Doolittle is very good

If the Nationals had blown that, I wouldn't have been surprised by a Houston sweep. But they're in good shape now.

Crazy win. The Astros had better start hitting with RISP. They had their chances.
― NoTimeBeforeTime, Wednesday, 23 October 2019 04:06 (four years ago) link
silly to get down on Springer given how godly he's been but man that double could've easily been a triple had he not spent 4-5 seconds watching it and he would've tied up the game on the next fly ball

Tucker was tagging (also a questionable play) so there was definite traffic on the paths.

the ball was nearly caught!
also fallacy of the predetermined sac fly

The fact that Washington was at +180 is nuts, Stras is the best pitcher in this series and Verlander might be gassed

JV did well not to let another run score, but again, about the best he can do is keep his team afloat.
― clemenza, Thursday, 24 October 2019 00:22 (four years ago) link
That was a surprise. I believe conventional wisdom says the second out of an inning at third is okay--worth the risk.

These pitchers suck.
― Andy K, Thursday, 24 October 2019 00:34 (four years ago) link
They're not hitting at all, though. Didn't work, and it of course looks bad when the next two guys get a hit, but I didn't think it was a bad move.
― clemenza, Thursday, 24 October 2019 00:35 (four years ago) link
you have to assume they're *gonna* hit or they're sunk

Bizarre IBB right there. Alvarez has been striking out all postseason, and there's only one out!

Bregman literally costing his team 5 runs
And that's why the IBB is often a bad idea. Strange that they'd change their stance on a dime in the frickin World Series.
This is one of ugliest innings I've ever seen.

I really thought the Astros were the better team. This is crazy

like yeah the Nats have been pretty impressive basically from June onward but really the "secret" has been activating godmode every time you have 2 outs and a man on

Bregman is enough asshole for the whole team though. I hope he twists his ankle on a series-ending error. Go Nats!

man if you told me Fernando Rodney was gonna pitch in this game I would've assumed the Nats were getting massacred
― frogbs, Thursday, 24 October 2019 03:16 (four years ago) link
I thought the IBB to Soto was the right call. I'd have to see it again, but I thought Kendricks' ground ball should have been turned into an out (I think he got credited with a hit).
