That was fun stuff. I couldn't stay awake for the Cubs game, I see there will be another in that series. 

One question for guys who watch this more closely than I.

That pitcher for the Phillies was mowing them down, until the two singles in the final inning. Was it the right move to replace him, with two outs, and not trust him to finish?

that was the worst baseball play i’ve ever seen in my life accounting for importance of the out.

You never saw me at the plate!  😂

I'd throw in Cole last year refusing to cover first base.

Give Doc credit.  Our bully was fresh to go extras because we didn’t burn the arms yesterday.

"Bully"?  

Goddammit, Bruin.  Don't join the mass of morons who use words like "natty" and "tuddy."

when they brought in kerkering i said, “kerkering?!?!”. i would have stayed with luzardo, he’s a much better pitcher and seemed like he was in the zone.

He’s new to the sport. 
2B covering 1B on a bunt confounded him.

I will confess that every time I see Andy Pages, I think back to last season when Bruin drunkenly pronounced that Pages was the leader in the NL Rookie of the Year race, and I had to google because I had no idea who the fuck Andy Pages was.

I think I would have done the same and stayed with him.

So why is it apparently bending in the wrong direction?  Need better A I?

Part of it/all of it has to do with how the frames are captured when a high-speed object is filmed. It’s called Rolling Shutter.

Rolling shutter is a process of image capture in which a still picture (in a still camera) or each frame of a video (in a video camera) is captured not by taking a snapshot of the entire scene at a single instant in time but rather by scanning across the scene rapidly, vertically, horizontally or rotationally. Thus, not all parts of the image of the scene are recorded at the same instant – however, during playback, the entire image of the scene is displayed at once, as if it represents a single instant in time. This produces predictable distortions of fast-moving objects or rapid flashes of light, referred to as rolling shutter effect.

It’s why you see things like this

I’ve never heard anyone use bully to reference bullpen 

I thought bullpen was outlawed cause it offends male bovines

Reminds me of the way wagon wheel spokes appeared to reverse rotation in the old western movies.  Varying difference  between wheel rpm and camera fps.
