Giants and Nationals are going into the bottom of the 15th tied 1-1

[Mr. Flopnuts]

Anyone watching this on FS1? What a great game! Giants trying to match the Royal Flush.

[KC_Connection]

3rd longest playoff game ever now (in terms of innings), I believe.

[Kaepernick]

Sandoval almost won it in the 9th but Posey got tagged out at the plate by an inch. No more than an inch.

Great game and I am on pins and needles for my Giants!


Somebody has to blink first.

[-King-]

All this is because of the stupid ass decision to pull Zimmerman in the 9th with 2 outs after a walk even though he had retired 20 straight batters before that. So this is hilarious to me.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

The only game to take more time (over 5 hours now) was back in 05 I think they said.

[GloryDayz]

Just flipped to it...

[kcxiv]

is Posey still in the game? his knee's are going to be screaming bloody murder tomorrow.

[KC_Connection]

All this is because of the stupid ass decision to pull Zimmerman in the 9th with 2 outs after a walk even though he had retired 20 straight batters before that. So this is hilarious to me.
I was rooting for the Giants to hit one out because of that ridiculous decision. Almost.

Hudson started that game too.

[Ming the Merciless]

Gigantes!

This. ROFL

[listopencil]

Huh. Going into the bottom of the 16th 1-1.

What happens if a team runs out of pitchers

What happens if a team runs out of pitchers

Position players start pitching.

[Hydrae]

What happens if a team runs out of pitchers

A bench player has to pitch. If there are no more bench players (more likely than running out of pitchers, especially in the NL), the last pitcher has to keep playing to the end.

[siberian khatru]

Thought he had it

[Baby Lee]

Gaints/Nationals. Baseball's valiant battle against the wind.

[TribalElder]

LMAO top of the 17

[Eleazar]

This is a boring game between boring teams

I remember my dad (a Cards fan) being on a business trip,to NY that night. He watched the beginning of the game,on his hotel room TV, went out to dinner, came back to the hotel late that night, flipped on the TV and the game was still on. He stayed up and watched it.

[TribalElder]

This will easily be the longest playoff game in history

[siberian khatru]

And this is probably the craziest extra-innings game I ever saw.

Especially when he got squeezed on that walk to begin with.

On a side note I think Matt Vangersian is an underrated play-by-play guy. His call on the game tying play was great.

[Ming the Merciless]

Lol bottom 17

[Ming the Merciless]

D- fense

[Mr. Flopnuts]

I think the winner of this game takes the series. Heavy blow to lose one like this. I wouldn't bet against Bochy though if the Giants lose.

[-King-]

Petit has 76 games in relief. Wow.

[Ming the Merciless]

1 away

[MMXcalibur]

And this is probably the craziest extra-innings game I ever saw.

http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/ATL/ATL198507040.shtml

That is an insane amount of stats. :eek:
Jesus Christ....

While its a big blow for the Giants, it's not nearly as much of a blow as it is for Washington. Washington would be down 0-2 and they've been burning a new pitcher every inning. The Giants have had Petit pitch the last 6 innings. Washington is even using a starting pitcher right now.

[tk13]

To the 18th! Two games for the price of one.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

ON TO THE 18TH!

[siberian khatru]

That is an insane amount of stats. :eek:
Jesus Christ....

28 hits. 28!!!

[Mr. Flopnuts]

Absolutely. Petit is impressing the shit out of me.

[Ming the Merciless]

Sf kc series would be cool

I've always wanted a chiefs Niners superbowl

Oh top of 18th lol

[tk13]

While its a big blow for the Giants, it's not nearly as much of a blow as it is for Washington. Washington would be down 0-2 and they've been burning a new pitcher every inning. The Giants have had Petit pitch what will be the last 6 innings. Washington is even using a starting pitcher right now.

At this point Roark is probably going to ride it out for a while. At least through 24 or 25 innings.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

Longest playoff game ever.

[listopencil]

I've got to think that fatigue hurts the D (including the pitchers) more than the O. Am I wrong? Doesn't somebody have to eventually wear down and commit that error that costs the game?

[OldSchool]

Lol, crazy game.

[OldSchool]

I've got to think that fatigue hurts the D (including the pitchers) more than the O. Am I wrong? Doesn't somebody have to eventually wear down and commit that error that costs the game?

Yup, that's what's going to happen. They have to be running on fumes by now. But the bats have got to be tired as well.

[siberian khatru]

Finally

[tk13]

There it is. Bomb city.

[TribalElder]

Golf Stroke

[-King-]

AHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAA GIANTS HOME RUN!

[KC_Connection]

Boom. The Nationals will get what they deserve for their idiotic pull now.

[tk13]

That's how these kind of games always seem to end. Everyone's too tired to string a rally together, so someone has to hit a mistake out.

[Ming the Merciless]

GIGANTES

[Baby Lee]

Kaepernick gets his ONE ray of sunshine for 10/04/14-10/05/14.

[Dartgod]

He really Belted that one.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

San Francisco loves the dong.

[siberian khatru]

Brandon belted it. AMIRITE?

[Dartgod]

Brandon belted it. AMIRITE?

Quite right.

[Kaepernick]

Awesome!

Congratulations Bandon! Job well done.


Longest game in playoff history. Now lets wrap this up and get back to San Francisco up 2-0.


Even year. 2010. 2012. 2014.

[siberian khatru]

Quite right.

[-King-]

I'm kind of rooting for the Nats to score a run here.

[OldSchool]

Holy crud. This game is crazy.

[-King-]

Holy crud. This game is crazy.

That shit cray

[DonTellMeShowMe]

I am tired....

[Kaepernick]

Who doesn't like a good Belt fed weapon?

I hate losing these long games.

Giants lost a game in the 19th inning one time. I listed to the game all the way home in the car on the drive from San Francisco, then getting ready for bed, then listened to the radio in bed. And they lost it in the 19th. By then, it felt like I was on the team. It was devastating. To win one of these isn't euphoric, it is just a feeling of relief and glad its over, but to lose one is just soul crushing.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

I'm kind of rooting for the Nats to score a run here.

Just one though. ROFL

[Kaepernick]

I'm kind of rooting for the Nats to score a run here.

Let it be so.

[kysirsoze]

I'm kind of rooting for the Nats to score a run here.

Yep.

[TribalElder]

A homer here would be hilarious

[OldSchool]

Nats could win this here. Walk-off homerun?

[TribalElder]

Is the guy batting the same guy that does those dr pepper 10 commercials?

[Mr. Flopnuts]

BALL GAME!!!

[siberian khatru]

Poor Nats

[chefsos]

lolnats

[Ming the Merciless]

Whew....

[OldSchool]

There it is, Giants win.

[KC_Connection]

And that's why you don't pull dominating starting pitchers with 2 outs in the 9th inning of a 1 game.

[-King-]

And that's why you don't pull dominating starting pitchers with 2 outs in the 9th inning of a 1 game.

Yep.

[Prison Bitch]

The Nats: NL top seed. Seriously.

[kysirsoze]

I just couldn't believe that. I expected to see Ned Yost cackling in the dugout before disappearing with a cape flourish and a puff of smoke.

[OldSchool]

Giants and Bruce Bochy have been monsters in the post-season.

[DonTellMeShowMe]

Great game...

[tk13]

The Nats: NL top seed. Seriously.

I don't think that's a surprise. They have a pretty solid group on paper. They have power at pretty much every position but CF, many teams can't say that these days... and five starters who are all very good. Their 5th best starter this year was Gio Gonzalez, who is an All-Star caliber guy. If you have five starters like that with a couple decent relievers, you're going to win a lot of games.

[Kaepernick]

Cardinals tied it up at 2 all.


Don Mattingly getting booed. :clap:

I heard Matt Williams was saving Zimmerman for game 6. ROFL
