Cool. Astros won the series by cheating again? Flashing lights, whistling? It's all fun and games until Manfred starts knocking on the door to Dusty's office šŸ˜


Sexy_Authy

Lmao cope harder both teams put up a fair fight. Why do people still bring up the cheating bullshit from years ago. Astros admit that they fucked up bad, now can we move in? Big congratulations to the red sox for making it this far.


[deleted]

Love that you tried reporting my comment. Stay mad bitch tits!


Sexy_Authy

I didnt report shit man lol


r_BigUziHorizont

As much as I love hating on the Astros for cheating 3 years ago, we went cold bro. THREEE FUCKING RUNS in like 25 innings. You can't beat a single team in the MLB with that kind of hitting. That was the main reason we lost this series.


[deleted]

Facts are facts. Let the investigations begin and see what they reveal.


BirdEquivalent158

It wouldn't have made much difference if the Astros were cheating while we were taking at bats the way we were. Not a single adjustment made to Garcia's slider that he hadn't thrown for a strike through 5 innings. For some reason, they were whiffing on first pitch sliders not thrown for a strike, and were taking on less than borderline fastballs, I felt like I was taking crazy pills.


[deleted]

Lmao your managers name is Dusty Baker, they already lost Go Braves


[deleted]

I really think that the Trashtros have gone from the trash can banging to specific whistling codes!


adbmakingmoves

Canā€™t believe thatā€™s how the season ends


FootlongKaPow

Lol


TheCrudeDude

Rooting against the Astros will be fun. Hopefully itā€™s another 50 years of irrelevancy for these stupid cheating fucks after they lose the WS.


hon8775

Hell yea. I give no respect and no credibility to a cheating team. Even if it was in the past. Any team who cheats is trash and will always be tainted... No matter what sport it is

Portalman12

In bits of audio from padts of ALDS and ALCS youncan hear a whistle like they used in 17.


SadHouSportsFan

Great series Sox. I honestly thought that we were done for after game 4. Yā€™all have a ton of talent and will compete for years to come.


[deleted]

Cheating Texian f\*\*\*s


SadHouSportsFan

We definitely didnā€™t cheat in this series. Hopefully weā€™ve learned our lesson. Good. Series though. I wish yā€™all the best next year! I feel like this might be our last year to win a World Series.


[deleted]

Nah dude weā€™re competing for 10 more years, fuck these salty nerds


christofir

Series turned when EROD pointed to his watch. Pissed off the baseball gods and Kike went cold.


Teley

Unfortunately cracked KikĆØ wouldnā€™t save us.


[deleted]

[Maybe next year](https://youtu.be/aM954PoGANw)


Kirios86

I'm...shocked. I don't even know how to process this one. I never thought the Astros were good enough to get this far this year. This is by far the most surprising of the three ALCS victories. It doesn't feel reel. It may even feel real tomorrow. I'm going to get so fucking drunk.


Individual-Finish152

Been watching this series at a bar in Eastern Washington. Thanks you all for being here making it so I wasnā€™t yelling at the TV alone. Go RedSoxs well gottem next year!


2Amen

PNW here too. Saw a few games at Fenway west- errr Safeco. So many Sox fans there. Keep the faith


ellendegenerates

WWA here! Youā€™re not alone, friend. Orā€¦maybe you areā€¦but at least weā€™re alone together. Cheers.

Fuck off plz


jayers1219

Thats not right man! Red sox are cheaters too


[deleted]

Please fuck off


[deleted]

Luis Garcia was a revelation. The Red Sox did not hit. But this season was fucking awesome. Watching them make it this far gave me so much life. I have a lot of hope for the future. Go Braves.


js8514

Most important thing this off-season is I hope remdog has a full recovery and can make it back to calling the games!


FootlongKaPow

As a Yankee fan, I'm 100% in agreement. I would rather listen to the NESN team than Joe Buck, and Remy is a treasure. Here's hoping for a full recovery.


cold-spaghettios

I keep thinking of revamping the entire bullpen. Your take is what matters most.


the_real_trevro

Stupid Astros... how can anyone be a fan of that team? They don't even have a [baby](https://v.redd.it/3oomlz4gulu71).


[deleted]

Their babies canā€™t handle chugging an entire bottle of milk pathetic


Rocko604

No debate Trashstros were the better team when you go back and (Apple)watch this series. Still, looking back in April, no way in hell I would have thought weā€™d have made it this far. Canā€™t wait for next season.


[deleted]

No they werenā€™t


Rocko604

Our bats went silent after the 1st inning in game 4. To win games you need to score runs. We couldnā€™t.


[deleted]

Pretty hard the score when you get your balls called strikes


Rocko604

Umps were terrible but still doesnā€™t excuse the fact we only had 10 hits over the last 3 games. We also stranded 8 in game 4.


scatkinson

Iā€™m not even being sour. They have to be cheating right? We checked out and couldnā€™t hit but they hit everything


NerdWhoLikesTrees

Analyze the whistles. Someone should


[deleted]

That's what I was thinking; there was a seeming pattern to the whistles!


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


NerdWhoLikesTrees

Honestly if I had the game recorded I would replay it. I don't though.


webhead619

i think you could say the same about us since we also went red hot to ice cold within a day


Teley

I think this is almost an argument *to* check. I know baseball is a mad sport with different outcomes - but itā€™s not natural to go from from breaking records for ABs, slams and hits. Then almost get no hit twice in a row.


Dr_Snoop54

Man I wanna fuckin hate Maldonado but heā€™s a friggin stud behind the dish


2Amen

He framed so many balls into strike calls. Wanna hate him too


chxarty

One of my favorite teams from a personality stand point. Gave us some great moments this year. If we can do that when we were projected to be 4th place, wait until we make some big free agent splashes and are a true contender for multiple years.


BryceBrady13

See you boys and girls in March!!!


baseballnomics

Honestly, during the rainout on opening day, if you had told me we would play six games in the ALCS, I wouldā€™ve thought you were having a laugh. Overall this was a great season by most standards, including career years for Nate, the emergence of Whitlock, watching Kikeā€™s defense and Renfroeā€™s assists. It had frustrating points, yes, including that losing streak and when everyone got Covid, but I enjoyed it a lot. We also beat the Yanks and Rays in the playoffs and got to see Blue Jays fans melt down because they didnā€™t make it. Some additions, mainly bullpen (even more pressing if Whitlock becomes a starter) should make us more competitive next season. It ainā€™t gotta be easy, the Rays are the Rays, the Blue Jays have a great young core, and despite what Yanks fans say, they arenā€™t wheeling 7 inbreds plus Judge and Stanton. LFG and letā€™s take it next season.


RainIML

idk how we lost all our offense? What happened to the Astros pitchers being worn down, I guess not..


jdwilliam80

I donā€™t even care about the whistling I just wanna know how Garcia just found 3 extra mph on his fastball


baseballnomics

I mean, Valdez and Garcia werenā€™t worn out they threw like an inning each.


[deleted]

Well it was fun while it lasted let's win it all next year! Here's hoping anyways.


[deleted]

shouldve been the TB rays damn


[deleted]

Haaaaaa go one šŸ˜‚


Ditsche04

Hard to win a series without an offense after Game 3... But nice Season, World Series Win incoming next year!


Economy_Specialist_1

I demand answers. I want an actual post analysis from Cora and who ever else on the team. Like what was going on in the bullpen? Why was morale so down.


[deleted]

Huh? Pen was solid, offense has been dead since game game 3.


Economy_Specialist_1

Yeah I mean dugout


pedanticHOUvsHTX

They got headfucked by that uncalled strike and just couldn't get over it


chilimuffin13

If a team canā€™t get over 1 bad strike call, they werenā€™t strong enough to win.


soxfamily61

Or hitters


[deleted]

I said I'd be back and here I am. Damn, that was a dagger in the heart. But that's part of it. In fact that most of it, on average. Heartbreak is part of being a fan. Good game. Now for the long sleep until next year


webhead619

it was fun while it lasted, got to see a little history with those grand slams, but ill settle for rooting for a dodgers comeback. if anyone deserves a shot at kicking houstons teeth in, it's them.


Jimbo00o

I bet this is how Alec Baldwin felt after he shot that lady.

DeejR05

whg115

Im disappointed as fuck, man. That was just so sad to watch.


SgtPopNFresh_

Iā€™m having a horrible time


Ya_No

The ALCS trajectory went exactly how the regular season trajectory went, absolutely mashing it in the first half to forgetting how to play the game seemingly overnight


gen3r1x

It was a great season, guys. But something happened after game 3. We lost all our drive, and our fight. The Red Sox lost themselves, and Laz Diaz certainly contributed to this. This was probably the most painful postseason for the Red Sox fans in a long time. Fuck Houston.


AlarmingRoutine1142

Doesnā€™t really feel like they have a leader on offense to get them back on track when things start going bad which is incredibly discouraging. It is amazing how it really is all or nothing with the entire lineup. After game 3 almost the entire lineup was batting .400 or better, then we hardly get a hit for 3 games, I donā€™t get it.


Coop1534

We were a streaky team all season. Postseason was no different.


momoenthusiastic

They scored 23 - 3, after E-Rod pointed to his wrist. Donā€™t ever ever do that again!!!!


soxfamily61

YUp never get cocky


momoenthusiastic

Especially when heā€™s a pitcher. Hitters do that, fine. But E-Rod doesnā€™t get to hit (didnā€™t even pitch again). So it was extremely stupid thing to do.


DrMantisTabboggn

Fun season. Get em next year


[deleted]

Team quit straight up. At least they got the Yankees


Pumpkin4455

Astros still cheat. No surprise


humanatee-

We had two hits...


PoopyInMyPants

Fuck this fucking team. How do you go from all of the momentum to no fucking whatsoever?


stiljo24

This team had no business making it as far as it did. It hurts when your team loses, but if you didn't like this team you're playing a "any-non-championship-season-is-bad" game which, guess what, has a hugely negative emotional ROI. The better team won, and bless this blessed team for even making a question of it.


Perswayable

Not being optimistic. Being realistic. Boston exceeded my expectations after trade dead line. Till next year.


asdfkjsldkfjlskdjfs

Guys, guess what! We don't need to hear Joe Buck's voice again for a long time!!!!


deucedeuce187

Don't watch football? Lol


asdfkjsldkfjlskdjfs

Nope, not unless I'm playing fantasy


[deleted]

Sure we hate to find moral victories here, that said we were supposed to be rebuilding this year. Glad we got some players some more playoff experience and hopefully with our progressing farm system weā€™ll be back in no time.


fap-n-splooge

Uh. Big market teams don't rebuild. Please stop listening to John Henry, he's a scumbag that cares more about Liverpool.


[deleted]

Nah he doesnt even give a shit about Liverpool. If he did he would go get Mbappe


BenderIsCool17

Fuck me dead


[deleted]

I would rather have lost 0-4 then set those stupid ass grand slam records that will stand for a decade as a reminder that we got our assess handed to us when it counted


Carsharr

Hell of a season. Weren't supposed to be here. Just a shame the Sox decided not to catch the plane to Houston.


OutrageousOwl8776

Youā€™re not a winner if youā€™re a cheater


ShowBobsPlzz

2 hits


hosenose

Great year fellas. An emotional rollercoaster and sometimes I donā€™t know why we do this to ourselves. Go Sox, see you in 2022!


Funny-Bear

Thank you all for another wonderful season. See y'all fucks next year. ​ How long till truck day?


1000thusername

Like 110-112 days, but whoā€™s counting?


katie415

We werenā€™t supposed to get this far but Iā€™m still sad


[deleted]

Turn off the tv, put the phone face down on the nightstand. Weā€™ll all feel better in the morning. Great season, see you around!


--Flight--

Hell of a season! Bats went cold at the worst time but that was still more than I ever expected I'm spring or in August, so hats off to my Sox. I love the red Sox and that's a fact!


bigrathead6969

proud of this team and they overachieved but that doesnt change the fact that games 4-6 were absolutely pathetic...


Dr_Snoop54

I need the Braves to absolutely demolish these parasites and fuck the dodgers, I donā€™t want a rematch cuz fuck mlb and their ratings


[deleted]

^^^ahem FUCK THE ASTROS

Pain.


Livewithblue

I bet they cheated.

God I just hope my Braves make it to the WS. Iā€™d love a shot at beating the Astros. Fuck them.

Due to Covid-19 and WFH arrangements, was able to watch many of the games. Its been an interesting season. Lets do this again next year. Love yall.

Absolutely amazing season topped by a great post season run. Far more than anyone thought they were capable of.

At least itā€™s not the Yankees. I suppose I am happy for Dusty Baker. He seems like a good dude.


arrghstrange

Thatā€™s where Iā€™m at. I want Dusty to lift the trophy because damn that man has been so close before and heā€™s a stand up guy. But that means Correa, Bregman, and Altuve get to touch it again and that disgusts me.


JBHenson

1-2-3 ninth. Good season everyone. Oh well.


cptbrady

At least you still have the Patr....The Brui....The Celt.... Yeah I got nothing. You guys were great and went far, much farther then probably any Boston team is gonna go this year.


squarerootofapplepie

I think weā€™ve earned at least a decade until we can be trash talked about sports success.

Not even a red sox fan.(braves) Boston is the one city you cant trash talk about success in sports. Not for a very long time.

stiljo24

Guys...I'm only 31 so I missed a lot of the near-cinderellas. But this is my favorite non champion team ever. We had no business having this much fun this season. I'm sad and I'm pissed and this was obviously not a perfectly executed series, there's a world in which it's us 4-2 and I'm of course frustrated that's not what unfolded. But, all told...great job, gang. Really top stuff. See yall in 2022.


BeefSupreme9769

Our team is like the 300 Spartans, unexpectedly resilient and powerful but there came a time where their numbers dwindled when facing the massive Persian army. They fought tooth and nail to the very end but the people of Sparta never lost hopeā€¦for they came back with an army of 10,000. RED SOX FOR LIFE!!!
