I would have liked to see Simien sacrifice. Feirisien had only given up 5 hits all season.I think Woody may have blown it there.

I hate the Manfred-Man in extra innings.

On Reks AB with the bases loaded and 2 outs after just walking Smith and going 2-0 on Reks he needs to take at least one pitch for a strike as the guy was struggling with his control.

So the lead off hitter goes 0-6 in a one run game - sigh
He needs to sit a game and get his head together

Heard Reks swing at ball 3 with bases loaded right?

Scherzer, Clemens, Pedro, Koufax, Nolan, Feller, Fergie, Spahn, Maddux, Seaver, Carlton
No to Seaver and no to Whitey Ford. Whitey Ford did have a 14 inning outing once though.

And it was an outside pitch. It would have been ball 3.

You learn that crap in little league. I don't know why when guys get to the MLB they think fundamentals like that go out the window.

No to Fergie and no to Nolan. One year Nolan had two such streaks of 5 games with just one game between them.

So, none of these eleven pitchers nor Whitey Ford achieved the streak that Walter Johnson, Bob Gibson, or Martin Perez have.

Hershiser has the best shot
Nope, not him either. But, he did have 6 complete game shutouts in a row including a 10 inning game.

They get an advantage in the count and with guys on base, their ego gets the better of them. It’s cooler to win with a big hit then a walk I guess.

i agree tho it’s dumb.
