I think the guy has as many RBI in the last 3 games as he has all season. Remarkable. Nothing compares to October baseball IMO.
Mookie and JD essentially no shows but Devers and JBJ carrying the team.He has absolutely carried the offense. Incredibly clutch hitting the past three games.
Pearce and Bogaerts have been solid too.Mookie and JD essentially no shows but Devers and JBJ carrying the team.
I wouldn't say that about Mookie. He had led off the previous two games with hits and helped set the tone and silence the crowd. Yes, not that .340 average but not a no show. Also, JBJ hit .282 in the second half of the regular season which was mentioned by the commentator that's been wearing the funny glasses.Mookie and JD essentially no shows but Devers and JBJ carrying the team.
If Joe West was the umpire at Wrigley there would be no Steve Bartman.
I was kind of half listening... The commentators mentioned that the statement MLB gave them was that it was inconclusive right? Or did I get that mixed up? Either way, it's a tough spot to put any umpire in... Just imagine if this was Angel Hernandez instead.You can see the guy on the far right with the light gray shirt leaning his arm directly out from his shoulder, while his hand is on top of the fence. From looking at this picture, I would say the ball is not yet into the fan area, still about over the yellow. All the fans in the first row are up against the fence with arms extended forward.

Barnes with that wicked curve to escape!Tough spot here... don't want Barnes to be the goat, but do want the Stros to score both those runners.
Barnes has been great as has Boston's whole bullpen, Houston's has been a disaster. That's the difference in the series.Tough spot here... don't want Barnes to be the goat, but do want the Stros to score both those runners.

Basically that West ruled it interference and the call stood because the camera angle along the wall was blocked by a security guard leaning over the wall oddly enough which they showed later. Essentially like football replay call on the field was gonna stand.I was kind of half listening... The commentators mentioned that the statement MLB gave them was that it was inconclusive right?

A bunch of UConn fans on the Sox message board now !UConn Husky Matt Barnes with the huge strike out!
I have no idea but cowboy Joe has always sucked, he's the Joey Crawford of baseball. Doesn't take away from there is no Bartman if fatboy Joe was making the call.He's graded out as one of, if not the best umpire this playoffs no? iirc anyway

Been texting with my Stros buddy, he has been saying the bullpen is a major strength all season. This series they either throw it in the dirt for a passed ball or almost hit the batter with every pitch, when they do every once in a while find the strike zone they get rocked.Really surprised Pressly sucked tonight. Guy has been lights out for two months.
Also questioning what kind of work Hinch and Strom were giving Morton in October. Chuck pitched all of four innings in past 37 days and no live game work in past 17. Showed up with poor command and 2-3 mph less velocity tonight.
