2025 Postseason Thread

[Eris]

It’s too bad. I would have loved to see the Phillies beat the Dodgers. It was a brain freeze. Watching the replay, Realmuto was pointing to first base.

Brock Stewart moves on.

[Permanent Twins Fan]

Wow, you got to feel for Kerkering on that one. The Dodgers keep finding a way to win one way or another. I thought for a bit the Phillies could pull of the win. I'm cheering for whoever wins between the Brewers and Cubs to beat the Dodgers.

So long as you're eating it, and not me, that sounds good.

All of these supposed Brewers fans here and no one posting about the game?

That green quadrant in the graphic posted about payroll/wins seems to be pretty accurate.

Pfft, that green quadrant will never win the WAR/$ spent title, which everyone knows is the real prize

Big strikeout for Aaron Ashby

[Vanimal46]

Aaron Ashby is Andy Ashby's kid, right?

[Permanent Twins Fan]

That might come back to bite the Cubs. The Brewers aren't shut out often.

DODGERS WERE THE 3 SEED  -   AND GET HOME FIELD IF CUBBIES WIN

I figured the last name was too uncommon there to not be related. I remember Andy Ashby being really good in the steroid era

Back handed complement?

Not intentional. He was an all star in 1998 and 1999

I don’t think he’s ever resurfaced publicly, although he got a ws ring in 2016

[Vanimal46]

Game 5 on the way. And I’m taking the Cubbies

The Phillies pitcher obviously panicked but he never should have looked towards home plate. There were 2 effing outs! The only direction he should have looked at is 1B 

And they just had a meeting on the mound prior to facing the hitter , I dont get it , there had to be a conversation of how many outs there was and the play should have made at first,  I guess they didn't anticipate a ball being hit to the mound and after he bobbled it he threw to the nearest person and that was home plate ...

Pure choke , falvey will be call Philadelphia and see if we can pry him away , he'd fit right in with our pitchers unable to throw to a base ...

I guess that was controversial for Mike to disagree that a pitcher should know how many outs there are in an inning. 

[Blyleven2011]

Not looking good for the brewers tonight , I guess when your backs are to the wall and facing elimination your adrenaline is peaked , cubbies are executing  ...

Game 5 will be all pressure  so adrenaline on both sides , should be quite a game  ...

I'm cheering for the Brewers in the NLDS, but if the Cubs win, I will still cheer for them over the Dodgers.

[Blyleven2011]

Should be a good high pressure game tonight  , pitcher friendly park ,  Kirby and skubal  ,  wouldn't be surprised if the game is won by a difference of 1 run ...

Win or go home , come on Seattle  ...

[Blyleven2011]

A manufactured run , hit a double  , steal third and a sac fly deep brings him home off skubal  , Seattle will be doing this all night , at least they better ....

I'd like to see the AL Central get some post season respect and move on.

Yeah , but they got that last year when 3 teams from central made the playoffs  ...

Seattle has never been there or I would be rooting for a AL central team ,

Alo rooting for Milwaukee  , they've been there in 1982 but lost to St Louis  ....

[Parfigliano]

TC could use a C that throws like that.  I'd take all the HR too.
