Your eyes didn't deceive you -- Game 7 really did have the most wild swings all time Game 7 of the 2025 World Series was one of the wildest, and to some extent that’s expressed as easily as β€œa deciding World Series game went to extra innings,” which had happened just twice before in b...

Wrote about how Game 7 not only had two of the five most impactful plays in history, it also had..

- the most impactful out ever
- 3 of the top dozen plays ever
- the most plays that swung championship WPA by at least 15% of any game ever (9)

Magic Johnson dropping some knowledge about winning in the postgame. What a legend.

Unbelievable. On to the 14th.

Now batting for the Blue Jays: Chone Figgins, Terrance Gore, and Billy Hamilton.

And to think that was the perfect time for Andy Pages to do what he’s done all postseason - hit a fly out to the CF.

DAVE ROBERTS MASTERCLASS ALERT: pay attention kids this is how you do it. You bring in your soon to be retired pitcher, who is terrible in the postseason, with the bases loaded

No game has ever had as much baserunning as this game. They are running from base to base, folks, and that’s where things are getting tricky.

Too bad they pinch ran for Barger earlier with Straw. Why not just forfeit at this point with this weak remainder of a lineup?

Notice that Robert’s didn’t even consider running for Will Smith last inning when he was the winning run on 2nd base.

Too much pinch running. This is foolhardy.

This game is over. Why not bring in Lauer?

Oh and maybe also showing the manager walking to the mound to take the pitcher out, rather than a 20 second crowd shot followed by the pitcher we didn’t know was warming running onto the field.

I don’t ask for much. It’s the little things.

My humble request to Fox to resume the time-honored tradition of showing pitchers warming up in the bullpen literally anytime prior to when they are being brought into the game.

Postseason pinch-hit grand slams:

2025 WS G1 Addison Barger
2016 NLCS G1 Miguel Montero
1999 ALCS G4 Ricky Ledee
1995 NLDS G3 Mark Lewis

All but Ledee’s were against the Dodgers

Ok, Mariners fans. Every time they have a Big Game, it seems like someone else comes through to be the hero of the day. Who do we think it's going to be tonight? I'm thinking Leo Rivas is about due again. Or Cal hitting 62 would be classic. Naylz has been a one-man show lately. Who will be the hero?

The Brewers haven't stolen any bases in four postseason games. They went four games in a row without a steal only once during the regular season.
