But I agree with you, that pitcher hadn't pitched in a month. Oops didn't catch the part about the runners moving up due to that catch. In that case it makes more sense.

RandyMarsh Posted Saturday at 03:52 AM Share Posted Saturday at 03:52 AM First time Cortes has pitched in over a month, poor guy talk about getting thrown straight into the fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasfh Posted Saturday at 03:53 AM Share Posted Saturday at 03:53 AM 7 minutes ago, RandyMarsh said: Can't believe Boone walked to load the bases, I know it gave him a platoon advantage but not only did it make a single beat you more importantly it forces the pitcher to throw strikes. Cortes does not have the type of command to paint the corners so Freeman knew he was gonna be getting something good. Wow great post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasfh Posted Saturday at 03:54 AM Share Posted Saturday at 03:54 AM (edited) How great is it that Derek Jeter has to sit on a panel while Dave Roberts, the guy with the steal that sparked the Red Sox comeback against the Yankees in 2004, talked about beating his Yankees in the World Series Game 1 this year? Couldn’t be better. And he had not a single word to say. Edited Saturday at 03:55 AM by chasfh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great baseball for fans. If only Vin Scully had been here to call Freddie's shot 1986 was insane. Red Sox were down to their last out in the ALCS before Dave Henderson saved them. Mets beat the Astros in something like an 18 inning marathon in the NLCS. Then the World Series with Buckner and all that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guy incognito Posted Saturday at 04:28 AM Share Posted Saturday at 04:28 AM I listened to the ESPN Radio broadcast of the game. I can't find a clip of his call of the Freeman slam anywhere, but I fully expect Jon Sciambi to be hoarse for tomorrow night's game. That was the first walk-off grand slam in a WS game ever, by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guy incognito Posted Saturday at 04:30 AM Share Posted Saturday at 04:30 AM Here's the Dodgers radio call. If you listen to the end you can hear a simultaneous nod to Vin Scully and Fernando Valenzuela. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guy incognito Posted Saturday at 09:22 PM Share Posted Saturday at 09:22 PM I can still remember watching that Gibby HR in my parents’ bedroom with my dad, my brother, and my brother’s friend who was staying with us for the evening. Us three boys were going nuts, and Dad (who hadn’t forgiven him for not re-signing with Detroit) just shook his head and said “Gibson” in flat disgust. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordstanley Posted Sunday at 01:17 AM Share Posted Sunday at 01:17 AM Rodon got rocked. Another Freeman homer. 4-1 Dodgers after 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IdahoBert Posted Sunday at 02:09 AM Share Posted Sunday at 02:09 AM This 4-1 Dodgers lead halfway through the sixth is starting to look real, but I would never count out a New York Yankees team in this situation. I do find myself pulling for LA simply because I have a lot of resentment built up with the Yankees over the years which does not exist with the Dodgers. I also have a lot of friends who are Dodgers fans here in Idaho who, even though of Mexican ancestry, have forgiven the team for the way people were forced out of Chavez Ravine to make room for that stadium. But they have indeed had to think about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
