You'd be salty if your 100 win team, who already won, is being penalized by being thrown into a short series with an 84 win team, who's only there because the league continues to expand things. And true, the Dbacks won. So did the "choker" teams...that's why they were higher seeds to begin with. But it's the arbitrary drawing of lines that gets me. We essentially say "oh these wins don't win crap, because they occurred here, but these do now that it's October". Trust me, when you have everything to lose and nothing to gain as a higher seed, you'll change your tune.

[@mallavia]

@draneym2003 cry me a river. The dodgers got humiliated. A extra couple days rest is not an excuse to get swept. If you can’t win in the playoffs then you were overrated in the regular season. I agree it shoulda been a 7 game series, but the dodgers weren’t coming back from 3-0 even if it was

[@mrrodriguezHLP]

Real question win or lose the series: will they pay their players like teams that try to win every year, or have a Marlins championship-like fire sale? Baseball owners can be the most miserly of sports owners and the Dbacks finding diamonds in the pool filter seems to reinforce the cheap behavior of “small market” teams.

In 1989, Jim Rooker said during a broadcast in a Pirates' road game in Philadelphia, said "If we don't win this one, I don't think I'd want to be on that plane ride home. Matter of fact, if we don't win, I'll walk back to Pittsburgh." after the Pirates had such a huge lead after the first inning (10 runs) that he believed it impossible for Philadelphia to turn it around. Which they did and the Pirates lost 11 to 10. Nobody let him back down, and he indeed walked the entire way from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh, all 300 plus miles of it. Chris Russo said he would retire on the spot if the Diamondbacks beat the Phillies in the last two games, and backs down, because he is not a man, he is a child in a man's body, that has zero style and zero credibility in anything he says, has said, or will say, and the only reason he has a job is because he talks so much that people just tune in to hear whatever crazy thing he might say next. He is not a sport journalist, or a journalist of any kind, but a clown. And any show that has him, as a main broadcaster or as a guest, also has zero credibility.

[@ClassicJukeboxBand]

I followed the NLCS, and what most fans don't realize is that you don't win the world series by hitting home runs. You don't win it by having enthusiastic fans. You don't win by excessive celebrations. You win it by solid pitching, timely hitting, defense, strategy, sometimes manufacturing runs, and keeping a level head. The Phillies thought they could win the world series by feeding off emotion, and hitting home runs. They were sorely mistaken. How many times have you seen Philadelphia hit multiple home runs in a game where the crowd is rocking, the players are high-fiving each other, and they get shut out the next game? During the world series last year, the Phillies hit five home runs is a game, and the next day they got no-hit. This is baseball. You have to have a complete team to win. You can't just exhibit enthusiasm, hit home runs and win the world series. Screaming fans don't win world series. Neither do players who try to use adrenaline to win. Eventually, the adrenaline wears out, and you lose... BTW, the Phillies hit 11 home runs in NLCS against Arizona, but only drove in 12 runs with those home runs. What does that stat tell you?

[@rustyshackelford4224]

Too many solo shots, not enough hits or manufactured runs. The Phillies batting style is way too one dimensional, it's Home Run, Walk or Bust. They've been doing this exact same strategy during the postseason since 2008, except back then, they actually had quality starting rotation and the best bullpen in the world to back up their home run or bust offense. So what do you think about Team Japan during this year's WBC? What did you think about how that team functioned?

[@Demoralized88]

I seriously don't understand how HRs and Walks (OBP) have become so overvalued in just 2-3 years, especially when they're both desired together. This year in particular really took a leap in terms of terrible batting with tons of players literally not even trying to make contact and just whiffing on power swings. Luckily I'm only interested in the stats and don't watch games as there's far less action with the TTO explosion. First I think it's preposterous to give the same value to any Walk as a Single, yet that's what has happened and it should be immediately apparent why it's wrong. There's so many solo HRs and nobody moves on bases; it's incredibly ease to inflate your stats by not swinging and taking some Walks as they're basically triple-counted. Batting

Arcia losing his cool from the fans getting to him is one of the greatest things I've ever seen. I guess it'll just be difference in opinions. I played high school baseball as a pitcher, and when we traveled to South Louisiana for games, and there would be high school kids pull up next to the fence in their pickups with a case of beer while we were in the outfield during warmups and heckle us, then they'd move to the stands and heckle us while we were pitching.

Seeing the Phillies fans meltdown was amazing. They celebrated like they had already won it all, only to be silenced and humbled.

The newspapers, radio personalities, etc. were already congratulating Brazil. The manager of Uruguay saw this slander and showed it to the team riling them up. Brazil would lose 2-1. Also, the World Cup was held in Brazil that year. People at the time describe the stadium being the quietest place in the city when the final whistle blew.

[@bryancadents3559]

I am in the "was not intentional" camp. Stuff happens. HBPs happen. 2 runs down in the 8th in a tied ALCS is the most illogical time to take out your grudge that way. Doesn't make sense. There hadn't been anything to retaliate against the whole series, except Garcia's pimped HR earlier in G5. But that was innings before... who cares?? The idea that he hit him so they didn't have to pitch to him... there's also the intentional walk. The idea of intentional doesn't make sense, and it was an arbitrary decision by the umps - one they got wrong. Garcia was the one shoving people and throwing a tantrum afterwards. Maybe LeClerc wouldn't have gotten iced if Garcia had just taken his base. I think Rangers would have won G5 if Garcia just hadn't decided to make a scene.

[@leafinagust2775]

DBacks fan. My Grandparents are Brewers fans, so I was just glad to see them play each other. Then the Dodgers series I didn’t even actually watch, I hate the Dodgers more than any other MLB team and the fact that we swept them will bring me joy for the next year. I didn’t expect us to win the NLCS, but once I saw Pfaadt was starting game 7 I was like ‘Holy shit we have a shot’. From what I’ve seen of him he’s looked great, and I’m just shocked one of my sports teams (DBacks and LA Chargers) finally make a big finale. Snakes Alive! 🐍🐍

MLB really needs to do something about away fans buying up 20k or so seats from the home teams stadium, which brought up thousands of complaints online both against the city of Philadelphia and the MLB. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if a lot of these fans ended up in jail for either disorderly conduct or assault. This kind of behavior should not be condoned, and should be brutally and relentlessly looked down on, and shown that this kind of behavior only makes it worse for yourself, your city, and your teams reputation.

[@noelleelizabeth9991]

I'm a Phillies fan, this post season run has got me mad in 100 different ways and honestly all of it is directed at the team and fanbase. It's like we all got way too cocky and complacent after beating Atlanta. First of all, Stubbs was an idiot for saying he was gonna celebrate in the Diamondbacks' pool, like way to give that team motivation to NOT let it happen. Plus the other fans buying seats at Chase Field just to make sure they are empty was shitty behavior, I'm embarrassed of those people. And of course the sudden collapse is just baffling. I was so mad with the way the team just laid down and died out of absolutely nowhere that by game 7 I was hoping they wouldn't win. If you blow a two game lead and then follow it up by shitting the bed at home so hard that people leave before the game is over then you don't deserve to go to the World Series. And don't get me started on how much everyone is paid, I hope they enjoy sleeping on their piles on money in the off season, ugh. Last year's loss in the World Series sucked, but at the same time nobody expected them to make it that far, it was a true Cinderella run. This year the expectation was that they'd take what they learned from last year's post season and actually win this time, a true redemption arc. And for the first two rounds, it actually felt like it was gonna happen. I hope they actually learn from what happened this time and truly come back to win it all next year, there are no more excuses.

[@TheHENpp]

Good to know there are Philly fans who are self aware. Good on you. Should Philly win it all next year, however, the way your fanbase and players wear that could be very interesting considering the collective history of behavior.

@@TheHENpp remembering how we all were after the 2008 World Series (or more recently how everyone was after the Eagles won the Super Bowl in 2018) I don't see us becoming that much more obnoxious 😂 our teams never stay good for long, and we're always the first fanbase to turn on our own players once they stop delivering. I feel like we talk a lot of shit because we get a lot of shit from everyone else, it's hard to know where it all began lol. Philly people love to turn up and get rowdy but it's mostly in good fun, we only reserve true vitriol for the rivals.

[@thatguyuknow1837]

Something that I think is getting forgotten is the fact that in the beginning of August the Diamondbacks were only a few ganes out of the 1st spot of the NL West but lost 9 games in a row and ended the year on a 4 game losing streak, they are better than their record shows (obviously since they are in the WS) but are more like an 90-87 win team imo. The Rangers actually benefited from not winning the division so that they coukd have 4 road games against one of the worst home teams in the league tied with the Red Sox and Pirates for 10th worst, teams like the Guardians and Mets had a better home record but their overall record was atleast 14 games worst than the Astros (not to mention they won all away games vs Rangers but lost all home games). In fact the Astros went 1-5 in home games this postseason (not great)

[@jessie_the_artist]

If you are ever bored, watch the character development of a philly fan in the span of 5-6 days. They went from having 40k people yelling striders name to crying about losing the NLCS. As a brave's fan, I don't care that the braves lost and would consider the postseason a success.
