Best choice the Nats made in letting that cyst pop and leave.

Anyone else notice a remarkable similarity to Game 6 of the 2020 WS when Cash pulled Snell after 5 1/3 and Nick Anderson promptly blew the game?

I know in both cases they were looking at matchups, but IMO Wheeler was rolling....the intentional HBP by Maldonado and the weak single up the middle by Peña was all he gave up.

Hi Mathew

When Wheeler was yanked in the 6th inning last nite, I told my wife (an avid Phillies fan) the World Series is over the Astros will win it.

History will be repeated....earlier in the Post Season, Wheeler was yanked in the 6th inning while pitching a 2-hit game and the Phillies
went on to looze that game, too.

Hi Ted - I had the same thought. Seemed like overmanaging in that moment.

A friend of mine texted me when it happened and said "Blake Snell part 2" so you aren't the only one who thought that. Unfortunately, it's the way the game is managed these days, especially in the playoffs. Third time through the lineup, as soon as the starter gets into any trouble, time to bring in the bullpen with what is hoped to be a favorable match-up.

Did Pete Rose ever make it to the hall? NO. Did any of the Black Soxs make it to the hall? NO. I can go on. Astroes cheated, and I'll never forgive them outta of respect for the others who cheated. They knew what they were doing was a big thing to MLB. Pay the price.

October 8th, 1956....I was a young kid then (played hooky) and saw this entire World Series game 5 on our small Admiral TV. Don Larsen was amazing.

And, so was Mickey Mantle that day.

Furthermore, you have to credit Casey Stengel for having the confidence in Larsen. Unlike these Manager's in Baseball nowadays.
