Strider Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 FOUR HOURS LATER...Boston joins Los Angeles in advancing to the LCS. Now we await their respective opponents. Will it be Oakland or Detroit for Boston and St. Louis or Pittsburgh for Los Angeles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LedZeppfan77 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 We are one step closer to that Sox/Dodgers series most people seem to be clamoring for... I would not count Detroit out with their pitching. I like them with Verlander over Colon all day. If Oakland does find a way you may be looking at a slugfest between Boston and Oakland. Both teams can give Boston hell. I will take the Tigers still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Glad I have the day off so I can actually watch the St. Louis-Pittsburgh game at 2pm today. I have yet to watch one game of this series, and since the winner will face the Dodgers, I want to get a preview of what to expect. The bonus is that the game will be over early enough that I can still go out tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul carruthers Posted October 9, 2013 Author Share Posted October 9, 2013 No doubt I still look at Detroit as being the most complete team in the AL and I like their chances with Verlander too. Whoever wins that series, I think the Tigers have a better shot at going into Boston & defeating the Sawx than the A's do. I'm also hoping that at the end of tonight, they will be raising the Jolly Roger in St. Louis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul carruthers Posted October 10, 2013 Author Share Posted October 10, 2013 Well, the Pirates had their chance to close out this series in Pittsburgh & blew it, now they are paying the price. You just can't kill those damn Cardinals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingzoso Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I am completely biased regarding the Cardinals (I admit), however, it seems that the St. Louis Cardinals are "historically" the best Baseball team compared to the other three teams that are also going to try and "win" their way into the 2013 World Series. Regardless who the Cardinals play in the World Series, They will win. It will be a Great Series, but the Saint Louis Cardinals are, and always have been, a tough team to beat. I could say more and praise Them more, but I will let the Team do all the playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul carruthers Posted October 10, 2013 Author Share Posted October 10, 2013 Verlander tonight for the Tigers, although this Sonny Gray pitching for the A's was almost unhittable in Game 2, so we will see how things go. Should Detroit advance I think they beat Boston in 7. If it's Oakland, then I think Boston hammers them in 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should Detroit advance I think they beat Boston in 7. If it's Oakland, then I think Boston hammers them in 5. I agree Detroit is Boston's worst nightmare due to the starting pitching. Oakland will not fall in 5 to Boston IMO. Because many of the games will be 11-9 affairs. They will likely hit each other to death. Talk about an offensive explosion, that is what it would be I would expect. I believe Boston would likely win but in 6 or maybe 7. I am standing by my prediction of a Dodgers vs Tigers series. But I am not sure of who will win? I am cheering for the Dodgers all the way. But the Tigers would be my second choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bong-Man Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Okay....I'm not going to claim that Tuesday night's Tigers/A's game was the best or most intense I've ever experienced, but it was damn close ! Still can't believe Austin Jackson's broken bat single. The poor guy had struck out 10 out of 14 plate appearances and literally willed that ball out to right field. Scherzer getting out of that 8th inning bases loaded no-out jam was outstanding....Max was fired up !! Leyland made some good moves in that game. C'mon Justin !!!!

paul carruthers Posted October 11, 2013 Author Share Posted October 11, 2013 Tried to sneak some cheese by Miggy Cabrera & he deposits it into the seats and the way Verlander is going, 2 runs might be all he needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
