When was the last time a guy literally won three games in a LCS pretty much all by himself? Big Pappi won at least 2 if not 3 games for the BoSox in '04 against the Yanks. Yep, good point. Though Big Pappi never had a defensive play like Cruz did today. yeah, not that I remember. Pappi's though was more clutch since they were in a MUST WIN situation after falling down 0-3 in the LCS.

Re: 2011 Major League Baseball Discussion Cruz is a lock for MVP at this point.

Re: 2011 Major League Baseball Discussion Wow, the Red Sox are pathetic the way they are handling Francona's exit. Stay classy, Boston

Re: 2011 Major League Baseball Discussion If our bats are hot and timely than he doesn't have to pitch a perfect game. Just can't fuck it up for our offense.

Re: 2011 Major League Baseball Discussion I saw the Tigers win this one, but at a cost (taxed bullpen, 133 pitches by Verlander). Texas still has the upper hand here.
Milwaukee stays alive and guaranteeing going back to Miller Park.

Re: 2011 Major League Baseball Discussion It shouldn't get to that. We should've played game 5 like it was a game 7

Re: 2011 Major League Baseball Discussion So are the Tigers going Scherzer/Fister?
Sounds pretty damn good.

Re: 2011 Major League Baseball Discussion Their list of achievements is adding up.
8.5 games back and beat Halladay 1-0 to knock out the best team in baseball.
The problem is that they are in the National League, where the pitcher still bats. It is a little hard to take seriously.

Re: 2011 Major League Baseball Discussion It slows down an already slow game. Baseball didn't have to compete with minute attention spans in the past.

Re: 2011 Major League Baseball Discussion Doesn't it speed up a game? (pitchers lead to more outs and quicker innings than DHs)

Re: 2011 Major League Baseball Discussion I meant that when the pitcher comes up, it is more often than not an easy out. In the American League anything can happen when the 9 hitter comes up. Could be a home run, could be a double play, it is far more exciting than watching a pitcher try to bunt. So they slow down the action of the game, not the actual time length.

Re: 2011 Major League Baseball Discussion There are a lot more strategies involved when pitcher has to bat though: squeeze, double-switch, how far you want to go with your pitcher when either behind or ahead, etc. In AL, we would never see a lot of the stuff like what Tony La Russa has done in this series. Personally I like having more strategies involved instead of just having pitchers pitch and hitters hit.
