Man can you believe Verducci trying to horn in on Dave Roberts with questions while he’s in the middle of making decisions during the seventh game of the World Series? That’s is absolutely offensive.

“Hey Earl Weaver, game 7 of the World Series. You’re down two in the fourth.  What’s your strategy to get back into the game?”

He’s obviously in some pain.  He’s got to juggle what he needs to do with what he needs to do.  He simply got caught there.

Normally I would be sympathetic to that kind of ting, but it’s Game 7, man. Stopping running halfway to first base because you’re hurt is, frankly, not acceptable. If you’re that hurt, then you’re hurting the team while youre in the game, so come out of the game. But if you’re in the game—this game—play the game.

Two big fielding plays by the Jays in the 4th keep the game 3-1 Toronto.

There's no substitute for defense. Game saving defensive Toronto 4th inning plays. Wow.

Every now and then...boom...a gold level post!

It’s too bad the benches didn’t clear in the middle of an interview.

I don’t think Wroblewski was trying to hit the number nine hitter, but it does show that he’s nearly out of gas. This is probably a break for him so he can catch his breath, but he might be all wound up, too. If I’m Roberts, I’m getting him out of there soon as I can.

“So, Tommy, about Kurt Bevacqua…”

[chasfh]

Talk about poetic justice!! Wroblewski clocked by a comebacker!

[GalagaGuy]

I don't know why MLB hasn't put a rule in that if you run onto the field when you're not supposed to be on it, automatic 25 game suspension.

Springer 3 times up, 3 times on.  Not bad.

Wrobleski is Polish for not game 7 material.

[Screwball]

What a crazy game and it's only the 4th.

[IdahoBert]

Just do it Vlad!

Host: Bill Whitehouse, Earl, from, uh,  Frederick, Maryland, wants to know why you and the Orioles don't go out and get some more team speed?

Weaver: Team speed? For Christ sake. You get ****ing god dammed little fleas on the ****ing bases, getting picked off trying to steal, getting thrown out, taking runs away from you. You get them big cock suckers that can hit the ****ing ball out of the ball park, and you can't make any god damned mistakes.

Just wait for the Fan Duel Zamboni races at halftime.

I’m keeping Scherzer in for Ohtani.

Halfway there. Props to mad Max

This is my very favorite manager rant;

Poetic justice? Andrés Giménez doubles (2) on a line drive to right fielder Teoscar Hernández. Ernie Clement scores.
