Gamethread: World Series Game 7

My hopes:

1. A well-pitched game.

2. A well-played game.

3. At the very least, let the tying run come to the plate in the ninth inning.

Jonah Keri

The guys I’ll be watching tonight? Veteran Rangers bench coach Jackie Moore, and pitching coach Mike Maddux. How to say this delicately … Ron Washington has been a gigantic, freaking disaster. Go back through last night’s wrap-up and count the major tactical errors on the Rangers side. There are plenty of phenomenally smart people in the Rangers organization who swear by Washington’s leadership skills and enthusiasm, and declare him a great leader of men. Groovy. In some ways, that kind of guidance could be more important than a little blunder or two. The problem is that it’s rarely a little blunder or two. It’s a whole bunch of them — the kind of mistakes you don’t second-guess because a move worked out poorly. The Rangers are a supremely talented team that has been able to overcome those flubs, with Washington going all-in repeatedly with rags, then pulling inside straights on every river. He didn’t last night, and the Cardinals finally took advantage.

of course fields’ report included the fact that he couldn’t hit a 90 mph fastball down the middle too.

heartwarming move for the new Angel GM Dipoto
Dipoto also made another trade during his time as interim GM, masterfully outwitting White Sox GM Kenny Williams in agreeing to trade starter Edwin Jackson — ineffective, with a pricey contract — for fellow starter Dan Hudson. Hudson broke out as one of the game’s better (and cheapest) starters this year.

Meh, one of the benefits of living on the North Side, 3 floyds is on tap at a lot of places.

Thank you SSSers

This is a fun site – I’ve enjoyed it this year. With Jim as our leader, and many other contributors, it’s the first place I go for Sox info.

I’ll be doing some posts over the long offseason, but I’m already looking forward to the first game thread of the first televised game of spring training.

Baseball is life.
