2017 mlb alds yankees vs indians

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.

Amazing battle from Gardner and what a brainfart by Cleveland's defense.

Frazier's slide was great too, anything less and he would have been out.

I'm not saying it was Enos Slaughter or anything, but to get from first to home even with that bad relay you had to be busting it.

I've definitely seen worse throw ins, he just had to hit third right as Lindor fumbled the ball and kept on trucking.

ONly thing I can figure is that really since it just got through the infield it took a bit for Jay Bruce to get to the ball, as he might have been playing kinda deep.

The Indians are starting to get those thousand-yard stares : )

The insurance run had already scored ahead of him, which made it a much easier gamble to take.

This is going to be a gut shot and a half to real Tribe fans if it ends where it is. This team is so good. That said, this is a hungry Yanks club, probably the most since 96.

Love the quick cuts to Cleveland babes between pitches

This had been a heck of a series.

boy oh boy i'm glad i don't have to root for chapman to close my team's series.

Always a pleasure to see Francona lose

After Game 2 I was resigned to a series loss--I mean this Indians team was a juggernaut, no shame in losing to them.

Amazing comeback, Didi, Tanaka, Bird, Gardner, Robertson, CC, heroes forever in my book.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

let's go stros

maybe they'll change their bad-luck mascot to something luckier

Indians defense gave this one away. Great pitching by Miller and Allen all for naught.

that last call strike call was iffy.

NIGHTY NIGHT

There is a some things to like about this Yank club, much more blue collar than usual. I kinda dig seeing old dogs like CC getting a win tonight, as he had been good for so long.

Either way, the Astros series should be really good. I had a feeling this year's playoffs were going to be really good, it's one of those seasons where the top clubs (outside maybe the the Twins - sorry) were all pretty good.

calstars is trash clearly, how could one root against st tito

I hate the Yankees so much. But this was a great comeback.

Cleveland dominated in Game 1 and could still start Kluber twice on regular rest, you can't plan it much better than that.

(just playin calstars)

but yea what the fuck happened to kluber

yeah that's key, yanks only where they are because Kluber wasn't Kluber anymore.

anyway as a hard astros bandwagonner i'd rather they face the yankees than the indians.

It happens. There are two guys left that have that kind of onus setting on them with Kershaw and Verlander.
