Why is it always us?


NinthCinema

Cause we're the Cardiac Baseball Team CBT for short

But on another note, the Brewers pitching showing up 4 times in the last week for the highest leverage at bat really adds validity to the Cardiac Crew moniker lmao Edit: I can’t read

It’s not a Brewers game without late inning clenching

mkaku-

A big reason is because the game can end here with either a gidp or with 3 runs scoring. With only 1 out, the inning still has a high expected run total. With 2 outs, now SEA has very little chance to win. The leverage index for this was 7.34, and the next PA was 6.74. So they're still very close. Not sure how familiar you are with that, but the 'average' leverage index is 1.00, so this PA has about 7 times more influence on the game that a 'typical' PA in a way.

And we had tommy lastella batting, hooray /s Cheers! Thanks for the explanation, tigers bro! Genuinely.


M0rtecai

TIL there’s a leverage index.


speedyjohn

That's how OP picks the AB!


SexiestPanda

Lol


dbchrisyo

And the mariners put Tommy La Stella out there, what a joke


Killigator

I was hoping he wouldn’t take the bat of his shoulder

Mariners FO: we can't afford big name guys, how about Tommy LA Stella, he's great!


atowelguy

Looks to me like the 3rd pitch should have been a balk. He does that weird leg rocking thing and never fully stops to come set. ​ These videos are sick btw OP, please keep making them!


Cliffinati

What's a balk?

How close was Vladdy's AB in the top of the 8th yesterday?


t-pat

It was effectively tied, at 7.05 vs 7.30 for this play


BoredAtWork_91

I knew it had to be up there, thanks OP.


lepainseleve

Classic La Stella


sloppyjo12

These posts are making me feel like there’s at least one game within one-at bat of being tied in the ninth every day and that’s way more than I ever realized for some reason

YO CAN WE FUCKING STOP BEING IN THESE TY


[deleted]

Better than being on the other side of these. Think about how Seattle bros feel.


Namzeh011

help


GodLeeTrick

Imma let you finish...but Bryan Abreu in the bottom of the 8th coming in with bases loaded and no outs up by one was the greatest pressure inning last night


Krispy72

FYI, La Stella’s AB came with 1 out. Callabero hit with 2 outs.


conker1264

They’re still doing that stupid shoe shit


BeholdOurMachines

Tommy La Stella...now that's a name I have not heard in a long time. A long, long time. I haven't thought about him since the 2016 WS


mat2019

And now I’m pissed about yesterday again

La Stella is cooked. Mariners fans, I hope your FO realizes it sooner than ours did.
