Non-Cubs Playoff Games Thread

[NOLA]

They absolutely could congregate and change a call.

 

Not when they had previously ruled the play dead. I mean, the rule on the books(as silly as I think it is) was correct for Odor to score there, so the end result isn't super unjust, but umpire calling a play dead killing everything that's ongoing is not a fact that it's in doubt. Unless you have a replay review, the umpire's ruling is an eraser to anything that could be considered in progress.

This. Much more eloquent than my reasoning.

This shows the best part of that HR: the bat flip. Or throw maybe.

Cubs vs Blue Jays would be a dong fest of a World Series.

I don't get FS1. Did the benches clear because of the bat flip?

The time I saw was after the inning and it was because Dyson and Tulowitzki exchanged words. AFAIK Bautista's bat flip didn't result in anything but awesomeness.

Encarnacion was motioning to the crowd to stop being dickbags, and the Rangers took it the wrong way.

No, because Encarnacion was telling assholes to stop throwing [expletive] on the field, and Dyson thought he was conducting the crowd or something.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think Encarnacion was trying to gesture to keep fans from throwing stuff, and Dyson took exception because he thought it was grandstanding or otherwise directed at him.

No, the next batter was trying to get the crowd calmed down and the pitcher misinterpreted what he was doing and they exchanged words, then the benches cleared.

Redeem yourself, Elvis!

Dear MLB, I hereby withdraw my protest

There's no chance Gibbons is sober right now.

The Rangers players look as defeated and down spirited as the 03 team did. Just lifeless.

Any chance the Stro's or Royals beat the Jays?

Sure.
