No need to be so hyperbolic, Jeff.

The Yankees winning will not destroy the sport.

Joe West is first base umpire, should make for some blown calls at least.

We never heard them specify what he specialized in w/r/t lefties.

It would seem his specialty is in getting lit the fuck up by them.

I wonder what would have happened...

Had we kept Raul and he was part of those 2002 and 2003 teams? Fuck. Oh well, I think the Phillies are going to win this Series now.

Don't fool yourself.

The odds still heavily favor the Yankees, even with Pettite and Sabathia going on three days’ rest.

He would have sat on the bench and continued not playing and probably never developed into a player

Even if he started, we would have never acquired Randy Winn, which means no JoeJessica or Foppert. That’s not a world I want to live in

Yeah, this series is good... but overall a pretty disappointing and lame playoffs.

I mean, game 163 was far, far more entertaining than any game thus far in the playoffs.

Imagine if our hated rivals the Padres had won. I shudder to think how this would affect the already bitter winter of our rivalry.

Many great moments to be sure

but personally I can’t stand when a game is decided by the umps. The Rockies probably would have won anyway, but they shouldn’t have won that way.

by stupidquestions on Nov 2, 2009 9:35 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

Meh.

That was a great game, with a great ending. To me it looked like he touched the plate, and I’ve never really seen anything absolute that shows otherwise.

Upon further reflection, you're right

The play really wasn’t all that clear. Maybe he did, maybe he didn’t. So you have a good point about that. And I never denied that the game had great moments, and the ending was exciting, but the only thing is I guess I wish it was more clear. As do you guys, I’m sure, I like to KNOW that the winner was rightful, but still y’all are right that it was overall a classic.

Something amazing: Chase Utley has a 1.121 OPS in the 2009 playoffs

Something more amazing: Albert Pujols has a 1.108 OPS since 2008

Me too, but then...

I remember that he plays in the NL central and I begin to wonder, is he really the best right hander of all time or is he just a very good right hander who looks like the best ever because of where he plays?
