If this goes to game 7, I'd say there's a 45% chance the Diamondbacks can win tomorrow.

Are any of these guys (esp some of the older bigger name guys) even gonna play in that league?

Scherzer vs. Javier. Heaney pitching the 9th pretty much guarantees that's the matchup.

Astros are 1-4 in the playoffs at home, 5-0 on the road.

Adolis Garcia would be the ALCS MVP if the Rangers didn't blow game 5.

Don't like using Leclerc here instead of Chapman.

It's weird because his combine velocity numbers aren't bad. It could be that his mechanics just don't allow him to throw the ball real far.

I still think the Phillies win this series, but man, the Astros are gonna wipe the floor with them if their bullpen is this bad.

Kimbrel blowing up at the worst time.

You could even argue that he refused to leave after getting ejected just to make Leclerc sit for longer.

That's the series.

1st and 2nd nobody out in 2 innings and they might get 0 runs. Got nobody but themselves to blame.

Now Garcia getting tossed might matter.

And that is why I would have bunted.

Because Altuve almost had that.

Semien's been dreadful. I'd rather have him bunt than swing away.

Not scoring after 1st and 2nd nobody out...then having your closer sit for that long with no real options behind him. Yikes.

Leclerc sitting for so long is not working out.

The rule is that if you intentionally throw at someone the umps can throw you out. You do it and you live with the consequences. You gotta remember that Dusty had Graveman throw at Abreu in game 5 in 2021 cause Rodon hit Altuve early in the game. When it comes to enforcing their unwritten rules, guys like Baker and TLR don't care what the situation is.

Leclerc's been sitting on the bench for 25 minutes.

It was so obviously intentional. And the Astros really don't get the benefit of the doubt cause it's not the first time they've done something like this against the Rangers.

They have to toss Bryan Abreu after that. It was so obviously intentional. Toss that b**** Maldonado too.

Wow the Astros are some serious bitches. They plunked Garcia after his bat slam and it was very intentional.

Jose has no chance against 100+ MPH fastballs anymore.

Yes it was half a foot outside. The ump missed an obvious strike 3 on Maldonado to lead the inning off too. I guess you can call it even.
