Official Columbus Play-In Tourney Thread

[Baines]

Apparently no takers on SalBando's spot so it's on as originally planned begininning at 11-12ish tomorrow morning.

Something that just occurred to me is that we'll need a NES at the hotel at that time (I can bring an RBI cart).  It seems like TBT was bringing an NES, hopefully someone can confirm this for me.

the nes is already hooked up and working

Awesome.  Just ignore my question in the other thread.

So far:

Baines over malnu in one first round series:
Ca 2
SF  0

NY  5
Bo  6   14 innings

Second game was a fkn marathon.  Baines takes an early 4-0 lead on a bunch of solo bombs.  Malnu goes up 5=-4 in the 8th when baines struggles with Bruce hurst.  It was a battle of attrition until Baines got a walk off with Rice in the 14th off McDowell.

Gantry was the winner here, moving onto the big tourney, with Baines pulling the biggest collapse since OSU basketball and football COMBINED.

Can someone please give details of the Gantry/Baines game now?

[Gantry]

Baines was three sheets to the wind when I got the NL poker chip against Baines' St. Louis.  Though clearly drunk beyond belief, Baines was still pitching like a champ and took an early lead with a dinger by Vince fkn Coleman. 

We go to the 11th inning and single sack Kruk is at the plate.  Bloop single that turns into an inside the park homer to cost Baines the tourney.

Gantry making it to Day Two is the most impressive thing since Lips pulled off the feat in '05!
