Well if we are saying things like that, Eovaldi reminds me a bit of Steve Carrell. I like him though

In the pre-game show, Kevin Millar said he'd be bunting as early as the third inning to get a lead. This doesn't really strike me as the series for that.

On the one hand: Gallen is such a fun pitcher to watch when he’s on and it’s great having new young studs coming through. On the other: Seeing him get torched is great because of all the cocky off the field talk he’s on record for.
All in all, whatever happens in a Zach Gallen start, I’m happy. Great player to watch

Oh they started Alek Thomas? He seems like such a good kid.
― felicity, Saturday, 28 October 2023 00:45 (two years ago)
If I know anything about sport broadcasting, there’s going to be a close up shot of that kid crying a couple hours from now
― #1 García Fan (H.P), Saturday, 28 October 2023 00:47 (two years ago)
Alek Thomas wouldn't cry

Ha! I stand corrected, Kevin Millar.)

...which, counter-intuitively, might be where you question the bunt. They gave up an out for two runs that would have scored anyway. If Carroll scores, doesn't matter; if not, maybe.

SPEED!

Christian Walker just cannot get it going

I've got to believe Texas is a little rattled with Eovaldi getting dinged--he was their one (or at least #1) pitching weapon.
― clemenza, Saturday, 28 October 2023 01:05 (two years ago)
Both starters over 50 pitches now.
― clemenza, Saturday, 28 October 2023 01:07 (two years ago)
Maybe but it’s still only three runs. They can get out of it
― mojo dojo casas house (gyac), Saturday, 28 October 2023 01:07 (two years ago)
I don't know if it's too early for an IBB...but I'd consider it.
― clemenza, Saturday, 28 October 2023 01:08 (two years ago)
You do not want to pitch high and inside to Garcia right now Gallen
― #1 García Fan (H.P), Saturday, 28 October 2023 01:09 (two years ago)
Oh man, that was the pitch to hit
Suspension! (Okay, I'll retire that joke.)

Common Garver, hit a granny, let’s make this a ball game!
― #1 García Fan (H.P), Saturday, 28 October 2023 01:11 (two years ago)
Semi-intentional, I think.

Don’t show me sad O’s in the World Series 🙁
Oh, what a pitch.

That was a great AB
― #1 García Fan (H.P), Saturday, 28 October 2023 01:14 (two years ago)
Man is just not executing, he was lucky Garver didn’t whack one of those fastballs in the exact same location out of there
― mojo dojo casas house (gyac), Saturday, 28 October 2023 01:14 (two years ago)
Way Garver approached it, I think that was the best possible conclusion there, he looked ready to hit one there
― #1 García Fan (H.P), Saturday, 28 October 2023 01:15 (two years ago)
That ain’t a good stat line Jonah
Lucky to get out of that with just one but yeah if I’m him I’m hoping for a long top of the 4th
― mojo dojo casas house (gyac), Saturday, 28 October 2023 01:17 (two years ago)
About as even as you could get right now with both teams playing their own way! Dbacks getting their runs through small ball, bunt and run inside singles sac fly business; Rangers getting theirs through just unrelenting plate discipline. Feels like. Earned 4 walks already compared to the dback’s 0.Hope these three innings are a micro capsule of what this series will be!
― #1 García Fan (H.P), Saturday, 28 October 2023 01:18 (two years ago)
Both starters gave leads right back--to paraphrase Ben Bradlee, the non-shutdown shutdown inning.

I remember making some post about Tommy Pham in one of these World Series threads many years ago...he might have been a rookie then.
