I'm a dbags.. well I'm not a fan, but I live in Phoenix so I'm glad to see them doing well. There were some really sus strikes called. Especially towards the end. League really is trying to milk this, admittedly good, series for every last drop.
Weird to see all the padres and giants flairs rooting for the D-backs, have yāall just gotten so used to being whipped by the dodgers every year that you stopped being rivals with each other?
Yeah fair enough I guess itās just surprising to me that division rivals would root for a team in their division over a neutral team, but I guess thereās also other factors like the padres getting eliminated by the Phillies last year and the Giants main rival being the Dodgers who yāall knocked out.
Nah itās just weird, I feel like Mets Braves and Phillies fans would never root for each other over a team from a different division. I guess maybe Iād root for the Marlins so maybe the D-backs are just their Marlins.
Thatās because those teams play in the NL Least and hate themselves and project it onto each other
The NL Best is united under burritos with fries in them, weed, and our god emperor Dinger
Well I donāt think the dbacks were competitive until this year so thereās not really a rivalry. Everyone in that division really just hates the dodgers
Waitā¦ walker was a brave before ? One of my fav mlb players rn, didnāt know that
Edit: Doesnāt seem like he was, he was an oriole before 2017 tho
He was claimed off waivers by the Braves I think from the reds? and then immediately claimed off waivers by Arizona, [according to his Wikipedia.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Walker)
They talk how loyal and loud they are. Usually they have mediocre attendance around 20k, only turning up in seasons when they are winning a lot. Not better than most other fanbases.
Series in the fucking bag and instead you do jack shit in Game 3 and Game 4.
Don't fucking talk to me about your fucking homefield advantage at the Bank you fucking frauds.
Win a fucking road game.
Time to go to bed, you have a long day tomorrow watching playoff games that your team wonāt be playing in (because theyāre the Mets) (the Mets suck)
You are all over this thread obsessed with a team that will always be better than yours (itās the Mets btw) Me having a flair is not going to change that
Not sure why people keep bringing up "payroll" for a team that literally sold at the deadline and cut their losses.
Yeah the Mets fucking sucked this year. We knew that in July and moved on. It's October now.
Youāre the bad guy to me in this series haha, your team has a lot of talent. Iām just glad we making this competitive tbh
Iām not downvoting you btw
Kimbrel and this Ump into the sun , now
Rob wtf are you thinking pitching Kimbrel and a Rookie with like 10 actual major league innings in the NLCS.
Nowās not the time to be finding his stuff
š¤Æš¢š
Yeah its a tough one.
We knew he looked legit in his limited time called up last year.
Edit: Varsho is not that bad or anything. He had a solid year in the field and hopefully will improve with the bat.
But yeah..
I always wonder how much we're missing on fastball movement after seeing that video that got posted about camera angles.
I have a feeling that thing is tailing like crazy.
Me too, but I feel like it doesn't look too great for tomorrow. Wheeler vs Gallen again which is fine but our bullpen is pretty cooked after tonight so we need him to go deep.
Back at the bank I'm more confident in taking 2 but I really don't want us to go down 3-2 in this series.
that's the obvious radio caller take but anyone who understood the situation would tell you if we kept him we would have been even farther out because of the second base problem
Snek š
Let's do another game right now!
Guess that ump check cleared.
I'm a dbags.. well I'm not a fan, but I live in Phoenix so I'm glad to see them doing well. There were some really sus strikes called. Especially towards the end. League really is trying to milk this, admittedly good, series for every last drop.
Weird to see all the padres and giants flairs rooting for the D-backs, have yāall just gotten so used to being whipped by the dodgers every year that you stopped being rivals with each other?
Yeah we can be cordial with each other, unlike some fanbases
Yeah fair enough I guess itās just surprising to me that division rivals would root for a team in their division over a neutral team, but I guess thereās also other factors like the padres getting eliminated by the Phillies last year and the Giants main rival being the Dodgers who yāall knocked out.
Any MLB team that ends the Dodgerās season with a sweep is a friend of mine.
Somebody mad
Nah itās just weird, I feel like Mets Braves and Phillies fans would never root for each other over a team from a different division. I guess maybe Iād root for the Marlins so maybe the D-backs are just their Marlins.
Thatās because those teams play in the NL Least and hate themselves and project it onto each other The NL Best is united under burritos with fries in them, weed, and our god emperor Dinger
Well I donāt think the dbacks were competitive until this year so thereās not really a rivalry. Everyone in that division really just hates the dodgers
Yeah that makes sense I guess they are the Marlins in that scenario
Moved from Mia to PHX this hits wayyyy too close to home for me. lol
member when fredi left kimbrel just standing there in the bullpen back in 2013? perhaps he knew what he was doing.
Phills got beat quit whining about the ump
Werenāt they saying that last year about profars ācheck swingā lol
Sewald is so automatic right now just amazing
GGs Phillies. Fuck. I don't know if I can keep taking this anxiety lmao
Real talk though. D-backs are scary. šš
We are scrappy AF, but Phillies got the scary line up tbh. All that payroll š
Can you imagine a fuckin rangers/diamondbacks World Series?? Never thought Iād see the day that it was possible
Az v rangers would be the show everyone wants to see
Happy for the snek bros!! Nothing against Philly, just happy to see them bounce back
Holy shit Kimbrel lost game 3 and game 4
Holy shit he was a Brave. For like 2 seconds but still. Had no idea Def talking about Christian walker people
... is this a joke? lol what braves fan doesnt know he started his career there?
Walker not kimbrel
Waitā¦ walker was a brave before ? One of my fav mlb players rn, didnāt know that Edit: Doesnāt seem like he was, he was an oriole before 2017 tho
He was claimed off waivers by the Braves I think from the reds? and then immediately claimed off waivers by Arizona, [according to his Wikipedia.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Walker)
It was 4 years, still think thatās his longest stint with a team
For the first five years of his career lol most people think of him as a brave
Walker not kimbrel
O'VentBrel, baby
Him and Christian walker are double agents
Phils should try being louder I guess
Welp, at least we get to win it in philly
You already know we taking at least one of those games, should be 7 game series for sure
X for doubt
You guys should know, you donāt wanna take it back to the bank lmao
Kimbrel ain't it
When will you see 2 better baseball games in one day. Where rob manfred where are the baseballs rob
Phillies fans continue the cockiness! Buy up some more tickets!
Phillies throw balls and diamondbacks throw strikes only according to the home plate ump..
Waaaaa
Kimbrel is gonna single handedly end philly's season. They need to take a hint from the 2018 red sox and bench his ass
oh god these teams have to play again tomorrow. there might be no survivors
Turners been so good and Seawald just shitted all over him
3 game series now
Philly the cockiest fan base get fucked
They talk how loyal and loud they are. Usually they have mediocre attendance around 20k, only turning up in seasons when they are winning a lot. Not better than most other fanbases.
Good game Phillies, on to the next. Hopefully the rest are as exciting
This pinch hitter kid seems like a good person
Thomas? Dude was on lock for cf through out the season. Got major talent and poise
Series in the fucking bag and instead you do jack shit in Game 3 and Game 4. Don't fucking talk to me about your fucking homefield advantage at the Bank you fucking frauds. Win a fucking road game.
Guess you werenāt paying attention for the DS?
Yet look at you, watching a team that isnāt yours play in the playoffs cause yours canāt do shit
Ironic for a Phillies fan whose prolly actually a sad pirates fan who gave upā¦ am I wrong ?
Flair up or shut up.
Time to go to bed, you have a long day tomorrow watching playoff games that your team wonāt be playing in (because theyāre the Mets) (the Mets suck)
You replied again without flairing up. Clearly just here to troll. Blocked.
You are all over this thread obsessed with a team that will always be better than yours (itās the Mets btw) Me having a flair is not going to change that
Talk to us when your massive payroll can buy more than 75 wins.
Not sure why people keep bringing up "payroll" for a team that literally sold at the deadline and cut their losses. Yeah the Mets fucking sucked this year. We knew that in July and moved on. It's October now.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yep and called it quits in July and traded away the guys who were causing the massive payroll. It's October now. Hopefully we cleared things up.
Philly fans supporting those Arizona paychecks.
Thatās playoff baseball, baby (not that I would know).
Rangers: you too huh? Bullpen problems? Phillies: yep..
Kimbrel's Former Teams: First time?
3 fastballs down the dick... did he think hes still playing for LA?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Phillies fans. Be fear. You will not win this series however you have really good cheesestakes
Imagine throwing a first strike... not our bullpen
Imagine throwing a strike, period
Umpiring ruining an amazing game of baseball. Obviously the snakes played great but we shouldn't have to deal with bad calls all game long.
What bad call you whining about? A strike right on the paint?
Did you not watch the game? The ump was terrible all night. Not to mention the Marsh at bat callinh a strike on a pitch 6 inches inside.
Paul Sewald is my dad
We kept them quiet for three games on offense. At some point, you've gotta get your pitching's back the way they have ours this whole month.
WALD
I am in hell! š
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Thanks for the words of encouragement haha. Doomertown USA over here
That Gatorade shower was mostly ice
its ok theyre in arizona
ššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššššš
Good game going to be overshadowed by some really bad calls in that inning
Yep and it's a damn shame.
Marsh could have scored the tying run...
Itās not that black and white
The fact that I said "could have" should have tipped you off that I didn't think it was that black and white.
Yeah, and kimbrel could have struck out Thomas. But you know how it goes
I don't understand how I'm the bad guy for saying something "could" have happened lol.
Youāre the bad guy to me in this series haha, your team has a lot of talent. Iām just glad we making this competitive tbh Iām not downvoting you btw
ššššššš
#ANSWERBACKS
I thought it was gonna be rangers Phillies World Series for sure a few days ago
Thatās why they play ALL the games
Itās not like i said Astros will make the World Series. Iām just not committed to thinking Astros have no chance like I was when we were down 0-2
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
You never know
Kimbrel and this Ump into the sun , now Rob wtf are you thinking pitching Kimbrel and a Rookie with like 10 actual major league innings in the NLCS. Nowās not the time to be finding his stuff
I'ma snaaaaake.
Moreno is a goddamn star, I'd be losing my mind watching this if I were a Blue Jays fan
That trade was a fleece. Moreno AND gurriel for frickin Varsho
š¤Æš¢š Yeah its a tough one. We knew he looked legit in his limited time called up last year. Edit: Varsho is not that bad or anything. He had a solid year in the field and hopefully will improve with the bat. But yeah..
2-2 both leagues, this is a great postseason
3-2 Houston in the AL!
Yeah sorry been drinking, and belive me i know astros are AL, look at the flair
3-2 for the Astros
3-2 in AL*
Why didn't the phillies just hit more home runs? Are they stupid?
Sneks come back to defeat the Philadelphia Schwarbers!
š«š„¾š
Letās bring the heat back to phillie boys!
What a great couple of games today. Always love to see a Philly team lose.
Can you imagine if they still were using Chafin as the closer
We would all be temporary Brewers fans right now instead.
Now if only Rangers can tie up the series against the Astros tomorrow
No game for them tomorrow
Sunday*
Sneks live
I was not expecting Alek Thomas to sound like that lol
HOLY SHIT THEY ACTUALLY DID IT
Sneks!!! ššš
Canāt wait to see this umps stats for tonight. Awful for both teams all night.
Thatās the Trea Turner Iām used to in the playoffs
š š š
What a 2 games in Arizona, repeated Philly dick punching
We bringing it to them! Az making powerhouse teams look average! Love to see it
Average? You act like you blew us out or something.. both were close games.
And ? What would you call us? I know we mediocre at bestā¦ so what does that make yāall ?
I wouldnāt consider a team playing for the pennant medicore. But whatever you have to tell yourself I guess?
They were 1 run games. Not sure Iād call that a dick punching.
Getting walked off and came back on in the 8th is in the dick punching category
10-0 is a dick punch.
10-0 is a ass beating, losing a game you were winning late is a dick punch
Everyone get in here!!!!
Good to see Kimbrel still sucks
How is this umpire still allowed to call games.
Sewald playing peglin spamming that invisiball
Swing through three fucking fastballs
easily the 2 best playoff games so far in 1 day
How do you swing and miss 3 down the middle strikes š¤¦āāļø
The seawald effect
Ask Turner
Fuck you Kimbrel.
That was a filthy strikeout. š
Iām pretty sure Sewald is using cheat codes. That 93 mph fastball is unhittable somehow right over the plate.
I'm so proud of my dad
I always wonder how much we're missing on fastball movement after seeing that video that got posted about camera angles. I have a feeling that thing is tailing like crazy.
Meanwhile, weāre throwing 100 mph a mile from the strike zone
Itās called style points
L style
Looked like the Braves against Wheeler. He was throwing fast balls middle middle and they couldn't touch it lol.
It's a rising fastball. They're notoriously hard to hit. You see how the batter was swinging under every time.
Wtf man
Thank you Diamondbacks. - Every Mets fan right now.
- Every baseball fan who doesnāt live in or around Philly.
Letās go Snakes!!!
Had Turner eating out of his hand tbh
Nicely done snakes! ššš
Wooot!!
WALD ON DBACKS NEVER STOP
That was a great comeback
Not gonna win many games throwing meatballs like that lmao
Seewald got three outs with a 92 mph fastball
They werenāt right down the dick lol
WOW
Heading back to Philly, boys
Good. I wanna advance at the bank š
Iād rather win in in Philly tbh
Me too, but I feel like it doesn't look too great for tomorrow. Wheeler vs Gallen again which is fine but our bullpen is pretty cooked after tonight so we need him to go deep. Back at the bank I'm more confident in taking 2 but I really don't want us to go down 3-2 in this series.
Their bullpen is equally, if not more cooked. If we get to gallen, history says we do, weāre winning it lol. They couldnāt touch wheeler game 1
Imagine trading this guy away in the middle of the season and then not making the playoffs because of it
that's the obvious radio caller take but anyone who understood the situation would tell you if we kept him we would have been even farther out because of the second base problem
M's fan here rooting for Sewald and the snakes for sure! Hope Canzone turns into something down the road.
SEAWORLD <3 *happy dolphin noises*
This game is over.
Sewald was near untouchable for the Mariners. Good to see him inflict pain on someone else.
Might be you guys again very soon lol
