2013 MLB Postseason

I was going to point that out. That sucks for those in Detroit. I would just record the game and watch it the next day if I was in that situation.
Really?? What's the sense of watching a recording once you know the outcome?? Delayed to cut through commercials is one thing, but the next day is nuts!!! :eek:
 
I thought they were from Los Angeles.

I never questioned the statistics and history you have endlessly provided here, but honestly I don't give a sh*t about them because that's never been the actual argument.

What real fan wouldn't want their team to start a series at home, play a potential deciding game at home, get the last at bat in those games, and as mentioned earlier, possibly face an opponent weakened by playing extra games and travelling?? These are clearly advantages to the home team and as many have stated here are worth playing for. When you are more concerned about the 'risk of injury', maybe its time to go home.

Does every team with HFA win?? Obviously not. A lot of teams could have played every game at home and they still wouldn't win. But, to dismiss the benefits of HFA strictly because of the statistics and history is downright foolish.
That's one of the funniest arguments I ever heard. It is foolish that that all of the evidence shows my point is correct?

Dismissing evidence simply because you want to believe something can be considered foolish.

Nothing anyone has stated has been shown to provide any advantage, including playing at home, last AB, deciding games, seeding, and what fans want.

I watch already concluded games all of the time.

To answer your question, for the same reason of watching it live. To enjoy the sport, watch the strategies and athleticism, analyze every pitch and every AB, and enjoy the best sport invented.

Not on three days rest.

Since I traveled to Colorado over the weekend and just got back today, taking a day off work today, keep thinking today is Sunday.

Yeah. They probably will pitch him in game 2. Assuming they go.

Price is showing why he is an ACE. Even when he is not totally on his game he can still pitch good enough for a win in the most important game in the regular season this year.

If this "same" game was played in TB instead, it would probably be 2-2 because Longoria's HR would not have gone out in that park.

Wow! TB just stole a run there.

That run is probably the final nail in the coffin for Texas.

I am just now catching up on the game so my updates are way behind. I don't think that Longoria HR would have gone out in any other park.

Really? It's probably 390 where he hit it. There are many parks that short in right center.

After making the above posts I just thought of something. I want you guys to try to be as honest with yourself as possible. If anything, it should help you understand where I am coming from when I make posts about the Dodgers.

If this was a game between the Rays and the Dodgers instead of the Rangers and I made these same posts above, how many of you would assume I am crying, whining, or making excuses? You do not have to answer on here, but just think about it.

Now that you have thought about it, let me say this just for clarity and understanding sake only. I am a very analytical and logical person. I seldom make comments based on emotion (you don't have to believe me, but I am being completely honest). When I make similar posts about the Dodgers it is for the same reason I do so with any other team. My opinion is solely based on analysis and probability. Nothing more, nothing less.

I don't care if you believe me or not. I can assure you I am being completely honest. The only reason I am stating this is to avoid these countless posts of me having to explain myself or clarify after 5 people make the same false assumption.

When the Dodger playoff games start and I am making posts about the games about what could have or should have happened, or if I make a comment that the game is over with a 3 run lead in the 9th, it is for the same exact reason I am stating the same things about this game. It is solely based on my knowledge of the team, the game, and the situation through an analytical view. My comments are not emotively made for the purpose of excuses. It does not mean my comments always be correct. But it does mean that I am being honest.

So please stop with the "excuse", "crying", or "whining" accusations. I am not making posts or comments for any of those reasons. I don't make personal comments about anyone on here, so I ask that you stop doing so with me. Not because it bothers me, but because I would like to keep this thread about the games being played, not about any particular poster.

Thanks for reading and understanding.

Just worth noting if Tampa didn't gag that 7-0 lead to the Dodgers, they wouldn't have had to play tonight and would have 2 days off before heading to Cleveland.

Oh, well. Congrats to all 500 Rays fans. I hope Cleveland wins, otherwise we're headed for the ultimate October homefield disadvantage.
