LCS Game Thread: Rangers @ Tigers; Brewers @ Cardinals

by Eat More Esskay on Oct 12, 2011 6:45 PM EDT

After a delay of about two hours, the Rangers and Tigers game has started at the time of this post. Matt Harrison pitches for the Rangers and Rick Porcello pitches for the Tigers. This game is on FOX. Presumably they will not cut away from the game for the X-Factor, although we can't be sure. Will Joe Buck show any emotion whatsoever? I won't hold my breath.

In the NLCS, first pitch for the Brewers at the St. Louis Cardinals is scheduled for 8:05pm EST. This game will be on TBS. Due to rain, the start time for this game may be delayed. The usual suspects are talking about how MLB doesn't want to start the game and have a rain delay that knocks out the starters, so they will be cautious about the rain being gone.

Free agents-to-be Albert Pujols and Prince Fielder will head things up for their respective teams. There are some other guys on these teams but they don't matter. The NL is ridiculous, man.

This is what Fox gets for scheduling new programming during the playoffs

Giraffes have absurdly strong necks.

I don't get why they would make the commitment if they don't really want to follow through on it?

Dollar signs, I guess, but it does seem like a shame. Another network has got to bring more value to the table for the MLB brand itself – and you know, the actual baseball games. Plus no Joe Buck.

I wish NBC would take back the playoffs

And I wish they would stop moving them to cable.

well

first of all he got doubled off 2nd base in the top of the first inning and then in the bottom of the first he missed a very catchable looping line drive to drive in the first run. Also when he got doubled off he did the brian roberts head first dive where you slam your face into the ground before you get to the base.
