GDT: 2018 ALWC - Oakland A's at New York Yankees - 10/3 8:05 PM

[Vamos Rafa]

yeah lets just see the same teams in the playoffs year after year

and red sox-yankees hasn't been a rivalry since the early 00s

Huh? This will be their first meeting since 2004 so what are you talking about? 14 years is long enough for fans to miss it.

And Red Sox-Yankees is a rivalry that never dwindles...

The Yankees don't make the playoffs every year, and this is the first time they've met since 2004.

And it's always been a rivalry.

 

[Machinehead]

Last playoff series was 04, wasn't it?

I personally prefer remembering 03

You're right.

'04 never happened. Fake news.

 

[Vamos Rafa]

I’m a Voit fan but he really has to watch the on field antics. He will be thrown at by Boston if he does what he did tonight on that triple

Didn't you just watch that promotion with Ken Griffey? S t f u about celebrating already.

exactly. it hasn't been a rivalry since the early 00s

its definitely dwindled since 04. all we've seen between them since then is dempster throwing at a-rod and the kelly/austin fight this season

 

[Machinehead]

Pearl Jam?

 

[darko]

Once again ..I wanted the A's to win but I sure didn't. See it..
The A's are playing in the same park tonight.. These Yanks like or not (I don't)have stud hitters.
That's their MO

111-110 wRC+ (accounts for ballparks) advantage Yankees. You are seriously underrating A's offense.

That one handed bat hold where he freezes is really childish. Never seen that one before.

 

[Machinehead]

Hech saying hi to mom lol

 

[Marcobruin]

a bruins AND yankees fan?

lols

Bruins fan yes..
Yanks fan... definitely not

Puig got destroyed by the media for doing that in the 2014 playoffs. Voit was at least running up the line vs standing at the plate with his arms up but that’s not gonna fly with the Red Sox.

 

[Terry Yake]

welp

next few seasons are looking very good for the A's

Boston can f***ing kick rocks if they don't like it.

 

[NJDevs26]

I can't exactly blame Voit for styling when he basically won the game with that triple. Just like I didn't have a problem with Bautista's bat flip when he broke a tie in Game 5.

Lol what do you mean it hasn't been a rivalry? Red Sox-Yankees is forever embedded in baseball culture no matter what outsiders say.

It hasn't dwindled and it never will. Rivalries are mostly for the fans and you'd get embarrassingly laughed at if you said that in front of their fans.

 

[Machinehead]

Voit honestly thought he had that one.

It was a little awkward, but nothing more than that. Leave the guy alone.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

yeah lets just see the same teams in the playoffs year after year

Better then seeing the usual A's no show in October routine

A's fans still clinging to a single ALDS series win as high point of franchise over last 25 years?

its a historic rivalry yes

and i'll say it loud and clear for the fans. the rivalry has been dormant since 04

 

[darko]

welp

Manaea/Luzardo

 

[Machinehead]

That's a sublime play

That's their MO

A) Anyone can get shut down in one game
B) The Yankees have better pitching all-around than the A's. The A's may have had a great regular season from their pen but the Yankees have four legit big-time pitchers in the pen while the A's have at most one, and a lot of other complementary guys. Or three big-time pitchers and one very solid one (Robertson).

 

[Ben Grimm]

Voit thought it was a homer. lirl

 

[Vamos Rafa]

Puig got destroyed by the media for doing that in the 2014 playoffs. Voit was at least running up the line vs standing at the plate with his arms up but that’s not gonna fly with the Red Sox.

I don't think Puig gave a shit. Only people with sensitive feelings like you care about petty little shit.

 

[Marcobruin]

You must have a different tv than the rest of the country

I think the tv must be fine. He may be seeing things differently then the ROW

Boston should throw at him just for having that shit haircut.
