@@camrackley7073 he fooked that game 2 up. What a bonehead play. He’s such a good player too.

It's the over throw to 3rd base. It's a legit curse now in the playoffs.

[@2themoon863]

Seems like a lot of…weird?…important thing have happened over there at that third base area; you all sure there’s not some burial ground or curse there?

[@t0fuwaffles]

knorp immediately looking at the pitch speed any time he strikes out is hilarious. He about gives himself whiplash with how fast he turns around.

[@RPGArcadia]

Kyle's musical choices in game 2 were fantastic. At the 13:35 mark the music had been triumphant. The Eagles are flying and on their way to the NLCS. But with the final out of the 2nd inning, it goes to silence as the D-backs come to bat. Then there is an eerie silence for almost a minute. Suddenly, after the Heath walk, a menacing beat drops at 14:31. The following music plays out as if the D-backs are coming and their comeback is inevitable. Chef's Kiss

[@danhamilton9225]

It's a bittersweet effect for me these days. 😅

[@brendanquealy9550]

Knorp is without a doubt the smartest player in MLW. That catch and throw to second to keep Daniel at first - even up big - shows Knorp's mind is always working. Incredible play.

[@ericrizley4185]

That was seriously a dot too like the form and perfect throw isn't easy he made it look smooth af and the fielding by schema and him were some of the best plays I've seen

[@lairofmedi3421]

Without a doubt. Not just that throw from home to second, but he hit a single that went over Whalen in left field. Jimmy IMMEDIATELY ran towards second knowing that Whalen's first instinct was gonna be to throw home. 9/10 players take the single. Jimmy got the easy double. Insane.

[@joelespenshade7689]

That's vintage Knorp. What a player.

[@nobren3999]

Vintage? He’s still one of the best

The late season collapse by the eagles is honestly really sad. As a cobra's fan I hope they do better next year.

I honestly thought the combo of Schultz and Allen on the mound would be unbeatable. Knorp is just a game wrecker.

[@rsn2012]

[@miclvoorhis21]

The momentum change was absolutely insane. This will be an mlw classic

After Allen hit the HR in game 2 to go up 3-0 I thought this series was over and done. Heck of a job by Knorp and the Dbacks from that point on. Wow.

[@rsn2012]

Another excellent series. This league couldn't get any better. The personalities, the production, the music, the pace. I literally wait all week for Friday at 4.

Props to Dallas. He had a hell of a season. Sometimes the postseason is just too much.

[@deuceb8472]

Thought the Eagles got a bit too high when up and too low when down...emotions kind of got the better of them. Great comeback by the D-Backs rounding into form at the right time.

[@shakez003]

D-backs defense is so good. You rarely see a botched play or wild throw from anyone, and they always know where to go with the ball. Then add the diving catches and highlight plays from Knorp. Next round is going to be so fun to watch with Robles and Knorp. This league is becoming so entertaining man, great job!

[@anthonywillis6528]

Jimmy literally struck out on a KNUCKLEBALL and still looked to see if it was over the speed limit😂

[@Rubberfooted]

What a season from Dallas. Came into the league and quickly took it by storm. His transition into the SP1 for the Eagles was smooth to say the least. Hard to say if it was a “breakout” season for him considering his ROY win last year but he really put the league on watch with his often dominant pitching and terrific offensive numbers as well. When he was on, he was ON. Good defense to boot and you can tell how much he cares. Seemed his emotions got the best of him in game three but I can’t imagine just how frustrating it must have been. I probably would have struggled mightily in that same scenario. Definitely great to have a veteran like Dan alongside to help him improve even more. Anyways, Dallas is a total package of a player and I wish him nothing but the best going into next season. I understand how disappointed and even shocked he may be by the outcome of this series, but there’s absolutely no reason to hang his head. Did huge things for this Eagles team and there’s no way they would have gotten this far without him.

[@PrissyTinks]

You can tell Jimmy came prepared for this game. Some of the wildest pitching from the kid.

[@mtspiel]

Have you considered adding a pitch count for the current AB and a balls/Strikes indicator in the scoreboard graphic. I think it would be interesting to see how much the batter has battled during the AB. Still loving the league. Keep being awesome!

[@ryanbender7005]

As soon as Heath and Schema contribute at the plate these guys turn back into championship material

[@itsneight1260]

Man I hate that for Dallas Allen. What an insane regular season on the mound only for it to fall apart at the very end. Just like my Atlanta Braves :( Congrats to the D-Backs. They certainly ARE just as talented as any team and could easily come back from a 5-10 season to win it all. Its amazing how both baseball and wiffle ball are both sports of momentum. Getting hot at the right time is all that matters in the post season.

[@john20pb]

One thing that I think is underrated on the editing of this channel is the subtle background music changes to make things more dramatic. It really pulls you in and I love it.

[@BurmyPower]

20:41 has to be one of the greatest plays in mlw history to date. Absolutel yinsane play. Knorp is such a good player. His d-fence unmatched by anyone else in mlw. (except for maybe robles)

Postseason Jim is just something else

[@Rubberfooted]

There are too many things to say about how astounding and ridiculously great a wiffle ball player Jimmy Knorp is. Just put on a clinic in this series and carried his team in his play, but I’m sure also in his calm and collected demeanor as well. I’d love to know what he told his guys after game 1. This guy is a great leader and brings the best out of all his teammates.

[@mchonkie6448]

Schema was super impressive this series, you can tell he's been working. Big kudos

[@SlimPlum691]

Jimmy speaking skills are top notch too. Dude could be a broadcaster

[@charlesroberts7729]

What a turn around! Went from me thinking the eagles winning for sure to absolute dominance from the D backs. Unreal

[@bubbajesse77]

I love D-Back Wiffle Ball because they learn their opponents weaknesses through each series and they try their hardest to capitalize on that. They love doing this especially in the postseason to get going. Knorp is also a genius combined with superhuman athleticism.

[@MsBrookeWilcox]

Wow. This is my Dback team I've been seeing glimpses of all season, and middle of game 2 they came alive. Knorp was incredible in the field, 3 pop up catches and that throw from home to 2nd was a rocket. Also game 3 was lights out on the mound. Great series to the Eagles. Let's go #Dbacknation and let's get our revenge on the Quack attack! #Back2Back!?!?

[@bigcatx3723]

Man, I love both of these teams so much, it was hard to pick who to root for. But Jimmy Knorp. Gosh, he’s just my favorite player, I can’t help but root for him every time. Great series, can’t wait to watch my D-backs the rest of the postseason, and can’t wait to watch my Eagles bounce back next season.

[@0Architectdude0]

People may have wrote him off in the beginning of the year, but it's pretty evident now that Knorp is the best player in the league still and will continue to be for a while. He may not be the most lights out pitcher but his offensive power, defense, and especially his baserunning make him immeasurably valuable to this team.

[@evilabelincoln3787]

Knorp is easily one of the most likeable players in the league because no matter what he always just seems to be having a good time. Its hard to not enjoy that.

[@michaelstebbins1561]

As an Eagles fan, enjoyed the ride and am proud of this team. Disappointed that they had a full lineup for hitting. I feel in the playoffs they should have just put it to 3-4 players in order to get Dan the most ABs and to see Knorp more. But Pumped for next year!

You'd think these boys would learn by now, just hold on to the ball lol Also in game 3, Daniel needed to bat 3. Him, and Zach were clearly seeing the ball the best. Needed to get more ABs for those two to get some runs moving across.

[@zackaryhaselius2226]

Was also thinking that. MAYBE Blade in the line up too since weve seen him hit good before, but yeah. I would have Benched Landon no offense against him.

[@dougfreeman8212]

Dallas shouldn’t have thrown to third in game 2

[@ToadKart64]

Yeah, Dallas throwing that ball away to give them the lead straight up lost them the series because they were just so dejected after that and never recovered. Dan needed to start Game 3 since Dallas was rattled. And yeah, no reason to bat a 5 man lineup when your 4 5 are auto outs the whole series.
