We all know last night's strike zone was bad, but turns out it was really bad https://twitter.com/UmpireAuditor/status/1715256719125934212?s=20 edit: this goes for both sides, save your takes shyduck fucked around with this message at 16:14 on Oct 20, 2023 |

I think the worst call made all night was when The Phillies decided to pitch to Ketel Marte. How's that on the ump

Ryne Stanek threw one pitch, got two outs and the W and I'm wondering: why don't more pitchers simply do this?

I had the feeling the Rangers bullpen would give me an almost Game 6 2011 WS-level dick punch at some point this postseason the deeper they went in the playoffs and it was still worse than what I braced myself for. Sports just doesn’t feel worth it sometimes.

I think Eovaldi gives the Rangers a good chance in game 6 but idk what they do if it gets to game 7. Montgomery on 3 days rest? Give Scherzer another shot? Or the most cursed option, a bullpen game?

Scherzer's a future Hall of Famer so of course he gets the start.

I never have, and I never will. If you believe there are baseball gods (and anyone who doesn't is a fuckin fool) then why would you tempt everything

I don’t think any us would get invested in spots if we didn’t have some deep-seated desire for low-stakes grief.

I don't put too much stock in "touchin the trophy" stuff unless it's like, you pick up the whole goddamn thing and dance around with it. Put me in a similar situation, I'd touch the trophy. Might be the closest I ever get to the real thing.

Who was it who posted “I can’t believe the Rangers are going to win the World Series” late in G6 in 2011? Everyone jumped all over them in the moment, but it was too late. I think about that maybe every couple of months, in disbelief anyone could watch sports and say such a thing.

That was freaking... just unbelievable. This is a chance to either repeat or overcome the 2019 WS history right here. Ofc I'm rooting for the latter, but... I've already accepted that the Phillies will be beating whoever wins the Battle of Texas, October 2023, so... Let the chips fall where they may.

the only way for the rangers to win this series now is for it to become the second in history with no home wins so at least the Astros will make history yet again in that case  (that'd hurt more than if the Rangers had won tonight)

I hate the Astros, but I refuse to use the stupid cheating thing as cheap ammo. It’s the fans who suck poo poo. Calling in to Waco sports talk radio circa 2005 and asserting their supremacy in the state like they’d won anything at all at that point in history.
