Won’t Get Fooled Again? The organist is on fire

Nick Dika

11:49

Bellinger takes big daddy hacks.

Dan Szymborski

11:49

I swear Ernie Johnson just called Corbin the third nationalist pitcher

Derek

11:49

"Big Daddy Bellinger" works as a nickname!

Belli Flop

THE FINAL COUNTDOWN

Cal

11:49

Dodger Stadium organist is legendary. He can seamlessly transition ANY song into a "Let's Go Dodgers" chant

Dan Szymborski

11:50

The rest of the team slowly filtered in, not making direct eye contact

Dystopian Future

11:50

Pierzynski is unbearable in a 2-man booth, btw. Girardi is teeing him up nicely so that he can stay on target more. But that kind of chemistry is what helps the booth sound much better, too.

Dan Szymborski

11:50

CHemistry really does matter in the booths. Ron Darling is so much worse when he's not on his home turf

11:50

Smoltz was actually good when he started announcing, but then ....... In other words, I’d give AJ a chance to get on our nerves eventually

Dan Szymborski

11:51

He got on all his team's nerves eventually

Hire Joe Morgan?

11:51

Who will break the ice? Someone will make contact eventually.

Dan Szymborski

11:51

I think Freese is still top 10 in all time playoff WPA

Dystopian Future

11:51

I think we just generally try to find ways to hate national announcers. Don't think that's going to change.

Belli Flop

11:52

My god Ruhle is on fire

Dystopian Future

11:52

Bar a few exceptions, like Vin Scully, obviously.

Dan Szymborski

11:52

Swing

Hire Joe Morgan?

11:53

Vin Scully put the kibosh on doing a game this postseason, right?

Dan Szymborski

11:53

All you need to get Vin to do a postseason game is have a giant net and some kind of weapon

Jimbo

11:53

David Freese is indeed 9th all time for batter's postseason WPA

Nick Dika

11:53

And an elephant-grade tranquilizer

Gabe

11:54

Who do you think has watched the most baseball games in history? Connie Mack? Vin Scully? Some random scout we've never heard of?

Dan Szymborski

11:54

Some MLB.com producer

Brian CashGod

11:54

don't even need a weapon - just find a billionaire willing to write a nice check to charity in return for Vin doing a game

Dan Szymborski

11:54

I like the Scooby Doo plan idea though

Dystopian Future

11:54

No, not a tranquilizer, you need a stimulant

Hire Joe Morgan?

11:54

I think Sam and Ben tried to entertain that question on Effectively Wild once, but I don't remember their conclusion.

I think they decided on a scout.

Nick Dika

11:54

Tranq is to get him into the booth

Brian CashGod

11:55

god we're debating how to best drug Vin Scully...

Jamie G.

11:55

Can the Nats afford to pinch hit for Corbin?

Nick Dika

11:56

It looked like Hudson was waiting to come into the game. Although their bench is pretty thin....

Derek

11:56

they have to pinch hit, right?

LFC Mike

11:56

Is Vin going to yell at “those meddling kids” Dan?

Dan Szymborski

11:56

I sure hope so

Martin Frydenlund

11:57

Am i wrong in thinking that the nats are at a disadvantage as this goes on. due to them having one of the worst bullpens of all time?

Dan Szymborski

11:57

Dan

11:57

walk off loss will be a nice change from losing game 5s at home

Brian CashGod

11:57

Adams, Dozier, Parra and Robles (who I think is hurt?) on their bench

Wire Fan

11:58

Joe Kelly... Buckle you seatbelts, this could get interesting.

Connecting…
