One game in the final home series at Wrigley, Reds outfielders lost at least three balls in the sun.

I just learned that 'boning your bat' was a thing.

Rendon hit one pretty hard, but Heyward had no problem getting to it in the gap.

And the Red Sox season just died.

Why the hell dont both runs score there!!!

Paul Swydan

Yeah, you could have sent the runner that ended up on third.

Wow, they're pulling Kimbrel.

Houston was not fooled by anything Kimbrel had to offer. That was stunning.

That park just got really quiet.

Carlos Beltran off of Kimbrel, who the hell would have seen that coming

Paul Swydan

Carlos Beltran is the man.

How many Sox players/coaches/management lose their jobs after this series?

Paul Swydan

5:02

Look, I loathe John Farrell. I think Carl Willis is a dope. But I'm not sure there's much they could have done differently today.

Sometimes the other team is just better.

Is it excusable for me to switch over to Cubs-Nats now?

Paul Swydan

5:03

Of course! As long as you're still watching baseball.

what's the article from this game about?

Paul Swydan

5:03

To me, it's all the fouls off of Kimbrel and the Sale/Verlander usage.

Craig Edwards

Carlos Beltran has a 182 wRC+ in 240 postseason PA. With 16 homers he's only one behind a certain Boston legend in 100 fewer PA.

It's eye-opening to see how a historic offense can make one of the game's best relievers look pedestrian

Brandon M

To be fair, I think the Red Sox put up more of a fight this series than I expected them to. After they went down 2-0 I thought the series was for sure over. Then for a time today i thought there would be a game 5

Paul Swydan

5:04

Yup, absolutely. And some of the credit for that has to go Farrell, as much as I dislike him.

Kimbrel only had 3 whiffs on 37 pitches

Somehow, against all odds, I have gotten more done at work this afternoon once baseball started and I could chat with Travis and Paul and Craig. So thanks guys for being part of a productive work day.
