GDT: Brewers @ Nationals

[saskjayfan]

I disagree, that was a Top 5 game of all time in my book. You just don't see atmospheres and crazy plays like those too often!

 

definitely a great game, not sure about top 5, but a good game indeed.

Man, Hader f***ing blew it! Grisham error was bad, but best case is it's a tie game with runners in scoring position on the road, so odds were against the Brew crew going forward any how.

I'd prefer to see a game decided by good plays rather than bloop hits and errors, but baseball offers something for everyone. I'm glad you enjoyed it, but something like our WC game vs Baltimore is a much better way for a game to end in my opinion.

[Krylian]

Never in doubt, folks.

Wow, nice job Hudson. Closing out a playoff game after battling his whole career.

 

At least we got stud Kyle Johnston in return. Struck out 10 per 9 innings in his time in the Jay's system

 

 

Wait no he walked 10 batters per 9

 

Nvm

Grisham must have been under intense pressure, replacing the best player in the NL, leading off, and playing in the first winner takes all game of his career. Still, that was an horrendous mistake that threw away the season. He won't be able to sleep for a while.

Strasburg is going to have to be Bumgarner and do everything for the Nationals for them to get far in these playoffs.

What? The Nats pitching is good, no?

The bullpen isn't.

SP>BP... I'll take SP all day. I bet they have those guys lined up to start.

What do you guys think about that Taylor hit-by-pitch? Looked like it got bat and hand at the same time... maybe bat first but its hard to tell. Lots of people online (especially Brewers fans) complaining and calling it one of the worst calls in the playoffs in recent years.

 

Thoughts?

It hit both at the same time as far as I can tell; you can definitely see his hand shudder... I'm not sure what Brewers fans are pissed about though. Hader was total crap the whole inning.

Fans are stupid. In that situation, the benefit of the doubt has to go to the batter. I think they got that call right.

I thought it might have gotten bat first, but far too close to be able to say a decision either way was unfair.

I was fine with the call, it hit his hand flushly. I was surprised Siddel kept on blabbing on about it, it was a good call
