  • Re: 2009 MLB Playoffs

    That throw was amazing. If it was cut off there's no chance they would have had him. They should have had no shot at the runner at all but he made it look close with an absolute cannon.

    Hats off to Hairston Jr. for making anything out of that.

      Can you believe the arrogance of Girardi going to Aceves in the 11th? He's such a tool. Glad that bit him in the ***.

          Oh for ****'s sake. I think the only way this baseball season could get any worse would be if MLB came up with some way for the Yankees and the Phillies to both win the World Series.

            It's like every closer in the league has displayed the yellow streak down his trousers at some point or another this month.

            Oh wait, not every closer.

                There's some impressively poor officiating going on tonight. Appears it won't matter since the Angels couldn't hit Sabathia with a tree trunk.

                    How does the third-base umpire make that call that Swisher left early? And by that I mean, forget how it was wrong, but how does he see both the runner's foot and the outfielder's glove at the same time? It's not like at first where the umpire can watch the glove and listen for the runner's foot, or vice versa.

                      I figure he finally realized he screwed that one up and decided to "cancel" it out with whatever the hell that was with two Yankees chilling out off of 3rd base.

                        Well they screwed up Swisher being picked off of second initially (called him safe, he was clearly out). Then made up for that by saying he left early from third on a sac fly attempt, the Angels challeneged it, called him out by tagging the base afterwards even though the third base umpire making the call wasn't even watching Swisher.

                        The play with Posada and Cano at third makes no sense at all, they should've both been out but I can sort of understand if he thought it was a play where both guys were standing on the base and the "lead" runner gets called out... Except both guys are off the base and were tagged.

                        Just stupid.

                          Top one: Andre Ethier makes it 1-0 Dodger's on a 1-2 fastball.

                          Bottom one: After retiring the first 2 Phillies, Padilla walks Chase Utley and then pitches around Ryan Howard. With the count 3-2 Jayson Werth crushes a fastball to right to make it 3-1 Phillies.

                            The Yankmees might have the O to match Philly. Will be interesting to see the pitching matchups. Yes, I've conceded LAD and LAA.

                              Top 2: Once again Cole gets ahead 1-2 and once again he throws a room service fastball. This time to James Loney who goes deep to make it 3-2 Phils.

                              Bottom 2: Lead off man Pedro Feliz takes the first pitch he sees to right to restore the Phillies 4-2 lead.

                              It's a warm night in Philly and the ball really seems to be flying off the bat. All 4 HR's hit tonight have been to right field.

                                Both pitchers go three up three down in the third. Score remains 4-2 Phillies.
