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.

But, let's not exaggerate  
Matt M. : 10/20/2017 10:41 pm : link
I'm reading a foot outside, more than 6 inches. Come on. It was 100% off the plate, but certainlky not more than 6 inches.
That pitch just called a ball for Green?  
Greg from LI : 10/20/2017 10:41 pm : link
Yeah, that was a much better pitch than strike 2 to Hicks

That's 3 games against Kuechel and Verlander. It has nothing to do with the park.

These are supposed to be professional umpires. It might as well be a fucking mile if that's a strike.

they are putting fear into Houston. This is good, moral victories are good if you lose game 6.


Fear by scoring no runs? And two in 3 games in Houston?
who is he going to  
GentleGiant : 10/20/2017 10:44 pm : link
Dembrowski, Peacock or Giles?
It's why the Fox Box is legit  
DennyInDenville : 10/20/2017 10:44 pm : link
Exposes these fraud umps.. bring on the robots

That pitch to hicks was ridiculous.:

We can hit their bullpen, JV is DONE; I dare them to bring him back out..

If not... saddle up and let's do this CC.

Later squad I gotta start some travel , believe me.. if the Yankees win the ALCS we will win the WS! Enjoy the rest of the run, might pop back in later or tomorrow if not then couple weeks talk to y'all for hot stove..

Green is done for game 7 it appears. Glad Girardi is working him extra hard like it's allin for him tonight and that's it
Six outs to play with.

Peacock to go 2 innings, because if he lost faith in Dembrowski, he's lost faith in Giles as well

Safe travels Denny. Get back for the parade.
he was their best

pitcher outside of Keuchel for a stretch this season
I really don’t have too much dislike for the Astros players  
mfsd : 10/20/2017 10:47 pm : link
varies between respect/admiration for some of their best guys, indifference for the others.

But I think Josh Reddick is a little cunt bitch and I’m so happy he’s sucking so much ass in this series.
Verlander out of there

Should've been a 3-0 count.
1 out

Marwin Gonzalez makes a catch in foul territory against the wall
another at bat  
MookGiants : 10/20/2017 10:49 pm : link
completely fucked by the umpire. If he sees that 2-0 pitch as a strike then he needs to find a new job.

Unreal. Then gardner has to swing at the same junk on 2-1 because it was called a strike
There we go Judge  
illmatic : 10/20/2017 10:49 pm : link
Let's go baby
A Judgian blast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Holy Moly Judge just crushed that one

3-1 Astros

What a shithead

It would be 3-2 if the ump were competent  
Greg from LI : 10/20/2017 10:52 pm : link
AT LEAST 3-2
Shit had to almost hit Didi  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 10/20/2017 10:52 pm : link
for him to call it a ball.
Nice being fucked out of multiple runs tonight  
Stu11 : 10/20/2017 10:54 pm : link
By an incompetent HP umpire. Joe better fucking speak up if we lose this one.
Gary suddenly seems lost at the plate  
illmatic : 10/20/2017 10:55 pm : link
at the worst possible time. Check swings on 3-0, lunging at first pitch outside, watching meatballs go over the plate.
Can't complain about that call  
Greg from LI : 10/20/2017 10:56 pm : link
Gotta swing at that, Gary
Gary can be awfully frustrating.

What the FUCK is Sanchez doing up there  
Bchurch : 10/20/2017 10:56 pm : link
God I hate this Houston team. They are so God damn cocky..
Really Sanchez  
BigBlue4You09 : 10/20/2017 10:56 pm : link
That’s not nearly close enough to take
I love Gary.  
Stu11 : 10/20/2017 10:57 pm : link
Can't wait to watch him for the next decade. However his approach at the pkate is mind boggling at times.

Hope we survive and make them sweat in the ninth.
Fastball down the middle on 3-2

Really wish Sevy only gave up 1 run instead of 3.

Gardner has to swipe at a ball off the plate where the ump's zone is. Totally changing the balance of the at bat.

We better get that zone tonight and/or tomorrow.
DRob gets an inning

Home plate umpire has cost us  
Kyle in NY : 10/20/2017 11:00 pm : link
at least one more run with the calls in the Hicks and Gardner ABs

This strike zone has been constantly moving. How is this the umpire they select for the biggest game of the season to date?

Guess not. Hope CC's got something left in the tank.
Altuve homers, 4-1

A fan made a nice catch on that
