I usually just listen to what the announcers say.

 

Thats of course until an outfielder looks like he's under the ball.

Well, I would fire Kyle as soon as his ass reached the dugout

It's not his fault Pat Borders' dumb ass tried to backhand a ball in the dirt.

The Goats:

 

Nathan and Borders.

 

The Twins are a greta team, they surprised the hell out of me. They deserve all fo the credit in the world.

I think the guy just needs to learn to read the ball off the bat better

I can't read the ball off the bat, never have been able to.

 

I started following fielders relatively recently.

So I guess we'll just ignore Juan Rincon, who gave up four runs, which wound up making all the difference?

I'm guessing he meant Rincon over Nathan

No they don't. This was exactly like last season and the seasons before ALCS. Win Game 1, lose 3 strait and 4 strait games.

 

Rincon flat out blew it. Ruben Sierra can't hit a 94 mph fastball, instead Juan throws a hanging slider. That, and the fact they couldn't score off the dominate Esteban Loaiza. Stupid, stupid team after they blew the game all tried to hit the big Home Run. Guess what, it doesn't work against Rivera. He doesn't give up homers.

The Metrodome used to be a huge home-field advantage for the Twins (and having attended a Twins game, it's easy to see why)

 

But they haven't won a postseason game there since the '02 ALCS game 1...

Ruben's a dead fastball hitter.

The fact that Pat Borders was even on the Twins roster should give you a good indication of how well equipped they were for the playoffs. I cringe to think of how differently the series would have gone with Joe Mauer in there.

 

This one sucked. From the phantom tag on Jacque Jones, to Rincon's meltdown...this one was just depressing.

 

But hey, "America asked for it - Yankees/Red Sox", as the wonderful people at Fox said roughly 100 times.

Of course they did. What the hell is the appeal in Twins/Angels?
