Yep, at least '87 had some mitigating circumstances that made that collapse understandable.

This, this is just pathetic. Gibby's gonna be back to sitting in that rocking chair in Texas.

This game still haunts me.

I'm still not believing Ortiz is retiring until April 1, 2017 and he's not playing ball.

Pretty unreal fall by Toronto...on September 1st they were 76-57 and 2 games up in the ALE. Since that point, they are 11-15 and have gone from 2 up to 5 back...a 7 game swing.

I half expect him to come back next year especially if Boston doesn't win it all.

Nah, the Red Sox already have EE penciled in as their 2017 DH.

What you trying to do? Give me nightmares for the next 5-6 years?!

I work on the weekend, so tonight was the final Vin Scully game for me.

*Scully after Angel Pagan tackled a fan who ran onto the field and tried to give him a flower:*

"Doesn't that bring you back to the '60s and the flower children and ... what, you don't remember the '60s? OK."

That cracked me up. Local network here is simulcasting the Sportsnet LA feed (gee, how gracious of them) so I actually get the Dodgers games this weekend.

Here's video of the Pagan belly-to-belly suplex. LOL.

NL Wild Card Game contestants could be decided (minus HFA) by tonight. Mets beating Philly. Win and the Mets are in. St. Louis trailing PIT. The Giants could knock the Cards out with a win tonight assuming PIT holds on.

This is shaping up just as I hoped. Just need the Mets to win the WC game so the Cubs can go against that depleted rotation.

Michael Wacha is terrible. Remember when he was the next up and coming superstar pitcher?

Re: 9/19 - 10/2 Game Discussion Thread

Gyorko giving the birds some life, solo HR in the 8th gives them the lead.

And the Cards win. All eyes to SF-LA which is in the 2nd, scoreless.

Giants up 3-0 in the 7th as Kershaw commits a throwing error that leads to 2 runs.

Re: 9/19 - 10/2 Game Discussion Thread

Yankees, down 3-0 at one point,now up 7-3 vs the O's right now


Come on Jays, I know Toronto loves to crush their fans hopes in more brutal ways than one can imagine, but for once, capitalize on this opportunity!
