Sports_Freak Posted September 30 Posted September 30 These ESPN clowns talking about Skubal and the Tigers act like they know this team. No, no way. We have our own talking heads that called just about every game. 😄 Quote
Biff Mayhem Posted September 30 Posted September 30 I was driving on the highway pumping my fist and honking my horn. Yes I looked like an insane person. I didn’t care. 2 2 Quote

After I was done and we left that counter, I saw that Vest let a man get to third with one out. On the way to TSA, I did see Vest field the chopper and tag Ramirez out coming off third, and then getting C.J. Kayfus (.500/.583/.700 against us this year) to pop out to Javy. By the time I showed the humorless TSA lady my spiffy new Real ID, I was the happiest person in line. Ramirez got to third with zero outs. Vest struck out a hitter for the 1st out. Scary times...

I just hope Dan doesn’t make any more mistakes like buyers got Ramirez at first, but oh no never mind. He’s on third stuff. This is very hard for my nerves but wow, so deserved Screw those guardians. Would you be willing to spend 30 bucks to get MLB.tv for the postseason? Quote

Well, that’s even worse, isn’t it? Good thing there was already one out when I was able to tune back in, otherwise I might have had a heart dissection on the way to TSA.

oblong Posted September 30 Author Posted September 30 my ESPN feed froze up as the final out was up in the air..... and I kept waiting to get the alert on my phone that the Tigers won, it's pretty instantaneous..... no alert so I was getting nervous. Quote
IdahoBert Posted September 30 Posted September 30 I followed the last inning on my iPhone with the audio feeding through my hearing aids, and when the Tigers won, I turned over the only vehicle nearby I could get my hands on. 3 Quote
lordstanley Posted September 30 Posted September 30 Skubal said just now that he assumed the 7th inning was the end of his day but AJ didn’t give him the handshake and he will never pull himself out of a game. Quote

Back then, there wasn't nearly as many hitters striking out. That was the series Campy Campaneris threw his bat at Lerrin LaGrow. I remember it clearly. Kinda...and I still say Campy shoulda been immediately suspended for a few games. 1 Quote
IdahoBert Posted September 30 Posted September 30 40 minutes ago, Sports_Freak said: I cheated. I couldn't handle that screaming crowd when Skubal walked Hedges so I paused the TV, waited and checked MLB At Bat. Then I did the same in the bottom of the 9th. And after Vest saved the day, I called and canceled my dentist appointment for tomorrow. I changed it to Friday instead.

The class started with the scored tied 1-1 after four. I missed a great game apparently. Skubal and Greene come through when it counts. 34 minutes ago, holygoat said: Bummed I couldn't follow this game live, what with being at work in Texas and all, so I look forward to enjoying a post-work beer and reading this thread when I get home. This is almost like one of those “Where were you when you knew JFK had been assassinated?“ things. I was in sixth grade English class and teachers were gathering out in the hallway crying and they announced it over the school intercom and we all went home. 1 Quote
Shinzaki Posted September 30 Posted September 30 (edited) It would have been beyond tragic for them to waste that Skubal start Re the Kennedy assassination..youtube is a treasure trove of news bulletins from that tragedy. Edited September 30 by Shinzaki Quote

You need a smart TV or a Roku. Maybe a firestick would work too. Or even a DVD player that has apps. Or a smartphone, tablet or PC. Endless possibilities...lol Quote
lordstanley Posted September 30 Posted September 30 For those that had to miss seeing the bottom of the 9th here are the key plays, minus the strikeout for the 1st out. Quote

1776 Posted September 30 Posted September 30 Of the 15 pitches Vest threw, 12 were for strikes. He was his best self today. Quote
IdahoBert Posted September 30 Posted September 30 By the way, if you’re not blacked out from viewing either the Tigers or the Guardians by mlb.tv the game is now available on MLB TV 1 Quote
