It's going to be three games. Not nearly as nervewracking as it could have been a couple of weeks ago, but winning the series is still important.
I didn't see a thread, so I'm starting one quickly - sorry for the lack of information.
Discuss.

Lets score ten here, so we feel comfortable putting Kikuchi in?

I wanted that Vladdy ball down the line to be fair so we could see the exit velocity … and because it would have been a hit, too, of course.

Merryweather has five pitches so far - why are we warming up the pen?

This is the worst broadcast I've ever heard in my life at any level of sports.

Why are they talking about Odor/Bautista from like a decade ago and seemingly being unaware of the Bat Flip which led to the entire thing? Why are they now talking to a rookie on split screen who has played like 10 games?

One hell of an interview, too. Henderson plays hard, always makes an impact, gives 100%, is always playing 100% in order to make a hard impact, impacts hard at 100% into plays, and plays impacts 100% impacts plays.

The only reason they're giving Kukuchi so many chances to fail consistently time and time again --is because the price tag and commitment given to him.

IDK if it's incompetence, idiocy or politically motivated to keep sending Kikuchi out there..

Hoping this is the last meaningful moment of a game that Kikuchi pitches in this season. Looks like he's about to cost another one.

I would say it has more to do with the fact that their high minors depth is **** and they traded Castillo away for a backup utility player who they don't play. They literally have nobody to throw in these games of any kind of quality.

So I guess we're tanking for the #3 WC by letting the Orioles tee off of Kikuchi.
