9/17: Open Rainiers Game 3 Thread
The Rainiers took care of business in Game 2 with a power display, and now, this is it. Should they fail, tomorrow will be it. Should they fail again, then Sunday will be it. Really it. Sunday would be the most it. With luck, the series will not come down to a decisive Game 5, because that would be too much it.
Taking the hill tonight for the good guys: Yusmeiro Petit, who isn't PJ Walters. Taking the hill tonight for the bad guys: PJ Walters, who is PJ Walters. On a scale from Is PJ Walters to Isn't PJ Walters, Petit therefore has a clear advantage, and hopefully he's able to build off that and have a strong outing. We don't need this to come down to the next guy in the rotation. I don't know who the next guy in the rotation is, but this is PCL baseball in the middle of September, so he probably isn't very good.

It feels odd to not have already given up on this game.
The Rainiers actually have the ability to score 3 runs in the next 8 innings. We can still win this!
That is actually hilarious, now that I remember the name of that creature.
How it slipped past me on first glance, I have no idea. I’m the biggest SW nerd I know.
Yes, yes, and yes.
Hits home runs. Wins games. Makes playoffs. Not the worst team in their league. Etc., etc., etc….
Is something wrong with Cortes and Leuke?
Why aren’t they in the game? I do not understand it.
Yeah, it has to be something stupid like that
They had a two run lead with only nine outs to go. They had an off day, so they are both rested. Two innings is nothing for one of them with the Championship on the line. As I said, I do not understand the decision of not putting in two of the best relievers in the entire system in that situation.
Another Tie!
Just got here, wow, these guys are not terrible!
Yeah, I misspelled
WHEN… Though I am a mariners fan, so my celebrations are always tentative…

Run away with it!
At this point, we don’t even need Lueke or Cortes! It’s amazing watching a team that actually scores runs!
Not quite over yet.
Memphis has their best hitters due up. God theyre annoying with their barrage of singles tonight.
Gets the Save?
no wait more than 3 runs… Umm Looks good for the organization so people can shut the hell up about his past transgressions?

C'mon Lueke.
On the plus side, he walked the first man on 4 pitches in the deciding game of the semi-finals.
Oh, that's why he walked him...
To put a guy on base for the DP!
Lueke likes DP (double plays…)
CHAMPIONS! (of the pcl)
YYYYYYEEEEAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!
Ugh
Lueke is all over the place. And a single to Mangini.
Here comes the guy I was most worried about—-lucky for us he cant plate anything more than 2 here.
GAME OVER
RAINIERS CHAMPIONS
Woooooooooooooooooooo. This prolly means more to me than most of you, as I follow Tacoma every year all year…but hey! CHAMPIONS
