OT: Philadelphia Phillies: We Still Have A Guy Named MacPhail In The Front Office...

Should the Rays lose, taking Snell out after 73 pitches for Nick Anderson will go down as one of the worst manager decisions in World Series history.

It will, but if Cash left him in for the third time through the lineup and they got to him, it would have been as bad. But I didn't like the decision, either.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Lol. Going down like the true cowards they are. Two strikeouts looking to end it.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

How do you strike out LOOKING back to back to end a World Series elimination game?

Unbelievable.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Joe Kelly deserves this.

Unbelievable.

Analytics baby or something.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Really pulling for a Kershaw MVP here.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

It’s nice to win a futures bet from early in the season/before the season even if it was chalk.

 

[Halladay]

Went down looking. Swing the bat.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

What are we at - 46 years by the end of next season? F***.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Who?

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Who?

The purpose of this board, the bane of our existence, Charles Fletcher's Flyers.

Oh. I thought you were referencing your baseball team, which I imagined was the Cardinals and I was thinking you’re terrible at math, Cap.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Yes. Boo this asshole.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Hmm... we only have football now until late December...

I don’t like this.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Also, Justin Turner was removed from the game because he has COVID. This entire Dodgers team probably has it now.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Oh. I thought you were referencing your baseball team, which I imagined was the Cardinals and I was thinking you’re terrible at math, Cap.

My baseball teams are the Tigers and Red Sox. But I am terrible at math.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

My baseball teams are the Tigers and Red Sox.

Nah, it’s the Cardinals. I have spoken.

Don’t make me change it to the Pirates.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Nah, it’s the Cardinals. I have spoken.

Don’t make me change it to the Pirates.

This is a strange twist.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

This is a strange twist.

<3

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

All things considered... this celebration probably shouldn’t be happening with Turner’s test.

Add this one to the list of MLB conspiracies. They didn’t pull him until the Dodgers took the lead and the Rays took the fall so that game seven wasn’t held up due to these positive tests.

Right up there with the league waiting for the Rays to tie the Phillies 12 years ago tonight.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Was Manfred having a stroke there or is he drunk?

 

[Flybynite]

So Turner was pulled... He had to isolate from the rest of the team... Then he came out on the field and took pictures and celebrated the win? Umm ok.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Wow he MLB/Dodgers knowingly let him play and potentially exposed Rays players/coaches to virus as well as everyone he came into contact with (Umps , Dodgers employees , etc)

 

[Ironmanrulez]

Iam new to Baseball but sometimes it seems like Baseball players are utterly stupid. All these covid scandals. How can you represent your Sport that bad? Hockey has done it perfect. Soccer in Germany has done it perfectly. Its possible.... stop doing childish stuff. Athletes and Baseball People are role models for normal people. I would fine them very high, so they will never ever do shit like this again....
