🍂 Postseason Player of the Day
Yandy Díaz (TB)
3-for-5
ALCS Game 5
#Rays better bring their A-game tomorrow cause the #Guardians aren't gonna go down without a fight.
Drew Rasmussen leads Rays to pivotal Game 5 victory over Guardians ⚾️ 🔥 #raysup #drewrasmussen #postseason #mlb @ibwaa.bsky.social
When you look up "game over" in the dictionary, you see Bryan Baker's picture. #Rays are one away from the pennant.
I turned off the broadcast, but I assume the broadcasters now have Cleveland in a superposition of being both 'right back in it' and 'backs to the wall'. #Postseason
Bazzana swinging at pitches that are so low they are almost in Australia. #Postseason
The Rays miss out on a double play with a poor throw to first.
The Rays had 51 poor plays but not errors in the reg. season, 10th fewest in MLB.
It's not the double plays you make... #Postseason
Possibly for the last time this season: #EXTENDSTEVIEBASEBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #GuardsBall #StandGuard #Postseason
🍂 Postseason Player of the Day
Yandy Díaz (TB)
2-for-5, 1 HR, 2 RBI
ALCS Game 4
I don't think Yandy Diaz's eye black is going to reduce glare the way he'd like. Unless it works by divine intervention. #Postseason
The Guardians do legitimately have the tying run at the plate, but these broadcasters have been saying the Guardians are 'right back in it!' or otherwise coming back for the last four innings, which makes it harder to take seriously. #Postseason
Drew Rasmussen Game 5
7 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 1 BB, 6 K
25.4% Miss Rate
43.5% Chase Rate
61.1% Groundball Rate
It's been a great start for Rasmussen through four innings.
He's up to five strikeouts and seven of the eights balls in play were on the ground.
I have no fucking clue what the umpires are talking about though, since the runner's lane thing only applies to interfering, usually with a throw. #Postseason
Ron Darling actually said something interesting and insightful! #Postseason
'All those months and years in isolation coming back.'
!? I don't think pitchers have to be isolated when they're rehabbing from elbow surgery.
