Castellanos saves his nice catches for the 9th innings of postseason game ones, apparently.

Ballpark is absolutely stunned.

This will be a fun win probability graph game when it's all said and done

So if the Phils win, then the 106 win Astros join the list of “chokers” and no dynasty.  Is this mainstream the narrative?

Also analytics. Because

I wish we could stop with these dugout interviews
AvatarDavid Laurila
12:08
100%. No idea why anyone would think that's a good idea.

I don't like in-game dugout interviews...I just wanted to say that.
Justin Choi
12:08
The analytics say don't give up go-ahead homers in the 10th
Bohm Lettuce
12:08
Analytics are when a team is consistently good in the regular season but doesn’t win the World Series every year
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:08
See, David does great interviews because he asks questions that results in something interesting for people to read about
12:09
These types of interviews are just pointless
Becuase they rarely elicit anything the least bit interesting
AvatarAlex Sonty
12:09
Nobody wants these guys giving mid-game interviews.
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:09
"Tell me Joe Slugger, how did hitting the game winning home run feel?"
AvatarAlex Sonty
12:09
Hell, I don't care what they ever have to say.
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:09
"It felt great!"
Wire Fan
12:10
I don't know... I thought JT might say "I was hoping to make an out"
Justin Choi
12:10
Yeah, it's like, what do you expect the player to say? They're mostly playing on instinct, and it isn't in their best interest to reveal strategy
Marsh’s Beard
12:10
Yeah but what would a rod say
Kwah

The cowards at FoxSports refuse to air a live Fangraphs chat feed in a quadrant of their telecast.
AvatarDan Szymborski
12:10
At least A-Rod may say something batshit
Hugh Duffy
12:10
Ya'll are wrong. The in-game interviews are great.
AvatarDan Szymborski

Well you've been dead for a century!

Baseball just continues to be totally clueless with regard to what good publicity is. "Let's shove a camera in a players face in the middle of the game, thats a good trick!"
Michael Scott
12:10
But Ken gets to show off his bow-tie.
Arod
12:10
Thats an odd number lead. So the Phillies should be feeling good.
benjy
12:10
do they tell the players that they need to cut their celebrations short so they can go talk to ken? while he just stands there weirdly in the dugout?
Will H.
12:11
someone will say something crazy eventually, and it will be fun like "Saw meat and carved it up"
AvatarDavid Laurila
12:12
Roughly three hours ago (forget if it was here or on Twitter), someone asked what there will be more of: Astros runs or Phillies hits.
Marsh’s Beard
12:12
Arod usually says solo homers are OK
AvatarAlex Sonty
12:12
Solo HRs or three-run HRs. Two-run HRs take a guy off the bases.

I’d rather see an interview with a player from another team who’s at home drinking
