Karl dear, I will just barely be able to root for the St Looies against the Stanks should it come to that. Don't ask for more.

mookieproof, Saturday, 12 October 2019 01:06 (six years ago)

but that was pre-Juan Soto

I can p much never root for the Cards bcz of

1) the Herzog teams
2) the "So Taguchi game" which I watched from the last row of Shea Stadium where the wind chill was approx 30 F

Wong on the run

Gotten over the idea of quitting baseball fandom since Friday night... Upper-deck Sec. 11 had the most cretinous, drunken crowd I’ve been subjected to in 37 seasons of going to Shea. Abusing Cardinal fans, standing at random points, beer after beer -- my friend saw some fool in a Yankee jersey midgame get bathed with the contents of ketchup and mustard tubs at the concessions (victim was so shitfaced he found it hilarious and invited folks to put cigarettes out on him) ...Plus the Mets would NOT let ticketholders watch BP from the field boxes if you had a ticket for another level (as they do in the regular season), so fuck them (and "God Bless America"), no more postseason attendance for me.

Also, last row of the section = wind blowing directly on you for 5 hours.

Nice touch: Psycho theme on PA when LaRussa comes out to mound.

I don't wanna see Trachsel throw another pitch.

van horn street and i may be the only posters here who have actually lived in montréal (although there are too many canadians to keep track of)

you could stand to learn from us. because fuck every single dc team (except for the mystics tbh)

mookieproof, Saturday, 12 October 2019 01:38 (six years ago)

When the series goes to DC I expect to see crowd shots of Brett Kavanaugh and Tombot (not together)

I have been to a Nats game with Tombot! beat that

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 12 October 2019 01:42 (six years ago)

Man, I didn’t realize what a major league douchebag Juan Soto is! That’s too bad because he’s to fucking good.

*grabs crotch and takes a step toward you*

also I see from the 2006 thread that maura also froze at the So Taguchi game

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 12 October 2019 01:43 (six years ago)

maybe one of the Cards will make their classy throat-slitting gesture at Soto

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 12 October 2019 01:44 (six years ago)

That was dumb but wasn’t that in retaliation for acuña doing the same thing? (Somehow I didn’t catch all of this as it happened)

I can't drink tonight (meds) so the Ben & Jerry's Salted Caramel Core has come and gone.

I forgot that Davey M is (justifiably) terrified of his bullpen

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 12 October 2019 02:46 (six years ago)

Well and maybe plus his guy is six outs away

timellison, Saturday, 12 October 2019 02:54 (six years ago)

I know it sounds crazy, but I sometimes wonder if, in that situation, it's worth walking Sanchez (intentionally unintentionally) and get him on the basepaths. There are precise measurements of the situational advantage of two outs/none on vs. one out/runner on first; I don't know if anyone's ever studied pitchers pitching after running the bases.

I know you've heard this from me before, but no one should care
