In an alternate universe where DP's head isn't up his ass and Stehly is at 2B (after EK doesn't hit into double play for Daly), DC is in right and that guy is out at home by a full step.

My first thoughts when I saw Murph having to make a throw. He’s had that same rag arm all year but we keep putting him in right

[40acredropout 2911]

Can't wait to watch Daly hit a lazy fly ball and a good ol' fashion Trey-K (TM).

This is the nightmare scenario.

What? Losing game 1?! We're still in this. 

[NorthLoop 14536]

What's really gonna be great is when we get a 1 run lead and Pierce puts Nixon in.

I think he meant losing game 1 and burning the bullpen down.

[Gut Wagon 8219]

Still in this thing somehow. Make it happen now, fellas. 

[Valmy77 13626]

Move him up Skyler!

[PatSolitanojr 532]

Setting up pretty nicely for a heartbreaking ECU loss. The announcers will really hate to see it. 

[NorthLoop 14536]

Leadoff bunt single! 

[dcar00 14997]

one batter too late.

It’s not on Ivan, he’s where he is supposed to be. He didn’t attempt to cut because he got called to let it go.

yes, Ivan went where he was supposed to.  it's just not where you should go when stehly is throwing.

Unlike Pierce, you’ve thought it through …

There was a time when Nixon came in and we basically could chalk it up as a W

Eh. Luke barely threw and Jared got out of that fairly quickly. We're okay. ECU is burning guys too. 

[Valmy77 13626]

Wooo! Let's fucking go!

[D3zii 3955]

Come on boys bring ‘em home!!!!!!!! 

[NorthLoop 14536]

2 on nobody out

It’s already bouncing before it even gets to him. Idc what Silas says, he should cut that everytime 

[Redneck Mutha 8224]

Come on Silas

[dcar00 14997]

Can I get an Earl Weaver please?

[BillyGoatHill 4421]

Skyler!

[ztejas 44286]

Hey Silas. See those trees? Break a couple branches off one of em.

Bad Hansen start and cycling through the pen.  That it's game one is just icing.

[NorthLoop 14536]

We bunting here?

yeah, we haven't burned anyone except Pete and my guess is he could throw Sunday.

[D3zii 3955]

There ya go!!!!!! 

[kingkoopa6 8748]

OOooO come on Silas. Redemption time 

[Redneck Mutha 8224]

Boom. 

[NorthLoop 14536]

Goddamn lucky bounce for ECU

[LonghornJudas 1138]

LFG!!!!!!

[chemHORN 1303]

That's bad luck.  That scores 2 if it doesn't hop the fence.

[NorthLoop 14536]

Damn I thought that was gone too

[SomeoneYouKnow2 250]

Fucking middle school field saved a run

[Bevo&Pevo 5529]

TEXAS!

[Tylerocks 2603]

clap, clap, clap, clap!!!

Zane might be done but we got a good couple innings from him.

Bad Hansen start is the real issue. We'll be okay. We have a lot of arms. Just have to figure out who has it working. 

[dcar00 14997]

bummer but we should score messinger anyway

[kingkoopa6 8748]

Oh shyt! There you go sir!

[Mo Horn 8939]

If that doesn't hop the wall, we probably score 2

[Valmy77 13626]

Tying run in scoring position! And our hero Mitchell Daly up.

Maybe it did maybe it didn't. Get these 2 home. 

[LTtxfan 50036]

SILAS DOUBLES... 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Yeah, I'll give it to Pierce being pretty quick with the hook.  Keeps em from melting down, and saves them to some extent.

But goddam, reliever roulette is nerve wracking.

If not for the Little League fence, we'd trail by just 1. But only a momentary pause in our victorious march to the sea.

These moments are what Daly lives for

This was my worry when I saw EK for DC. It meant we were going to get Daly in a crunch time AB. Great
