It’s Matt Harvey, the so-called Dark Knight with the season on the line in Game 5 tonight in Queens.
The fans have been great at Citi Field. Last game home game of the season, be beautiful to end it on a high note.
Volquez on the hill for the Royals and it’s hard not to root for him after his father’s death. Whole lot on the table…
Let’s Go Base-ball!
Drawing by the great Frank Miller.
Extend it to Wednesday, cause after that, no games until March. Over a hundred days.
And rip Fred Thompson. Leaving politics aside, I enjoyed his acting.
Grandyman can!
I can't watch Tuesday or Wednesday, so I'm hoping to see a celebration tonight.
NHK doesn't have commercials, so during the break we were treated to clips from the '69 WS and of course "The Buckner Game." The clips from '69 were really cool. Seaver sloshing champagne all over the place. Ticker-tape parade in Manhattan.
Harvey pretty good early.
happy for grandy.
let's go Cain!
[5] Thats an understatement.
[5] Yes Harvey is on. Now, how about some fucking runs, man!
[Note: I mistakenly put this comment in the previous thread]
Come on, Cespedes! Bring back Ed Ces[Krane]pool.
wow. how was that NOT a strike?
damn. hey, i don't like harvey and i'm rooting for the royals, but that was a pretty shitty call.
Dang, Bat Harvey is filthy tonight
Every time the ball gets hit toward Murphy, I hold my breath.
Ouchie. Does not look good.
Man, that looks so fucking painful.
Remember when it happened to Jermaine Dye?
Standing on it, but take him out of the game. Hmm . . .
good job by edinson to get out of it with only 1 run.
royals down by 2 headed to the last third of the game - just how they want it!
[14] Dang. A similar kind of "ouchie" ended Tex's season this year.
Could Harvey Go. All. The. Way?
Unfamiliar territory...
holy crap, harvey's still in. i imagine his leash is very short...
wow. i'm not shocked in the slightest. couldn't believe the dark diva was headed out for the 9th.
Ungood.
You can't make this stuff up.
I have a bad feeling about this.
[22] Doubleplus ungood.
holy FUCK!!!
what an idiot for going, but duda sucks at fielding. and wow. just WOW!!!
The Royals forced the action.
They deserve to win.
Ha. Good.
Giambi used to throw like that.
Collins is toast.
joe fuck keeps talking about football. asshole.
Man, talk about execution.
What a fundamentally sound baseball team these Kansas Cities are.
Fuck.
wow!!!!
dude's first a-b of the postseason and he comes thru.
3-2 KC!
alicdes gets a hit every game. every game!
These fuckers are like the 2002 Angels.
it's just unbelievable to watch.
first pitch by The Tolo, bases clearing double. good IBB, TC!
5 runs in the 12th (so far). should be plenty for Wade Davis.
[33] Amazing, right?
[35] well, these guys are quite likable. fuck those halos!
[37] it really is. turns out, that dude was the 4th overall pick in his draft - 3 picks higher than harvey!
Well I guess Collins is going to get raked over the coals or something else not pleasant.
i still can't believe harvey went out for the 9th. after doing so, i figured he'd be pulled immediately if he got in trouble. a leadoff walk should be considered trouble. nope. ridiculous...
Suppose I told you six weeks ago Matt Harvey would lose Mets fans by wanting the ball too much.
muts have only mustered 3 hits this entire game. THREE!!!
Mets need a handful of Buckners right about now.
Time to start lookin' out the window and thinkin' about spring. Night all.
Congrats, KC!
You certainly deserve it. Really fun team to watch.
