i love him. not sure why he rubs so many people the wrong way. just seems to be a dude who loves live sports and has the means to afford it. hes been doing this for years and is just now getting all this attention so if he was just a publicity whore he would have given up long ago.

anyway tonights gonna be crazy. royals have got to score first, and score big, cuz any sign of trouble by hudson likely means bumgarner on the horizon

ventura was impressive last night. that guy should be something special to watch in the coming years

on the other end of the spectrum, hunter strickland is heading for one of the worst offseasons possible. 6 playoff home runs given up. yikes. the giants dont seem like the organization to give up on a guy too soon but thats a heavy weight for their closer of the future to carry, especially if they lose

definitely. but the inning after the royals scored all those runs it looked like ventura was gonna totally melt down (walked the bases loaded, posey up) but he got out of it with no runs and then settled down big time. for a rookie that was big, mostly cuz it saved yost from using his top bullpen guys at all last night.

The better question is who was the last road team to win a game 7?

I specifically didn't post this in the O's thread...

my moneys on the cubs, but you never know. everybodys saying the right things which means no ones tipping their hand yet

the cubs situation seems tailor made for a guy like maddon

Cubs hire Maddon.

bum dealing right now. this is going to be excruciating to watch for KC fans until he's pulled. if he's pulled at all.

He's single-handedly winning this series.

yeah...he's only at 26 pitches through 2 innings and is looking very sharp plus the ump is giving him a bit of leeway on the corner....

what he's doing in these playoffs is amazing but will it have a happy ending....
