OT: All-Purpose Sports Thread IV - EDWIN BAT DROP EDITION (NFL, MLB, etc.)

[littleD]

Welp, Goins f*** up is a huge momentum shift.

Not a good way to try and win a game.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Jays melting down in the 7th.

Total meltdown right now. Goins started it with his incredibly dumb mistake but Price is stumbling once again and the defense looks like it isn't even trying.

Really frustrating.

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

Goins called for it trying to make an over the shoulder catch then... fell down. Like... good grief. Such a momentum shift, and now we gotta score off the bullpen.

Deep breaths. I thought we had this one in the bag.

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

Way to leave Price in forever. Sanchez has been warm for 15 minutes.

 

[Senscore]

Total choke job in this game.

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

Total choke job in this game.

I hate this "Jays choke" thing, but they totally are this game. Goins with the epic error (that was somehow ruled a hit.. what?) and Price couldn't recover after striking out the side the previous inning.

Also, Gibby is leaving pitchers in too long. Price should have been gone after 3-3, now Loup with 2 straight walks while Lowe was warm(ing), and then gives up an RBI single after 12 straight balls.

Yikes.

Doesn't help that Kansas' bullpen is way better than ours...

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Blue it

Gibbons has left Price in too long three times in these playoffs.

I don't care if it's your ace, you take him out once KC ties it up. But nope, left him there for two more runs. Ugghhh.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Terrible loss, and perhaps unrecoverable against a team like KC.

 

[Senscore]

What a mess. May end up costing the Jays the series.

 

[DrEasy]

Gibby pulls Price earlier if we still have Cecil. Without Cecil he figured he'd let him face a few lefties. He didn't pitch badly either, just balls finding the holes.

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

Ryan Goins sat alone at a table for six in the middle of the clubhouse, his fork picking at a plate of salad and shrimp, his head down, the occasional teammate walking by and patting him softly on the shoulder.

This one hurt.

That's harsh; he may be responsible for one baserunner, but they scored 5 runs in that inning.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Agreed. All was definitely not lost after that error. I mean, it was terrible, but it's not an excuse for losing this game.

 

[littleD]

Jays must be the worst best offense in baseball.

 

[ChocolateLeclaire]

That's harsh; he may be responsible for one baserunner, but they scored 5 runs in that inning.

He's a baller. If you've played the game long enough, you know how your mistake can cause a waterfall effect.

It's like a goalie letting in one weak goal giving the other team momentum and the team craps itself in front of him shortly after resulting in a loss. The goalie still blames himself for giving them life.

 

[BonkTastic]

Ugh, Michael Vick is very, very bad at quarterbacking things.

 

[PeterSidorkiewicz]

Ugh, Michael Vick is very, very bad at quarterbacking things.

Yeah he's done.

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

Yeah he's done.

Good.

Pittsburgh may have the most socially hated QB duo.

 

[The Waffler]

What a 3rd inning there. Holy.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

What a 3rd inning there. Holy.

It's beautiful.

Hopefully they can hold a lead for once.

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

Epic power trip by the home plate ump just now - tossed Tulo after making terrible calls on Tulo and Martin low and away.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Wow, umps throwing Tulo out of the game.

There had better been some very disrespectful things being said by him, because this is a highly impactful decision.

 

[Senscore]

Take that Paul Rudd.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

11-8 top of the 9th 1 out stay tuned.

2 out now
