Rye Miles #13621 Posted October 27, 2023 Posted October 27, 2023 Playing in Texas and George W is throwing out the ceremonial first pitch. Remember after 9-11 when he threw the first pitch? Should be a good series! PLAY BALL!!!
Cypress Sun Posted October 27, 2023 Posted October 27, 2023 Hope it's a good World Series. Go Rangers!
Rye Miles #13621 Posted October 28, 2023 Author Posted October 28, 2023 Well W bounced it in but he looks pretty darn good for 77! Go Rangers, they’ve never won World Series!
Subdeacon Joe Posted October 28, 2023 Posted October 28, 2023 I was a bit behind and missed the first inning and a half. But I think that the onion rings, tortilla chips, fried drumsticks, and hush puppies will be worth it. How was the Anthem? And I see I missed the wrong team scoring first.
Cypress Sun Posted October 28, 2023 Posted October 28, 2023 Wow! Garcia does it again! Good game tonight with some good defensive plays. One down, three to go.

Good game though. I fell asleep when Arizona was ahead 5-3. Saw the highlights this morning!

Blackwater 53393 Posted October 28, 2023 Posted October 28, 2023 This was a very well played game!! Good pitching, great defense, lots of action, and the umpires were on it! I’d like to see six more games like last night’s!!

Yer right though, other than a couple of (imo) questionable strike calls and one overturn(?), a well officiated game, some spectacular defensive plays and an overall good game of baseball. Looking forward to tonight.
J-BAR #18287 Posted October 29, 2023 Posted October 29, 2023 A 7 game series is fine with me. More baseball!!

Surely you jest! 7-1 is a much better game than tying it up in the 7th inning and then a walk off in the 9th? I guess if you’re a Diamondback fan. Whoops 9-1 it’s a blowout!!

Oh, I don't know if Joe likes being called Shirley or not...it is near Halloween though.
Subdeacon Joe Posted October 29, 2023 Posted October 29, 2023 Yep! A much better game! At least, the outcome. I'll give you that an 11 inning first game, with a walk off is a more exciting game. But I didn't care for the outcome. Just now, Cypress Sun said: , I don't know if Joe likes being called Shirley or not...it is near Halloween though Hey, big boy!
Blackwater 53393 Posted October 29, 2023 Posted October 29, 2023 Didn’t get to see the game tonight. I had a really good friend who threw a great Halloween party tonight. A bunch of my music friends and fans of our band and others that we sit in with! Tons of great food, lots of great costumes, top notch music with many guest performers and our hosts know how to party!! Sounds like a yawner of a game to me!!
Calamity Kris Posted October 29, 2023 Posted October 29, 2023 We went to bed in the middle of the 8th. I see we didn't miss much. Well, we're up for a 7 game series.
Cypress Sun Posted October 29, 2023 Posted October 29, 2023 On the game last night...I found the three idiot kids dressed in the banana costumes to be VERY annoying and distracting. I just enjoy watching a baseball game, not three teenage idiots with zero respect for the game. The kids parent or grandparent, whoever was there with them, shares just as much blame. $6,000 a seat to act like punks...
Subdeacon Joe Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Pretty darned good game tonight! Tons of good defensive plays, just what I like to see. At the moment the wrong team is ahead, but still, a fantastic game.
Cowtown Scout, SASS #53540 L Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Well your half right - GO Rangers
Subdeacon Joe Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Nope.... just can't go for a Texas team. One heck of a double play to end the 8th!
Rye Miles #13621 Posted October 31, 2023 Author Posted October 31, 2023 Texas wins! Series now 2-1 Good game !!
Cypress Sun Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Boy, a ton of great defensive plays tonight by both teams. Pretty good game overall too. Rangers 2 wins, 2 to go. Go Rangers!
Blackwater 53393 Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 I hope Garcia is okay! One helluva throw to make that play at the plate!! Four more games like that would not make me unhappy!! Go Rangers!

Four more games like that would not make me unhappy!! Go Rangers! If Garcia is injured, that is a huge blow for the Rangers. That was one great throw to home, on target and in time. Helped that the runner didn't bother to look at the third base coach though...still a big out though and no run scored. Go Rangers!
J-BAR #18287 Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 I shuttled between the WS and the Lions-Raiders. Both games had interesting moments.
Subdeacon Joe Posted November 1, 2023 Posted November 1, 2023 Hmmm.....not looking good for the right team....

Boy, it sure got out of hand quickly. Only one problem with jumping out to an early lead...there's still 6.5 innings left.

Cypress Sun Posted November 1, 2023 Posted November 1, 2023 One good thing Joe...Waldo has been found.
Subdeacon Joe Posted November 1, 2023 Posted November 1, 2023 At least the D-Backs made a game of it. Great job in the 8th. Well, after tomorrow it will be 3-2.
