That's one way for a baseball game to end.
10.10.2025 01:40 β π 4 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Itβs odd that the game in LA started in the middle of the afternoon there, and the game in Chicago isnβt starting until 8:00 there, when they could easily have had each game start at 6:00 or 7:00 local time.
10.10.2025 00:59 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0If a four-pitch walk being worth two bases instead of one feels tortured, I imagine walks just arenβt something you view as a problem (which is fine, reasonable people can disagree).
10.10.2025 00:47 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I think a four-pitch walk could be two bases, or could be declined, and then if a second walk is drawn, THAT counts for two bases.
That would include unintentional four-pitch walks too, unavoidably, but Iβd be okay with that. Throw strikes or pay the price.
Thatβs what the cowards get for not pitching to Ohtani.

09.10.2025 04:17 β π 16 π 3 π¬ 0 π 0With two more rainbows tonight, Clayton Kershaw tied the MLB record for most career postseason home runs allowed.
t1. Kershaw & Justin Verlander 32
3. Andy Pettitte 31
t4. Tom Glavine & Catfish Hunter 21
In the final month of his career, itβs nice to see Kershaw turn back the clock and pitch poorly in the postseason like he did when he was young.

09.10.2025 00:28 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Yeah, expecting it is sort of what I meant about being prepared on an intellectual level.
For me, with the Guardians, I always expect it, but find that it feels miserable anyway.
I feel for Mariners fans. I assume they were very prepared for this on an intellectual level, but that doesnβt actually help with the sting very much.
