Proud2BAHoosier Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 Tanaka pitched great as well, very impressed. If you told me he would go 6 and give up only 2 runs, I'm happy. Bird getting thrown out at home made the difference, although he did hit a HR in the 9th. Maybe the next time the Yanks face Keuchel, they need to use their golf clubs. Go Yankees......

FritzIam4IU Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 Quintana is starting tonight for the Cubs and Lester is pitching game 2. Also, Corey Seager is not on the NLCS roster for the Dodgers as he is hurt. Let's go Cubs!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanchez "catches" the ball and he can stick it to Altuve. Series shifts to NY so we shall see. The yanks were down 2 to Cleveland and came back, so we shall see how the youngsters do.

Long way from over, no home team had lost yet. Yanks will be tough to beat in the Bronx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoosiertildeath Posted October 16, 2017 Report Share Posted October 16, 2017 I still think My Beloved Dodgers will never win a World Series with Dave Roberts as their MANAGER 1 Should the Dodgers actually win the World Series while Roberts is their MANAGER , I think it would be IN SPITE OF DAVE ROBERTS , NOT BECAUSE OF DAVE ROBERTS !! I think that Magic Johnson and the other Dodger OWNERS have put together a roster of players that ( MAYBE) may be good enough to overcame DAVE ROBERT"S silly game decisions !! If you were a Dodger Fan and Followed the DODGERS Like I have since 1948 , you would understand WHY I AM SAYING THIS !!! P.S. I hate the [Censured] yankees !! Go Houston !! Beat those Damned yankees !!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We greatly overrate the importance of what move a manager in a game IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would add not great managing during the playoffs as well...mainly in regards to the bullpen usage...although he has had limited options. I like Maddon, but the way he uses relievers frustrates me often in postseason. I hope Cubs address pitching during offseason. I am shocked at how anemic the offense has been for the most part the past couple weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud2BAHoosier Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Well my beloved Yankees, (sorry HTD), squared the series at 2 games apiece. They face Keuchel tonight in a re-match. I'm hoping the hitters are patient and don't swing at pitches down around their ankles. He's due to have a bad game, maybe in front of a hostile crowd??? I feel tonight's game is crucial if the Yanks are to be successful in moving on to the World Series. I know Girardi gets a lot of flak for some of his "overthinking" managerial decisions, but he should get MOY for what he's accomplished with this group of players.
