Not only is he the first ever pitcher to pitch in the college World Series and World Series in the same year but apparently he's going to Cooperstown.

Per Jeff Passan

Brandon Finnegan's cap from tonight is headed to Cooperstown. The Hall of Fame asked for it, and he said yes. He'll wear a new one Saturday.

That's no shit. WTF is this shit?

Hootie · 10-26-2014, 07:12 AM

and Al asked me what I had against Finnegan

the answer?

NOTHING

but he's a ****ING rookie. This was GOING to happen. When they got the out with the sac bunt, and then he IBB'd Posey...

THE ONLY ****ING PLAY WAS WADE DAVIS.

THAT WAS THE ONLY MOVE.

AND WE GOT ****ING YOSTED.

AND I'LL NEVER GET OVER IT.

We'd have just burnt through a pitcher. At that point you knew it was done.

There is no God damn reason in hell you can justify not going to Davis there.

It was simple.

We had to keep the game tied. Wade Davis gave us, probably, a 65% chance of that happening. Finnegan? 20%

You bring in Davis. Let's say he gets out of it.

4-4.

Top 7. Who knows.

He pitches bottom 7.

4-4.

and then you go to the 8th.

Can't pitch Herrera? Fine.

It's the World Series.

Turn to Holland for 2...

and if it's still 4-4 after 9

Then it is what it is. That gave us 9 outs to win the game by scoring 1 run. We can't do that, then ok. Congrats SF. You win.
