rosters, play as teams not as individuals, and have that "find a way to win" mentality. Nice to see Peavy really hang in there this time. It was a shame that Salty couldn't come through in the 8th as much as his throw in the 9th. But I agree that he didn't really have a chance to get the runner at 3rd and let his adrenaline get the best of him. Win tonight and you have a best 2 of 3 series with two games at Fenway.

Wmcmanus Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 (edited) Something went terribly Wong for the Cardinals there in the 9th inning! Wow. Two nights in a row these games have ended on very odd plays. Congrats to the loyal Sox fans. It's in your court now.
