The whole thing, but...

Hey, baseball is the primary religion in Our Town. Out here it’s a place to be seen, maybe flash some gang signs on the matrix and bat a beach ball.

*facepalm*

oh god make the whole thing go away, i just want to watch the games

I've seen beachballs in the crowd at Fenway, no lie.

Bos-LA would provide dreaded Wilson v Napoli beardo showdown.

Koreans are super excited about the prospect of a game 7. Caption is something like 'Greinke passes the bomb to Kershaw. Can Ryu turn it into fireworks'

just saw the thing about shelby miller

his K% this season

March/April: 27%
May: 26%
June: 27%
July: 24%
August: 23%
Sept/Oct: 12%

he's probably just burned way the fuck out. that said if i was the cards i'd consider maybe not letting joe kelly start a game the rest of the playoffs.

he admitted he was fatigued in september, ppl forget that part. (mujica admitted the same and yet...)

I was convinced Miller was a shoe in for ROY because of all the winzzzzzz. He done fell off.

Puig and Ryu have strong cases too but I assume the rookie from Miami will win it.

fernandez is the easy winner and puig is the only one in his league

i voted JF-Puig-Miller

No Hanley in the Dodgers lineup today. Might be better off with Punto at this point but the Dodger record without Hanley is abysmal.

had to peel back the layers of twitpic to get the link. nice of adrian and yasiel to play along with the stl fans.

go dodgerssssssssss!

hanley back in ?_?

yes

Wish he'd try a liiiiiitle harder

@AdamKilgoreWP
I hope the Dodgers, if they win Game 7, hop on some Clydesdales and race them around the warning track. While drinking craft beer.

That was funny. If the umpire had called that a ball, Puig would have looked silly in a way completely opposite to how it usually happens.

OK, what stream doesn't suck tonight?

dunno what is your standard for online illegal streaming, but the first link from streamhunter.eu is ok to me (british advertising otoh)

the best is when you get feeds from weird foreign places where they dont cut to commercial instead you get a shot of the court w audio of the announcers shooting the shit and talking to the producers and so forth

i have cable now tho

I've been getting good quality streams throughout the playoffs.

Kershaw getting rolled.

Sutcliffe is ripping on Puig nonstop for the offbalance throw that allowed Beltran to take second on his hit.

is there a lamer major leaguer than matt adams? dude looks like a douchebag bouncer

Was just going to say--if the Cardinals win, Sutcliffe will still be going on about that throw in the 9th inning. It was a sloppy play, but it wasn't all that noteworthy (and the batter after Molina got a hit anyway).

wow kersh got hosed on that AB

love to see the dodgers unravel like that, love it.

Nice throw rookie

That's it, Puig--you're the villain. ("Playing way too emotionally...")

Wow, those live mics. Never knew that "Fuckin' horseshit" screamed from the dugout wasn't enough to get a manger kicked out.

"manager"...sorry, Jesus.

fix is in for Team Clydesdale

On the radio they speak of
Earned runs and errant throws

Long shot of magic johnson's face

All streams hiccup and freeze on me, but I assume that's just cuz I don't understand my laptop.

That was what my dad always automatically said whenever his team was losing: "the fix is in." I think he believed it, too.

No excuse for airmailing the throw to home, although it didn't lead to a run.

I almost feel like they should have pinch hit for Wacha there and tried to really stick the dagger in.

Kershaw threw more pitches in the third (48) than in any inning in his career.

Morbs the bootleg stream on lemonparty.org isnt feezing at all. plus HD if option if you want.

one good play in LF. one bad one.

Grant Brisbee ‏@mccoveychron
Puig's decisions on when to make crazy throws and such are like a three-minute accordion solo in the middle of OK Computer.

No idea why Kershaw is still in there. He hasn't been right since the third.

I am wastered

Want to research post-season meltdowns by great starting pitchers, but I'm sure someone will have a full list up tomorrow.

RF

The second basemen regretted his throw to home mid-throw - hilarious slowmo replay

i'm a little tipsy myself.

xpost - ya - loved the head drop immediately following the throw! dodgers looking like real crud out there.
