That 7th inning was insane today, catcher throwing back to pitcher hits batters bat and run scores from third, 3 straight errors and a seeing eye bloop followed by a Bautista BOMB in the bottom half. and a catcher getting taken out by a clean hard slide.

No doubt about it...Craziest post season inning I've ever seen.

[Shortstop]

I can't not take New York tonight...

Let's Go Mets!

[Chi_archie]

c'mon Mets!!!!

[BigSpoon]

Blue Jays-Royals and Cubs-Mets are both going to be really good series. My bold prediction is that the winning teams will be wearing blue caps.

These league championship series should give us some great baseball. Lots of power hitters in these series'.

[EmpireMaker]

Daniel Murphy becomes the only NL player to homer off Clayton Kershaw AND Zack Greinke this year.

murphy

[Robber]

Let's go mets

Cubs dirty team and can't stand their fans

[Andy117]

Daniel Murphy is just about the last player in the world I'd expect to make a play like that stolen base in the 4th. It changed the game completely.

Congrats, guys! What a year they're having! Cheers!

I'm with you 100%, Robber! I couldn't have said it any better myself!

[EmpireMaker]

Mets would really benefit if they could get 8 innings or more out of Harvey tomorrow. It would also be great if he pitches well.

The Kansas City Royals pitching staff combined for a shutout against the Toronto Blue Jays last night.

Quite unexpected one would think?

Nice... haha

Blue Jays offense goes dormant. Pitching beats hitting again.

Indeed, Volquez came up huge for the Royals.

[Chi_archie]

Nice job by the bullpen

[EmpireMaker]

fukkin Price is the biggest choker in the WORLD

[EmpireMaker]

Price looked like Cy Young for 5 innings then one thing goes wrong (Goins uncalled error) and he folds up like an accordion.

BJ's stranded 12 through the first 7 innings

and now Murphy has homered off of Lester

[Andy117]

and now Murphy has homered off of Lester

He's making himself some extra money with these playoffs.

[BarkingToad]

Record setting day for David Price being winless in postseason.

[Robber]

Price has still never won as a starter in the playoffs

[Capybara]

Feel a little bad for Price, but at the same time, I must say that Toronto seems like a team of dicks to me. Anyone agree? Certain teams are likable and plucky (I think the Royals are one of those) and certain teams just rub you the wrong way. The Jays are one of those teams.

I said Royals in five and I'm sticking to that obviously now. I think the Royals get their championship this year, and it will be well earned.

[EmpireMaker]

I like the Royals the least of all teams left, and I don't feel sorry for Price because he's kind of a dick I like most of the Toronto team but not him and I'm sick of Tulo playing like shit (I know he was hurt but) Donaldson, Encarnacion, Ozuna, and Pillar are great and I'm a fan of them.

[BigSpoon]

The Blue Jays 0-2 hole feels like a much bigger deficit against the Royals even though its a best of seven. Probably because they are so much better defensively than the Rangers and their bullpen is lights out.

Such a gutting loss yesterday, Price was still making good pitches in that 7th inning imo. The Royals just did Royal things, so annoying.

Agree. I don't think they make the comeback like the Texas series.

Yeah, I thought they would ride their momentum into the ALCS after the Texas comeback.

Perhaps they're spent instead. Still a long way to go, though...

[Chi_archie]

been a pretty fun ride through October thus far

[BigSpoon]

Only three players have homered off Clayton Kershaw, Zack Greinke, Jake Arrieta and Jon Lester: Carlos Gonzalez, Giancarlo Stanton and Daniel Murphy -- but Murphy has done it in this postseason alone.

Wow.
