It would be a particularly fitting time for that to finally happen

I mean, Nationals bullpen. I'd love to give that vote of confidence, but youneverknow.

One thing I've learned in my decades of watching baseball is that you don't count chickens, be they one-game chickens or a seven-game-series chickens.

Not a good start

Rodney playing 5D chess; trying to walk Springer to get a RISP, knowing the Astros hit terribly then. Genius.
Craig Edwards

Too many Ds

what's the oldest pitcher to get a strikeout in the world series
Craig Edwards

Jack Quinn was 47 in 1930.
Recently, Jamie Moyer was 45 in 2008. Rodney is only 42.

"only 42"

Meanwhile, congrats to the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks for winning NPB's Japan Series yesterday.
Craig Edwards
11:20
but is it Halloween candy now or not until it is given away?
hey

Is Rodney a danger on the field?

Back to School with you.

Rodney looking good now.
Craig Edwards
11:21
He always looks good.
11:22
Good defense from the Nationals and they get out of the inning.

Fukuoka beating Japan's equivalent of the Yankees (Yomiuri) makes me happy.

After that inning, what are the odds Hinch intentionally walks a batter ever again?
Craig Edwards
11:26
ever? 5%

Strasburg is quietly building quite a postseason resume. Quietly only because the team didn't win until now.
Craig Edwards
11:26
Weird how that works.
11:28
1.48 FIP and 1.10 ERA entering tonight in 41 innings. That would be worth more than two WAR in the regular season.

That roar you're hearing is coming from the metro DC area.

Craig Edwards
11:29

Does fangraphs have splits by hitters AB number in a game?

The next two or three games are in the NL - isn't there a pretty good chance at another IBB by Hinch?
Craig Edwards
11:31
good point.
AvatarDavid Laurila

Circling back to what I said about counting chickens, assuming that the Astros are dead and buried maybe isn't a good idea. This is a very good baseball team.

This game as bordered on comical for the Astros. Verlander, Bregman, and now Maldonado with circus plays, and not in a good way.
