More feel-good photos from our dear division rivals.




I am definitely going to photoshop Satan with the "greatest season ever" contract into this photo next to Raleigh

Pretty amazing - Toronto's last home game 7 was also in the ALCS, 40 years and 4 days before last night's game - October 16,1985. They blew a 3-1 series lead and lost to Kansas City after going 99-62 in the regular season.

Game 7 was old school baseball - Royals started Brett Saberhagen in his Cy Young year, Blue Jays started Dave Stieb, ho had led the league in ERA. Royal pounced early, never trailed, won 6-2 on the road.

For anyone with access to MLB.tv, if you want to hear the Mariners announcers get punched in the gut on the Springer homer, the at bat starts around 3:49:00

Anyone have a tweet with the mariner's audio and the Springer Dinger video? Don't have MLB.tv and want to listen to disappointment this morning.

TIA!

I think Bryan Woo is going to be the next target of my disdain. He's got a smug, punchable face.

Any one else uber tired of how the announcers fawn all over Julio R? His lifetime stats - reg season and playoffs, remind me of Tucker, who was never held up as the second coming like Julio is.

One more favor for this social media challenged person

The last out(s) radio of sea men with video. If that exists.

Treating these like copium.

I'm taking more joy in Soyattle losing this series than I should. They were up 2-0, and going home for 3.

Loved seeing Springer with the dagger. It brought back some great memories while, at the same time, some sadness the Astros couldn't be there.

Nice. I like that.

The biggest reason I have more joy is specifically springer hitting that bomb. One because of his stros days. Two because the reaction from their fans, media, etc when they drilled him in the knee. Especially considering their total hbp over the year.

Springer saved me from rooting for the Dodgers in the WS.

Makes sense, rumored interest at trade deadline.

Lopez makes so much sense. 2 years left on his deal. Expensive, which means he'll cost a little less in prospects, and there will be fewer teams in competition for him.

He'd basically eat up our available payroll, but he's exactly the type of player I would spend it on. Go cheap with another SP, RP, and a vet catcher.

The only issue is, you have to feel a very high confidence in his arm to last 2 seasons. We can't give up prospects and tie up payroll for a guy who needs TJ after he exits a game in early May.

Thinking about all those sad Seattle fans warms my heart. This is what happens when your team has never done **** and still tries to act like Deebo on Friday. Payback's a mofo.



May have to buy a Springer/Jays jersey now.

Their Achilles heal (road games) finally got them. In regular season they were terrible on the road (9 games under .500) until their hot streak in mid Sep where they went 7-1. Reversion to the mean spelled their doom.
Good riddance seamen.

These are great and their tears are delicious. Enjoy the continuation of one of the biggest draughts in professional sports history.

Click isn't the GM or even assistant GM. He didn't really have anything to do with the current roster construction FWIW.

Still, good for him.

The Seattle dugout looked like the Phillies dugout after Yordan's game 6 bomb...they knew it was over.

I'd like for Dana to find a taker for Walker and then sign Naylor to play 1B.
