Go SOX

Alex Cora is still a cheating cunt, but yeah happy to see the Sox through. Judge out at home plate was big.

Massive out, Judge. I guess taking on the arm of an All-Star shortstop is fraught. Shows what pressure will do.
But fuck the Yankees.

MY BOY!!!

Absolutely fucking love him. :blue_heart:

The order of teams I hate in the NL goes Cardinals by a hair over Dodgers so that really was a turd burger vs shit sandwich game for me. Happy to see the tears of the Cardinals fans, but hoping the Giants demolish the Dodgers.

I agree with every word of this. Hopefully KB destroys them.

Happy seeing the Brewers getting beaten too

Absolutely. The Braves are problematic for obvious reasons, but they have a very likeable team at the moment. Especially pleasing to see Hader give up the winning dong.

Absolute nail-biter in the west.

Justice. :beers:

Never a swing…

What a ridiculous way to end a 107 win season.

Horrible call for sure, but they won a head to head game when the final out (Ruf iirc) did go around against Kenley and the umpire didn’t call it. So they ended up winning the division by that one game on an equally terrible call.

Whilst that was a bad call, the game was in July and it followed an even worse strike call earlier in the AB, so it should have eventuated in a walk anyway.

Moral of the story is that umpires are terrible and they serve no purpose when video technology exists.

Go Braves I guess.

Agreed, I’m all for an electronic strike zone.

The Chop lives!

The graphics and score box on the Fox US games is awful. That font looks like it’s Halloween every day, straight out of the Addams Family or something.
