I don’t know if it matters if a team is charging into the playoffs on a roll with a head of steam, or if they back into the playoffs trying to hold onto what they have and making sure no one makes off with the family jewels. That’s why I will not lose a lot of sleep over this. The playoffs are their own animal and I don’t think Big Mo or a lack there of makes much difference. In a three or five game or seven game stretch anything can happen.

Yes, that probably is a factor in honing the mental acuity necessary to keep going.

Sometimes a baseball season feels like it’s 1000 years long. As a fan, it can feel that long. Personally, I’m starting to feel exhausted by it all. I can’t imagine how long it must feel to a ball player. These guys are a special breed. Keeping themselves fit and emotionally and psychologically balanced has got to be an ability unequally distributed among human beings. I know I certainly don’t possess it.

I’m glad this isn’t a WNBA game because there’s all sorts of children on the field right now.

Ha. Win

2 outs…

Don’t suck Will!

One out bottom 9th

Threaten but do not score in the top of the ninth.

Well, in the top of the ninth will the Fish throw a guy out there with a 12.14 ERA to throttle the Tigers? Or stick with the guy with a 9.40ERA.

I sure wish YouTube TV would let me watch the Lions. I think I would be happier.

Zilch.

And they replacing him with a guy with a 9.51 ERA. I know ERA isn’t everything, but this might be indicative of the fact that we should be able to scratch out at least another run I hope.

So the Simpson guy for the Marlins has an 8.44 ERA

McKinstry hasn’t been very good for the last month.

Too bad the Marlins have a pitching staff of Cy Young contenders. Otherwise we’d be scoring more runs. 😜

Well, I’m stuck with watching the Tigers now. On YouTube TV I could only watch 10 or 15 minutes on Sunday Ticket before they cut off the Lions and my only other choice is to watch the 49ers because Idaho is full of former Californians.

Keider doing good.

Maybe more people are watching the Lions.

There were some genuine high points in this game and some really bad luck on hard hit balls that easily found a glove and could’ve really amounted into something if they hadn’t. The relief work was pretty sterling until the very end. If a few bounces had been different, the whole game would’ve been different. So it goes.

Oh fiddle sticks.

Only got one run out of bases loaded no out situation. Bad bounce off the back stop Meadows check swing heck.

Jones in…

Wenceel Pérez doubles (16) on a line drive to right fielder Heriberto Hernández. Riley Greene scores. Spencer Torkelson to 3rd.
