that's no factor in the WS
it's just when the pitches ran out

Wasn't saying it was a factor for crying out loud

I don't think that the Nats can win the WS by using only 4-5 multitasking pitchers like the 2001 Diamondbacks but it'll be fun watching them try.

their bullpen has yet to cost em a game, feels like they're due

looong road til Doolittle

dunno if you just wanna be cranking fastballs down the middle here

Hudson's the guy they traded for

Juan Soto seems like a big deal.

whoa I don't think I've ever seen anyone tag up from first

daaamn that was in his glove

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
― frogbs, Wednesday, 23 October 2019 17:39 (four years ago) link
Tucker was tagging (also a questionable play) so there was definite traffic on the paths.

had he not spent 4-5 seconds watching it and he would've tied up the game on the next fly ball
the ball was nearly caught!
also fallacy of the predetermined sac fly

maybe Mike Minor could do better against these guys...

The fact that Washington was at +180 is nuts, Stras is the best pitcher in this series and Verlander might be gassed
― frogbs, Thursday, 24 October 2019 00:17 (four years ago) link
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.

srsly what the hell

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

apt to see some offense when the pens get in
Corbin again tonight?

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.
