I was starting to feel a bit guilty, with Happ giving up hits all over the place but somehow only one run, whereas Darvish made just the one mistake to Tulo. But now the mistakes are starting to pile up (except for Pillar's, WTF was that).

Typical Gibbons, trying to squeeze one inning too many out of his SP.
Although given our bullpen options, I'm not sure it wasn't worth a try (they pitched way over their heads in the WC game).

We've got a PD day today--workshops, no students--and in the middle of a full-staff math presentation by one of our resource teachers, our principal jumped up and half-yelled "Home run, Tulowitzki!"

The Jays don't really have anyone left to bridge to Osuna if Liriano gets hammered here.
― NoTimeBeforeTime, Friday, 7 October 2016 20:07 (seven years ago) link
this seems unwise, three run lead or not

Liriano didn't pitch well, but at least he's not seriously hurt after that comebacker.
At this point I'm wondering why we're carrying Tepera, Feldman, and Loop if they're not to be trusted unless it's the 17th inning and/or a blowout.

another weird passed ball

Tepera and Loop sighting! I wonder what it would take to get them in the game. Unless this game is tied going to extras, I'm guessing Gibbons sticks with Osuna win or lose.

I was almost in full panic mode when it was 3-1 to Odor.
That was a man-sized save by Osuna. Good thing there's a day off tomorrow.

He'll need an X-ray as a precaution at least, and hopefully that's all there is.
― NoTimeBeforeTime, Friday, 7 October 2016 20:58 (seven years ago) link
Had to listen to the last two innings in the car--nerve-wracking. It seemed like a game they were destined to lose the way the offense shut down after the big inning.
Go Indians (even though I'm now worried we're going to catch them during the year that makes up for 50 years of a city's sports misery).

Liriano out a week, replaced on roster by Danny Barnes

He can return for the ALDS I think.

You just know this reliever for Texas with the porno stash and party in the back hair has a bitchin' ride.

Oh, those bases on balls.

Sanchez ain't right. This is looking like his last inning, which means Gibbons will try to squeeze another one out of him.
― NoTimeBeforeTime, Monday, 10 October 2016 00:52 (seven years ago) link
See I knew Sanchez was getting stronger as the game went on. Who wanted to pull this guy?
― NoTimeBeforeTime, Monday, 10 October 2016 01:09 (seven years ago) link
swinging at first pitch might be dubious there

When Sanchez walked Odor (who never walks) they HAD to pull him.

Pillar finally missed one. (Would've been a great catch, obviously.)

Mazzara made a running catch, Pillar just missed making the catch ... game of inches, if it goes the other way, that's a four run swing there.

i'm glad they don't play with 40-man, 18-pitcher rosters here

Thx to the Rangers for swinging at everything vs Osuna and keeping his pitch count low so he can pitch the 10th if we don't score here.
― NoTimeBeforeTime, Monday, 10 October 2016 02:35 (seven years ago) link

Bush vs Osuna is a pretty good showdown so far

No. Seven innings no earned runs for TX so far 2day.

The Jays need to win it here because I have no clue who pitches the 11th if they don't.

TX relievers had given up earned runs in one inning of the sixteen they had pitched up until that inning.

Seventeen now with the error.
