GDT: Texas Rangers @ Toronto Blue Jays (Game 5 of the ALDS) #WeAreTheTrueBelievers

Did he make all three errors in that inning? I admit my memory is a bit clouded right now. Pretty sure Beltre botched that bunt at 3rd.

 

Two of them. And could have made a play on Moreland's error.

[baubau]

That's one of the biggest meltdowns I've ever seen. Texas fans will be talking about Andrus for years.

 

Till 2022 + option for another, at the very least by my calculations.

Unreal meltdown. That 7th inning was the craziest thing I've ever seen in a baseball game.

Texas fans will talk about the bat flip. there team does no wrong.

[Praxis]

I'm exhausted, incredulous, thrilled and exhilirated. I didn't think the Jays could win 3 straight. I've never been so happy to be wrong.

 

Kudos to the team and to the true believers on this board. Amazing.

 

Oh and rule 6089974125148794361649849416.2.3565.65656.1 can go f*** itself.

You obviously never played competitive baseball. Their is a respect to baseball that makes it different than other sports. You wouldn't understand, since you never played at a high level. (cue the "I played AA for the Pensacola Blue yada, yada, yada).

 

Don't make yourself bigger than the game.

 

Yeah i'm not a player, so are 99.99% of the people(the fans) involved in the business of MLB, they don't care about your stupid arbitrarily drawn unwritten rules of the game and your hilariously delusional notion of "respect".

Yeah, baseball is awesome.

 

I'm just glad the Martin mistake was inconsequential. It was the right call, but deciding a serie likexthatcwoukd have been awful.

Yet all the guys who play the game talk about respecting the game. Like I said, you wouldn't understand. It's okay, but it will never go away.

[bronson44]

I can't wait for that culture to die. Player emotions are a big part of sports, people don't pay money to watch robots play. I understand the Rangers not liking it but what kind of a f***ed up person has a problem with what Bautista did?

The players don't care about respect, they only care when they happen to be on the wrong side of these incidents. The Jays don't care because their guy did it, if Rougned Odor hit a go ahead homerun and did what Jose did the Rangers wouldn't care either. You're the sucker here, but you wouldn't understand i guess.

Jason Kipnis is awesome.

I just hate how certain celebrating is ok, while other parts are apparently super disrespectful. Bat flips are no good, but a pitcher emphatically pumping his fist and screaming on the mound after escaping a tough situation is cool. And it was fine when Rangers players were celebrating outside the dugout constantly during games one and two. No whining there. But a guy in his first postseason series, who has been getting harassed about what he hasn't done yet in the playoffs, in the same inning where he thought his team was screwed over, hits a massive home run in the deciding game of this series, and he can't flip his bat and admire that godly shot? Don't like it? f***ing pitch better.

[gruber92]

That was the most intense, dramatic Jays game i have ever witnessed, and that's going back a long ways.

[Angrioter]

Bautista bat flip >> Donaldson suck my cock

[bronson44]

Bautista bat flip >> Donaldson suck my cock

 

It's the f***ing greatest. I can't stop watching it.

[o2cui2i]

the error from Martin might have been the difference maker. It pissed off the jays and pushed them into superman mode and suddenly made the Rangers play so careful that they couldn't field routine ground balls.

 

 

baseball is amazing.

[Krylian]

Enjoy the win.

 

Some people aren't happy unless they're miserable.

Also you know what just died? That theory that the Blue Jays aren't a marketable team.

 

as the most hated team outside of Canada, that's the way they always should have. Also helps as most Jays fans have troubles with the Jays as frontrunners, if the team is hated they will be happier

[gruber92]

Lol at some people here thinking Pompey's slide at home was dirty or illegal.

 

Unreal..

[fatcowxlive]

Guys stop being babies

[comeon sense]

I hope Matt Vasgersian can broadcast the next series.

He is fantastic !

[JaysAllMighty]

f*** that this is #1

 

Not for me, it was the Carter home run, watching it live. But this game was great.

This is so ridiculous. The lines about respecting the game are always being redefined. You're pretty myopic if you can't see it. Players used to refrain from making slam dunks in basketball because it was disrespectful and now it's part and parcel of the game. These things evolve in all sports including baseball. If you think bat flips aren't gaining in acceptance, you're not paying attention or you're too dead set against change to even open your eyes.

Someone should tell hockey players that they're disrespecting the game when they score and celebrate.

[admin]

What a game, unreal. I had zero confidence in them winning this game by the way things were going.

Since that ball four called strike on Tulo, I thought we were screwed.

 

Jose is such a beast, that bat flip was amazing. If he wasn't on our team we would be livid, but being on the Jays it's probably the best thing in the world.

[tazsub3]

surprised there is very little commentary about the errors.....

 

Its called Karma
