Rangers Blue Jays game 2

[Angelsfirst]

Why is Donaldson wearing a Christmas ornament around his neck?

[Ray McKigney]

Donaldson is starting to annoy the hell out of a lot of pitchers. Plus, he looks exactly like Steve Zahn.

MLB gameday just showed the first pitch to Joey as a ball right down the middle of the strikezone?  Is that real?

It bounced about 3 feet in front of the plate.

[CaliAngel]

Yeah, both Bautista and Donaldson watched pitches right down the pipe.

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

About 2 feet shy of a walk off.

 

Weird feeling Texas gets a run or two here. 

[CaliAngel]

Ugh, Hamilton up. Hope he K's.

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

LaTroy Hawkins in...

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

Whose calling the game with Bob Costas?

 

What's the odds that he croaks before the game finishes?

[Angel Dog and Beer]

Nice to see HAmbone in fine post season form. 0/6 2k this game and 0/4 2k yesterday.

[bloodbrother]

Umps are bad. Odor looked to have come off the bag and they tagged him out. They go to replay and still get it wrong

 

Texas now takes the lead a few pitches later

[Aaronkv]

LaTroy Hawkins is really all they have left?

[bloodbrother]

Hard to believe the Jays are in the playoffs with guys like Hawkins and Mark Lowe in the pen.

[CanadianHalo]

If you use logic he's out at 2nd but there was never no definitive angle to show him ACTUALLY come off with tag applied. Replay really is useless.

[CanadianHalo]

What a pick up DeShields has been for Texas

You can't overturn that because it wasn't clear he came off the bag. It looked like his cleat was still on the side of it.

In the end the result is that it's basically a judgement call. If the ump had called him out in real time, they wouldn't have seen enough to overturn

[Slegnaac]

Why the hell is there a playoff baseball game at 930 am pst.

Does the mlb not want people watching? Does the mlb think people don't have jobs?

Sounds Old School to me.

Do you not remember being in English class and the teacher having the playoff game on the radio?

Yep, that's what I mean there was no definitive angle to see it so whatever they called on the field was going to stick.

[bloodbrother]

Well looks like the Rangers are going to the ALCS. Buehrle in Game 3 in Texas? Yeah good luck Toronto

[nando714]

Thanks for nothing Canada

Toronto cleaned out their farm for Nada

I'm not watching 1 second of the alcs between houston and Texas

[Vegas Halo Fan]
