Game 1 1988?

That’s right. I look at that caption and can hear Brown/Arnold reading it.

First 4/5 innings I thought he was good. Maybe he has issues 3rd time thru the order. 

I'm thinking he has a date or something and wants to get this game over. I mean, being up two runs, I'm fine with a big strike zone now, but this is a bit nuts.

Jesus, 3 K's and 20 foot grounder. Cowser needs to get this turned around soon. 

It takes him time to adjust to each new level.

this trend of hibernating bats....no add on runs...could bite us tonight...

You are Chicken Little Personified. And I love it.

Somebody for the 8th is priority number one. If Elias can only do one thing it better be that. I don't know what Cano did to have the start he did this year but this is not the same guy. 

I think Fuji is the man for the 8th.

I stand by that I wouldn't trade Felix for literally anyone in baseball. You can't tell me Acuna or Judge impact a must-win game more than Felix.

That guy on the Angels has a pretty big impact on a lot of games.

It seems to me they have been worse this year than any I can remember.  It is like they are trying to get robo umps.  

For the first half of the game he seemed pretty good.  Then he seemed to lose it a bit. 

[Tony-OH]

At least it only took Bautista 6 pitches to get two outs in the 8th.

Heat. Heat and more heat.

I love Felix but that’s crazy.  Acuña would look pretty freakin’ awesome in Orange and Black.  Or Ohtani.

Oh yeah, I forgot he's the one guy who is maybe an exception. But in a seven-game series against the Braves to win the WS, who would you rather have?

Sometimes it feels like he’s against the Orioles with his jinx attempts. Holy moly.

I often have to change the feed because of this. Not so much because of the jinx (well mostly because of that), but because it’s the lamest thing to be talking about…yet again. Describe the crowd atmosphere, the color of the sky, or just be quiet for a few seconds.

Acuña might go 40/80 this year.

Why do you throw that ?  Come on. 

[Malike]

Buckle up.
