Fuck It! Win or Crap Yer Pants & Go Home G.T. 9/28/23

More unprecedented than 1995's 163 game?

I was there. I was working at the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle on the 11th floor of the Century Square Building on 4th and Pine at the time. It was an afternoon game. I told my boss either you give me the afternoon off or I quit. We had support strict hours because I had to field calls from banks wanting to borrow millions of dollars up until 1pm PDT deadline and the game started at 1:35pm PDT. So at 1pm I left my desk and started running towards the Kingdome in my Suit and tie. As I was running I noticed there were also hundreds of other people running to the game as well. It was absolutely bizarre and surreal.

Never have been so nervous at a Sporting event in my entire life. When Sojo hit the Little league Grand Slam it was the biggest release and sigh of relief imaginable. I can still feel it to this day 28 years later......We Finally had made the playoffs!. btw that was "only" an 18 year drought. lol

I was there. Went with a friend, the two of us, he was my boss actually. So I went and stood in line and the two of us went to the game. Deal was, when I finally got to the window I just bought the two tickets. They looked kinda shocked at me, you could probably buy a dozen tickets? So she looks and says how about these two. It was a pair of box seats like I think it was 15 rows behind 3rd base. Unbelievable seats, never have had such good seats at any game. And it was because I only wanted a pair of them I guess

I went to every home playoff game that year and of course game 4 and 5 of the Yankees series were amazing but just the relief of finally making the playoffs in that game was just different in an amazingly intense way.

Why. It was a double. Had to be to score both runs.

I’d just never seen that scenario or paid attention. I wonder if he even ran to 2B, he certainly wasn’t there before the run scored.

If it wasn't over the OFers head and was a routine ground ball base hit then they would have scored it a single but scoring that a single would have been odd.

If they only need 1 run, they usually rule it a single.

Interesting that they gave JP a double for that last AB in the bed score.

Just watching rerun and he touched 2nd

Yeah, the bases were loaded right? So a single could have scored two. I guess it must be up to interpretation? I imagine a lot of guys are celebrating the walk off and don’t make it all the way to two!

Maybe it was simply that he ran hard and touched 2B before Dylan Moore strolled into home.

He didn’t need a double though.

He hit a ball that is a double 1000% of the time in a non game ending situation, he touched and rounded 2B and he scored a guy from second. I think I am cool with them calling it a double. I am ready to move on. lol

Probably a sinister plan to raise his OPS so the people in forum will quit dumping on him LOL
