Brantley isn't one of the dirty dozen and that was clearly Fried's fault, he missed the bag with his foot. Interestingly, had Atlanta reviewed that, Brantley would have been out because he didn't touch first before Fried was standing on it. If they had I think he would have been ruled safe. Fried was clearly on the baseline/basepath obstructing the runner. Fried was lucky he wasn't badly spiked or didn't get his ankle broken. I may be wrong but I don't think a replay can rule obstruction.

I might be wrong, but I think the last time a home crowd got to cheer on its team winning the clinching game of the World Series occurred in 2013 when the Red Sox won at Fenway Park (Koji strike out of Matt Carpenter, caught by David Ross).
I think that in 2014 the Giants won in KC, in 2015 the Royals won in NY, in 2016 the Cubs won in Cleveland, in 2017 the Astros won in LA, in 2018 the Red Sox won in LA, in 2019 the Nationals won in Houston, in 2020 the Dodgers won in TB, and in 2021 the Braves won in Houston.
Kind of crazy it's been that long since it's happened.

While I didn't exactly root for the Braves I'm delighted the other club lost in no uncertain terms. They are good but there's something off about them.
If the right moves are made this winter RS should be at or near the top of AL East. They had a good year but could have been much better but for problems I don't think will occur next season.

Hmm ..... same thing basically happened to the Astros offense as happened to the Sox's offense. That's the way it is with offense. It comes and goes, and if it goes at the wrong time in the playoffs, your goose is cooked. You run out of tomorrows very quickly.

If they had I think he would have been ruled safe. Fried was clearly on the baseline/basepath obstructing the runner. Fried was lucky he wasn't badly spiked or didn't get his ankle broken. I may be wrong but I don't think a replay can rule obstruction. You're correct on that but I don't think either of you have it right. If the runner misses first base running through it technically the defense needs to appeal it like it's a missed base. Really weird rule but that's how it's called. And before the likely response of "but the runner would be back on the bag by then," it's a myth from little league that you need to wait, pitcher takes the rubber, steps off, then appeal. They'd need to appeal it in real time, I believe.

That was a good World Series glad the Braves won. I still think the Braves would have beaten us but still would have been fun to watch.
