2016 MLB Postseason Thread

And don't forget they were the only team that managed to lose to the Braves in the World Series.

 

Even the NBA schedule is pretty crappy. Thunder-Clippers probably the only really attractive game.

 

They did a 23 for Game 5. They might hit 30 tonight. They'll top 60, maybe even do a 70, in Chicago.

 

23 rating? I read 15.3.

 

There's no momentum in baseball.

2014, Giants lost 10-0 in Gm. 6. Then won in Gm. 7 (of course best WS pitcher ever pitched last 5 innings.)

Kluber > Hendricks; home field; Miller > Chapman. Hate to say Cleveland (after NBA Finals.)

 

Chicago ratings are lower than you would think because the fan base is split.

 

But the Cubs lineup is better.

 

My mistake, I was looking at FanGraphs quickly and it was 23 million viewers, not a 23 rating.

 

That's interesting. I guess that makes sense.

Do the South Siders hate the Cubbies or are they ambivalent toward them? I would think even a White Sox fan would at least be interested to see the game, even if it was to hate watch the Cubs and root for them to lose.

 

If I wasn't working, I would be watching and cheering for the Indians. I was on my feet, cheering and hi-fiving my son, when Kipnis hit the 3-run homer Saturday night.

 

Still weird to me that the only HoF might be Thome.
(I'd ABSOLUTELY shank a nun if it helped get Vizquel in the hall of fame.)
