JS022681 Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 Considering I have tickets to the 7th game of the World Series in Boston, I would have to go with Boston Red Sox vs. Chicago Cubs in 7!

JS022681 Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 Then how come he isn't even going to start game 2 for the sox.And his era and whip is higher than 4 yankee starters. He won 17 games because of run support. There are a couple reasons for this: 1) Derek Lowe does much better at home (you would know this if you were in Boston) which is a severe disadvantage for Boston in which the pitching matchups could be a bit screwy 2) Tim Wakefield is going in Game 2, and he has done quite good this year, to put him as the #2 starter would not be a mistake Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/103883-the-2003-neowin-mlb-playoff-thread/page/3/#findComment-1209866 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 (edited) Rats...Cubs lose game 2. Ah well, it was a good one. I've been a huge Cubs fan for 20 years. I think I deserve something big this year! If Prior does what he does best, Cubs should be up 2-1. I wouldn't be suprised to see Wood pitch in game 4 either. Clement has been pretty up and down all year. One game he'll strike out 9 and allow a couple hits. Next game he'll get rocked. The bottom of the Cubs batting order killed them last night....aside from Wood. I think they can take the Braves in 4. It's San Fran's pitching that worries me. Course one can dream that Florida will beat them For the AL....I would like to see Oakland in the series. I can't stand the Twins or Yankees, but have to cheer for the Yanks in this series. Down with the Twins!!!

Pinebender Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 Why would you not like the Twins?? They win by old fashioned hard work and dedication. We dont have to go buy a winning team like the Yankees. You have seen what they can do under pressure last year and hopefully what they will do this year. Go Twins!

brianicoleman Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 friday night should bring a good game.. maddox vs. prior, and i agree with you illinipi, its going to 1-0 one way or the other.. both pitchers are having great years, but it seems as if maddox is declining.... hopefully the braves hitting will pull through :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/103883-the-2003-neowin-mlb-playoff-thread/page/3/#findComment-1214505 Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianicoleman Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 well with the marlins killing the giants 9-5, braves edging by the cubs late 5-3 with mike derosa's game winning double, and the athletics rallying in the bottom of the 12th with a bases loaded squeeze bunt to top the red sox 5-4, the standings are looking like this: giants knotted up with the marlins: 1 game to 1 cubs knotted up with the braves: 1 game to 1 twins lead over the yankees: 1 game to 0 athletics lead the red sox: 1 game to 0 here are today games: thursday october 2, 2003 *all times eastern* 3:06 pm boston vs. oakland (wakefield vs. zito) 7:18 pm minnesota vs. n.y. yankees (radke vs. pettitte) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/103883-the-2003-neowin-mlb-playoff-thread/page/3/#findComment-1214631 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have seen what they can do under pressure last year and hopefully what they will do this year. Go Twins! It's a long standed hatred of them, going back to my early years. If you liked the Cubs, you couldn't like the Twins, and vice versa.

Derek Lowe walked a couple of people and got the L in game 1. Oaktown baby. All you've proven is that you know very little about baseball. You've done that quite well. So Lowe got a loss. Who cares! Now show me a pitcher who has NEVER lost a game in his life. By your own standards, you can't be a good pitcher if you lose a game. I guess every pitcher in MLB history sucks then, huh.

BroChaos Veteran Posted October 2, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 2, 2003 damn braves. i've been a cubs fan for about 15 years, so yeah, we do deserve something! i was so ****ed, cuz i was watching the game at a bar in los angeles, and there were some people cheering for the cubs, but then some dude started cheering "bandwagon!" when the cub fans cheered. ****ed the **** outta me, just cuz those spoiled braves fans (no offense Capt. ;)) get the playofffs for 11 years in a row or whatever...they don't understand what it is to be a fan. it takes dedication being a cubs fan, and it is really hard at times, but we stick through it.
