Replay of 2002 (reversing ALCS/ALDS order, of course), plz?

― boring movies are the most boring (Eric H.), Monday, 12 October 2009 03:12 (fifteen years ago)

so far the division series have taught me to not vote for what i want, so yankees in 6

― extremely demanding on the hardware (ciderpress), Monday, 12 October 2009 03:16 (fifteen years ago)

I pretty much root in reverse correlation to team salaries. Go Angels, fuck you US Steel

― I got RIPPED in 4 weeks (Z S), Monday, 12 October 2009 03:19 (fifteen years ago)

Angels in six

― Andy K, Monday, 12 October 2009 06:52 (fifteen years ago)

after this div series i am confronted with that familiar feeling of having my enemies subtly transformed into heroes - where aybar and abreu once struck fear into my heart now they can do no wrong. it's sort of like when the bucks would beat the celtics in the 80s.

on the other hand it might be as simple as that old new england t-shirt that reads "i have two favorite teams: the red sox and whoever's playing the yankees"

― Tracer Hand, Monday, 12 October 2009 11:07 (fifteen years ago)

i have to admit the angels are very, very entertaining. it starts with torii hunter but keeps on going with aybar and chone figgins. these guys get FIRED UP.

an LAD-LAA series would be so sweet, for so many reasons. can you guys imagine abreu and manny going head to head?? there's something so similar about their brand of laid-back danger. abreu gets to the plate and always looks like he's just thought of something wry and funny.

This series will be a classic. I have a good feeling about this.

― NoTimeBeforeTime, Monday, 12 October 2009 15:04 (fifteen years ago)

I remember this series being really exciting at the time:

http://www.baseball-reference.com/postseason/2005_ALDS2.shtml

Kind of amusing that the Yanks pitching staff has turned over completely since then, with the exception of Rivera.

― NoTimeBeforeTime, Monday, 12 October 2009 15:07 (fifteen years ago)

Yankees in 6

not exactly wishful when the season's series was 5-5 in addition to most of us loathing the Empire.

high temp in NYC tomw is 44, with "occasional showers" in the evening after 2 days of rain

― Your Favorite Saturday Night Thing (Dr Morbius), Friday, 16 October 2009 03:13 (fifteen years ago)

Ronan Tynan, the Irish tenor who often sings (a very, very long version of) 'God Bless America' during the seventh-inning stretch at Yankee Stadium, will not appear tonight after it was reported that he made an anti-Semitic joke to a potential tenant in his Manhattan apartment building.

― mookieproof, Friday, 16 October 2009 18:07 (fifteen years ago)

amyknelson:
correction on Rivera note: last time prior to tonight he had allowed postseason earned run at home was 0/22/2000 (game 2 of world series)

that covers 24 straight appearances
