Dodgers and Phillies going into extras

So far in the sixth inning of game #4 neither the Phillies nor the Dodgers seems able to score a run. Do they both think they are the Tigers or something?

I’m not sure what you’re talking about.

I’m glad about Torres. He has been pretty good. One year might’ve been his preference too. I don’t know.

Detroit Tigers had a total home attendance of 2,413,442 (29,796 per game), while the Colorado Rockies had a total home attendance of 2,404,613 (29,687 per game) so we are a fraction better than the Rockies

In my 65 years as a fan, I have never once referred to myself as a “Tigers“ fan. I’m a Tiger fan. Usage trumps grammatical persnicketyism. This is the way Englush is always werked.

Let’s just all make a sacred blood pact that in defiance we will immediately start calling it TIGER STADIUM as soon as the new signage goes up.

It is true there have been huge ups and huge towns for all sorts of teams this season. Usually a number of teams are reasonably good or reasonably bad, but really good teams have gone through really bad spells this year.

I’m still reeling in disbelief at 2am having briefly awakened from a sound sleep with this resounding victory still ringing in my ears. What a strange narcotic it is to be a fan. I had forgotten what that could feel like because it had been so long since they had played this well. The see saws are so cruel and raw. There’s hopeless vulnerability then supreme exaltation. It’s like being slammed against the dock by a large wave then bobbing up, spitting out the water and feeling so grateful to still be conscious and alive. Hope we’re still alive after Friday’s game.

That’s great thank you for the insights.

As it turns out, I really liked what they did with Foundation S-3 on Apple. I found all the jumping back-and-forth between new characters difficult to keep track of but they wrapped up the season pretty well and according to people who are familiar with all the associated books there’s a coherent logic to it that is consistent with the drift of what Asimov originally wrote. Season four is a couple years away, and who knows if the world will still even exist then.

My head is still spinning in disbelief. I hope they discovered how to play well.

When we were down 3-0 I gave up and went to the nearby mall to sit in the corner and sulk and ended up following it on my phone. But when I got back home and clicked on YouTube TV, I was able to pick up where I left off and fast forwarded to the good innings. Ha!

When the Mariners had a 3-0 lead they were all smiles and gloating in the dugout, and they were struck down for their hubris. Ha!

Baez with 4 ribbies? I’m still giving up.

I have not given up giving up! Hinch is a weenie! I fart in his general direction! His mother was a hamster, and his father smelt of elderberries!

yet, I persist in giving up!
