Thanks! Looks like we'll meet again. Pedro did has job, and Anthony Rendon was the offensive hero going 4-4 with 3 RBI. He was a spur of the moment signing in September who I thought was going to sell after the season, but don't know I can sell him now after he got us through.

Hoping for a good series, I guess the winner gets perfect, and the loser gets to try again in diamond.

Yeah, it took me awhile to figure out what happened this morning. I saw I missed by a half game and the team that got in played game #163, but then I saw that team lost so I did miss by a full game. Get em next year! Congrats on winning the WC game!

Thanks! And good luck next year. You definitely finished strong, and fell just short. I thought you were going to pull out the WC again.

Congratulations to the Breakers! Despite out regular season success we couldn't touch you in the postseason. Good luck up in perfect, and good luck against the Mad Hatters. Hope our paths cross again and can get a little revenge next time!

Congratulations to AJ as well on the sweep and promotion. Well deserved as well!

Thanks NYY23! I was nervous about our series. We will meet again in the PT universe!

I don't know if I realized this too late, but the Stars are built with 1 switch hitter and the rest are Righties. Modified my starting pitching to be all Righties.

Looks like his stadium is set-up perfectly for his line-up. At home throwing righties for the final two games should help you.

How are we doing?

NYY #23 · 01-13-2019, 08:40 PM

And looks like Pedro did his job to force a game 7. Good luck!

And congrats Medici on heading to the Championship!

He closed out the series in 6, so his rotation should be set-up nice too. Looks to be a good series either way, but I have to pull for Virginia Beach to face off against the Breakers, since I had good division battles with each.

NYY #23 · 01-13-2019, 09:05 PM

Well, that was an exclamation point on Game 7. Good luck to you both, this should be a really fun series!

Damn, horrible end of the series. 5 super close games and then such beatings

Anyway, congrats for going to the Finals.

ajwindon · 01-13-2019, 09:12 PM

I don't know how we managed to pile on so bad in game 7, but that series was crazy.

You've got a nice team, and set-up your stadium well for your team. We didn't get a chance to face off this year, but I think you'll be a tough team next year.

Not sure if they are going to randomize leagues yet, but if not knowing my luck I'm sure we'll be in the same division next year.

Edit - Actually I forgot that four teams are moving up this year, so good luck in Perfect!

There is no one in the world I would rather have up in the Top of the 9th with bases loaded and 2 outs then Barry Bonds.

Medici · 01-13-2019, 10:11 PM

And we're off! Here's hoping for an entertaining Series with the Beach Bums!

Way to steal game 1 away off my closer with 2 outs in the 9th! Shucks.. ;-)

My heart was racing going into the 9th and seeing them string some hits together to come from behind. Then having to hope on Papelbon to not blow it.

After the first two outs, I was feeling good. Then with a 4 pitch walk, I could see the disaster coming... Can't be giving away baserunners to an offense like yours.

And your Ripken is hitting .390 and slugging.732 in the post-season! I sure hope he slows down some. ;-)

ajwindon · 01-13-2019, 11:38 PM

A 7 run 8th inning. This series is indeed going to be crazy.

Just scrolling through quick, but it doesn't look like Treinen gave up more than 2 runs in any outing, until giving up 5 in Game 3.

Don't think I'm going to make it through the end, I think I've got one more game in me before bed.
