It’s FRIDAY afternoon folks and we have playoff baseball for one of our last weekends of the year! The Friday that’s a week from today will be Game 1 of the WS and the Friday after that would be the theoretical Game 6! My point being is that we’ve only got about 10 days or so of guaranteed baseball left in the season. Sure….if all goes to plan we’ll all be getting hyped for Game 7 of the WS two weeks from tomorrow (Saturday the 21st) but even with the best case scenario we’ve only got 15 days left….half of which will be off days! Ugh how terribly bittersweet! I digress……
We have game 5 of the ALCS between the Astros and the Rangers (Series tied 2-2) starting in 90 min from now with a couple of Aces on the hill with Verlander and Montgomery duking it out. Will Yordan continue his lights out performance tonight? Stay tuned!
After that, at 807pm EST, we have game 4 against the Phillies and the Dbacks (Phillies up 2-1), which could become very, very interesting tonight with another win by Arizona. I’m still blown away by what Brandon Pfaadt was able to do last night…you’ll never be able to convince me that he’s anything other than a gamer!
Buckle up gents! Should be fizzun!

We got us a battle! Houston up 1-0 on a 1st inning homer by Bregman other than one mistake that it’s been a pitchers duel

And they have taken the lead again, chasing Montgomery from the game.

Semien redeems himself! What a play.
-
The Rangers aren’t laying down. Garcia…whoa!

Moved to page 14 for quicker reference.

Man, Chapman has not been the same since he went AWOL on the Yankees. He may need to retire.
-
And the Rangers bullpen strikes again lol, not a real surprise.
My conquest team was down 1-0 in the 3rd against them, they brought i Leclrec and promptly put 14 runs up against them lol

Dont underestimate the power of my icon jinx.

They are all fighting now. Rangers have their backs to the wall. D-Backs tie it up. We have some baseball now! (The chart has been updated)

Just saw that Kimbrel is the first Phillies reliever EVER to lose consecutive post season games….the last Philly reliever to lose multiple games in post season was….you guessed it…..Mitch ‘Wild Thing’ Williams

It's Kimbrel being Kimbrel.

Harper running over (the already concused) Moreno is not ok in my book. If thats how the Phillies are going to win then i don't even know what to say. Btw he could have avoided that play because if you watch the ball is already going past Moreno. Just brutal
Also it should be noted i'm not calling Harper dirty just completely reckless.
-
Was that an intentional collision? Harper gets up and checks on him, stands next him, and looks worried, as opposed to just getting up and walking away. I’m not standing up for him, and I didn’t see the play live, only in the provided clip. To me, it looks like Moreno dives in his direction before the collision. I hope he’s okay, because he took a bad hit in the previous game that caused him to leave the game.
-
The ball took Moreno into Harper, neither tried to have a collision, Harper checked on him BEFORE touching home plate,which he missed.
The DBacks didn't show any reaction to what happened, that kind of shows it's not anything to get upset over. -

A bit of a over reaction on my part, of course Harper didn't do it on purpose i never said or thought that, i just thought at the time it was reckless, but you guys are absolutely right the Diamondbacks made no complaints about the play. Harper plays really hard I just felt bad for Moreno and let my emotions get the better of me. Again apologies.
-
Schwarber with another home run, the guy is unstoppable. Phillies look scary tonight.
-
Harper with a home run as well and it's 4-0 Phillies

No apology necessary
