What an epic blown call... Not even close to a ball

 

[BUTCH1]

Bases loaded lucky for the Tigers Victorino's up, the only way he gets on base is getting hit by a pitch or a walk, pinch hit Nava for Christ's sake, he's a 300+ hitter

Grandslam!!!!

Ugh... Red Sox/Cardinals WS.. Yawn

Eat it. And props to the Flyin' Hawaiian.

Gladly! and on a nasty curve at that! he sure had perfect timing to come out of his funk!

Little things add up Tigers and Dodgers (Puig)..

Dat Tigers bullpen all full of choke artists

Now Leyland will use Phil Coke vs Ortiz /facepalm

Ain't over yet, Detroit's got some hitters and this IS Fenway after all. I'm wondering if any team has hit 2 grand slams in a series...

Looked like a great curveball, Victorino just went down and got it, that's all he threw him the whole AB was the curve, sometimes you can go to the well too often..

 

[Capt Caveman]

Red Sox to the WS!!!!

 

[Svnla]

Sox vs. Cards for WS. Good luck to both.

Go Cards.

Japan killed Detroit again and it wasn't Toyota

Funny thing is he's so far from the typical closer, fastball that tops at 90 but his control is amazing and then he throws that devastating splitter that's close to unhittable.

Epic post of the night goes to BUTCH. Wow, talk about crow.

Vic is one of my favs, I wish he was still on the Phils. KABOOM

Very similar to Trevor Hoffman IMO. Not a power pitcher. But has lights out disgustingly nasty stuff and amazing control.

Love that dirty water.

On another note:

is strikingly similar to

I'll eat that crow, dirty cleats and all. No one can ever question Vic's toughness, you knew he never made an attempt to avoid getting hit so many times, a 95MPH fastball to the ribcage can't be much fun, I was just expressing the frustration with his 2/20 for the series to that point and was wondering why Ferrel hadn't given Nava a chance, he is a great hitter and was the only one who managed solid contact against Scherzer in the first game.

I'm sick of the Cardinals and as a Mets fan I hate the Yanks so...go Sawx!

 

[Jeffg010]

If it was not for A.J. Burnett it be the Pirates in the WS. Now we are hearing he is all mad because he got passed up to pitch that 5th game. He got more losses then wins in the post season. He is not as good as he think he is.

I hate both teams so I can't even get into this WS.

Ugh... /unsubscribe

That's...what I said. It's hypocritical to root within the current rules, even if you don't like the rule? Uh, no.

Looks like your internal conflict will go away after the WS.

When asked about the topic after Game 5, Detroit Tigers manager Jim Leyland became the latest to say that he is in favor of change, and that he believes there will be change. Leyland is one of the 14 members of commissioner Bud Selig's advisory committee.

LMFAO Fielder

DETROIT -- Jim Leyland won't return as manager of the Detroit Tigers next season, a decision he made on his own in September, when he met with Dave Dombrowski and told the team's general manager "it was time," Leyland said Monday morning during a news conference.

Cool. It's been inevitable since Posey happened, imo, but the sooner the better.

Sucks about Leyland. Didn't always love his tactical decisions, but he was great overall. Sucks we couldn't win one with him. I've never known another manager except during the dark days, so I'm a little anxious.
