Popeman38 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 MLB can solve this whole debacle without changing a rule. Have double bags like in softball/little league, with the fielder using the bag in fair territory and the runner being required to hit the bag in foul territory. It works. No contact unless the throw is absolutely gawd awful, and then the runner has the right of way in foul territory. This rule will never be used again, ever, for as long as the game is played. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain James Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Guys, I'm so happy Bregman apologized for carrying his bat to 1st base. He's such a good guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing the "if" game in sports is dumb. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has any world series ever gone 7 games with all home losses?

Houston is playing like a team that thought their home field advantage was impenetrable. "Is this thing on? It's not working, wtf?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sportjunkie07 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Were headed to the hospital soon for our first baby. He will be a world series baby. My family are nats fans and I'm an astros fan since I live in Houston and the wife's family are all stos fans as well. I have baby clothes for both. I don't really know what to do. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaceman Spiff Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I just hope that after a couple games of umpires confusing balls and strikes and controversial calls on the basepaths...that Game 7 can be played without umpire drama. I just want to see these two teams duke it out once and for all (with the Nats winning, obviously) and no ****ing whining about blown calls or interpretation of rules, etc. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No fear whatsoever and no respect, nor should he, because he's a freaking clown who should have never gotten that position. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
