All Things 2025 Playoff Thread





Visiting teams about to be 5-0 so far in the ALCS and NLCS.
 














AI is equally stupid in trying to answer that question as well.

What I was able to find was the Dodgers 1966 WS is the lowest run total of any 7 game series. They scored 2 runs in Game 1, then were shut out the last 3 games.

As for the AL/NLCS, the 1970 Pirates scored 3 runs but that was in just 3 games (best of 5). In 7 games, 3 times has it occurred where a team only scored 5 runs.
 


Greatest playoff performance ever?


Not even close 🤷‍♂️

ReggieVision💪 for the Win - there’s only Mr. October

Three different pitchers, 3 consecutive swings of the stick in a deciding game in the WS. His last one went 475 🦶.

Bask in his greatness😎, you fiend🥸 -

Sorry, no. I heard Ohtani sold the most beer in-between innings as well.

Oh, I forgot the best part😉

The other team they played was wearing Blue😎

My ten year old ❤️ soared with each swat. Was yours, perchance crushed, like when Michelle Karn, my 5th grade crush, checked the No Box on whether she liked me or not?
 

I was pulling for the Mariners to win their first ever American League Pennant. Bummer.

On the plus side, we get a Game 7.
 

Mad Vlad is in baseball lore zip code with his postseason heroics, including his ridunkulous 1.532 OPS vs. the Pilots. I wouldn’t bet against him in game 7😎.

Here’s a link which highlights other out of this world performances -

Have to say, I really miss some of the small ball era. Just seems like so many guys have entirely had that coached out of the game, which makes me sad as a small guy that that’s what I loved about baseball. Both teams left 7 on base, hit into multiple double plays, blew executing runners on third with either 1 or no outs, and stole no bases. And this is on a night the pitchers were mediocre hitting the strike zone and walked 7 batters.

Well stated.

I think the pendulum will swing back eventually.
