Vlad is getting all the praise for his hitting, but his fielding has been excellent in including many high leverage situations.

Why do runners slide into home on force play ? Isn’t that slower? Maybe afraid of catcher blocking plate.

 

[superjohn]

This series is nuts.

If there's another better World Series I don't remember it.

 

[Scoe]

Come on get on base for Springer.

It is slower. Betts is probably out regardless but IKF might have been safe if he goes full speed through home plate like it's first base

 

[Scoe]

Well Dodgers have this game won, Yamamoto is trained to pitch every day he's a freak of nature.

I'd have to see the replay again but maybe he wasn't aware of where the throw was and was expecting a tag, or just forgot it was a force.

so we got what 7 more innings?

Fresh Prince of Bel Air comes through in the clutch.

 

[superjohn]

Sure would've been nice having Bichette come up.

 

[storrsroars]

You break Ohtani's bat then give up a HR to Smith. Baseball.

 

[Scoe]

Sure would've been nice having Bichette come up.

Or just umm win it in the 9th top of 9th or bottom of 9th?

 

[storrsroars]

Sure would've been nice having Bichette come up.

Sure would've nice if IKF scored and this game was over already.

 

[superjohn]

Or just umm win it in the 9th top of 9th and bottom of 9th?

Keep your best players in the game.

 

[Scoe]

Would be a mistake to take out Yamamoto the Jays can't him at all.

 

[storrsroars]

Springer and Vlad have looked at 4 meatballs. Can't win if you don't swing.

 

[HitDog]

 

[Scoe]

Don't pr Vlad he's fast enough, if he's the winning run then ok.

 

[storrsroars]

ffffffffffffffffffffff

 

[bjc42]

f this

 

[superjohn]

That was the game. He's just an awful player.

Gutted for the Jays

 

[HCCForever]

Darn. Jays had their chances

 

[Scoe]

I hate bunting btw I guess the fact it's IKF it was the right choice, it does bail out the pitcher, oh well.

 

[HCCForever]

Yamamoto has to be MVP

 

[Gutter King]

What a dogfight! Yoshi was nails. Unbelievable WS for him and for us!

 

[gsmooth]

They sure did. I really wanted Clement to score in the 8th after his lead off double. The 1 run lead simply is not enough against a team like the Dodgers.
