Remember the little girl who got drilled with the foul ball? https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/01/sports/baseball/yankee-stadium-netting-foul-ball.html?smid=tw-nytsports&smtyp=cur&_r=1 quote:In his recollection of the episode, the father, Geoffrey Jacobson, described the horror of walking into a hospital room to find his daughter, who will turn 2 this week, connected to tubes and machines. Her eyes were swollen shut, she had multiple facial fractures — including those of her orbital bone and nose — and doctors were monitoring the bleeding on her brain, fearing that it might lead to seizures.

I don't know anything other than what's in the story. They still don't know if she'll need facial surgery or if her vision will ever recover

patonthebach posted:They seem the most complete team second to only the Cleveland team in the AL. I like their rotation over yankees/twins/astros. The Astros have a really strong rotation if McCullers can find his old form. Unfortunately his final start of the season didn't show that. Still, Verlander/Keuchel is as potent a top 2 as anyone, especially the way Verlander has pitched in the last three months

I don't know, Peacock AND Morton in the rotation makes me nervous since both have a tendency to run up huge pitch counts I'd honestly be cool with them sharing starts, 4 IP for Peacock and 4 IP for Morton So maybe Verlander, Keuchel, Peacock/Morton, McHugh

So there's been one non-laugher of a game in the divisional playoffs so far, and it probably would have been a laugher if Girardi weren't a tool lol e: awwww poo poo son Hitting coach Alonso Powell, who spent time in Japan with Ichiro, said of Altuve posted:I know Ichiro well, and I never thought I'd say that I would see a better hitter than Ichiro. But three months into the season last year, I made that concession. Intruder fucked around with this message at 08:21 on Oct 7, 2017 |

Getting shut down by Doug Fister tomorrow would be such an Astros thing. I really just want them to not have to use Verlander in a game 5 so he's ready to go for the ALCS e: Also getting in a situation where you have to beat Sale again would be scary. Just finish the sweep plz tia Intruder fucked around with this message at 19:36 on Oct 7, 2017 |

Andy Pettitte lost a complete game in which he gave up 1 run against a guy making his MLB debut who made two total starts before disappearing into the aether while they were in the thick of a playoff hunt and the team finished 1.5 games back of the division (the NL Central was so bad that year) e: also look at these poser Astros fans who don't remember single games from 11 years ago  God I can't believe we didn't win a championship with either our Johnson/Hampton/Reynolds rotation or our Oswalt/Clemens/Pettitte rotation.

I changed my mind, I'm the guy who looks like he might be livestreaming the play but looking at the phone it also looks like maybe a football game is on Morton vs Porcello today, I'm terrified. I don't think we beat Sale again if it comes to it. And even if we do I really don't want to use Verlander again this series Intruder fucked around with this message at 15:29 on Oct 9, 2017 |

Inspector_666 posted:Yeah, I was at a game he was at, and I watched him climb onto the wall next to the Yankee's bullpen, scamper down the netting and grab a ball out of midair that the bullpen catcher had thrown to a girl who he had specifically pointed out. Everybody looked in disgust as he did it then literally ran away. The catcher looked like he wanted to climb up and fight him That's atrocious. I've seen people on twitter defend him saying he gives most of the balls he gets away to kids too

Popete posted:But if the Indians are so terrifying and the Yankees just beat, them what does that make the Yankees? It makes them a team that played better in a five game stretch, which happens in baseball The combination of the Indians starting pitching and bullpen is legit scary. The Yankees have a good bullpen too but their starting pitching isn't (in theory) on the same level as Cleveland

bump_fn posted:i still don't understand how boston beat yankees in the division Red Sox: 22-19 in one run games, 15-3 in extra innings Yankees: 18-26 in one run games, 5-6 in extra innings That's really the only thing I can think of but it doesn't really close such a huge gap in total run differential as far as I know (+198 for the Yankees, +117 for the Red Sox)
