With the forecast of rain in Atlanta, can't the commissioner just order that the roof be closed?

We'll live our entire lives and not see a game as good as that again.

Just googled it and found it. I posted this early in the game:

"So tired of watching a whole lot of NOTHING at the plate"

It looks like that was maybe a couple minutes before Yuli knocked that game into chaos.

Also forgot about "Dilly Dilly"

Based on McTaggarts article is sounds like we are going to see the Yordan, Tucker, Brantley outfield.

Quote:

The Astros' most dangerous hitter will be in the lineup in left field at Truist Park for Game 3 of the Fall Classic on Friday night, weather permitting. Even with a pitcher hitting ninth in the lineup, Houston will still have its seven most potent batters in the lineup, along with catcher Martn Maldonado. By starting Alvarez in left field, Astros manager Dusty Baker would move Michael Brantley from left to right, and Kyle Tucker from right to center.


Quote:

Tucker, a Gold Glove Award finalist in right field the last two years, is a competent center fielder, but not as good as he is in right. Brantley's arm isn't as good as Tucker's from right field, but Houston's outfield coach Gary Pettis said the Astros won't suffer a drop-off defensively.

"We just try to put them in a position where the batter is most likely going to hit the ball, I think Alvarez, Tucker and Brantley will be just fine out there," Pettis said.

Please don't I have to much to do today and don't have time to give your work the time and respect it needs.

Wasn't there a team a few years ago that had a defensive liability in the outfield, so thy flipped the LF and RF based on who was at bat to limit the exposure of the bad fielder? The Astros don't have that extreme of a liability, but all this talk has triggered a memory that I can't place.

Three pages and one half inning in and we had our first Nuke sighting. "Over before it started". And 6 idiots starred it. Nice.

That was the "live ball" postseason. Lot of home runs that would not have made it out of the park today. Pitchers couldn't grip well either. Great spectacle.

Damn I am glad I didn't know about this thread back then! I was insufferable on our family group text... "We're not going to score more than 2 runs against Kershaw" or something similar, only to see Yuli smash that HR and tie the game an inning or two later.

I made one response to an Amazon link to a book called "He Won't Pull Out of his Daughter's Sexy Friends, Part 1: He Won't Pull Out!" and one post about the gambler's
fallacy. Showed much restraint! Was probably drunk and/or reading He Won't Pull Out of his Daughter's Sexy Friends, Part 1: He Won't Pull Out!

Hopefully tonight's game is just as epic/memorable for Astros fans, so that in 5 years when we look this thread up again for a trip down memory lane, we get to revisit this little nugget.

It's not like Joc is setting the world on fire for atl in right. It seemed like he's out of position on almost every ball. Every ball that didn't just squirt through the infield was either a double or triple in the first two games.

That game thread was amazing. The bleeding and self immolation in the first. Then the first comeback. Then the second round of carnage. Then the second comeback with Rally Kate, a bunch of Asian chicks and Kates titties. Then the George misplay in CF. And then the epic Morrow sequence where he gives up 2 HRs and a double in 8 pitches. Then we cough up the three run lead in the 9th. Every reliever on both teams gets whacked except for Giles and he wasn't being used because he was so bad. 400 plus pitches and Ken Giles got locked in the trunk of a '74 Caddy Coupe De Ville never to be seen again.

Man I completely had forgotten big Luke was the first man up from the bullpen (arm barn) that game.

Is that why it's called the arm barn?
