Who had a solo shot from a left handed first baseman to take an early lead.

Its a bad omen

Because our offense is going to split the Fillmes in half!

Our offseason is gonna be messy
If the McCourts can’t figure it out. If Jaime ends up as sole owner, will she make some weird changes? I guess she can’t be worse than her husband, or better for that matter.

Padilla’s line 52 pitches, 39/13 strike/ball, 3 hits, 0 walks and 4 K.
That is pretty good.

Yeah he’s pitching fine in my book right now. Plus, the HR was to Howard, so that’s excusable.

Good God Ruiz owns us
Career Split against us
.378 .511 .622 1.132
Next closest is Arizona at a .891 OPS when looking at more then 10 at bats. So against us he’s 250 OPS better then against anyone else, and almost .500 points better then his norm.

All chants of _______ Suck
Are pretty much worthless, cause typically the loudest of these chants are for teams or players who don’t suck.
Its just hard to get a good creative chant going.

I remember being in the pavillion, and there was this one dude that would just go crazy for Hee Sop Choi
“Oh man, Hee Sop Choi would have caught that!”
“Hee Sop Choi could have hit it farther!”
Even – “Hee Sop Choi would have struck that dude out, give the ball to Heeeeee Sop!”

And yours seems really, really low
“Skinny: Simulator Fun Facts… My simulator and Vegas are in very good agreement on the Game #2 win probabilities. The Game #1 loss dropped the Dodgers ‘Series Win Probability’ down to 38.1%. A win tomorrow will raise it back up to 51.9%, while a loss would drop it to a depressing 19.9%.”

20% is kind of pessimistic

in the 1996 WS
the yankees lost both games 1 and 2 to the Atlanta Braves at home
Torre managed that club….but they turned it around in Atlanta
taking all 3 games including a game 4 rally from a 6 run deficit
and they clinched it in game 6 in new york
i know anything is possible but id like to avoid this…
