This thing is keeping me up it's so good.

Although the Florida clown in the background, obsessed with himself in a land full of it, keeps standing out in his own cheesy way -- makes me think about hitting the power button, then waking up and actually reading about the ending and how it all unfolded.

Oh, if only Jim Murray were still alive. Those were the days.
 
Yamamoto volunteering to pitch, even though he never entered into the game, was also huge. Roberts was willing to give up the game and put in a position player.

I felt certain he shouldn't have left Klein in any longer and gone with Yamamoto. I was wrong, it worked.

He would've taken a ton of heat had that not worked out. And so it goes.
 
Just saw the replay, that was not as bad as what was described, the batter even stopped when he said strike

He said strike right away.... Shrug

Yeah it was a little high but it was called a strike immediately. That’s 100% on the Jays for not paying attention.

It's on Varsho for throwing the bat aside after it was called a strike.

It's on the ump for calling it a strike when the pitch before was lower and he called that a ball.
And for I'm rooting for Toronto.. well neither really but if the 2 , Toronto
 
I was yelling at my tv, JUST DONT WALK HIM! Really happy for kershaw given his playoff history.
And he tried to walk him three times as the batter swung at three balls to save him. The last of which was the worst and should have been an easy take. But I know once in swing mode and the gravity of the situation you don't want to be caught looking either.

Had the same thought. Though with bases loaded and a full count, I think he should have erred on the side of taking a close pitch given that a ball=RBI. Easy to Tuesday morning QB that one though.

Have a feeling if Yamamoto had gone 5-6 and not thrown a complete game on Sat he might have gone in last night.

But they do have an excellent position player pitcher in **** Hernandez!

I thought the same thing with Hernandez, but he had already been taken out of the game.
 
I went to bed around the 7th. On the one hand, sad that I missed an epic. On the other hand, at least more productive at work today than I would have been otherwise. I feel Iike if I watched until the 9th, I would have been too invested to turn it off when it kept going.

The game kind of stalled out in the 11th or 12th. You didn't miss much after that until the HR.

I went to bed after the 9th while my 16 year old decided to keep watching (he's a Blue Jays fan). I fell asleep for a couple hours and woke up when the dog needed to go outside. Couldn't believe the kid was still up, and really couldn't believe it was the 18th inning. So I decided to stay up just to watch his spirits get crushed.
 
I see we’re starting off with some all over the place umpiring
On Ohtanis's first AB, he called a ball a strike, next pitch made up for it by calling a strike a ball. At least the announcers called it out.

Eric Gregg was more consistent. RIP.

I've only been to one World Series game, game 7 in 1997 when the Marlins beat the Indians in the 11th inning on a 2 out single by Edgar Renteria. My friend had tickets through business.i hardly watch ⚾️ any more.
