Potentially the most unpredictable Playoffs ever

With Corbin on 1st, Suarez picks off Carroll but Harper waits on the ball instead of going out and getting it, and giving himself a perfect angle to get him at 2nd, but he doesn't come out and get the ball and his throw is basically straight to the runners back and high. Carroll gets in safely, should have been dead. Carroll then scores.

Who taught Harper how to play first base????

Ron Darling caught that too.

Harper's only been playing first since halfway through the season so they could DH Schwarber who is one of the worst outfielders in the league. Harper's been decent at first but not much experience with a play like that.

There are endless to nuances to baseball, which is why in the end it is by far the best sport.

Oh well. Phillies didn't hit the last 2 games and blowing game 4 comes back to haunt them. I don't know if Fox will be happy with the ratings of the Rangers Diamondbacks World Series.

As I said nobody outside of Phoenix and Dallas metro areas may watch it. Yawn.

Pretty amazing that both road teams won games 6 and 7 to advance to the World Series. I don't know if that's ever happened before.

Yah that is just nuts. No way that's ever happened.

Nobody but nobody could have pulled that off like James Earl Jones. What an actor and what a voice. Brilliant casting of the J.D. Salinger character.

YEP.....and true fans will watch.

Because as you said Baseball is the Greatest Sport.

Looking forward to watching this series.

Both teams fought, clawed and earned it!
