Not-So-Obnoxious Baseball Thread

[FreshZ]

That call was horrible. I feel sad for the Braves fans. The other call earlier when the batter was called out when he was hit on the head on the throw to first, I called that before the umpire did. That was spot on correct.

As a cards fan. Couldn't agree more on both calls. Simmons was out, the infield fly was a bad call.

I don't feel bad for the braves fans for 2 reasons.
1. They embarrassed themselves and baseball by pitching a hissy fit and becoming vandals.
2. This is payback for the braves of the 90's that beat our ass any time we did anything.

Something no one will talk about now is the crappy call in letting Ross call timeout on that strikeout pitch. That was too late and it should have been a K. Instead he hits the homer. Lohse fault for serving up the same pitch, but still.

I can't believe Texas is out. Man they were so good all year. Crazy.

Let's go O's!! Orioles magic baby!

Yeah you guys have been great, good luck. I never thought I'd see the O's on top. 15 years is a long time to wait for post-season play.

I'm rooting for the Tigers to take it in the end though. On Cabrera's back.

Man this sucks! I am speechless. This was our year. Im heart broken. This team will not be the same next year. Gonna be some changes made. Probably starting with Hamilton. Napoli is a free agent too. Its gonna be a long few moths until spring training.

Let's go O's!! Orioles magic baby!

Congrats. They played a damn good game and beat us. Good luck in the playoffs.

Lololololololol at the Nats. Shelve Strausberg in the divisional, get raped by a far inferior team. Best team in the NL gonna get sent home cause they aren't throwning their arguably best player even though he's healthy.

Maybe someone's trying too hard to win mgr of the year. Too much thinking. Anyway, they are only down 1 game so far, right?

Well, I agree about not pitching strassburg being dumb, but far inferior team?

That may be going too far. 2nd best offense in MLB, best catcher in baseball, NL leader in saves, last years WS and NLCS MVP, Carpenter, Wainwright, and oh yea, defending champs.

Plus, apparently we don't even start trying until October every year.

You don't have the best catcher in baseball. That title belongs to this year's NL MVP Gerald Dempsey Posey.

He may be the best hitting catcher, but not the best catcher. Molina has been the best catcher for a while now. This year he just hit lights out too. Not as good as posey, but overall it's Molina.

Holy ****ing A's. Team of destiny.

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

The A's are effin amazing.

Brother-in-law sent a text. Say's he put a Valverde poster on his bedroom door and now it wont close. Any suggestions

Hey Mat Latos, suck my dick.

Hey Mat Latos, suck my d**k.

Amen to that. Nothing better than to slam an NLDS title in the face of a guy who openly criticizes another team simply because he "hates" them. One of the most nerve-wracking games I've ever seen, but my G's are headed to the NLCS.

Dude I thought I was gonna have a heart attack during that Bruce at bat. Romo is a straight gamer. I think I came when Posey hit that grand salami off of Latos and it went upper deck and hit the sign that said Latos on it. Openly hates my team, my city, comes into our yard and taunts kids having fun, breaks our announcers car's sunroof then tells him to **** off and deal with it. Seriously nothing against the Reds or their fans, great team, but also seriously **** that guy. Oh well, it was great to see my Giants move on and beating him made it that much sweeter, but now it's time to get on with winning the whole god damned thing. LET'S GO GI-ANTS!!!!!

What do you expect from a guy who owns a cat named "Cat Latos". I mean, WFT?

Is that true? If so, I might change my mind and like him. I always thought he was a huge turd, but with a sense of humor like that, he can't be all bad. Well, yea he can (but that name is awesome).

Climb back in Cards!!!

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

Holy ****!!!! Is anybody watching this cardinals game????

 

[iaefebs]

Not anymore..... What a game. Congrats to the Cardinals. What a comeback, almost turned it off at 6-0

 

[FreshZ]

Unbelievable. Descalso? Who knew?

 

[scrambledegg81]

Un.

Be.

Lievable.


Someone get a doctor to write Storen a prescription for Prozac......like, now.

 

[leftcontact]

Iaefebs: tell him to put a Storen poster on the other side.

 

[leftcontact]

I'm from Baltimore, live in no. Virginia now... Been watching baseball all day and I think I need more beer.

Well played, StL. Decent game, NY. Thank you for awesome years, Orioles and Nats. But I wanted at least one more week..

Only bright side: wife's a braves fan...

I think the door would fall off the hinges.

Not looking good for the Yanks at this point...

Not looking good for the Yanks at this point...

Jeter injury might inspire the Yanks, who knows. I like Jeter and am sorry he is out. The Tigers, because of Valverde, used up Dotel and Smyly for tomorrow.(today) Yanks should be OK for relief if needed. Tigers might have to rely on Albuquerque, which isn't bad. Winning this game was huge for the Tigers. The Valverde thing ? I don't have a clue what to do. The rosters are set.

 

[Homercidal]

My apologies to the Yankees for the unbelievable blown call at second.


hehehehehe....
