Not as bad as those two back-to-back pitches to Zimmerman, which in tandem doubled the size of the strike zone.

Short version: the consensus was me against IBB.
This zone has been wide all night, just mostly for Greinke. Glad he called it for the Nats for once.

ILB, I mean.

But more importantly, three outs left.

you don't run for Zimmerman here? I need that 5th run
― Suggest Banshee (Hadrian VIII), Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:27 (four years ago) link
Cole still not in the game, there has to be a story there. He couldn't get loose? Warmed up too many times?
At the end of the day, how do you not use your best pitcher in game 7 of the WS?
― NoTimeBeforeTime, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:27 (four years ago) link
xp moot now but
Honestly don't know whether I'd send Corbin out or not. Have no sense of him or Doolittle.
― clemenza, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:28 (four years ago) link
Cole never pitched in relief and pitched yesterday.

If they score here go batter to batter

Nationals might make it moot

The current astros pitcher has a small number near the brim of his hat. Maybe it’s a 45 in honor of our Dear Leader?? Now that’s a true patriot!

Cole pitched in game 5 three days ago.

The Nationals got here by using their best starters on two days rest throughout the playoffs.
Cole could go

Oh yah true
― Van Horn Street, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:33 (four years ago) link
Please squeeze out one more run.
― clemenza, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:33 (four years ago) link
I’m sorry everyone
The Nats are like the 2015 Royals in that they dominated the playoffs in the late innings. What is their run differential from the seventh inning on?
― NoTimeBeforeTime, Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:36 (four years ago) link
Ah yes
― Its big ball chunky time (Jimmy The Mod Awaits The Return Of His Beloved), Thursday, 31 October 2019 03:36 (four years ago) link
Yes

Buck did some first-guessing last inning and wanted Corbin back out there. Shouldn't matter now.

The right team won

I don’t know if I like the strikeout or the harmless popup for the last out more

Incredible, absolutely incredible.

Scherzer has a ring. My favorite player has a ring. This is deeply deeply satisfying.

Has their ever been a seven game series where the home team lost every game?

There
congrats Expos!

I guess the Astros are our generation's version of the '69-'71 Orioles, rather than the 90's Yankees.

Someone wise here once said that the team to seem to have the most fun is the team that wins and this perfectly encapsulate those Nats.
