Bottom of the 9th for Nationals' last game, too bad they fell just short of .500, but one game away is pretty good, for that franchise.

Not entirely sure how he got the nickname, but his father is Tito Francona

According to Wikipedia that was his father's nickname, yeah, so it's not likely something he (Terry) just picked up in the last few years.

 

[yankeehater]

When LeBron was in Cleveland heard it alot. Can be used with Dwight Howard also.

Must've got it in Boston, never heard that name when he was in Philly.

He was Tito the whole time he was in Philly.

 

[hemtae]

Betances isn't a scrub but he's probably going to get bombed.

My team is probably going to have John Lackey pitch the most important game of the season if they win this most important game of the season. I'm allowed to call whoever I want a scrub. Scrub.

 

[The Frankman]

He was Tito the whole time he was in Philly.

What? Never heard that once when he was a manager there, and I was even watching broadcasts then. Weird.

 

[yankeehater]

I dont know, I remember the announcers calling him Tito all the time.

 

[McNei1y]

80-81 and third place in the NL East. If someone told me this at the beginning of the season I would've been shocked. I knew this team was progressing but I haven't felt this happy since '05. Gonna miss it.

At least theres some awesome wild card and playoff baseball coming.

[Mr. Enigma]

I am so nervous. I haven't vomited in over 14 years, but I'm pretty close.

Reminds me of the old days as a Mets fan.

It's not bad having your season be over on opening day!

I'm the opposite. Been excited all day for baseball.

so you have a Jerry Seinfeld streak going? what was the date of the last time?

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Don't get me wrong. I'm excited too. Even though this has been really tough to watch, deep down I know it's ultimately great for baseball and that all eyes are going to be on four games tonight that three weeks ago looked totally meaningless.

I just want to get it going.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

September 20, 1997. I got food poisoning.

 

[Sanjuro]

Yup. Today, we are all Red Sox fans.

 

[lazybones18]

Have ESPN 3 ready, let's do this

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

Betances isn't a scrub but he's probably going to get bombed.

Well he can't possibly be as nervous as he was last time. If "if you get shelled, the Red Sox are probably eliminated" doesn't help you relax, nothing will.

 

[The Frankman]

Here we go people...



konex braves

 

[Brinbe]

Awesome, Sportsnet is showing the four games. Gonna be a great night.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

LET'S FUCKIN DO THIS

 

[lowhighkang_LHK]

I'm debating what to watch.

Boston
Tampa Bay
St. Louis
or Atlanta

I'm leaning on following St. Louis and Boston. Don't really want to juggle 4 games.

EDIT: Are these games blackout? I have my ps3 and mlb.tv ready for this.

ESPN3 has all the games online.

Rays game is blacked out for me, so I can't juggle 3 games on one screen but whatever

 

[Windu]

LET'S FUCKIN DO THIS

We got this.

 

[yankeehater]

Go Sox ,Go Braves, Go Astros.

He was awful in his debut, can't possibly be worse even though the rays are hoping for that. I want him to do well but I also want the rays to win. Hmm...

 

[weekend_warrior]

Dammit Granderson, stop having an MVP season!

 

[The Frankman]

Hudson already throwing alot of pitches in the 1st. Not good.

EDIT: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO RBI DOUBLE.

 

[The Outsider]

Braves are done.

 

[rekameohs]

Have fun watching the playoffs, Braves.

 

[JABEE]

Mr. Mediocre with the opposite field double.

 

[Windu]

sheesh

 

[Sanjuro]

Granderson > Jacoby. lol

 

[lazybones18]

fuck!

 

[darkside31337]

Zobrist, really bro

 

[Brinbe]

LOL

 

[Doytch]

bucknered total

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Jesus Christ...

 

[Malo]

Damn it, Zobrist.

 

[Jubs]

[darkside31337]

Come on Price -_-

 

[The Frankman]

26 pitches in the 1st.

[The Outsider]

Hey, a base hit!

And a stolen base!

 

[JABEE]

The Braves are still probably going to win this with Blanton on the mound.

I'm not so confident.

Okay, tie game! Maybe we can do this?

 

[lazybones18]

[Windu]

Woot tie game!
