Favorite games of 2019 season

Before we move to baseballs whirlwind action packed offseason, I did want to think back on this year beyond the stats.

For me, the nationals games were the highlight of the season:

- This game where jimenez hit his first homer at home, that seemed like it went 700 feet

https://www.mlb.com/news/eloy-jimenez-launches-462-foot-home-run-vs-nats

Then the week prior had this game that the sox lost but was just a great baseball game:

https://www.espn.com/mlb/recap?gameId=401075643

- Jose/Wellington back to back jacks that tied game in 8th

- Just prior to that, moncada smoked a ball into the gap that featured one of the best catches I've ever seen by Robles, who was amazing.

The vince velazquez game - just insane.

Sox Cubs - 6/18 game

- Eloy homers in the 9th to break a 1-1 tie, in his first game at wrigley as a pro

7/3 Jose's walk off blast vs tigers

- Also had Yoan homer from both sides of plate

- Cordell hit 2 home runs in this game

One of giolito's starts need to be mentioned but can't remember when the best ones were.

Sox pitchers strike out 20 tigers, with 14 from lopez

Any others?

I vote for the Cubbie game where Eloy hit the game winning homer.  I was at that one and would like to relive the following...I did not see it but my wife said that whoever caught the ball was a Sox fan in the bleachers who, amid the cheers of "throw it back",  stood on his chair holding his prize up high...Then he kissed the ball and sat back down.  ^_^

The Sox fans were very loud at Wrigley that night...it was awesome!!!

Eloy go-ahead homers in 2 games this year, both games Nova won. 2 of my favorites.

Yeah as I went through these I thought that Eloy definitely won the memories this year even if Moncada was just always dominant and Gio was amazing.

TA's game against the tigers and the royals batflip leading to the fight were certainly memorable too.

But, 2019 belongs to eloy the way 2018 belonged to Palka - so it's not a performance thing just he had a lot of opportunities and took advantage.
