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.

Any of these astros dopes

Gonna complain about the ball park now? What a joke
Oh well.  
Dave in Hoboken : 10/20/2017 11:02 pm : link
Onto tomorrow.
DRob doesn't have it tonight  
dpinzow : 10/20/2017 11:02 pm : link
Correa with a hard hit double to the left field corner
I'd take out Robertson right away  
Kyle in NY : 10/20/2017 11:02 pm : link
.
Two pretty big mistakes by Joe tonight  
illmatic : 10/20/2017 11:02 pm : link
Letting Severino face Altuve and bringing in Robertson here. Now Correa doubles. You're potentially making Robertson tired if he appears tomorrow night and you have to wonder a little bit about his confidence since they're hitting him tonight. Just dumb to bring him in here.
Game over  
terz22 : 10/20/2017 11:03 pm : link
Fuck.
Ummmmm what the fuck is Robbie still doing in there?  
Stu11 : 10/20/2017 11:03 pm : link
?
Would have brought in Warren trailing 3-1  
dpinzow : 10/20/2017 11:03 pm : link
He's done well in limited appearances and I don't like wasting the top relievers down 2 runs

Yup, this is now risking adverse effect for tomorrow night. Where’s Warren?
Whole lot of celebrating  
Kyle in NY : 10/20/2017 11:04 pm : link
by the Astros here, considering this would only tie up the series
Great, let's get everyone feeling good on that team.  
bceagle05 : 10/20/2017 11:04 pm : link
.
Just pull him  
Dave in PA : 10/20/2017 11:05 pm : link
He's been lousy the last few times out, but we may need him for 5 or 6 outs tomorrow. This game is over don't compromise tomorrow
And he's still leaving him in  
illmatic : 10/20/2017 11:05 pm : link
What the fuck, Joe.
Oh well  
dpinzow : 10/20/2017 11:06 pm : link
On to Game 7
I'm not quite sure  
Kyle in NY : 10/20/2017 11:06 pm : link
What Girardi is doing here
get Garcia  
MookGiants : 10/20/2017 11:06 pm : link
in and Robertson out right now
And it's a party in Houston  
illmatic : 10/20/2017 11:07 pm : link
after wasting Robertson here and likely fucking with his confidence. I'm sure Houston would look forward to seeing him come in tomorrow at this point.
Fuck off Robertson  
BigBlue4You09 : 10/20/2017 11:07 pm : link
And Sanchez is a disaster
Sanchez and the drops  
RasputinPrime : 10/20/2017 11:07 pm : link
why is Robertson in there.
Keep laughing boys.  
bceagle05 : 10/20/2017 11:07 pm : link
Verlander ain't saving your asses tomorrow.

Danny Kanell : 10/20/2017 11:07 pm : link
Does Houston think they won the pennant tonight?
Once again, would have brought in Warren in this spot  
dpinzow : 10/20/2017 11:07 pm : link
It doesn't matter if he gets lit up...it matters a great deal that DRob got lit up
Awesome guys  
Bchurch : 10/20/2017 11:08 pm : link
Just gave them ALL THE FUCKING MOMENTUM IN GAME 7... nice job Sanchez btw... how is this guy a catcher?
I guess Kahnle is number 2 in the pecking order  
Dave in PA : 10/20/2017 11:08 pm : link
Tough to trust Robertson as much as we'll probably really need him to come up huge in the middle innings tomorrow. All the momentum with Houston now. Need a signature CC stopper game
Well besides them getting like 6 runs early  
Stu11 : 10/20/2017 11:08 pm : link
This is about as bad as it gets. Their big bats came alive, Robbie got absolutely corked, and Green pitched 2+. Its up to the Big Fella thankfully we have him. I trust him.

Total front running team. Whining to umpires and throwing fits when it's not going well. Whooping it up like they just won the pennant tonight. Another game to play, and their aces aren't there to save them tomorrow.

They might not have a choice. I guess they could go CC for 5, Kahnle for 2 and Chapman for 2 but that would have to be a perfect scenario

Hahaha I laughed.
Robbie can bounce back.

CC, Kahnle, Robbie and Chapman. Hope they have enough, and we score some fucking runs.

DB finds himself here...
I wonder who's pitching tomorrow?  
bceagle05 : 10/20/2017 11:13 pm : link
McCullers looked pretty good, and only threw 80 pitches.
Probably Morton  
illmatic : 10/20/2017 11:15 pm : link
with literally everyone available for them at the first sign of trouble.

Im thinking McCullers starts and gives them all he can followed by Morton for maybe 2, Keuchel will throw 1 inning and piece it together with that shit bullpen. It would be very satisfying to send this fuckin bunch home crying on their own field
So happy Verlander or Keuchel aren't pitching tomorrow.

Agreed as will McCullers even if he doesnt start. Thats why whomever they start only has to give them 3 or 4 innings. I still like our spot with the big fella but if they get going early it coukd be rough.
A Game 7 reduces the Yankee bullpen edge  
dpinzow : 10/20/2017 11:17 pm : link
since Keuchel and McCullers/Morton will be available as starters out of the pen

Keuchel could come out of the pen for an inning or two
We got Keuchel on full rest.  
Dave in Hoboken : 10/20/2017 11:17 pm : link
He won't be anywhere near full rest if he pitches tomorrow.
In retrospect, bad move bringing in Robertson. Warren would've  
Jim in Hoboken : 10/20/2017 11:18 pm : link
been the better choice.

And Sanchez is just tantalizing in some aspects and just downright putrid in others. Somebody needs to sit him down and work with him on D.
