    This wasn't a high-leverage situation.

    ?

    no need to be that guy; all I said is to look at this objectively, not as homers and to not just think we got this in the bag. Don’t be that guy

    I just hope Tucker's words about wanting it over in 4 don't come back to bite us. We'd never hear the end of it.

    Here’s the thing…. It doesn’t hurt. Verlander for several post seasons has proven to be an absolute fraud when it matters. I hope to god he doesn’t get a contract from Houston if it means losing players in the future.

    0-5 in World Series Game 1's. WHAT'S THE POINT IN HOME FIELD ADAVNGE IF THE ASTROS ARE GONNA SCREW IT UP LIKE THEY DID IN 2019 AND 2021?

    I didn’t say it was. But it absolutely ****ing was. Heart of the order in extra innings in the World Series. You’re right it was ho-hum.

    I don't understand why Dusty didn't trust what his eyes were seeing when JV clearly was getting shelled and didn't have it. Blind hope the Phillies batters were just getting miss? Old-school managing has made him winless in World Series so far.

    WS homefield is useless with 2-3-2 format.

    Left Verlander far too long.
    Bats fell asleep.
    Philly grinded.
