I have not watched a baseball this year that did not involve my wife's team (the soon to be Guardians) or my father-in-laws team (Pirates). Someone tell me a good team to root for.

I found a team...

Spoiler:

An Angel Hernandez behind the plate game. This is going to be one of those nights for one of these teams.

If there was a game the Giants were going to drop, this probably wasn't the best one.

That was a terrible call. Rays safe on that steal in the 10th

Red Sox bailed themselves and baseball out of a jam.

This guy has some great breakdowns, since the announcers often have no idea what they're talking about.

Yeah I saw posted on Twitter the set of rules. If the fielder had possession and then threw it out, it's bases given from time of out of play. But since he didn't field it, it's from time of pitch. Just dumb luck that basically a fielding error saves a run and probably wins the game. f*ck Boston.

Did the wind at Dodger Stadium almost blow Scherzer off the mound?

DAMMIT TAMPA I WAS ROOTING FOR YOU

Please God, don't leave me with a Boston/Houston ALCS.

Good grief, Candlestick weather moved down to Chavez Ravine.

Edit: It's saying something about my anxiety about this series that I'm playing Phasmophobia to relax.

B-CRAW robs Betts!

I'm listening to the radio broadcast, and is there just some insane lady at Dodger Stadium screaming constantly?

I'm retroactively wondering if I should have asked around for random screaming ladies when I was in Hollywood back in June. I'd probably would have been disappointed and/or terrified.

My other regret about this series is that actor extraordinaire and Dodger's uber fan actor Norman Lloyd didn't live to see this series despite dying at age 108.

Edit: There is garbage being blown onto the field at Dodger Stadium. Again, that was a Candlestick thing.

Edit 2: Good wind. *patpat*

Daytime playoff baseball is awesome.

But some on Sox

It was today!

...except I missed 2 hours in a meeting.

...and no adult beverages.

Baseball gets to tap dance around the appropriateness of "The Chop" for another series.

At least we get one game 5

After tomorrow night's going to be a nightmare for baseball, TBS, and Fox. The winner of Game 5's going to play in a stadium where tens of thousands of fans regularly make a racist gesture. Oh, and in the other bracket we have the Boston Apple Watches taking on the Houston Drums.

Well in the unfortunate event its the Dodgers who advance, Blake Treinen should fit in fine then.

How are the Giants the most likable team this postseason?

It's unfathomable.

I would like the Braves if it weren't for everyone about the Braves other than the players and management. I like those people.

Not gonna lie, this is as electric in SF as the three World Series.

Hearts are going to get absolutely obliterated tonight.

I got an early meeting in the morning on the East coast, someone win please.

Atlanta's enjoying both teams potentially burning through starters in relief.

What a game...

f*cking bullsh*t call!
