The Yuli HR has almost gotten underrated with everything that has happen since. When the Dodgers were up 4-0 it was a pretty miserable feeling in that building (including me lamenting how much money I had spent to watch this shite ) and that one swing changed everything.

Davis call of the Alvarez HR was better than any Buck call ever.

The Steve sparks radio call of Gurriel HR in game 5 of Kershaw was an all timer. "Arrrribbbba!!! “

I caught one of Gumbel's sports segments on HBO last night and they did a piece on Baker.

I had forgotten that his 2 closest calls to the WS were both devastating losses in Game 6's

To the Angels in '02 with a 5 run lead and the Bartman ball were both Game 6, albeit the NLCS in the latter

say what you will about Buck but that one was perfect

2017 game 5 had a bunch. ALtuve's HR and Springers get back HR were great

Don’t forget this one…it gets overlooked compared to the others but I think it’s arguably the most important hit in Astros history. We were in deep shite if this hadn’t happened.

Marwin was in a miserable slump too if recall

It was good to see him make the adjustments needed.

Marwin will have my undying affection for that as long as I'm breathing. We don't win that series if we come home down 2-0

ALtuve's HR


I had Dodgers fans behind me. 2 grown men with a small boy. You can make your own familial determinations there.

When he hit the 3-2 foul ball HR, I turned back to them and said, “How do you give him anything to hit here?”

After he hit it, they accepted their fate

Chas is playing the role of Trevor Williams bitch tonight. 0-3 with 3K.


Pena hit a 2 run homer. Garcia wasn't particularly effective. He went 3.2 IP with 7 hits and 4 runs before he got pulled with the bases loaded and then came back in to pitch the next inning.

Yordan is 0-3 with a couple deep balls to center, one was well struck that got held up by the wind.

Garcia has a role

He was a piece at one point in a trade, but I think he has legitimate value at this point

Going from games that "matter" to ones that don't, right before games that matter again. I'd say Garcia's outing today is filed under Utterly Meaningless.

The first time I ever set up two tvs in the living room. Will never forget that night.
