I’m going back to watching Gibson’s pinch hit HR in’88.

that was the most fun/intense/emotional WS game I can recall since (that wasn’t an elimination game).

wow. God I love baseball.

except the fucking Reds. Fucking losers.

2020 Rays are like the 2002 Buckeyes.

They thrive on close and late.

so much fun. Amazing.

Yeah the Gibson homerun was classic, but I don't remember the details of the entire game. Last night was back and forth for 9 innings, awesome game to watch.

It wasn't back and forth like last night. Hell, I don't think any WS game ever has been. Pretty sure I saw/heard they set a record for scoring in consecutive half innings last night.

The Gibson HR game was, first of all, a game 1. It was also a more traditional game in that the Dodgers trailed up until they didn't (2 outs bottom 9 walk off).

Last night was the craziest back and forth of momentum and plays I can recall in watching a World Series.

Glasnow vs. Kershaw ....... I like the Rays chances tonight

 

[desert_buckeye]

Think I jinxed the kid ... not a good start

 

[OHSportsFan]

Man, these two teams throw heavyweight punches.

 

[Jaxbuck]

The Rays just will not quit. So much fun.

 

[desert_buckeye]

Yep, they are never out of a game it seems

 

[desert_buckeye]

They didn’t overturn the dodger guy sliding in at second they weren’t going to overturn that

 

[brodybuck21]

Dodgers offense is just relentless. Especially with 2 outs

 

[OHSportsFan]

Rays missed their chance in the 8th.

 

[desert_buckeye]

Rays missed their chance in the 8th.

They missed their best chance in the 4th, 1st and 3rd nobody out and got nothing but a face full of dirt and helmet

Rays gonna lose this in a case of over managing. Snell gives up a 1 out base hit in the 6th.....73 pitches.....Cash pulls him. Double.....Wild pitch, tie game. Fielders choice then gives the dodgers a 2–1 lead.

 

[OHSportsFan]

Good lord, managers need to get back to having a pair and trusting their aces to do ace things.

5 1/3, 73 pitches, 2 hits, 9ks...pulled.
