If you need your mind taken off whatever it is we witnessed, and like baseball, go watch Game 6 of the World Series. Good game into the sixth as the Phillies just scored a run to go up 1-0. Nice if you like old fashioned pitching duels.

Dusty is now 9 outs away from a ring.

He’s been there before…. I would have left Wheeler in. 70 pitches and he was dealing. Said that before Alvarez hit a monster HR. But lefty lefty. BS.

He’s still the answer to the question, which manager has the most wins without a World Series ring?

Pretty sure if he takes Valdez out in middle of inning he won’t hand him the ball. But I suspect Valdez won’t come out for the 7th.

You know how it goes. Third time through the order… blah… blah… blah.
BC
Valdez isn’t coming back.
BC
Would it be bad to mention the 2002 World Series, where Dusty and the Giants were on the verge of winning the World Series, up 5-0 going, 9 outs away from clinching.
BC
6 outs to go. Hard to fault Dusty for going to Nares, who retired the side in order with 2 Ks.

Mark Appel’s old team vs his “current” team. Didn’t quite realize he was placed on the IL though.

Another Cardinal connection, Jason Castro, also not playing…

Three outs to go, on a two out bunt foul. WTF?

That was my point on handing him the ball. Russ Ortiz…..

Two outs to go.

One out to go.

Dusty Baker and the Houston Astros are the World Series champs. Happy for Dusty, even though I’m in Philadelphia and it is one dejected town.

Unfortunately, headed to Houston in a few days. Maybe they'll be happy!

Pat’s or Geno’s?
I was a long time Pat’s fan since it was my first and liked the authentic look of the building. Didn’t care for the flashy neon Geno’s look. Tried Geno’s and I’m not going back to Pat’s.

I don’t eat beef any more, so that’s a problem.
Nice town, Philadelphia. First time here since 2013. Helps that the weather has been delightful. I groaned about a conference in Philadelphia in November; alas the weather has been nicer than home in the Bay Area.
And as a bonus, I didn’t waste my money on free Stanford tickets to the WSU game.

Ok. Now who has the most regular season wins and no World Series ring?
