Playoffs - Day 7 - MikeV and Moustache Are Excited! Fister versus the Yankees Gamethread
by Leopold Bloom on Oct 6, 2011 4:45 PM PDT
Email
PrintIn a winner-take-all slug fest, we have the unstoppable force of Doug Fister pitching for the Tigers.
Perhaps you didn't hear me. I said Doug. Fister.
If anything makes an Adonis like Derek Jeter quake in his boots, it's Doug Fister.
Of course, nothing does. The Yankees are all but guaranteed a win here. Detroit, like countless teams before them, had their chance in game four, but the Yankees will not fail here, in a pivotal series-ending game. They are not unlike Jason from the Friday the 13th movies. Teams start celebrating at the temporary fallen head of the seemingly defeated monster because the monster looks dead. It is lying there, not moving, and this is the time to rejoice.
NO! BAD KITTIES! NO! [whaps Motor City Felines across snout with rolled up newspaper]
Cut. The. Head. Off.
Make sure they're dead. Follow them into the clubhouse. Help ARod pack up his stuff for the season.
Instead, Detroit's about to get a machete through their collective midsection, while looking at us all hopeful n...stuff.
I dislike the Yankees. As epic as the collapse of the Red Sox was, and as happy as I was watching their reversal of fortune at Joe's, with Chickie n the boys, it would give me more satisfaction to watch the Yankees die tonight.
But. That ain't gonna happen. And we'll have to choose between rooting for the Yankees or rooting for the Rangers. It's getting so I hate the post-season.
Yankees have some rookie named Ivan Nova, who went 16-4 for them this season! I'm fairly certain I could tear my labrum and still win ten games with that kind of run support. Bastards.
There's this: Too-Much-Moneyball
And this: Jeff haz a funny.
Lineups (not from Susan, but I love her and they steal from her, so eff em) from Susan Slusser:
8:07pm Tigers (D. Fister - R) @ Yankees (I. Nova - R)
And, according to Susan above, game starts at 8:07pm, EST, which means 5:07pm for us. Strange how she would put the time in EST...that wacky Slusser!

The ump seems confused between the Yankee zone and the fair playoff zone.
"Trying not to rec a "F**k the Giants" post is like trying not to look at boobs."
I loved the pitch sequence...
Where Fister threw a perfect high strike to Jeter that was called a ball, the announcers start talking about how it’s a low strike zone, and then like 2 pitches later he splits the bottom of the zone to have it also called a ball.
Seeing people trying make sense of the Yankee strike zone is great comedy.

Too tense.

I'm doing well too
Gearing up for a busy admissions season (we seem to be more popular with each passing year), but that’s all right. I also had a truly wonderful vacation last month, so those memories help keep me sane.
I’m glad you’re very well, though, that’s great to hear.

I’m sorry I didn’t see you more this season. That’ll definitely not be the case next year.

Rest assured, though, I only have the highest regard for you.

It would have been a lazy flyout in the night air of Oakland.
"Trying not to rec a "F**k the Giants" post is like trying not to look at boobs."
I know we all know this already,
but this ALDS has reminded me just how lucky we are to have Korach. I’ve been making do with MLB Audio (I don’t have cable, thus no TBS) and the Tigers announcers insist on yelling all the time. It’s pretty terrible.
In God We Trust....All Others Must Show Data
Heh, nice
I was riffing with my brother recently in a Barney Stinson-esque way and I told him that you can’t spell awesome without w-e-s. He laughed, realized it was true, and then laughed some more.
I felt cool. For about two minutes. Until I realized I was just corny.
But you’re very welcome. Like I said, there’s a reason I didn’t go the craigslist route. I’m glad I can help my fellow AN’ers out.
In God We Trust....All Others Must Show Data
I swear to God
These fucking TBS announcers are calling this game like the NYY are up by 12 runs… you can’t understand a word they are saying with so much Yankee dick in their mouths.
Please get 3 more outs Valverde and send these punks packing for the winter.

in the network executive washroom...
I sense a disturbance in the force, as if a large market team lost…
All the Yankees turned around and headed into the clubhouse except Posada
He knows he’s done, I think.

the palpable disappointment in the announcers' voices
as they go through the motions of talking about the Tigers is disgusting. These people are sports journalists exactly how now? GET OFF MY TELEVISION WITH YOUR PATHETIC SYCOPHANCY, you WEALTH WORSHIPPING DOGS!!!!!!

Imagine Bill King broadcasting – would it be OK?
huh? bill king took pride in his nonpartisan game-calling. (is that what you meant?)
i once heard him talk about his own call on the 88 home run (you know who) and he said something like, if you came from mars and had just landed on the earth to hear him call it, you wouldn’t be able to tell what side he was calling it for. GAD i miss him.

Even so
This was a national broadcast team, not a local broadcast team that calls for one team every game. They should be less biased. If it was the NY broadcast I wouldn’t have a problem with it. But, TBS clearly acting so depressed with the Yankees losing was pretty ridiculous.

i’m on the same side here. broadcasters should be unbiased. especially national. local, i could see how you can root for your team, but in calling it, you have to call it evenly. i also remember king railing on broadcasters that say “we” when talking about the team, or even the local fans’ side, as in “we need a run here.” the broadcaster does not need a run, anywhere.

I remember bill having more excitement for A;s walk offs,
as compared to opponent walkoffs.
Different than Bias, however. You can root for a team, but call the game straight.
Also, national vs local is a factor in what is expected
Now......what time is that phillies game tomorrow? The match up sounds like a great one
AN Tailgate = Euphemism for food porn.
still can't care about NL baseball
I want the tigers in the WS, don’t care about anything else
You're the boss. -Future Ed
I don't watch enough of the NL during the regular season
to care all that much about them in the playoffs. I don’t know enough of the players, so it’s just a bunch of random guys… and an assortment of ex-A’s.
I am so hoping for this match-up
I like the idea of Fox Sports executives contemplating suicide.
I don't feel that I'm feeling your feelings, about these feelings that you feel.
All right, I'm off to do laundry
Have a wonderful night, AN. Be good to yourselves.

Night, Jo!
Thanks for putting up with my glibness last week.
In God We Trust....All Others Must Show Data
Love you too, Lynn.
It was good to see you too. I’ll see you soon.

I was a little disappointed in Valverde's celebration there.
That’s all he could come up with? Where was the hopping around and chicken dance and whatnot?
He should have done a "Papalbon".
I would have loved to see that on NY’s field.

Did you see Cabrara laughing in the Yankees' fans faces
while they were attempting to taunt him in defeat?
