He's too paid to not be in the lineup! :v:

I will be disappointed but not shocked if he's in the lineup for Game 2.

Whenever I'm put to the test, I'm gonna ace it.

We'll probably also see Joe Nathan attempt to close a game in the playoffs.

I don't know, they took a pretty commanding 4-3 lead in the World Series back in 1985.

But that's the one they didn't win! Obviously it has to be done the exact same way.

They went 3-0 vs the Yankees in the '80 ALCS. They never had the lead in that WS against Philly.

Well, I guess being up 11-0 in a seventh game felt about as good as a proper series lead, but I'm talking about having a lead with a series not yet finished.

So if the Angels lose the series is that bad call on a check swing gonna be the thing they hold onto for decades?

The Angels were pissed (and probably still are) at AJ Pierzynski for rooking them out of a playoff game.

Kc has a post season win streak that is still alive from the eighties this has to be a record.

we criticize joe buck (and rightfully so), but he's orders of magnitudes better than ernie johnson

False.

Ernie Johnson doesn't continually over-sell the game you're already watching.
