such a catch-able ball by the second baseman. He got spun around way to easily there

Aaaand they're still playing in the 12.

The Twins had two hitters bat in the 11th. Ive been waiting for the time the 3rd hitter due up doesn't get to bat! Walkoffwins excluded ldo.

Baseball is not dying (unlike football), but the unwritten rules need to die.

Michael Kay had Joe Torre on his radio show and Torre said Tatis was 100 percent wrong for swinging there lmao. He also said Don Zimmer who was his bench coach for 8 years would have completely disagreed with him and had no problem with it.

I'm still cheesed about Kevin Brown and the Pads shutting down a really ****ing good 1998 Astros team. Bagwell and Biggio were dogshit. I think as a freshman in HS I snuck out to listen to a day game on the radio in my sister's car, in the parking lot of the HS.

But I'm now rooting for a Stros Pads WS, equally as much as just ending the season today.

Side note Kevin Brown was robbed of his Cy Young in 98. Everybody would even take #4 in the votes, Maddux, with those stats over Glavine.

Kevin Brown was never smiley faced and buddy buddy with the beat writers though, that was his mistake.

I don't fault the writers too much for the 96 voting, but holy ****

233ip, .0944 WHIP, 215ERA+, 1.89era.

Smoltz had a hell of year too though, on a better team.

That was when writers largely voted on W-L.

Glavine was much worse than his own teammate, Maddux in 98, and Brown was better than both.

Has anyone actually thought cinci was a *** capital of the world? Other than Thom?

edit: I guess he was talking about somewhere else. What is the answer?

Get the idiots out of MLB. Swinging a bat 3-0 is not going off the backboard to yourself.

You've never heard of a Kansas City ***?

I think it's from Blazing Saddles.

It's not the correct answer regardless.

Went back to the Reds game and some other dude is on the call

Did he get ****-canned in the middle of the game?

edit: LOL he was forced to make an on-air apology, but paused to call a Castellanos homer, and then left the telecast
