Boon 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2008 The playoffs just don't seem the same without TSM's usual cock waving fest between Yankee fans and Red Sox fans. I do love me a pitcher's duel though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmy no nose 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2008 I only saw it once and didn't catch a replay, but it definitely looked like Jason Bay had a shot at Torii Hunter's RBI single that broke the tie there. I guess he was trying to make sure the ball didn't get past him, but I thought he definitely could've kept running and gotten closer to the ball to make a play. It wasn't particularly hard hit so it wasn't going to take off and turn into extra bases. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheech Tremendous 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2008 Lester's pitching a hell of a game so far. Lackey too, for that matter. Edit: Here comes the Manny/Bay talk. Ugh I was just messing around. No need for any Manny debate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bored 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2008 I do wonder what exactly is the demographic that TBS & MLB is aiming for with the Bon Jovi cross promotion. Are there casual fans really tuning in just to see Bon Jovi highlight packages? Also anyone know what's the story behind the new MLB logo for the postseason? What is that, puke green?

Cheech Tremendous 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2008 I thought they put Matthews in to be a defensive boost over Vlad. That was awful. I don't know how he rates in right, but Matthews was one of the worst defensive centerfielders in baseball. The reputation doesn't match the performance. Martinez made it sound like he lost it in the lights. I'm not so sure about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
naiwf 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2008 It looked like he charged in and then realized it was hit harder and higher than he thought initially and he simply overran it. Big Papi didn't deliver though, so that error didn't change anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Smues Report post Posted October 2, 2008 I like how in that one Frank TV ad they say "ALL NEW CHARACTERS" then show him doing the movie Misery, which is pretty old. (20 years?) And I distinctly remember TBS telling me their was only one October last year, so how is that that I'm experiencing October again right now? I'm so confused!

KingPK 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2008 (edited) That was the worst baserunning blunder since Jeff Suppan in '04. Guerrero wasn't even at second when the ball dropped. EDIT: It's sad that Varitek's only reliable offensive contribution nowadays is a sacrifice. EDIT 2: There's insurance that doesn't need a bailout (hey, it's late).

strummer 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2008 Vladdy continuing to show why he's A-Rod West. He's got nothing on Chone Figgins who coming into tonight was putting up a career .167/.203/.258 career postseason line. But he's fast and pressures the defense into mistakes!

RepoMan 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2008 These playoffs suck already. If the Rays loose tomorrow, the playoffs will be close to a perfect shit storm for my rooting interests. I’m slightly in favor of the Phils over the Brewers, but only because of I want the TSM bowl and I slightly like the Phils because I’m a Flyers fan and like the total assholery of Philly fans. Otherwise I’m inclined to root for a Mid-West team that hasn’t been in the playoffs in forever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
