World Series Game 7
 
Anyone else watching the game right now? starting a thread to talk about some of the highlights of the game...

doug.goodman 11-01-2025 07:21 PM

I'll do my best to not complain about the stupid stats they they constantly spew.

I miss Vin.

bk400 11-01-2025 07:29 PM

Watching here. Ohtani looked a bit shaky in the first inning, but getting Vlad looking and doubling up Springer was huge.

Casey2296 11-01-2025 07:29 PM

Final game of the season, I miss baseball already.

Brent G. 11-01-2025 07:30 PM

I haven’t watched a full game this postseason, but yeah, gotta see this.

Same. At least we'll get the World Baseball Classic this March...and random winter league action for those that seek it out.

nebboy 11-01-2025 07:32 PM

Just glad it made it to 7

Blunder19 11-01-2025 07:36 PM

Rooting for Mattingly to get his first WS ring...

Blue Jays couldn't have been happy that he got extra time to warm up in the first inning. The rules should be applied the same to everyone.

bk400 11-01-2025 07:47 PM

The Dodgers have to get Ohtani out of there.

Agree. Although I suppose the stars always get accommodations -- like how veteran star pitchers get a more generous strike zone.

He looks tired and off. He got lucky that last inning, IMHO.

ValKehl 11-01-2025 07:57 PM

Too bad for the Jays that someone other than the recently-injured Bichette wasn't on second base when Clement got a 2-out hit to right field in the 2nd inning, as said other player would likely have scored. Go Blue Jays!

Happened again and they're talking about it a lot more. Needs to be addressed in the rules so everyone knows what to expect.

If it was obvious to me, it should have been obvious to Dave Roberts

No need to be concerned about running around the bases when you hit a dinger!!

Ohtani is choking pretty hard.

doug.goodman 11-01-2025 08:03 PM

I said walk him too to my wife, but she wasn't listening either...

Expect a call from the Dodgers front office tomorrow.

It's not like I'm the only fan who could see Ohtani struggling. It was obvious to anyone who's watched Ohtani pitch this year.

Same here. Hopefully it happens tonight!

jayshum 11-01-2025 08:20 PM

Blue Jays defense keeps them in the lead. That's probably it for Scherzer.

Not like the last time two future Hall of Fame pitchers started game 7 of the World Series.

jayshum 11-01-2025 08:31 PM

When's the last time benches emptied in a World Series game?

Blunder19 11-01-2025 08:38 PM

Fun Fact: tonight will only be the second time in MLB history the WS winner was decided outside of the United States.

CobbSpikedMe 11-01-2025 08:39 PM

I'm not watching. I can't stand either team, but I have to say I'm rooting for the Jays to win so the LA Ohtanis go home with nothing. I can't watch it because each time I've tried to watch a game in this series, all the announcers do is talk about how great Ohtani is and they just repeat his stats and amazingness all game long. I can't take it. So, yes, I hope they lose and the Jays win. I can't believe I'm rooting for the Blue Jays. Never thought that day would come. :(

jayshum 11-01-2025 08:40 PM

Blue Jays should be up by 5 or 6 after 4 innings. We'll see if it comes back to haunt them.

Gorditadogg 11-01-2025 09:14 PM

It's getting tense now.

Although I was hoping Rojas would walk so Ohtani could bat with the bases loaded.

But it's not game 7 Ohtani vs optimal Ohtani. It's game 7 Ohtani vs the other options in the bullpen.

BearBailey 11-01-2025 09:59 PM

Ernie clement future trivia answer, most hits ever in a single post season.

bk400 11-01-2025 10:08 PM

Baseball is so awesome.

bk400 11-01-2025 10:15 PM

Holy J-sus

BobbyStrawberry 11-01-2025 10:17 PM

Joe Davis' Dodgers homerism on these broadcasts is completely ridiculous.

Vintagedeputy 11-01-2025 10:21 PM

Let’s go Jays!

jayshum 11-01-2025 10:40 PM

He was probably out at home, but I'm amazed at how quick the review was.

BioCRN 11-01-2025 10:40 PM

This is some high quality basesballs.

Definitely out, but yes that was quick.

Gorditadogg 11-01-2025 10:43 PM

Why did that PR slide into home instead of running? That could cost the Jays the WS.

It was pretty close if the catcher's foot was back down on the plate before the runner got there.

nebboy 11-01-2025 10:43 PM

Wow wow wow - love a great close last game of the year!!!
Game if inches for sure

sbfinley 11-01-2025 10:43 PM

Just what they're used to doing

doug.goodman 11-01-2025 10:45 PM

Why are none of the shitty announcers asking why Hernandez was so shallow in left? That should have been an easy fly out.

doug.goodman 11-01-2025 10:46 PM

Hoping we go 19...

Trying to prevent a bloop hit from winning the game makes some sense.
