World Series Game 2 Thread: Rangers @ Cardinals, 5p

"One! Singular sensation!"

Colby Lewis (1-1, 3.86) vs. Jaime Garcia (0-2, 5.74).

So where's all that vaunted offense? I didn't swallow all that hype about Pujols and Hamilton and Freese and Cruz just to watch six solid innings from each starter and largely effective bullpens. I want to see slugging and stolen bases and weeping pitchers. Hit it!

Ps - Fuck the Cards!

Hey, does anyone know the Ft. Lauderdale area at all? Specifically, where can I drink and watch the baseball game?

Josh, I really just honed in on what it is I dislike most about Tim McCarver: his propensity to OVER-analyze every minute detail (especially pitching) of the game instead of letting the game speak to itself. It's like taking a microbiology course versus just taking a walk in the park to enjoy nature.

Ps - where the hell is everyone?

Kyle Baker said...

I'll be alone, relaxing with my thoughts.

Kyle Baker said...

Baseball is boring - it's still 0-0. I'm going to switch over to soccer where there's a lot more offense.

Swell. Another Allen Craig blow job coming up.

Josh S. said...

If Craig ends up the World Series MVP, I may need some time away from baseball.

WHERE'S THE DAMN OFFENSE

Try to restrain yourself from orgasming, Buck.

@Orel

The Rangers are a goddamn mystery. They should have handed the Giants their heads. They should at least be trading hit for hit with the Cardinals. Yet they reach the World Series and immediately curl into the fetal position.

Go Kings!

Josh S. said...

Hey, Rangers won. Whattya know.

Kyle Baker said...

What's the hockey haps, fellas?

Kings beating Coyotes, with the third period just underway.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

2-0, is the score.

People wanted Karl Dorrell's head, and he had winning seasons. What the hell is separating Pistol Rick from unemployment insurance?

My name is Eugenio Velez, and I endorse this World Series.
