PS, as a Giants fan, I am rooting for Brooks Conrad.

tarcone · 09-28-2011, 10:09 PM

Jeez. Hit a ground ball to the 2nd baseman. Braves are playing terrible

Hope it isn't over - you guys are my NL team to root for!

tarcone · 09-28-2011, 10:13 PM

Too bad its the last season for the Brewers. Losing Prince will be the end of that team.

I disagree completely - Prince is good, but he's a 1B. I expect the Brewers to be in contention next year with the Reds and Cardinals.

tarcone · 09-28-2011, 10:15 PM

game over if the Braves get that runner to 3rd. Bad baseball.

SirFozzie · 09-28-2011, 10:17 PM

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Young Drachma · 09-28-2011, 10:20 PM

So do the Rays just use the leftover goal horn for HRs when that was the Thunderdome for the Tampa Bay Lightning?

Crapshoot · 09-28-2011, 10:21 PM

Wow. Is there anything that hasn't happened in baseball today? An inside the park HR?

Crapshoot · 09-28-2011, 10:22 PM

DAMNIT! Damon hit one 15 feet foul!

Scoobz0202 · 09-28-2011, 10:25 PM

So if I'm rooting for the Orioles does that make me a terrible person? Should I be rooting for game 163 like a normal person?!

tarcone · 09-28-2011, 10:26 PM

1st and 3rd 2 outs. a base hit please.

RedKingGold · 09-28-2011, 10:27 PM

Good news Braves fans: David "The Human White Flag" Herndon is coming into pitch the bottom of the 13th. Good luck in the playoff tomorrow.

tarcone · 09-28-2011, 10:28 PM

EagleFan · 09-28-2011, 10:29 PM

With Martinez on deck you pitch to Pence?

Why are tonight's baseball games so compelling? Because they're playing for something that has meaning & have been building to this for wks.

That's pure genius.

You give Gonzalez too much credit by saying he has a strategy.

EagleFan · 09-28-2011, 10:33 PM

Ugh, Herndon in to close it?

Easy Mac · 09-28-2011, 10:35 PM

Pretty sure the Braves could have figured out a way to get no hit by Brett Myers tonight if that situation had somehow arose.

tarcone · 09-28-2011, 10:35 PM

Braves look defeated.

Easy Mac · 09-28-2011, 10:38 PM

Fredi looks confused as shit every time they pan to him.

RedKingGold · 09-28-2011, 10:38 PM

With Herndon pitching, it's not over until the Phillies have four outs.

tarcone · 09-28-2011, 10:39 PM

He throws a wicked 58 foot pitch.

EagleFan · 09-28-2011, 10:40 PM

He's trying to figure out how David Herndon is on a major league roster...

tarcone · 09-28-2011, 10:41 PM

CARDINALS WIN THE WC!!!!!!!!

EagleFan · 09-28-2011, 10:41 PM

Grats Cardinals fans

Jas_lov · 09-28-2011, 10:41 PM

Proctor is going to be Proctor'd tonight. He'll pitch until either his arm falls off or he loses the game, most likely loses the game. 1st and 2nd for the Rays, 1 out. Trainer coming out to look at Proctor.

RedKingGold · 09-28-2011, 10:41 PM

Well, if you can't beat David Herndon . . .

Thomkal · 09-28-2011, 10:43 PM

Woot Cards! Sorry you had to watch your team collapse like that Braves fans.

they just found where to use him, 13th inning closer (when no other options remain)...

Young Drachma · 09-28-2011, 10:43 PM

Do the yanks have no minor leaguers up? I guess not if they're almost out of guys.

RedKingGold · 09-28-2011, 10:43 PM

Still would've preferred to see Valdez.

spleen1015 · 09-28-2011, 10:44 PM

Sorry Braves' fans

Lathum · 09-28-2011, 10:44 PM

Anyone get the feeling Baltimore is going to tie things up?

Crapshoot · 09-28-2011, 10:45 PM

I'm sorry Braves fans.

PS - how the fuck is Tampa not winning yet against frigging Scott Proctor?

Most of their minor leaguers are in the game. Only regulars in now are Posada and Gardner. They've used all their minor league relievers and I guess the next pitcher will be Noesi as the Rays couldn't score against Proctor.

Fans on this board aside, I don't feel bad at all. This is a fan base that wouldn't sell out playoff games when they had some of the greatest players in the history of the game playing. Cards fans are far more deserving of a playoff team.

bhlloy · 09-28-2011, 10:48 PM

What does Joe Maddon have against the sac bunt? Leadoff guys on both innings and a run wins you the game.

Easy Mac · 09-28-2011, 10:49 PM

As a Braves fan, what emotion should I have, other than thank fucking God this shit is over. I've never seen a team collectively decide to stop hitting for entire stretches of games. Can you imagine being in the bullpen, knowing each night you have no margin for error?

bhlloy · 09-28-2011, 10:53 PM

And it looks like the Rays are about to blow it...

Young Drachma · 09-28-2011, 10:54 PM

Yup. No way the Rays can choke on this. I mean, c'mon guys. What's more deplorable is their lack of fans, but I guess we're used to that by now.

Crapshoot · 09-28-2011, 10:55 PM

Holy shit, Golson gets picked off 3rd! The Rays keep getting extra lives!

Yeah, it's OOTP comeback code right now.

What's the downside to stretching out Tampa's pen if you're the Yanks, though? You've got the 40-man roster to play with, keep throwing out dudes who'll never sniff October, and your starters are out, or mostly so, while Tampa is playing for their lives. You can afford an 18 inning game, win or lose. They can't.
