2016 MLB Postseason Thread

They are committed to being on that field when the storm hits.

 

I'll take it tonight. Missed the first because of the early start here in Central America. Caught innings 2 and 3, went back to work and flew for two hours and then caught 8 and 9 at home.

 

Weird note, at least to me: The Cubs have played 12 postseason games. They have not scored between two and four runs. They won the opener 1-0, since then they have been shut out three times, scored 5+ eight times and scored 8+ three times.

 

Don't you mean Wintrust? I swear if Ricketts could, he'd change the name of the park. He's changed about everything else.

 

A thought I just had:

Can you imagine what it would be like if Harry Caray had to say "Kyle Schwarber?"

 

Buck has his detractors, at times on merit, but the Cubs lovefest is getting a bit over the top. Still has a way to go to top Costas, though.

Is there enough beer in Wrigleyville for a three-day bender?

 

Early forecast for Friday is wind blowing out at 35 mph.

 

In 5 fewer years as well.

 

Weather.com has it at 20, but holy shit.

 

Jesus Christ, that game could be 12 hours long, or at least give that Phillies-Blue Jays shit show from 1993 (15-14 Toronto in Game 4 and it still only took 4:14 to play) a run for its money.

 

Even with the kings of multiple reliever innings, Bochy and Baker, at home, it seemed long, especially for the score. Extra-long commercial breaks?
