    Great season. Going to game 7 of the ALCS and losing by one run is about as close to the big show as it gets. Bryon Woo's injury and inability to get his usual 5-6 inning starts stressed the pitching staff. That probably added 1 or 2 runs for Toronto to each game. The M's hitting is largely...

    If this game goes extra innings I'm switching to the Seahawks game.. and great at bat by Robles!

    The best teams in baseball have stretches where they play like the worst, and the worst have stretches where they play like the best. It's like fishing: it's not where you fish, it's when you fish where you fish vs. it's not who you play, it's when you play who you play.

    If the weather holds today I might miss the first 1-1.5 hours going fishing. Just a touch of rain yesterday should get a few fish moving if it doesn't pour again. Catching steelhead is almost as rare as the M's going to the playoffs, and frankly, even though I talk the talk ("It's just...

    tough loss.. Hard to win baseball games scoring 2 runs particularly when your starting pitching is shellac'd. Bats will need to show up tomorrow.

    They're loading up the lineup with lefties is my guess

    So I know that AI can do amazing things. But does anyone give a crap about the splits on batters that tap the plate vs those that don't? Is that a prop bet or something?

    I have no prediction for this game; way too many variables. Love the fact that M's have the leverage, 1w to go ahead vs the Jays needing 2w. Regardless of how this goes I'm asking for a Cal Raleigh jersey for Christmas this year to go along with Julio and JP's... and a couple 4 packs of Big...

    PFDs you'll actually wear

    I fell in a couple winters ago, took one step too far while swinging a sweet little bucket. I had my NRS Chinook on and it probably saved my life. I was on a gravel bar towards the middle of the river, but after falling in and getting swept downstream I had to swim about 100' to get to the bank...

    Apparently the best thing I can do for the Mariners is not watch them. I decided to row downstream and swing a fly for the last 3 innings. Came back to the house and my wife was watching the Great British Baking show. I'm thinking, sh*t, the M's are down six runs and she changed the channel. Ha...

    Yellowjackets With An End Of The Season Vengeance!!!

    Hope that heals quickly for you. Those buggers don't waste anytime in fall; they go right in and draw first blood without any warning.

    ya, it's baseball... any game in October is a bonus. It's been great to have a team to root for in the playoffs and this thing ain't over until someone puts up 4 W's.... enjoy the roller coaster ride cuz' it most likely ain't over.

    Dodgers hitters are relentless tonight. Looking like both away teams in the LCS series will steal a pair of games.

    Jorge... one of the sweetest swings in the bigs. His body is so quiet, the stroke is so compact and effortless.

    Are these guys in the booth really showing how to carve a turkey during an ALCS game?

    Jorge!!!!! No hero ball, just does his job and in the process becomes a hero.

    that was strange, maybe the M's film crew had some angle that showed Cal's foot above the plate?

    Didn't care for all those base runners stranded in extra innings either, but sometimes that's just baseball. The rotation and bullpen are taxed, but the rules for managing pitchers go out the window in October -- sure hope Dr. Woo is available tomorrow. Now it's time to make Cal Raleigh's...

    Nice win for the M's. Great to see Genio and JP join the party. Logan Gilbert was surgical. I could do w/o seeing Furgeson pitch again. Here's hoping Bryce Miller brings his best stuff tomorrow and a shame that Woo isn't available to end this series.
