MLB 2011 Post-Season: Who misses the NBA?

Re: MLB 2011 Post-Season: Who misses the NBA?

btw Buck was always a hack, but way to ripoff the 1991 Game 6 sendoff you jerkoff.

Well, wasn't it his dad who made that call? I mean, there's really only three options:

1. he wins it for the cardinals
2. there will be a game 7
3. we'll see you tomorrow night

Fuck the cardinals...that is all

I don't know how you pulled that off...but I agree.

I hope that tonight, Torii Hunter calls Nelson Cruz and says, "The next time you have a chance to make a catch that will win the flipping World Series, go ahead and crash into that wall and make the catch. Even if you break your arm, the season's over, man! And you'll be a hero for all time. For All. Time. Crash that wall!"

2 run lead. 7-8-9 hitters coming up. Even LaTroy Hawkins could have closed that one out.

I think I heard even Manny Ramierez say Cruz gave up on that ball...

Except he's never been anywhere close to his father and he uttered this statement with no soul whatsoever. Joe Buck is an automoton that has no business being in his position. I'd sooner listen to Tim McCarver talk about the 1991 Braves for 3 straight days than listen to Buck read the specials from Red Lobster.

I still want Texas to win.
 
Re: MLB 2011 Post-Season: Who misses the NBA?

Why the eff didn't he go to home on that grounder to 3rd? I understand conventional wisdom, but I'm smarter than that. My first thought as soon as I saw him throw was, "Now the tying run is in scoring position".

Oh yeah, and Cruz has sweet alligator arms.

Was on the phone with a friend when that play happened and I said the exact same thing. You got a two run lead in the 9th inning and you make any kind of a thrown and that runner is out by 5 feet. "Conventional wisdom" is going to cost the Rangers the series. They need about a 3 day rain delay before they play game 7 because that's how long the hangover from this one lasts. To gack away 3 leads like that from the 7th inning on might not just carry over through game 7. They might not be over this one until next July.

Cards by a dozen tomorrow. If it was a little league game it would be over by the 2nd via 10 run rule. Mark my words. And God I hope I'm I couldn't be more wrong.

While it's true that Joe will never be anywhere near his father, it's darn near impossible to match Jack Buck. That man was the life of Cardinals baseball for years. I only wish they could get Mike Shannon on the TV broadcasts.

There's not an injury you stop yourself from catching the ball. I'm sorry, but this is greatness forever. A ring forever. Baseball History. America's Pasttime. CATCH THAT ****ING BALL NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES! You have all of your life to heal if that's what it takes, you're still a champion. That was painful to watch. A guy doggin' it in World Series Game #6, FTW?! Wow.
 
Re: MLB 2011 Post-Season: Who misses the NBA?

I don't think I have ever seen one like this-not just speaking about this game-but the entire series. Thought this one would be boring but I have been watching baseball since the early 50's and I cannot recall seeing anything quite like this. No matter who wins tomorrow-and even if that game is a boring one sided affair-this was quite a series. Close pitching duels, late inning heroics, a 5 hit 3 home run game for Pujols, high scoring games, walk off home run-this series has just had it all.
 
Re: MLB 2011 Post-Season: Who misses the NBA?

That game was an absolute joke. Some of the worst baseball I have ever seen played. Sure it made for drama, but i'd rather see quality play.

Neither team deserves to win this series the way their defense has played.
 
Re: MLB 2011 Post-Season: Who misses the NBA?

I thought the No Doubles Defense in the 10th was disgusting. I turned to my friend and said that was a Prevent Defense type of play. Not trying to win, but trying not to lose. Awful, gutless.

Not saying regular depth would have mattered, but it might have made a play at the plate.
 
Re: MLB 2011 Post-Season: Who misses the NBA?

Everyone at Busch wanted the Cardinals to win, including the Rangers. Ugly game, but entertaining. Don't blow it tonight, Texas. Nolan Ryan is going to strangle each of you with his bare hands if that happens. AND SO WILL I.
 
Re: MLB 2011 Post-Season: Who misses the NBA?

Rumors that Napoli (ankle) and Cruz (pride?) may not play tonight due to injury.

That would certainly hurt the Rangers chances of winning.

I'd like to see Carpenter go on 3 days for the Cards. He wasn't good previously in that situation.
