Ump sure is calling these tight. And the pitchers don't seem to be adjusting just yet.

 

[Ocram]

Good call to pull Garcia there. He had no command at all.

 

[Bogart]

OSB get too cute there? Colby needs to be nails to make it pay off.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Pujols was right, that pitch was in the exact same spot that the previous pitch that was called a ball was. Lewis looks terrific though, what a good time for this kind of outing.

 

[Raider Nation]

As a Little League coach, I selfishly LOVED seeing Freese drop the pop-up. He tried to catch it with one hand. These kids don't listen when you say "TWO HANDS.... TWO HANDS!" Now I have video I can show them as a teaching point.

It even happens to Major Leaguers.

 

[whoknew]

Wow. Young is just a disaster at 1st.

 

[Raider Nation]

Wow. Young is just a disaster at 1st.

Very ugly game all around.

Was that Freese's wife (in the white fleece jacket) they showed before the 1-1 pitch? YUM!

Rewind the DVR...

 

[whoknew]

Wow.

As sloppy as this game has been - and as bad as the managing has been throughout the series (regardless of what RnR says) - the series has been extremely entertaining.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Ogando, oof.

 

[Raider Nation]

Matt is brutal.

 

[shadyridr]

Great throw by Napoli, better blocking of 3B by Beltre

 

[Eephus]

Wonder what Mike Scioscia thinks of that throw

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Wow.As sloppy as this game has been - and as bad as the managing has been throughout the series (regardless of what RnR says) - the series has been extremely entertaining.

And yet another huge mistake, this time by Holliday.

Yep.http://www.playerwives.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/myspace1.jpgCute, but she looked way hotter in the stands. Carry on.

I get that it was a great play by Beltre based on how the game is called. But under the rules - how is it not obstruction?

 

[Ghost Rider]

I have never hated a Cardinal as much as I hate Matt Holliday. My hate is going on two years now.

You can block home plate, why cant you block 3B?

That's obstruction also. They just don't call it.That's what I mean - I get how the game is called. I just think its called wrong.

 

[ArbyMelt]

John Jay the soft groundout machine.

Whats the World Series record for groundouts?

 

[Raider Nation]

Such crazy opposite field power.

 

[whoknew]

Beltre.

Monster HR.

 

[Premier]

That Holliday brainfart at third is going to be an all-timer.

 

[Ocram]

Cards had plenty of chances to win this game and this series and simply blew it. You can't play this sloppy at this stage, especially against a team like the Rangers.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Yep, that is awful on so many levels. Then he had to leave because his tampon fell out when he slid back in.

Well, the Rangers have been pretty sloppy as well; the Cardinals inability to get a hit with RISP the last few games has been their undoing.

 

[Eephus]

this outing is going to stick with Lance Lynn for a while.

 

[coolnerd]

Wow. Young is just a disaster at 1st.

Very ugly game all around.

Not exactly playing up to Wrold Series standards on defense and execution of the small things, but still close and entertaining. As Ranger fan, was looking for that power to break it open earlier, but two ...errr 3 run lead in the 7th is the Rangers to win.

 

[thetman]

Matt Holliday is forever dead to me...what a waste of $!

 

[Da Guru]

Congrats to Texas on winning their first series ever. The best team won.

 

[thetman]

Texas is clearly the better team.

 

[Bogart]

Still need 6 outs.

Why did he come out? Is he dead? How does he leave this game?

His finger got a boo boo, is the official word. More than likely, his ###### probably started aching.Edit: how is the v-word censored? It is what that part of the female body is called.

 

[Raider Nation]

Sucks seeing the legends get old. Musial looks 140 years old. :(

He came out of a world series game because of his finger?Wow.

He was born during the Wilson administration

He would have stayed in if it was game 11

 

[Eephus]

It's nice to see Jay get off the schneid

 

[Raider Nation]

Furcal is awesome.

 

[Ghost Rider]

The Cardinals plate discipline has been pathetic tonight. I lost track of how many outs they've made by going up hacking at the first ####### pitch.

Furcal knows he can't get a hit. Why prolong the agony?

 

[thetman]

How can Holliday even look his teammates in the face?

 

[coolnerd]

Three more before the Ginger Ale

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Hey Bobcat 10>TRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMAN!

 

[Raider Nation]

Would love to see Albert up with a man on just for the theater.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Gotta give the home plate ump some credit, he has called that low borderline strike a ball all night.
