I cheer for the D-Backs when they're not facing the Sox. I texted my uncle earlier, "I'mma give the highest praise (from me). Kelly was fucking PAINTING the edges and corners of the strike zone in a way I haven't seen since PEAK Pedro Martinez."

You don't get higher praise from me. LoL

Kelly was as good as either of them in this game.
I gotta give the Rangers some respect though, I don’t know how they got that one home run - that pitch looked unhittable.

Game 6 was wild, it looked like the Angels were going to lose to the Giants, but the Angels came back from a 5-0 deficit and won it 6-5, that loss seemed to take all of the steam out of the Giants.

I remember when that game started, I was like "oh shit, this is the end." I was in San Diego watching the game. I spent the last inning sitting in my car listening. And they hit that go ahead home run. And that was so damn sweet

Giants fan here. I am liking the Dbacks infield play.

And I always root for the NL team, because I was raised to believe that “Lo, the designated hitter is an abomination upon the earth.”

I had been hoping for a Baltimore Orioles World Series, but that idea got deep-sixed a couple of weeks ago.

But I like the small-ball attitude of the Diamondbacks. Plus, it's hard to root for the team of Bush and Cruz.
