Nifty 4-6 twin killing. Let's go Mets! But mostly screw the Phillies.
Loved the shot of the eight year old Mets fan yelling at the Phillies.
Go figure. Stanek with the shut down 9th inning.
How's that not interference?
Edit: Machado running into the grass to get in the throwing lane.

I can't root for the Dodgers, but god I hate Machado.
Dodgers screwing up..I like it
Yeah Machado is not likable .. but LA is worse

It's the padres year
Machado should have been out
But I was very glad to see Rojas screw up that double play

Nuked. Padres came to destroy the evil west coast empire and I am absolutely here for it.
Yeah just rewatched … Machado was over on the grass.. he should have been out. not sure why LA didn't ask for that to be reviewed ? Maybe not reviewable?AgRyan04 said:

Anyway.. screw LA
These guys are saying there are no restrictions on running in the basepath there? Not sure I believe that.
The might be the best collection of LDS games we've ever had… from every series

I know the rules are weird about when the baseline is established and it's not until making a play on the runner. So maybe that's why? Not sure. All I know is that should, based on common sense, be an out.
Yeah, there's an "intentionally interfering with a thrown ball" rule IIRC. Unsure what the standard for that is but no call, umpire discussion, or challenge certainly makes it seem like it wasnt obvious to anyone. Dave Roberts might have just been asleep though since he already won the regular season pennant again.

It's important that a base path only exists when a fielder is attempting to make a tag. At all other times there is no base path (no such thing) and in fact the runner is free (at his peril) to run pretty much anywhere he wishes. There are limits to this (see Rule 5.09(b)(10) regarding "making a travesty of the game"); however, the central point remains: the base runner creates his own base path.

What a pick!
Gotta love postseason baseball. Yesterday the Cle-Det game goes scoreless into the 9th inning. This game has 11 runs thru 2 1/3, and nothing since.
Padres win
That was a fun game.
That was a fun game.
Go Friars!
Big shoutout to the Dodgers' pitching staff holding Tatis under .600 for the series so far.
Don't see that very often… 10 runs in back to back frames and then a 6 inning shutout to close by both teams
Anybody think Robertson gets canned if the Dodgers lose tonight?
I think both NLDS end tonight
Four games today!
Final: Guardians 0 - Tigers 3 (Det leads the series 2-1, Cle has been shutout in back to back games)
Final: Phillies 1 - Amazins 4 (NYM win the series 3-1)
Final: Damn Yankees 3 - Royals 2 (NYY leads the series 2-1)
Final: Effin' Dodgers 8 - Friars 0 (Series tied at 2-2)
Final: Guardians 0 - Tigers 3 (Det leads the series 2-1, Cle has been shutout in back to back games)
Final: Phillies 1 - Amazins 4 (NYM win the series 3-1)
Final: Damn Yankees 3 - Royals 2 (NYY leads the series 2-1)
Final: Effin' Dodgers 8 - Friars 0 (Series tied at 2-2)

I can see the Dodgers blowing it again tonight.
I think the Phillies hang on and put up a good fight in Phillies for game 5.
I really think the Phils win this series but I'm feeling a Cleveland/San Diego showdown in the WS.

I can't see it but I do think it's one of those damned if you do damned if you don't deals. Clearly they have underperformed in the post season relative to regular season and payroll but man it's tough to fire someone with that track record (1 WS title, 3 WS appearances, 1st in division 8 of 9 years), even if you think they've underperformed in the post season...Wabs said:

he'll look extremely weak here if they lose after he complains about Machado to the media but won't even leave the dugout to argue interference
two things can be true at the same time
machado could have been absolutely called out for interference. could have is the key - being that it's a judgement call by the umps.
it's was a very very smart baserunning move - given that he was going to not make it on time to avoid the force out. so it's either an automatic out and a potential double play OR a fast-moving judgement call interference call and the batter-runner makes it safely to first.

I was very surprised that Robertson didn't come out and argue about that call. Machado clearly ran out of the baseline. He was clearly in the grass. I don't blame him for it - it was a very smart play. But why wouldn't Robertson argue it when it was so obvious?
The last name of the Dodgers Manager is Roberts not Robertson.
The Tigers are playing with house money right now. I keep expecting them to fall apart but they just haven't done it yet. My Indians to the WS prediction may be trash.

Wild card teams dominating again this postseason!
The MLB playoffs have definitely turned into a "who is hottest at the end of the season", rather than a "who was the best over the whole season"
Yup. However, the Rangers last year just barely limped into the playoffs after blowing the AL West title and went on an improbable run to win the title.
