I still hate that they didn’t send kwan with 2 outs

u/wxguy215 | Milwaukee Brewers 7h ago

I love BA calling a game Freddy is pitching.

u/JamesHutchisonReal 7h ago

Mets punching air right now

u/BlazersBeavers | Seattle Mariners 7h ago

why is this on trutv?

u/chickensalad892 | Milwaukee Brewers 8h ago

How is that turf even legal

u/Sharp-Bluejay2267 8h ago

devil rays throwback looks so good

u/Woollybugger1816 8h ago

A whole lot of lollygagging on the base paths tonight by the Rays. 2 balls hit in play with the batter barely even jogging towards first. This is supposed to be when players hustle. Feels like an exhibition game.

They’re up by 3, I think they can relax a little

u/Woollybugger1816 7h ago

It was 0-0 when I wrote that. They can probably afford to relax a little now.

u/ThrottleServic3 | New York Yankees 8h ago

I miss the days where you didn’t need 18 different streaming apps to watch one playoff series

u/Purgieeeee 8h ago

Wondering that myself, wow.

u/Sharp-Bluejay2267 8h ago

As a rays fan, saddly its that we are playing guardians. It was more packed becauase yankees fans were filling out the other seats.

u/SgtCheeseBoy | New York Yankees 9h ago

Why is the Trop so empty? Did the fans realize there was a game today?

u/copperbear00 9h ago

Quick question for those watching the ALCS... are the broadcasters as bad as I think they are? Even the crew before and after the game?

u/Woollybugger1816 8h ago

It's the same garbage on Fox for the NLCS.

u/SmirknSwap Human Verified 9h ago
