Couple neat wild card games this year.

I’m actually going to have to cheer for the white sox against the Astros

And that could have been a double had Stanton not stood there with his dick out of his pants, admiring his "single" home run.

:shake:

Yea that was a bad look but it didn't matter in the end.

And Bo-Sox strikes first. 2-zip in the bottom of 1.

You're right, it didn't matter in the end, but at the time, a base hit could have driven in a run from 2nd.

I hate the Pedsox more than any other team in existence of sport.

Likely pitch different out of the stretch with a runner on 2nd as well.

Yep, agreed. A pitcher isn't going to worry too much about a guy on 1st with 2 outs.

It's a different sequence/situation if a guy is in a RISP though.

3-zip now on a Schwarber bomb.

How much they paying Cole? $35MM per?

$300 million doesn't get you much these days.

All shall not rise got gunned out at home. And by a mile.

YER OUT

That's not what speed do

Don't particularly like either team but it's a little more fun to watch the Yankees implode and know that their fans are gonna meltdown like no other.

Okay....

Alex Rodriguez saying Joey Gallo is a “landing strip” for the fourth time is very highly uncomfortable.....

And did it again in the fifth, watching another ball off the wall (granted, made it to 2nd on the throw home). LMAO

I miss Royals October Baseball.

:(

**** the Yankees.

Indeed.

They’re taking it like a whore on dollar day.

The Jays are so much better than either of these teams in this trash game. Maybe next year.

LOL. Good thing you got Sanchez in for that one pitch.

Can’t stand either one but I guess the Red Sox are the lesser of two evils.

LOL. In the end, the difference between the 2021 Royals and the 2021 Yankees was one extra game.

Rays should kick the shit out of this fraud Red Sox team.

One queer 5 seed from a shit city down, one to go.

Way more fun to watch, too.

12 years and counting since the Yankees last won a World Series…..

To a team and a fanbase that believes it to be their birth right to win the WS every other year, that 12 must feel like 120. Love it. haha

Braves fan here... I'd like to thank you Royals fans for Soler. We wouldn't be where we are without him.

i think stanton went to second on the throw?

The Toronto Blue Jays will be back!

Rays for the sweep.

Tampa is too good with one of the lowest payrolls in the league too. Impressive how they manage to put good teams together usually with low payrolls.

That franchise knows how to scout, develop players (especially pitching). I have nothing but admiration and respect for that organization. I hate them of course because they’re in the AL east but much respect for them. I like the way they’re run from top to bottom and just the way they play baseball.

They had me actually watching baseball.

Watch, the Cards will beat the Dodgers.

Very possible. Without Muncy, I’d probably give the Cardinals a slight lineup edge. Scherzer is better than Wainwright but not by so much that it’s a huge advantage and plus, Wainwright has a serious clutch bone in the post season. Honestly this is probably pretty close to a toss up. I want no part of betting it, except maybe under 7.5 runs.

Wainwright has been hot.

New York has had plenty of seasons recently where most of their sports fans have sucked. So I'm not crazy about Boston advancing. A fan base that has been spoiled with riches yet acts like they have the biggest chip on their shoulder.

It's a shame they got hot way too late. They would have been a lot of fun to watch in the playoffs.

Only if they get to Scherzer early...as well as Waino has pitched, his profile now (not earlier) doesn't usually fare well in postseason. Power stuff usually rules, but I hope I am wrong.

May Scherzer throw the best game of his life!

Good to see you rooting for a Mizzou guy! :D

Obsessed

Should be a good game tonight. Last night was a dud.

Cowboy Joe West behind the plate

Wow. Game started, and the place isn't even close sold out or seats all filled in.

Well it is 5pm out in LA, game starting in middle of rush hour

He may. He's owned the Cardinals.

Grew up a Cardinal fan. Supposedly wanted to come home to St. Louis but our shitty GM thought we had enough pitching and he was too expensive. Signed with the Nationals. Maybe some payback for the rejection.

Mmm... good point. Forgot that it was 5pm PST.

LA is a bitch in traffic. I have a cousin who lives out there and I always know when he is stuck in traffic when he gives me a call lol.

1-0 Cardinals

On a LA team too. Gross but it’s for the greater good

Typical old school STL Cardinals. Whitey would be proud. Bloop hit. SB. Advance to 3B on FB. Score on a passed ball.

It used to really irritate me, but now I just laugh.

In the words of Captain Kirk, "I'll say this for him; he's consistent." :D

LA seeing the ball well but scalding them right at people lol

That was some solid leather from Waino

Sosa never had control and no IF fly rule was called. Why can’t a ss drop a line drive on purpose? Umps screwed that up.

Scherzer and Waino have been amazing this year....
How do their arms still work...?

The background noise in this broadcast is awful. Sounds like a train trying to grind to a complete stop.

they are working Scherzer’s pitch count up. Wonder if that was a plan to get him out ASAP?

sounds a little chunky.? The announcers are terrible

Waino not fooling anybody but so far LA hitting them right at people

I wondered about that as well. Scherzer sure doesn't have his normal stuff tonight. We need to take advantage a little more. It also does not hurt that they do not have Muncey.

yeah for him
He’s not clicking like he usually does but even when the dude is not 100% he’s still damn good.

Watching pitchers bat is the worst. Jesus max

Thankfully its in its last years.

Sosa sucks. Get him out of there.

When did you become a Mizzou fan?????
I’m in shock!

Tied game 1-1.

I know Scherzer wasn’t at the top of his game tonight but he’s still better than Joe Kelly.

Adam W is sooooo good.

As a KC fan it sucks to admit it.

But boy is he good.

Then they show the bullpen and Alex Reyes is warming up. Yikes.

Better get some runs Cardinals.

I think the Cards won the JD Drew trade

I know it’s old school, but it’s awesome to see the command Adam Wainwright and Molina have on the diamond.

:D

Yeah like 15 years ago!

I thought I’d see a lot more stars in the stands tonight.
