Missed with work chaos, couldn’t even get on a browser

7-0? Wasn’t expecting Phils to get through to the final, subsequently drifted back into it as the rounds progressed. The beauty of a series is the better team of the two should prevail over the duration. Should is quite a broad term in sport though innit

That score could easily have been much higher. The Astros were lucky that three of the five Phillies home runs came with the bases empty.

Phillies bats go...MIA. Literally.

Swapped shifts specifically to enable viewing but it’s going tits up. Bit of a dampener for last night too, spare you the details

Highlights don’t do the game justice, hoping to get last few viewings in quietly, show these fucks how it’s done Harper

they'll never get me to care about a combined no-hitter

 

[borzoi]

game one was a classic but really hope the rule changes next year help beat back the unhittable bullpen vs dingers-only offense thing

Weird fact (I think): baseball is the only sport where managers/coaches wear the team uniform.

I think Bill Belichick should don a pair of shoulder pads and tight knee-high pants for Patriot’s games, and Gregg Popovich can sit court side in a tank top and shorts.

Another fun fact: many major sports stadiums here (and maybe elsewhere) have at least one sniper’s nest.

Thoughts and prayers, Wash. Kind of hard to win a Series when you score only three runs in the last 27 innings.

 

[Murphy]

such is life, better team won, praise Jesus

Your Phillies signed an ace free agent shortstop, @WashYourHands. Not sure anyone is worth $300 million, but ya gotta be in it to win it.
