Didn't he pitch for our White Sox?

I made the gamethread yesterday and guaranteed the victory. Look what happened. In fact, I think you're inviting bad juju into the thread by doing this. Mods, can we suspend him until the game is over?

I guess this is one way to ron-proof the game threads

Nice try

Screw them and their fans. Cheaters.

Perfect. Fall apart, Astros.

Yeah that upper deck in Atlanta looked quite empty

His quote about having no wife/girlfirend/family has me fired up. What a lunatic.

He’s not on the Wild Card roster, so of course they subtracted him.

Here's hoping that Sean Burke looks like he did in his last outing . HOLD FAST.

Him and Newcomb seem like they have hit a dead arm period, which is super unfortunate

Red Sox aren’t good and the Cubs were too streaky this year and the Padres are on fire.

Never caught the Brewers and are now being dicked down by the Padres in a short series.

Boyd and Assad were their trade deadline acquisitions?

@WhiteSox2023 its time to admit that I was right and the Cubs trade deadline sucked.

https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/white-sox-blessing-pope-leo-030557428.html The Pope sent a letter to JR and blessed the the whole organization and the fans.

Would have been a crazy environment at the Rate even with the start time.

In the history of the 3 game wild card format the winner of the 1st game won the series 15 out of 16 times.

Both Houston and Atlanta had thousands 0fm empty seats. Having these games in the daytime certainly didn't help matters. Most people have to work for a living. It would have been better to have these games played in the night.

The current Martin scares me. I hope we don’t get to see him.

Old friend Bennett on our side.

I'm glad he challenged it. You get two in the post season and you can always ask the crew chief for one late in the game. Challenging Altuve was classic gamesmanship. He ALWAYS cheats on the grass to get a better angle as he's slowed down over the years. The final view showed his heel was on the grass as the pitcher started his motion. NY just botched the call. That said, now the cheater of all cheaters knows he's being watched and maybe doesn't get a good angle on a ball tomorrow that impacts the game.

He has a point though

Maybe the Cubs and Red Sox were both dragging from the extra travel to play that game at the Trop?

The vibes are not good in Houston: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7644992/2026/09/30/astros-loss-game-1-fans-frustration/?unlocked_article_code=1.FFE.RAml.BJpIH3UZK1Oc&source=emp_shared_article&smid=re-share-ta
