2017 mlb alds yankees vs indians

motherfucking shit

All four runs were unearned because of the error.

Bauer was already at 55(!) pitches when they took him out, a crazy number for 1.2 innings of work but not low enough that he could pitch in relief in Game 5 if needed.

not low enough

Clevinger looks like he would ride a BMX bike to the park.

ha I think of Wiley Wiggins when I see clevinger

ugh this game blows

I put a side-by-side of Clevinger and Lincecum on the looks-like-Lincecum thread a few years ago...and Wiggins is the all-time Lincecum lookalike.

Exactly on the Wiley Wiggins. That scene with them riding in their uniforms on their bikes is definitely something I remember quite well playing baseball as a kid.

Clevinger probably rocks some checkerboard Vans around the clubhouse.

nice two run shot, chip away

Kipnis in CF is kind of a disaster

Severino has delivered some filthy pitches, a lot of downward movement.

Gary Sanchez, sucker-punch HoF member.

Whole stadium drunk on $10 bud lights

well 80% of them are from CT and NJ

ie their beer of choice

i guess you bougies are buying the $14 blue moons

It is a unique Yankee club with all the young guys. Even different than the Showalter/early Torre clubs as those teams had bunches of vet Allstar/HOF ringers on the roster.

It's kind of what the Crime Dog/Jay Buhner/Willie McGee Yankees might have looked like if the Boss could have just let them be.

That said, the crowd cam is pretty much Douchevision 2000 when it pans around sometimes.

hedge funders + minor members of the Bonnano Family

Announcers slobbering on Severino over 100 pitches will look pretty dumb if he gives up a 2 run dinger.

still throwing 100mph 110 pitches into the game, pretty fin baller

Start spreading the news...
Later haters!

i guess calstars is a yankees fan

last word on Joe Girardi, Challenge Hoarder

Mr. October

DDT

what's it like to root for a fascist ballclub, i'm curious

mets can't even get the trains running on time

Klubs chose the wrong month to become mortal again.

I hate to be that guy but these strike zones are garbage.

there is no

pitching

in THIS world

anymooooooore

Grounds crew members still working on divot CC Sabathia left on his sliding catch of Roberto Perez bunt. Not much they can do with it.

cool to see the yanks finally solving their decade long shortstop problem though

20 years imho

DIDI KONG

lol, CC was *on* (so i read after 2 innings)

CC went from peak Cy Young form to being relieved in about three minutes.

Excited CC looks like Sloth from the Goonies

I’ve hated CC Sabathia ever since I fought him in the first Legend of Zelda. #RallyTogether pic.twitter.com/0o6jCliOGe

nice try at smallball there

If this were a random regular season game, I’d laugh and dismiss this strike zone as harmlessly awful. BUT ITS A PLAYOFF ELIMINATION GAME. pic.twitter.com/HuRDwvL3tX

Great commentary by Smoltz -- explained exactly how you'd pitch Sanchez to get him to chase on 3-2 and then it happened exactly as he'd described.

don't really see what the big deal is with that strike zone picture, not that you can derive much from two pitches

Chapman trying for a two inning save vs Cleveland in a winner take all game ... I've seen this somewhere before ...

Right on cue, they're showing the highlights from last year.

High strikes calls have seemed kind of random all night, it's not just those two pitches.

Gardner sticking in the knife.

They will make a big deal about Bruce's throw and Lindor not handling it, but really Frazier was busting azz to get home on that hit through the infield from first on that play.
