Really Really Really Really Really Really Really Really Must Win Game Thread

Naylor not in Detroit (not that he was in Seattle mentally either lol) hope the baby comes and all is well.

Should be a straight 3-2 series as in 1st 3 in home park then last 2 in Detroit.

so the home team can sweep before away fans get to see a game, uh huh

[Donn Beach]

Don't mock the superstition gods.............I don't think you want to face a pissed off Skubal in Game 5.

Why do they get their dominant pitcher and we don't get ours? Rhetorical question.

It's absolute garbage having off days every time they switch venues.

you're saying play a game on a travel day? what, on the plane?

what's the problem with off days? I like having an off day

[Sibelius Hindemith]

Huh, they do it all the time during the regular season. Play a day game and get your asses on an evening flight.
I just would prefer that that the 4th and 5th starting pitchers come into play more.

yeah, the playoff schedule is a function of broadcasting not travel. The question being could you work the schedule for that as well as keep the broadcasting schedule intact. And what's the point anyway? What's wrong with off days?

I just don't get why all 3 possible remaining Mariners games vs Detroit are noon or 1 pm Pacific, but Yankees Bluejays are 4 and 5.

For the sake of the west coast Seattle fans we can't get one fucking evening game? All 3 games are on weekdays. It's so aggravating. I'm fucking employed, you dickheads...

[Donn Beach]

this is unusual isn't it, daytime playoff games? I don't keep track if such things but I thought they had been strictly evening for years. Is this a function of the larger playoffs?

[Millikin]

Clearly they're spacing the games to get more people watching. Fine and I get it that Yankees need to be in a prime spot because it's by far the most popular team.

But people would watch the Yankees at 4 or 5 eastern. And you could have Mariners/Detroit at 7 or 8 eastern and it's still win/win.

I'm going to be a shitty employee this week. I work for the state, so sorry taxpayers. I've got a job where I can hop in my work vehicle to do work, but this time I'll be hopping in the work vehicle to duck work.

I'd hate that. Why wouldn't you want the deciding game five at home. The likely hood at sweeping the first three seems pretty unlikely. We blew game one, or we'd be in a perfect position right now.
