that bunt call by yost. what the hell

bumgarner is cruising now but his control looked spotty when he came in. why give him an out to move a guy to second with a hot hitter coming up. he sent his own teams rally to a grinding halt. now the royals look lost at the plate again

if they cant work a long inning against bumgarner right now thats it. hell probably close this one out.

im pulling for the royals but you gotta give bumgarner tons of credit. hes been absolutely unreal

yeah the book on madbum is you got to get to him EARLY... 9 pitches this inning...to get three batters out..not one ball..wow

i don't know that he can close it out though.....

[hutch]

I hate it when announcers overdo it..its a ONE RUN game guys...come on..its wide open for the taking...

[hutch]

whether to bring out madbum in the 9th or not is why Bochy gets paid the big bucks and  I don't...

I think he's tiring but he's still better than anything else they got.....I don't really trust anybody else with the 1 run lead....

[gaaaaaaaaah]

i imagine bochy lets bumgarner start the inning, but with a short leash? but idk how well their closer handles coming in mid inning

tough one. right now i think its hard to want the ball in anyones hands but bumgarner though

[shemptiness]

He's a zombie.

[hutch]

It feels like he's going to have to carry them to the title on his back...

Madison Bumgarner is legend. One of the greatest sports performances I have seen. Unreal.

He literally had to drag them across the line on his back....

At least the better city won.

It's fuckin insane outside.  It depresses the hell out of me, but I can't pass up a good party, so I'll head out there.

this was painful. dude was a total wreck, even with cue cards.

really tough loss for the royals. i had a feeling the game would come down to perez as soon as he was hit by that pitch early. sucks it didnt work out in his favor

nothing more needs to be said about bumgarner. those numbers speak for themselves. just unreal

how appropriate that sandoval caught the last out. if the nats payroll wasnt already maxed out id love to see them make a play for him this offseason. guys a perfect october player.

Three World Series rings at the age of 25.

I was going to say how appropriate that Morse had two of the RBIs including the game winning one.........he's a big game hitter....I'm happy for him....

also, worth comparing how Bochy left Bum in with a guy on third due to a single in a one run game while Matt Williams took out Jordan with a guy on first due to a walk in a one run game...
