Baseball: the thread
 

Best baseball game I've seen this year.


7-7. going to extra innings.

D. TO THREAD

SPORTBALLLLLLLLLLL

after seeing the R's get those 3 in the 8th. i texted my brother and said they'd scrape out a run in the 9th and the A's would do it in 15.


maybe it'll be the 12th.


8-7, A's.

Yost is a fucking moron.

Cain, Hosmer, Colon.


tough outs. I'm gonna guess the Angels would just as well see the Royals come back and not the face the A's.

well i can get behind a team like the royals i'm a total baseball bandwagoner but any group of underdogs is okay with me. astros sure, i like the orioles too

will i pay attention to them over the course of the season god no so i mean most of this is pointless i don't think i could tolerate a baseball game in a bar. i mean maaaybe if i was in kansas city or one of these towns i could get into it but out here in the american southwest go spurs

I don't know much about the Royals, other than Hosmer and all that speed they have, but i guess you're talking about bringing in that starter to relieve?

Cain grounds out. now if Hosmer goes yard its still tied. that's a big leadoff out.

he damn near did it...triple off the wall. I smell a 13th inning.

sumbitch...8-8. hold on now...

Yes.

And 5 sac bunts after you steal 6 bases. Idiotic.

8-8

jfc

That said this game is awesome.

Baseball >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> every other sport

i dunno man

football is a thing that exists

baseball is for grandpas like sppunk that like the radio and newspapers by fireplace.

and i will admit that the ratcheting of tension in a baseball contest like this is nearly unparalleled (I submit: any time the attack is on in a tight soccer match) however there are 162 games that precede this for some godawful reason and the best baseball is high stakes

but still go royals, go orioles

anybody but the cardinals

:love:

A line of storms seems to be quickly approaching KC ...

DAMN IT FUCK OFF

i'm serious royals have sucked for a generation it's great to see them here

same with the orioles
same with the senators

the luxury tax did wonders for the parity of this sport, when i gave up on it it was BOSOXYANKEESBOSOXYANKEESBOSOXYANKEESESPNBOSOXESPNY ANKEESBSPNYANKSOX

damnit. congrats Royals.


oh and its official now, Billy Brad Beane Pitt and that Cespedes trade will go down as the biggest blunder ever for him, bar none.

Poor Billy Beane, the Red Sox West couldn't advance again. :(

He doesn't just want to win it. He wants to be the star of it. He's been trading away the most popular players among teammates and fans for years...Tejada, Giambi, Marco Scutaro, Eric Byrnes...Cespedes.


I hope the Red Sox keep Cespedes. He looks good in that uni.

i can hear the fireworks from the stadium from my house.:cool:

boston is the athletics east, actually

Tigers!

Fuck all the rest!

especially the Cubs and all their stupid fans

Nine former Boston players were on the field for Oakland tonight. Hence the moniker.

nice avatar sppunk, is that new?

I don't know anything about baseball but D i'ma throw my weight behind your beloved Royals because it appears their work-hard-get-nowhere ethic mirrors that of my beloved Dockers.

Haaaaaaaaaa

Yeah baseball is god awful television

GO SPURS

This is the only time I give a shit about this weird, boring sport. GO BUCCOS WOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Shit I'll join ya! I don't know much about any sports! But I like watching "big" games like this one and the superbowls/whatever the mlb does.

World series that's what it is.

Giants 8-0 over the Pirates.


Bumgarner totally dominant. Someday Billy Beane will look across the Bay and figure out loyalty matters and mercenaries can't be leaders to a World Series.
