2013 MLB postseason running thread

Agreed, and I think that is the bit some of our Dodgers fanboys here aren't getting. It isn't just a matter of winning this one game. It is a matter of protecting Kershaw for the long run as well, and the Dodgers are failing miserably in that regard no matter how Game 4 turns out.

 

No shit. It's called fucking around.

 

I was with you, Xan. I laughed.

 

Bodie isn't. (Actually, not sure where NDJournalist's loyalties lie, I may have had that one incorrect)

Fine. Make it at least one Dodgers fanboy. Of course, now people have to scroll up to even figure out what the heck we're talking about.

 

@RaysBaseball: Evan Longoria joins KC's Willie Mays Aikens (Oct 14, 1980) as the only players in @MLB history to hit a postseason HR on their birthday.

3-run shot, 3-3.

 

I thought Bill James and the rest of the Sabr-dweebs said clutch hitting doesn't exit.

 

Here's the audio: http://thebiglead.com/2013/10/07/grant-balfour-victor-martinez-exchanged-f-bombs-and-benches-cleared-in-detroit/

Apparently Balfour did not like Martinez' stare down so he flew into a rage. Love that, Balfour "Come on out here b*tch!"

Funniest thing, watch the home plate ump, he skips out after it looks like a brawl developing. I'm pretty sure that's NOT the protocol.

 

Pitchin Wins and RBI Hondo, that is what we should be looking at. Fuck those sabre dweebs, it's not like teams employ these dorks these days.

 

I loved the little tidbit in the story that Balfour's nickname is "Rage."

 

Now I really want the Rays to win the AL pennant. Notice how the walkoff hero is able to complete the postgame interview without a pie in the frace or a Gatorade bath all over Rachel Nichols?

 

I don't have a dog in the AL fight, but I will say that about half the Red Sox look like they're homeless, hopeless Aqua Velva drinking drunks with those ugly-ass beards. Jesus christ, what the fuck?

 

Braves just tied it 2-2 against Kershaw in the fourth, but I sense Yasiel Puig is about to hit an inside-the-park home run.
