From that angle, you don't see that Papelbon was jawing at Harper well before Harper said anything back.

Papelbon is a raging cunt.

Was a very good under-utilized closer for Phils but enough is enough! Guy is a bad person! Seriously surprised Nats were the team that got him and we see it didn't pan out!

 

[Tron]

Papelbon out for the remainder of season

I see today is the anniversary of The Catch made by Willie Mays.

I am only a tiny fraction as blown away by that catch as it seems I am supposed to be.

Sure, nice enough catch I guess.

 

[Tron]

nevermind

 

[FairWarning]

Not everyone gets it Muddy, that's ok.

 

[Archie]

it is an extremely over rated catch

 

[Archie]

what about this one?

 

[Archie]

here is a top ten all time defensive play for me that I only first saw earlier this year. Which amazed me as a passionate fan for the past 30 years.


thus I officially dub it the most under-rated play of all time, at 10 sec mark

 

[FairWarning]

it is an extremely over rated catch

Really ? It swung the series.

There was a stretch early this season when Kevin Pillar was making a catch I was more impressed with than The Catch every game for like 7 games in a row.

 

[Tron]

Kevin Pillar is slower than Mays and takes inferior routes to the ball so his catches look more difficult.

How does matt williams still have a job?

I'm guessing he won't on Monday.

 

[MrMonkey]

Wow! Still lots of intrigue with teams jockeying for playoff positions! Every game does count! Nice to see the starting times of games all the same! Smart move!

 

[Mudcat]

Yap.
