I never had a doubt :D

I knew our Bullpen would out pitch theirs :groovy:

To keep the negative spirit of this thread I will borrow from the 1993 Philadelphia Daily News:

:phil:   PHILLIES AVOID SWEEP   :phil:

Phillies win game 1 of the WS thanks in part to their...

*checks notes*

...bullpen and defense? :huh:

Should be a strike our a batter can just lean into 4 pitches with bases loaded and get a run

1 down. 3 to go. LFG!!!!!

Yeah. Doesn’t happen often but wouldn’t mind a rule change that makes it so the batter is OUT if he intentionally leans into a pitch that wouldn’t have hit him

You guys that cried the whole time are cute pretending that you are only doing it now to reverse jinx the games. 

Know your audience.

The negativity in here is powering the run.

Its been the theme of the thread since before the playoffs.

We are looking for negativity leaning towards funny, not a-holes.

If you want rah rah then make your own thread. You are boring as hell in this one.

Easy there. Don't get the locals hopes up. 

Stealing one of these first two games is so crucial! Can you imagine they steal another with Wheeler?

Not sheet and no there were people legitimately pissing and moaning every damn game they know who they are they even admitted to be wrong for doing so. 

So go somewhere else, brah

We don't want you here. We don't want you crying like a toddler right now during our celebration.

I believe it depends on where the ball is when it hits the batter.  I’ve seen it called (lower levels obviously) where a player leans into it and gets called a ball.  I’ve had to call a pitch a strike where the batter was leaning over the plate and leaned into it.  Everyone gets mad when it happens because we’re all taught that it’s a free base when batter is hit.

Most negativity here is not the same as in the Eagles GDT. Those guys say we lost the game while we have the lead 🤣🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

I can’t believe they won that game 

So I still think they should have started Wheeler game 1, BUT… winning this game with Wheels taking the mound tomorrow puts them in a hell of a good spot.

I wouldn't call him out. But a mandatory strike and strikeout if 2 strikes on the board. No matter where the ball was.

Imagine your team comes back from down 5 vs the CY Young Award winner and the bullpen of doom and all you care about is airing grievances over people who hurt your feelings earlier.

That's textbook pathetic.
