Because I really want to comment on this game.

[JoeDirt]

Right after you reveal the most recent name the 'stache...

[Attezz]

Unreal

[nomaaa]

no spoilers.

just fucking wow.

wow.


what a fucking game.

[Attezz]

I'm pretty sure everyone who wanted to see it has seen it by now...

My bench and relief staff are incredible, and thank fucking god it didn't come down to my LF's error in the 9th, as I'd be bitching about the awful call on Foster's 3 run bomb in the first.

If that game is any indication it's going to be a crazy series, recap to come later

Any chance that zip comes in swedish?

Not sure what you are talking about

Game 2 video attached

Game 1 recap planned for later today

[OctoFranco]

That game had more outs on the basepaths than a match-up between me and Attezz at the tail-end of a night of the drinking game.

Lemme know when those interested parties (Attezz, Nomaaa, anyone else?) have watched it too.  Suppressing emotion is difficult.

Watched it, and it was fantastic.

WS Game 1:  Attez 33 Octo 29 (10 inn)

Single, Single, HR.  Repeat.  That's the way the game started as Attez had a 6-0 lead after 6 batters thanks to 3-run shots from Foster and Campanella.  Octo trailed 10-0 when they came to bat in the 2nd, and they led 11-10 when they came out for the 3rd.  The Cansecos combined for 3 HRs and 7 RBIs in the inning as NES hit 2 3-run shots and all of a sudden we had a ballgame.  Back and forth it went, Octo led 19-18 after 4 and 27-23 after 7.

In the 8th Attez got a PH HR from Cany Maldonado, then a 1B from Trammell, a 2B by Ozzie Smith, and a 1B by Eddie Matthews, after an RBI groundout by Foster, Hack Wilson hit a 2-run HR to give Attez a 28-27 lead.  Dwight Evans led off the bottom of the 8th with a PH HR to tie the game back up, but that's all Octo could muster so it was 28-28 headed to the 9th.  Keith Hernandez finally broke out of his slump to hit a 1 out solo shot in the 9th, but Ozzie Smith stranded Tim Raines at 2nd stiking out for the 3rd time in the game.  In the bottom of the 9th Davey Johnson hit a 1 out 2B the George Foster dropped a line drive off Mike Schmidt's bat, putting runners on 1st and 3rd with 1 out for Octo.  CansecoNES hit a 2B right over the first basemen's head for an RBI 2B, but Schmidt was thrown out at the plate by a mile and then Whitey Ford retired CansecoARC to get out of the jam, headed to the 10th tied at 29.

Foster and Campanella hit a 2-run shots in the 10th reminiscent of the first innning to give Attez a 33-29 lead.  Nokes led off the bottom of the 10th with a PH 2B but after a Roger Mcdowell pop up, Gary Gaetti hit into a 3-5 DP to end the game.
