The D-Backs reliever got a 2-RBI triple.

Right.

and he didn't ask to be traded here. Everyone knew he preferred pitching in the NL because he said he did. 

You’re correct on that.

In 2010 Greinke could have blocked trades to the Yankees, Red Sox and other large-market clubs but not to the Rays or other small-market franchises.

And now he's given both runs back via back-to-back home runs. This is a crazy game.

[Lou]

This is tough.

Arizona - born there (but no deep loyalty) + Black

or

Colorado - Torey Lovullo, Bruin

 

going with a Rodney blown save then DBacks win it in 12 innings

When I can watch and listen to all the games for free? 

Yes, I'll take free. 

Do you have ESPN at home on cable Tv or sat TV?

No TV playoffs on ANY ESPN app now. The last ESPN baseball game was last night.

Don't forget the most important factor: Arizona has a better chance of beating the Doyyers in the NLDS.

Of course I have ESPN. I also have TBS. Doesn't everybody? 

I also have FireTV where I get everything and everything to watch with no monthly payment. Last night I watched Ali-Frazier, the Thrilla in Manila, followed by Ray Donavon and Narcos.

One of the things he said that got under my skin were: He said he was a mercenary.

He'd pitch for a last place team over a first place team if they paid him more. 

He said he plays for money, not winning. Pissed me off.

Saying that, and what he did to the Angels pissed me off about him, that I wouldn't care if he got a line drive in his Velociraptor looking forehead.

Leaving the stitches from the baseball imprinted on his head would only give me a warm fuzzy feeling.

He played us like a violin.

Then, you're not watching for free. You had to authenticate to get THE ONE ESPN PLAYOFF GAME FOR "FREE". 

But your cable or SAT contract continues with ESPN and TBS.

Not exactly free..................just alternative facts, eh?

That was actually my first thought.

btw, the dogs have a losing record against both teams

Just like Teix. I've never gotten over it.

What are you talking about? When did I say I'm watching this game on cable? 

Assuming alternate facts, eh? 

[Troll Daddy]

After watch the starting pitchers in the wild card games ... I have new respect for Nolasco

[Stradling]

Played us?  Give me a break.  They were traded, they didn’t control that.  They both played well for us.  Then they signed elsewhere.  They didn’t play us, that’s fanspeak for they hurt my little feelings.

He didn't play us at all.

He never once said he would sign here. Never came close to saying that.

If these pitchers can only last a couple of innings, Nolasco wouldn't have made it out of the bullpen 

[WeatherWonk]

You had to PAY for ESPN on cable or SAT to watch it on your phone or tablet.

I never said you were watching it on cable. I just said you had to subscribe to ESPN to watch the one playoff game on the ESPN app.  I figured you were watching in on a 5,5 inch screen. Which, of course, is very exciting for some.

Me, I'm watching the games in 55 inches of 4k beauty for 20.00/month. And for only one month. And on my mobile devices, if I want.

The difference is ALL the WC teams can score runs. A starter with a 4.5 ERA can actually win 12-14 games.

[the dude abides]

Wow.  what a game.

Love October baseball.

I'M NOT WATCHING THIS GAME ON THE ESPN APP, YOU ASSUMING DOLT!!!

only 55"? perhaps when you save up a little cash, you can get a real television. 

[fan_since79]

Rodney will have at least a three-run lead now in the 9th. Let's see if Mathis can add on another run.
