Congrats to my National Leaguer's for the win (even if it was decided by the "swing off". I'm not really sure just how I feel about not playing extra innings. Let me explain.
I understand the primary reason is not to put additional wear and tear on the players if it really isn't necessary. However, with the both teams you basically have 18 players in an extra inning, the swing off still involved 10 players (technically 9 this year because Alonso wasn't needed), so I am in limbo on this one. Either way, I am happy and will take a win (you know I can't get one with my Braves these days, lol). I consider myself an optimist for the most part.... most of the time, so who knows maybe the Braves will go on a 40 game win streak.
Here are tonight's half of the quarter box cards from Grand Slam Collectibles
(1st visit).
BTW: did you know that Kellogg's just sold the company? (it was a trivia question last night, but the question made it an easy answer). We did not win last night.
Low and behold the same can be said for these 6 relic cards (I know the bottom are dupes). The Scherzer is a PC guy, and the Hurston Waldrep Braves card was certainly a needed Braves card, and it's a parallel too.
I'll finish the dig on Monday, see y'all in the shadows.
Yay, NL!
ReplyDeleteNot a fan of how it ended, and I think all the "reasons why" are just excuses for the way the game is mismanaged now. But the younger folks seemed to like it (though my daughter was really confused. :D)
I would’ve rather had a logoless photo than a picture of the back of the jersey on the Scherzer relic.
ReplyDeleteI was watching especially when the Twins players were in the game. I thought the contest to break the tie was interesting. Enjoy the night all!
