They probably aren't showing the field on TV because there's so much trash on it

...are they showing the stands instead, with all the trash in there? Tricky camera work indeed.

Over-managing stat geek here was saying to everyone within earshot that the Os should not let Saunders go more than one time through the order.  I would have pulled him after one batter in the 3d, especially after Kinsler and Andrus had hit him the first time through.  No way I would have had him pitch twice to Beltre and Cruz, even if you kept him in to pitch Andrus.  What was the stat v. Kinsler?  10 for 24 with 4 HRs before that 2d PA?

Said that I would have had Steve Johnson hot for the start of the 3d, or would have gone to O'Day in the 4th to face 6 righties in a row.  At least I was right that O'Day would be dominant.

This shows Buck is smarter than someone on his 2d JD after a Newcastle and a Sam's Oktoberfest.

Also - how the fack do the facking O's keep winning?  Joe freaking Saunders shuts down the Rangers with 17 GIDPs?  Really?

Luckiest freaking team ever.  Makes me sick to my stomach.

I don't think I care who wins, but shouldn't this go in a new thread considering the WC is over?
