MakeMeSomeFoodHo Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Mad max gets out of a first and third to start it off. deGrom should have been the starter...but it's scherzers home park so there we are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GorillaNJ Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 I watched the first couple innings of the game. Baseball is the one all-star game that I actually find watchable. It looked very much like this season though, homeruns and strikeouts. Could you imagine what a Tony Gwynn type player could do today in baseball?

He's one of those few players who could bust the shifts because he could spray the field. But iI'd bet even he'd be devalued because home runs rule.

I do not hate the guy, i was shocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakeMeSomeFoodHo Posted July 18, 2018 Author Share Posted July 18, 2018 That was an exciting all star game...homers galore. I've never seen an all star game like that before. Usually it's a 3-2 game, pitching dominates...not this time. But as usual the al wins. The world series is going to be a slaughter....the al team will demolish the nl team in a 4 game sweep. The playoff al teams are so much better than the nl playoff teams...at least until trades are mmade...but even then, the three beasts in the al are just so much better than any team in the nl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringe Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Yeah the All Star Game is a true bellwether for the Series. They might as well not play past the pennants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakeMeSomeFoodHo Posted July 18, 2018 Author Share Posted July 18, 2018 It isn't, I agree...bht the al has three teams with over 60 win...almost 4...and the nl has none. Also check interleaved play...the al dominates. But my point is that the American league playoff contenders are far better than the nl playoff contenders. And it's not up for debate, it's just a fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringe Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Series is all about pitching and defense. Tigers were light years better than anyone in 2012. I forget, how many WS games did they win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakeMeSomeFoodHo Posted July 18, 2018 Author Share Posted July 18, 2018 No idea, but i think they had a long wait for the series which is kryptonite to a team in any series Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
