In Smoltz's defense, that's not really what he said. He said that the way Yuli covers the area around 1st reminds him of the way Pujols used to cover the area when he was young.

Which is why he sucked so bad all season.

This (https://www.mlb.com/astros/news/yordan-alvarez-homers-in-world-series-game-5) is what I was talking about: HR drought.

Quote
After launching 27 home runs during his rookie season, Yordan Alvarez had gone 21 consecutive games without hitting a ball out of the park. It was the longest streak of his short career, and he snapped it on Sunday night.

Yes, Come on La Pina!

Cole had zero interest in that milquetoast interview post-game.


The contract only says I have to do interviews, it doesn't say I have to be enthusiastic.

3 runs allowed in 3 games.

The pitching staff (and Strom) were so strong in Washington.

Now, if we can get a win at home... that would be nice.
That's enough road wins. Time for the home team to win one.

Only in bain if we get through them Tuesday, otherwise could still be viable

Not ready to make the practice WS Nationals trophy a conclusive rallying point until we can close them out

The Nationals rehearsed the trophy presentation.

The BBGs were watching.

Let’s stay humble before the BBGs.

But that trophy isn’t getting presented in Washington.

This being the entire point.  The only way the trophy presentation happens in DC is if the Nats win 2 up there.

I think of that old OfficeMax (or whatever office supply store it was) commercial.
I always think of The Spinners, I loved those guys.

Excellent!
Glad to see it acknowledged.
Love of baseball can/should unite us, not divide us.
Excellence should be acknowledged and celebrated.

We Americans desperately need to follow their example by being able to differ politically in a civil way as well, rather than acting like Yankee fans.....

Yes.  Everything about that song is fucking awful.  I didn't know it existed until the postseason, and I can only assume that last game is the last time I'll ever hear it.

I never heard of it until the WS. I can see how it's catchy if you're under age 5.
