NFT: Game 6 - ALCS - Yankees vs Astros - 8p FS1

B in ALB : 10/20/2017 5:33 pm

Well here we are folks. If I told you at the beginning of the season we as fans would be in a position to watch our team one game away from playing in the World Series - would you believe me? I still don't really believe it NOW! It has been an absolute pleasure to watch this team and they have far exceeded even my wildest expectation.

Tonight we have Redemption Part II as the Yankees face a pitcher who has had excellent postseason success against them dating back to his early days with Detroit. Much like Keuchel the other night - he pitched absolutely lights out in Game 2 - and here is a chance to erase that memory and stamp their tickets to the World Series. If anyone can do it, it's our boys.

The. World. Fuckin. Series!

Unfortunately, my son has a football playoff game tonight and I will not be in my customary spot on the couch watching intently, sipping my voddy and beer, chatting with you fine people on BBI. HOWEVER, I will be bringing a bit of the good stuff with me and I will be streaming the game from the stands. Wouldn't miss this one! No way, no how. All hands on deck!

Can't wait.

LGY.

BigBlue4You09 : 10/20/2017 9:40 pm : link

Too bad the ump didn�t call those strikes balls like he should have

Cant walk guys

Marty866b : 10/20/2017 9:41 pm : link

In a game like this. Severino has pitched well but there is little bite on his slider.

Big trouble here.

bceagle05 : 10/20/2017 9:41 pm : link

Super dangerous spot here

illmatic : 10/20/2017 9:41 pm : link

for as evenly matched as it's been for five innings, this entire game can get away from them in a hurry right here.

Getting squeezed now

Greg from LI : 10/20/2017 9:41 pm : link

The Fox Box is driving me nuts...

Jim in Tampa : 10/20/2017 9:42 pm : link

Balls are strikes and strikes are balls.

Well that escalated quickly.

bceagle05 : 10/20/2017 9:42 pm : link

They're loaded

dpinzow : 10/20/2017 9:42 pm : link

3 walks in the inning

now, heres the tough question

yankeeslover : 10/20/2017 9:43 pm : link

do you tax the Pen tonight, or save it for tomorrow?

He's saving the pen for tomorrow. And I agree with him.

Might not be a bad decision if he is saving the pen for tomorrow. but what the heck do I know.

if you give up on a 1-0 game in the 5th inning of game 6, don't bother showing up for game 7

Hicks pops out to shallow center

dpinzow : 10/20/2017 9:45 pm : link

But Altuve up with the bases loaded and 2 out

Altuve up.

bceagle05 : 10/20/2017 9:45 pm : link

This might be the ballgame right here.

Shit

spike : 10/20/2017 9:45 pm : link

Altuve

I'd think about bringing in Green here

illmatic : 10/20/2017 9:45 pm : link

Altuve has had a few looks at Severino and while he hasn't looked good thus far, Sevy is not looking good right now.

BIG OUT

yankeeslover : 10/20/2017 9:45 pm : link

come on..lets get out of this.

you don't want to be a young team

GentleGiant : 10/20/2017 9:45 pm : link

with no momentum going into a game seven on the road

There's the damage

dpinzow : 10/20/2017 9:46 pm : link

Altuve 2 RBI single. Looking like a Game 7 the way Verlander is pitching

And there it is

illmatic : 10/20/2017 9:46 pm : link

Right after I hit submit, big mouth smashes an immediate hit off of Severino.

And that�s that�s probably the game

BigBlue4You09 : 10/20/2017 9:46 pm : link

Fuck

Thanks, Sevy.

Dave in Hoboken : 10/20/2017 9:46 pm : link

why was Frazier playing in?

GentleGiant : 10/20/2017 9:47 pm : link

there were 2 outs

Take him out already..

prdave73 : 10/20/2017 9:47 pm : link

wow.

Hey B

yankeeslover : 10/20/2017 9:47 pm : link

your kid goes to Shen? I went to school with Brian Clawson.. He was a couple years older then me... The assistant coach(Barry) his father, was my head coach in Highschool.

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck.

bceagle05 : 10/20/2017 9:47 pm : link

Severino

Marty866b : 10/20/2017 9:47 pm : link

His slider had no bite tonight. Nothing down and in.

if it wasn't for verlander I'd say still within reach..

micky : 10/20/2017 9:47 pm : link

but with him..looking like a game 7 now

We'll see just how mentally tough this team is

Dave in PA : 10/20/2017 9:48 pm : link

Been a great ride so far. They've come through when needed. Game 7 on the road is a really tough spot to be in, but honestly who else would you rather have than CC at this point?

c'mon folks

ImThatGuy : 10/20/2017 9:49 pm : link

sack up or take that negativity somewhere else, lot of baseball left

3 walks in an inning

GentleGiant : 10/20/2017 9:49 pm : link

and you have a rested dominant pen. Gotta think Joe Maddon is tearing his hair out watching Girardi manage this game.

It's the fifth fucking inning!

Greg from LI : 10/20/2017 9:49 pm : link

What a bunch of fucking pussies

Why do you always post stuff like this? It's silly. Yes thank you for the great season you've given us, Sevy, and battling hard tonight

The best part of all this

yankeeslover : 10/20/2017 9:49 pm : link

even though it will take a bit to get over if we lose this series, Is this was not expected yet and we will only get better... Win or lose this series this will be one hell of a confidence and learning booster for this young crew.

with that said

yankeeslover : 10/20/2017 9:50 pm : link

this game is NOT over.... sack up and lets go....

Yeah, clearly I'm not talking about the regular season, though. I'm talking about tonight. Why do you never understand that?

Sevy game the Yankees everything he had. Girardi has been going one batter too far with every pitcher this post season, got lucky a couple of times, not tonight.

Yeah

Natek212 : 10/20/2017 9:51 pm : link

fuck the yankees fans on this thread. Is this not the team that's come back from two 2-0 deficits and scored multiple late game runs?

Just a matter of time. Sevy had no fastball command and no

Jim in Hoboken : 10/20/2017 9:51 pm : link

slider tonight. Hopefully we didn�t get them out of their hitting funk tonight.

who the hell throws Altuve

GentleGiant : 10/20/2017 9:51 pm : link

anything to hit on the first pitch?

Inning over but damage done

dpinzow : 10/20/2017 9:51 pm : link

3 runs will be incredibly hard to get off Verlander. 1 run will be hard to get off him

Well that was a bummer.

bceagle05 : 10/20/2017 9:53 pm : link

Fucking sack up or go home

yankeeslover : 10/20/2017 9:53 pm : link

Man.. its only 3-0.....This game thread is just as bad as the Giants game thread... man the hell up.

Well fuck

mfsd : 10/20/2017 9:53 pm : link

Razor thin margin of error, and Altuve and the Stros got to us. Games not over, but even if we lose I love our chances tomorrow night

My Biggest Concern...

Jim in Tampa : 10/20/2017 9:53 pm : link

Verlander goes 9, while the Yanks blow out their bullpen.

Then in game 7 the Yanks' bullpen is spent, while the Astros' bullpen is rested.

lol

illmatic : 10/20/2017 9:54 pm : link

Every game thread, regardless of the sport, has people who will say it's all over the second their team is behind. It's nothing new. They aren't bad fans and they'll probably watch the rest of the game. Most of it is due to Verlander anyway. Relax.
