this fuckhead with the low strikes..

[elfenix 34161]

That was fucking horrible blue

[oh_snap 692]

Two different zones

[tx 3 putt 75959]

[Guadaloopy 10890]

Well the umps have decided it’s over.  

[Lat22 3974]

Through 5. 52 pitches.

Oh, there are words.

I don’t think it will be, but losing fully rested Urquidy for tonight for one inning in G5 should be hyperanalyzed as much as pulling Greinke in 2019 G7. Just an indefensible decision.

Had Bregman swung at that shin-high pitch and missed it, Joe would have been saying what a terrible decision he made to flail at an obvious ball 4.

It's 6-0.

0

As in 0 runs.

As in we could have pitched Nolan Ryan in his prime tonight and it wouldn't matter.

0.

last game of the season, can't hold anything back.

Way to go.

Bumper music on radio is “Don’t Stop Believin’”

I’m trying real hard…

[TexArcher 37414]

Well, at least we're almost done hearing about Ozzie Albies' historic stolen base that won everybody a taco.  I can't believe nobody ever stole a base in like 120 years of World Serieses.

I think we only have 2 doubles. All I remember is Tucker and Bregman hitting doubles. There is probably 1 I’m missing. When you have 5 extra base hits and your starters can’t get through 4 innings, you should be done in 4-5 games.

Going into this game, they had 7 doubles to our 7 doubles and 1 triple. The difference is the 8 hrs to our 2.

They do it every year. Maybin did it for us.

Atanta pitches a lot different and with a whole lot more pressure if up only 1-0, or even 2-0.

I remember a chick named Brandy who Dit It For Me.

 

Se what I did there?

[runthebone 7913]

Before the end of this game, I would put Stanek in to nail Joc.

[tx 3 putt 75959]

Rally time boys. I’m turning off the game and giving my lesbian friend 100% of my ‘attention’

hopefully we can score 10 runs In 5 minutes or so

10 to 2 actually. Domination.

It’s just marketing bullshit.  Don’t let that get to you. Let the fact that we ran out of pitching and our bats choked get to you.  That’s what I’m doing.

If our bats were decent, we're not even watching baseball tonight.

They fucked up in 2019 at home in WS. What goes thru their heads tonight? Why not redeem yourselves?? Do yall want to win?? Stupid  questions but play like a gah damn champion.

This is possibly true.  Extremely frustrating 

[beer 3213]

Should have swung at the first pitch this time

[Guadaloopy 10890]

Yep. Blue is pissed he had to fly to Houston.

No home team won a game.  What a fucked up series. That Astros team was fucking sick.  

[TOR 5354]

Letting fried go this deep is just humliating.

Awesome. Now we can start to rank which World Series loss stings the worst.

Soler went deeper.

dammit

[TexArcher 37414]

This doesn't hurt as bad as 2019.  That was a historically great team that didn't get it done.

‘19 no question.   ‘05 next for the sweep.  This one sucks, but it’s been a fun run.  

[Tommy Nobis 905]

19 hurts me more. We had 2 shots to win it at home. I would have taken a sweep loss this series to win in 19.

I blame Uncle Mike for not stomping harder. 
 

I also expect the braves to announce fried’s ankle has a hairline fracture after the game so they can fellate him in the anals (sic) of history

[DaysOff 7785]

19 hurts me more. We had 2 shots to win it at home. I’d would have taken a sweep loss this series to win in 19.

I'll never get over 2019. This year, meh.

I would like to throw out NLCS painful losses, just because.

Same here.  We had our aces in 2019. 
 

We choke vs the hot teams like a tampa, washington, braves.
