NFT: World Series Game 4

Saquads26 : 10/24/2020 11:15 pm
Back and forth we go! All tied now, exciting game so far...
It amazes me regularly that MLB players

Dont know how to bunt. Its like the NBA and free throws.

Worse for guys at the bottom of the order.
John Smoltz is absolutely grating

As a color guy. Making an excuse that the TB SS having to cover the runner at 2nd as an excuse for why he didnt make the play on the bloop. He was totally set and that ball was uncatchable.
Ball one to Renfroe?? What?  
Greg from LI : 10/24/2020 11:55 pm : link
I swear, the Rays must have blackmail material on all these umps. This nonsense has been going on throughout the playoffs.

I agree it is frustrating. But umping, these guys line up behind the catcher and his glove. If the ball is that far off, its tough to adjust your line of sight to see the ball hit the zone.

My non-robot solution is mandate the umps use the blocker again and stand in a box directly behind the plate.

Btw, I dunno how many Phish fans we  
chopperhatch : 10/25/2020 12:19 am : link
Have watching this WS, but that is the 5th Phish jam I have heard when going to commercial. They just did Sneakin Sally (Stones song that Phish has covered for 2 decades), but they played Stash, Axilla, Chalkdust Torture and I forget the 5th. May have been Tweezer.


Kinda cool for the PHANS.
OMG OMG OMG RAYS WIN

Arozarena pulls a Daniel Jones on the way home  
bceagle05 : 10/25/2020 12:23 am : link
and gets away with it.
You gotta be fucking kidding me  
adamg : 10/25/2020 12:25 am : link
Wow
That is gross...  
chopperhatch : 10/25/2020 12:28 am : link
the Dodgers CF and C should have to run laps with Engram.

Ugh. Kenley Jensen....woof

Jones tripped. That guy made a terrible decision and got away with it.

In his defense he was waived home. That 3B coach had no business sending him.
Third base  
steviej : 10/25/2020 12:34 am : link
Coach waved him on Horrible relay throw to catcher Whatta game
Had to be CT who botched that play too  
Greg from LI : 10/25/2020 12:35 am : link
Just brutal all around
Well  
allstarjim : 10/25/2020 12:39 am : link
Game 5 should be fun.

Got to be happy for Brett Phillips. Of the Rays take this thing he'll have a place in baseball history forever.
Joe Buck is a lightning rod for some reason  
bceagle05 : 10/25/2020 12:41 am : link
but he is brilliant in big moments. Nailed that call.
Well, except the Tyree play.  
bceagle05 : 10/25/2020 12:42 am : link
But he was great on the Plax TD.
Ha Ha  
Trainmaster : 10/25/2020 1:04 am : link
F the Dodgers. They deserve this !!!
When Phillips' hit landed in the OF, Jansen sunk to his knees  
shyster : 10/25/2020 1:30 am : link
on the mound and pouted for a second,then got up and wandered in the infield, watching the play, instead of backing up the plate.

If he had been in position, might have had a chance to snag the ball that got by Smith and make a play.

Always keep playing the game.
Dodgers might be entering Bills territory

Kenley Jansen now has 4 blown saves in World Series games, the most of any pitcher in MLB history.

And he NEVER shuts up! Must get paid by the word.
Kenley Jansen is a bum  
5BowlsSoon : 10/25/2020 7:56 am : link
The Dodgers lost a WS because of him in the past and they will probably lose another WS today because of him. Roberts thinks he has to go with him because of his past performance of dominance but what have you done for me lately? They deserve to lose....The Brooklyn Bums!
Missed It!  
Percy : 10/25/2020 9:06 am : link
Can't believe I thought they had a day off and missed this one, a thriller, obviously, making p. 1 of the WSJ. No anticipation or play-by-play interest here? How can that be? A ninth inning to live in baseball history for quite a while, it seems. I'll look for film somewhere.
Rays keeping pulling  
section125 : 10/25/2020 9:08 am : link
games out of the butts the same way they did all year - never giving up. Annoying to the haters.
That was a wild, wild

Seriously. Doesn't get any better than that
Just saw the replay.  
section125 : 10/25/2020 9:40 am : link
Turner takes his eye off the ball to boot it. Muncy makes a horrible 40 foot throw and then the Catcher takes his eye off the ball and whiffs on it...total failure, two errors in 5 seconds of time.

The whole game was crazy. Back and forth. And then the unbelievable 9th. It's definitely one to watch.

It’s not like beating Jensen was an unprecedented feat... but the errors were bad
Not sure it even counts as a real season  
dpinzow : 10/25/2020 12:28 pm : link
since we only played 60 games, but one of these teams gets to put up a banner at the end of it as world champions I guess
