More Mariners baseball!

Can't wait to see how we lose this tonight!

How about on a check swing single to start the inning?

 

[distantmantra]

You mean an almost check swing double?

FUCK THIS EARTH

 

[zulux21]

it's a shame that last hit wasn't done with 2 outs.

 

[Paches]

Win this now.

 

[Macattk15]

Hereee we go. Austin fuckin Jackson up again.

 

[distantmantra]

Why do the Angels care so much?

YOU WON THE WEST AND HAVE HOMEFIELD ADVANTAGE!!!

 

[Chris R]

BETTER get the run this time.

SERIOUSLY

 

[ReignofSparrows]

Be a hero, Jackson. Be a motherfucking hero. Let's go.

 

[zulux21]

Why do the Angels care so much?

YOU WON THE WEST AND HAVE HOMEFIELD ADVANTAGE!!!

that's what I was saying... they should be throwing this game and the next game to put more pressure on oak to weaken a potential first round enemy.

 

[Macattk15]

FUCK AUSTIN JACKSON. STILL TERRIBLE.

 

[rando14]

I WILL FUCKING TAKE IT

 

[Chris R]

YES YES YES YES YES

No video evidence to prove it otherwise right??? YES YES YES YES YES

 

[santeesioux]

A win is a win.

 

[Jimothy]

That works I guess

 

[ReignofSparrows]

What a Mariners-like win. Dreadful offense and it takes a should have been double play to plate the winning run. And I'll fucking take it. Go Rangers!

 

[zulux21]

YES YES YES YES YES

No video evidence to prove it otherwise right??? YES YES YES YES YES

nope he was indeed safe because the feed to start the double play was terrible.

 

[cashman]

That's probably the most Mariners way to win a game.

 

[Paches]

Mariners baseball. Felix redemption tomorrow.

 

[Macattk15]

Rangers and Felix must have the game of their lives tomorrow.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Who gets fired if Oakland blows this?

 

[Chris R]

Rangers and Felix must have the game of their lives tomorrow.

Man if Felix goes 8 ip and we lose 1-0 I'll be fucking pisssssssed.

Well maybe not that mad if Oakland destroys Texas since our 1-0 loss won't matter.

 

[lazybones18]

So perfect scenario after Sunday night:

Det/KC tie atop AL Central
Stl/Pit tie atop NL Central
Oak/Sea tie Wild Card spot

LET'S MAKE IT HAPPEN

 

[sf2fanatic]

Bad day for the fanatic.

4 teamer parlay
Dodgers W
White Sox W
Rangers W
Last team I needed. Astros. more salt to wound lost it in bottom of 9th

 

[CygnusXS]

Who gets fired if Oakland blows this?

Definitely Jonah Hill.

 

[BFIB]

Can't wait for the Cards to play down to the DBacks level today.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

So I went to an A's game in mid August, bought one of those neon looking hats, and since then they've been shit. I guess by coincidence it affected my Braves too, because their season went done the toilet at the same time. Feels bad.

 

[harSon]

Oh god.

We're going for the division title and pitching Cole

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Oh god.

We're going for the division title and pitching Cole

Sweet...and Cards is starting Wainwright.
We'll see one of you with Bum on the mount Wednesday.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

I'm excited to see what skipper Juan Uribe does today. His post-game conference should be great.

Ju know...

 

[lazybones18]

Let Altuve play today, Astros

edit: https://twitter.com/astros/status/516264439402999808

Guess that's settled then

 

[Sir Alemeth]

The Padres are 53-12 this season when they score four or more runs.

Padres pitching so good.

 

[darkside31337]

Good for Altuve.

Hope he doesn't lose because the Altuve comes up short jokes are going to be terrible.

 

[Joey Fox]

Sweet...and Cards is starting Wainwright.
We'll see one of you with Bum on the mount Wednesday.

And then we'll see one of the three of you with Strasburg on the bump Friday.

 

[harSon]

Kinda glad Cole went today...

 

[Doogdogg]

Allen Craig is simply awful.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Braves scratch Alex Wood with left elbow discomfort. Yay.

 

[jakncoke]

Neil Walker has had such a good season this year

 

[Alex Anderson]

Bye, Jeets

 

[BassForever]

Goodbye Jeter

:'[

 

[lazybones18]

And that's the end for Jeter

We'll miss ya ;__;7

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

goodbye Captain, we'll miss you.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

no lie I'm actually getting teary eyed at this. I grew up watching this guy and he made the Yankees cool again.

 

[BassForever]

Don't be sad because it's over

Smile because it happened

It's a good thing it's raining right now

 

[cashman]

Bye Jeets. I doubt we will ever see a player so incredibly overrated by the media ever again.

 

[Windu]

Now time to grow that hair out

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

Bye Jeets. I doubt we will ever see a player so incredibly overrated by the media ever again.

what does that even mean overrated? do they rate him too much? do they talk about him too much? imagine that, the writers like writing about a guy who didn't shoot up drugs, shoot people, fuck people over over (that we know) you're not smart by saying that. and you're dumb by saying he's not a good baseball player. by nearly every metric he's good. better than good.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

That was a nifty play by Harrison.

The guy can be good and still be overrated. Relax.

 

[Friggz]

Bye Jeets. I doubt we will ever see a player so incredibly overrated by the media ever again.

you mean one of the best shortstops of all time? its a shame you arent a baseball fan. its a good game.

 

[Windu]

do they talk about him too much? .

yes.

That applies to like 90% of the league, only those guys aren't "True Yankees!!!" like Jeter so they are largely ignored. Jeter was a very good player, and deserves credit for playing as long as he did and accumulating HoF stats, but the media vastly overrated him over the years because he fit their easy narrative.
