I'm gonna use this from now on.

Need some trades. Please bring me some trades.

I was thinking "James Kaprielian" while reading this entire thing.

My guess is that Grisham’s decision to accept the qualifying offer does not bode well for Jasson Domínguez’s future with the Yankees.

Whole Camels.

Case closed.

1) I saw some of the clips of the pitches in question, these boys guilty as hell 2) Congratulations to MLB for officially joining the NBA in putting on a hot dog suit and asking "We're trying to figure out how this happened"

Probably about the best I could’ve done on this one. ⚾️ Immaculate Grid 951 9/9: Rarity: 14 IMMACULATE! 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 ➡️ See my grid: www.sports-reference.com/immaculate-g...

Good work, NYC. 🫡

Yoshinobu Yamamoto threw 130 pitches across his two consecutive days pitching, which appears to be the most ever in a postseason series for the years that we have pitch count data. The previous high was (as you might have guessed) Randy Johnson's 121 in the final two games of the 2001 WS.

I'm pretty sure tonight's game featured the 9th "golden pitch" situation in MLB history, where either team could have won the World Series on that given pitch.

Will Smith has won the World Series 6 years in a row

I mean……I don’t think I’ll ever see a baseball game better than that.

apologies for sharing from the everything site, but I wanted to recognize one of our greatest posters

It seems like this will give Girardi more games for next season, which is a good thing. I have really enjoyed hearing him on the broadcasts.

World Series Starting Pitcher Isn't Batting 9th Babe Ruth 1918 Gm 4 BOS vs CHC (6th) Zack Greinke 2021 Gm 4 HOU at ATL (8th) Shohei Ohtani 2025 Gm 4 LAD vs TOR (1st)

Alright, let's see if I phrase this the right way. Which World Series victory in your lifetime – NOT featuring your favorite team – brought you the most joy? (For me I think it's 2019 Nationals with 2016 Cubs close behind.)

Shohei has the 13th game ever with 4 intentional walks by one player, and the first in the postseason.

Extra innings the way they should be played.

Shohei Ohtani hits 2 HRs and 2 2Bs tonight. For most players, this would be the greatest game of their life. For him, this doesn't come close to matching what he did in a game last week.

I have never seen THAT on a baseball field.

Verlander in that game: 5 innings, 7 runs Reyes in that game: 8 innings, 2 runs

Who was the last truly *horrible* manager? Like, unequivocally terrible? (My mind often goes to Valentine on the 2012 Red Sox)

I'm always on Rodón velo-watch because he's historically had a way of ramping up his outings unlike pretty much any other pitcher in the league. But his max velo has definitely been slipping and I'm not surprised there was something going on.

Thanks to mlb radio, more people know what "oppo taco" means than who the president is

Yoshinobu Yamamoto! 9 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 BB, 7 K 111 pitches, 81 strikes in a 5-1 win Dodgers lead the Brewers 2-0 in the NLCS MLB's first complete game in the postseason since Justin Verlander in Game 2 of the 2017 ALCS (Astros vs Yankees) There were 668 postseason starts between complete games!

Dave Roberts has been staring at White Sox pitching section of the 2005 ALCS B-Ref page and thinking... "YOU KNOW WHAT, MAYBE"

Closer Roki 👁️👁️

Through the pre-Championship Series games, starters pitching a "normal length" (6 innings, for these purposes) still tracking around where it's been the past decade, despite plenty of prominent bullpen games.

Something about the 2025 MLB season that I want to make note of. It's the first year since 2010 that did not include a pitch thrown by Jordan Lyles.

Remember Jasson Domínguez?

A decently fun fact

I love the internet.

Yankees Biggest Comeback Wins in Postseason 6 1996 WS Gm 4 at ATL (6-0 in 6th, won 8-6 in 10) 5 1997 ALDS Gm 1 vs CLE (5-0 in 2nd, won 8-6) 5 2010 ALCS Gm 1 at TEX (5-0 in 7th, won 6-5) 5 2025 ALDS Gm 3 vs TOR (6-1 in 3rd, won 9-6)

Last three pitches from Williams to Varsho were at 97, which is as hard as he's been throwing all year.

🎷🎷🎷

Love the Timmy Hill Hop.

👀

Much was made of the Yankees' struggles against Gausman and Yesavage's splitters last week, and I'd expect a similar attack from Bieber tonight. He started throwing the kick-change this year, which in terms of movement profile is basically another splitter.
