2020 MLB postseason thread

That's baseball. Last outing, Graterol looked like the greatest pitcher of all time. He was hitting corners with 100 mph gas. Last night, not so much. If Wilson pitches again, he might get his ass handed to him, too.

 

Also begs the question, how much of this is on Roberts? Monday morning quarterbacking, for sure, but we've seen this movie so many times. Kershaw left in too long, Roberts with a quick hook, etc.

 

As I noted upthread, Kershaw has only been left in too long three times in 34 career postseason starts.

 

So is Houston going to be the second team to overcome a 3-0 deficit?

 

I'm sure many would say that would be a perfect 2020 moment.

 

What the hell was Ozuna doing?? It’s not that hard, tag up after the catch (or bounce) you’re safe either way. Why dance away?? That was a momentum killer.

 

Most blatant example ever of a runner leaving early on a tag up play. And the umpire missed it. The Dodgers appealed and it was denied before the video review.

 

And Joe Buck making an excuse for him that he may have had too many players in front of him obstructing his view. Bullshit.

They have a third base coach for a reason. That was totally inexcusable.

 

Watching it live first thing I thought of was he had to have left early to be that safe. As I recall they showed the angle behind the third-base coach and there didn't seem to be much in the line of sight of Ozuna or the third base coach.

 

The fielding answer to flinging your bat up in the air on a home run.
