Killshot

wolverine

The hometown team tries to advance to the Whirled Serious for the second year in a row while the Gashouse Gorilla Blue Jays look to push this to a one-game-winner-take-all tomorrow.

I’m going for the Royals.

Let’s Go Base-ball!

10 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 9:39 pm

awesome!

3-1

rios having himself a good series. he's another guy i've kinda always dug and rooted for. has a decent power-speed combo.

11 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Oct 23, 2015 9:43 pm

I hate that shit where they refer to "defensive outs" as in "six defensive outs away..."

When did they start saying that stupid shit?

12 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 9:45 pm

ryan madson to face the top of the order 'coz it's the 8th.

wade davis should be in. stoopid save rule...

13 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 9:47 pm

great. leadoff man on.

why leave your best reliever in the pen? bring him in when there's trouble on the basepaths? how about bringing him in to PREVENT that from happening??? so, someone else gets the "save" - who fucking cares?!

14 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 9:49 pm

YES!

siddown.

now, get Brats to hit into a harmless double play.

15 rbj   ~  Oct 23, 2015 9:49 pm

One down, five to go.

16 rbj   ~  Oct 23, 2015 9:50 pm

Fuck.

17 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 9:50 pm

motherfucker.

goddamn it. FUCK that fucking FUCK.

why wasn't the best pitcher in to face the best hitter??????????

18 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Oct 23, 2015 9:53 pm

I hate him so much.

19 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 9:54 pm

davis should've started the 8th...

20 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 9:58 pm

davis rusty. has barely pitched...

21 rbj   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:00 pm

Get a run

22 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:01 pm

alright. get the lead and win now.

fuck you, yost! idiot.

23 rbj   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:04 pm

Bllagh. Night all.

24 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:05 pm

you've gotta be kidding me!

wow. fuck you, yost and madson.

25 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:28 pm

pete rose is brutal on tv.

a-rod is, of course, charming.

26 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:34 pm

Alex looks so relaxed and happy doing this broadcast.

It's really nice to see.

27 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:35 pm

[25] Right???

28 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:36 pm

[26] i agree. he also looks quite dapper and healthy.

he and the big hurt are pretty frickin' huge people.

29 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:39 pm

hahaha!

They are.

30 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:50 pm

good start. nice a-b by cain.

works an 8-pitch walk. speed on base.

31 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:53 pm

WOWWW!!!!

HOLY FUCK, HE SCORED!

32 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:54 pm

FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!

that was *fast*! long single for hosmer. tested Brats' arm, which i thought was foolish with 0 outs, but he was off balanced and has a bad ankle and there's a wet field. it worked.

score more!

33 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:55 pm

another hit!

keep 'em comin'!!!

34 Ara Just Fair   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:56 pm

Good. Suck it, blue jays.

35 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:58 pm

damn. unproductive out. i was hoping he'd walk the bases loaded.

took 21 pitches to get the first out.

more runs!

36 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 10:59 pm

i wish hosmer took 2nd on his hit...

37 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:00 pm

oh, crap.

1-run game. bottom of the lineup coming up. need a 1-2-3.

wade davis has been sitting for an entire hour...

38 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:00 pm

That was the most incredible run I think I've ever seen scored.

39 knuckles   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:01 pm

Can't stand either of these teams but much prefer KC over the Jays.
I almost shudder to say this but I'm rooting for a Mets sweep.

40 Ara Just Fair   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:04 pm

Of course. Goddammit, Martin.

41 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:04 pm

of course.

so, coltrane gets his first hit of the series on the first pitch. pinch runner.

it's never easy...

42 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:04 pm

stolen base. FUCK!

43 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:05 pm

God, that was ballsy.

44 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:06 pm

if this goes on, kendrys is (foolishly) outta the game. another shitty move by yost...

45 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:08 pm

oh, fuck.

that was a total clusterfuck.

46 Ara Just Fair   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:08 pm

This is not good.

47 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:09 pm

That was a strike!

48 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:09 pm

what a bunch o' bollocks.

if KC loses tonight, there's no way they're winning tomorrow...

49 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:09 pm

[47] i thought so too.

50 Ara Just Fair   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:10 pm

63 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:20 pm

[61] yeah, that's right. '85 / '86.

beginning in '73, the Muts went 13 years, then 14 years, now 15 years between WS appearances. i guess they're next time will be in 2031...

64 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:22 pm

65 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:23 pm

This is all so exciting, isn't it?

[61] Indeed.

66 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:25 pm

it's gonna be a really good Whirled Serious.

67 thelarmis   ~  Oct 23, 2015 11:26 pm
