Pedro Baez

”I’m a fly ball pitcher”

MVP Lowe

Jeremy

10:49

Not the most important thing, but Baez followed up that HR by throwing the next pitch like 40 feet. The shortest pitch I've ever seen.

Dan Szymborski

10:49

OK Low, you can be Lau again.

Mike

10:49

Two things need to happen if the Dodgers lose this world series. Dave Roberts needs to lose his job and I need to stop following baseball.

LarryTheBerry

10:49

Neither of those things will happen, you know this

Mike

10:49

No man makes the same mistake more times in a row than Dave Roberts

Kiermaier's Piercing Green Eyes

10:49

Rays radio talking about Snell as an option tonight. Think he's realistic?

Dan Szymborski

10:50

I think you need a crazy high-leverage situation for that to happen

Craig

10:51

Wish I could have seen the roid era with these balls, while teams were secretly banging on trash cans so Bonds et al knew what was coming. That’d be entertainment.

Morbo

10:51

Can we do a poll of the best manager in baseball, because my vote is for Craig Counsell

To be named later

10:52

That reaction by Renfroe - so insightful

weezy

10:52

After the NLCS, which felt like a lot of balls in play, this series has felt nearly all TTO

Brendan Gawlowski

10:53

It is what it is for this WS, but I'd pretty disappointed if we're doing the four HR/g thing in 2021

Dan Szymborski

10:53

10:53

That was the first lead change of the World Series

Hunter Renfroe

10:53

“I am baseball player”

10:54

I know it is a joke, but really?

Dan Szymborski

10:54

Polls are more fun if they're amusing

Kwah

10:54

Best managers ever were Sam Miller and Ben Lindbergh, but you Fangraphs folk aren't ready for that conversation.

Eraserhead

10:54

I don't know any universe in which Tony Muser isn't the best manager

Dodger Fan

10:55

I want someone to vote Mike Matheny ironically

Dan Szymborski

10:55

Matheny's literally one of the elite in this poll!

Dodger Fan

10:55

Nick Anderson is warming up

Dave

10:55

Sam and Ben weren't managers, they were the GMs

Dave Roberts

10:56

Smoltz with the "Urias was dominating" revisionism

Dan Szymborski

10:56

A happy ending depends on where you stop the story

Hugh Duffy

10:57

I'm surprised that Ned Yost wasn't on that poll list, but I guess a World Series ring takes you off it.

Brendan Gawlowski

10:57

So there's a reason why Cash spams the big three...

Dan Szymborski

10:57

Didn't want to make it TOO easy

Morbo

10:57

Ugh, Mike Matheny got himself thrown out of a game on his birthday because he was late for his reservation at red lobster. Mike Matheny (@RealMikeMatheny) Tweeted:
I knew it was a ball the whole time, but I had an 8:30 reservation and a basket of Cheddar Bay Biscuits with my name on them #ballsandstrikes @redlobster https://twitter.com/RealMikeMatheny/status/1308586414334976001?s=20

Dan Szymborski

10:57

those biscuits ARE good!

To be named later

10:58

How can smoltz sound bored saying “this is an incredible game”?

Morbo

10:58

I know that Mike Matheny tweet is factually accurate because I wrote it

Craig

10:58

I wish Dave Stewart had made himself both GM and field manager at the same time

Dan Szymborski

10:58

and pitcher

Mike

10:58

Anderson has been fairly mortal recently as well

I had to go non-dairy a whole ago and cheesy red lobster biscuits were a big loss

Dan Szymborski

10:59

I have eaten an unhealthy number of Hershey's Miniatures during this game

Morbo

10:59

I have no idea how to embed a tweet in the chat
