Tigers Red Sox is boring.

 

 

 

Why?Well it's a silly theory. Even though I think this is the first time they've met in the playoffs it seems like these 2 are here every year. For some reason dodgers cardinals is more enticing.

While Detroit has been in the last 3, Red Sox haven't been in the ALCS since 08. Dodgers have been in 3 of the last 6 NLCS and the Cardinals in 8 of the last 14. I'd say the NLCS is more under the category of "here every year" teams. The Cardinals have been in the last 3 NLCS, as well, now I think about it.

Rooting for the Cardinals to win it now.

I hope the Cards get ripped by the Dodgers...

 

And then the Tigers stomp on the Dodgers.

Dodgers strike first. Joe Kelly's had some trouble with his command so far.

Cardinals struck back.

I know its been said 100 times but the announcers are garbage.

 

 

They are. I hardly pay attention to what they say, but every so often, my mind focuses in for about three seconds.

Randy pitched a helluva game.

Randy pitched a helluva game.

 

 

Agreed. He deserves the rest of the series off for that performance.

Nice play by ManBearPuig.

"This is a weird move pinch-running for Gonzalez, taking out one of your best bats in a tie game. What if the game goes 12 innings?"

 

Well, clearly, THEY'RE DOING ALL THEY CAN NOW TO MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T GO 12!

 

Wow these announcers really are dumb.

 

 

Edit - and so is Dee Gordon. Dude, you're in to pinch-run. RUN!

Yea Dee goofed. Now lets make things interesting and have Wilson-Marmol pitch back-to-back

Extras in St. Louis!

GREAT throw by Beltran!

Nice throw by Beltran. The Jon Jay gaffe doesn't come back to haunt them.

Did Don Mattingly really take out Adrian Gonzalez to pinch-run Dee Gordon? I hope they lose.

If Dee Gordon had actually done his job and RUN, this might have been a good decision.

Well played, announcer ...

Cardinals take game 1!

Carlos Beltran did the opposite of choke!

Anibal Sanchez is a pretty good pitcher.

Detroit is gonna throw a no hitter. Thanks a lot CHOKELAND A'S!

Nope.

1-0 Detroit

2-0 Cardinals

So Max Scherzer is doing his thing through five.
