This is probably a discussion for a separate thread but it's interesting.

Then how did the White Sox manage to be the worst team in baseball when they had the best pitcher in baseball in Sale?

Are you debating the value of the starting pitcher or how baseball is not a "team game"?

Baseball may be a series of individual contests but how those interact with each other, and how you design that interaction, is the heart of the game.

But moving on...

Tonight should be a great game.

And in another thread debating this, y'all ought to define "team game" before debating which sport is the most "team game." Y'all are working with different definitions.

I'm already nauseated by Ernie Johnson's voice.

I hate you TBS.

That TBS broadcast is brutal. Lot of dead air and awkward silences.

Don't really have any kind of attachment to either of these teams, but I want the Rockies to win for some reason. Maybe just because I wanna see a crazy game.

D Backs bring in their assumed game 1 starter in the 5th inning of the wild card game. Has to make the Dodgers happy

Archie Bradley with a 2 out TRIPLE to give zona. A 3 run lead

What a decision to keep the pitcher to hit

He must be tired from legging out that triple. He gave up Back to back bombs for the Rockies in the 8th.

8-7 Diamondbacks Top 8

If you watch the E:60 piece on Johnson you will have nothing but immense respect for the man.

It's not the man, it's his try-hard announcer voice.

I don't watch the NBA but I remember his dad as a pitcher and announcer with the Braves. I had no thoughts one way or another about Ernie Johnson but if you watch this short clip from the E:60 episode I'm not sure how you can't admire the man.

The decision was about pitching, no? Bring him in for an out in 7 and then go in the 8th. The decision was to leave the men on base with a 1 run lead.

Ironically, he gave the runs back in the inning he was "being saved" for.

Baseball done baseball'd all over itself.

I think the nats are going to even it up tonight. Would be another hugely disappointing postseason for them if they can't.

So this is what an ace is supposed to look like pitching against the Yankees.
