As I watched the game, I couldn't help myself thinking how DeShields would have not made any of thoseThe Rays put together one of the greatest team defensive performances I’ve ever seen last night.
They straight up robbed 7 hits with spectacular defensive plays both in the outfield and on the infield.
For the series the Astros have THIRTEEN balls hit with an expected batting average of .500+ that have gone for outs.
There has been some good baseball in the LCS. The Braves probably have the edge in game 7 because of the pitching situation. I am looking forward to it. The ALCS was a classic
Brett Phillips running away from his teammates mobbing him while airplaning (and one going tumbling away after they dived in an attempt to tackle him) was utterly absurd and hilarious. Not a single Ray was at home plate to greet the guy that actually scored the game winner.This World Series has gotten very good indeed!
Brett Phillips tying it up with 2 outs and 2 strikes? That's like Michael Martinez coming through in the clutch!
And the sheer luck of 2 Dodger errors allowing Arozarena to score after falling to the ground?
TB was absolutely depleted and in no position to win an extra inning game. Just an astonishing turn of events.
Holy shit Justin Turner tests positive for COVID and gets yanked mid game?
How the fuck does that happen?
In a bubble no less where literally no one else has tested positive. I wouldn’t be surprised if it ends up being a false positive.
I didn’t agree with the decision at the time. We will never know what happened if he had stayed in there. But, the Rays needed to score more than one run to expect to win IMOWhen push comes to shove, Cashs' decision to pull Snell last night was asinine. Stats can't read the moment
and the human element.
