Fun with AI

I can't let David have all the fun with AI!

I went back in time and used what is in my opinion the craziest box score in the history of Mutiny - G2 of the 2021 World Series. Coming off a tense 12 inning game in G1 the unbelievable happened. G2 went 28 innings! To find my recap of the event please click here:

Recap written by a pirate:

Arrr matey, gather 'round and I'll tell ye the tale of a wild night at the ol' ballpark—where the Landlubbers faced off against the Bums in a sea battle o' titanic proportions. It was a game fit fer the fiercest of pirates, full o' swashbucklin', long innings, and a chase that stretched all the way into the moonlight.

The Bums came outta the gates quick, claimin’ the lead in the first with a mighty home run by Posey, sendin’ the Bums ahead 3-0. But the Landlubbers—led by their fearless captain, Crawford—weren't about to go down easy. The Landlubbers chipped away at the score over the next few innings, with Jansen smashin' a dinger in the seventh to pull ‘em within one.

By the eighth, the game was as tight as a pirate's belt after a long night of grog! The Landlubbers tied it up with a pair of wild pitches and a big ol' double from Olson, sendin' the score to 4-4. Neither side could muster much of a rally, though—each time it looked like one team might take the win, the other’s defense would thwart ‘em. Ye could hear the groans from the stands and the clank of the cannons as the game stretched into extra innings.

Both teams traded punches, swingin’ and missin’, till at last, in the 22nd inning, it was Arenado’s bat that struck the final blow. A mighty 2-run homer to left, and just like that, the Bums snatched victory from the jaws o' defeat, leavin’ the Landlubbers stranded in the deep waters. The Bums won, 5-4, in a game that’ll be talked about in pirate taverns fer ages.

But don’t ye worry—though the Landlubbers didn’t win this time, they fought like true sea dogs, and there’s always another day fer a rematch. Until then, arrrr, ye best remember the name of the Bums—victorious, but a worthy opponent was the Landlubbers!

John Madden: "Well, Pat, here we are at the ballpark, and let me tell ya, it’s a game that’s got everything. You got the pitching, you got the hitting, you got the drama! This game’s got more twists and turns than a playbook on a windy day!"

Pat Summerall: "That's right, John. It's been an exciting matchup so far, with both teams giving it their all. We're in the middle of a long one, and it's been back and forth, but there's no telling who’s gonna come out on top at this point."

John Madden: "I love when teams start swinging the bat like this! You get guys like Posey, who just smashes that ball. That’s what you need—someone to step up and hit those big shots. And, let me tell ya, that’s exactly what we’re seeing today! Every time you think someone’s outta it, they come roaring back."

Pat Summerall: "Absolutely, John. You mentioned Posey, and let’s not forget about that home run. That was a huge moment early in the game, really set the tone. But then Crawford, he answers right back for the Landlubbers. This game is like a heavyweight fight—no one's giving an inch."

John Madden: "And that’s the thing, Pat. It’s all about who can keep their head in the game. You get to that seventh inning stretch, and that’s where the real pressure starts. The crowd’s on their feet, the tension’s building, and that’s when you gotta focus. That’s what Crawford did when he hit that single to tie it up. They’re not quitting, and they’re not backing down!"

Pat Summerall: "It’s all coming down to the wire now. We've seen some big plays and some mistakes—wild pitches, close calls—but this thing is still tied up. You’ve got to wonder, John, who’s going to break through first?"

John Madden: "You know, Pat, this is where it gets fun! This is where you earn your paycheck! It’s the 22nd inning, folks—how many times do you see a game go this long? But these teams, they’re out here like a bunch of warriors, just battling. Nobody's giving up, not even when they’ve been out there for hours!"

Pat Summerall: "And just when you think it’s over, Arenado steps up in the 22nd, and BAM! He launches one deep to left field—way out of here! That’s the game! A 2-run homer! That’s the kind of play that can win it all."

John Madden: "I mean, look, Pat, when Arenado gets a hold of one, it’s like he’s got a cannon on his shoulder. You can just tell when he connects, the ball’s gone. And that’s what it takes. A big-time play from a big-time player, and now the Bums are walking away with this one."

Pat Summerall: "Well, it’s a tough loss for the Landlubbers, John. They fought hard, but in the end, the Bums come out on top, 5-4. This one’s gonna sting for the Landlubbers, but they’ll be back, I’m sure of it."

John Madden: "That’s right, Pat. But for now, the Bums take the win. This game had it all—big hits, clutch pitching, and one wild finish. That’s what baseball’s all about!"

Harry Carey (slurring): "WELL, folks, lemme tell ya somethin'… THIS game… what a game, huh?! I tell ya, I’ve been watchin’ baseball for a long time, but this... THIS, ladies and gentlemen, is somethin’ special! Hoo boy! I’m tellin' ya, the Bums and the Landlubbers—they sure know how to put on a show. You get one team hittin’, the other team pitchin’, it’s like a big ol' dance on the diamond! A dance of sweat and beer... mostly beer, though. Ha! Anyway, where was I? Oh yeah, the game!

Now, I remember that big hit from Posey, that was somethin’! WHOOSH! That ball flew like a rocket—I'm tellin' ya, right outta here! You could hear the crack of the bat, like a thunderclap! Everyone in the stands went NUTS, I went nuts, even my dog went nuts, which is impressive ‘cause he’s been asleep all day! Ha!

But hold on, don't get ahead of me, folks! The Landlubbers—THEY came right back at ‘em, like a team that had just been woken up from a nap! I think they were tired of getting beat, and they said ‘Hey, we’re NOT going down easy!’ Crawford, oh yeah, Crawford—he’s the one, the man, he ties it all up! What a hit! He musta had a pint of the good stuff before stepping up to the plate, I tell ya that! The whole game was a rollercoaster, I’m still dizzy from it!

But here’s the thing, folks, the REAL excitement came in the 22nd inning. That’s right, folks, 22 innings! That's two... two dozen! I've seen short relationships last longer than that! And there we are, it's late, I’m thinkin’ about pizza... then BOOM—Arenado comes up and knocks it outta the park! WHAT A SHOT! I mean, it went farther than my uncle’s stories at Thanksgiving, and those go on for hours! BAM, right to left field—good night, folks, pack it up, go home, it’s OVER!

The Bums win, they take it home, they’ve got their victory, and the Landlubbers—well, they got no more wind in their sails, that’s for sure. But hey, don’t count ‘em out! They’ll be back next time. And me? I’m just gonna take a nap... in the fifth inning. Heh. I’ll see you folks at the next game... when I remember where I put my pants!"

Although I have no idea why ChatGPT keeps thinking the game ended in the 22nd inning???
I guess even AI can't believe the game went 28 innings...

Vin Scully Play-by-Play:

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to this beautiful night of baseball here at the ballpark. We’ve got ourselves a real treat tonight, as two teams that have been through the grind of a long season square off for what’s shaping up to be an unforgettable contest. I’m Vin Scully, and it’s my pleasure to guide you through this one as the action unfolds.

The lights are shining brightly, and the crowd is buzzing with excitement. You can feel the energy in the air as the players take their positions, ready to give their all. A game like this, well, it’s more than just a game—it’s a testament to the sport itself. Every pitch, every swing, every catch carries a story, and we’re here to witness it.

We start with the visiting team at the plate. The pitcher winds up—there’s the delivery—and it’s a fastball down the middle. A strike... and just like that, we’re off and running. The batter steps out of the box, readjusts his gloves, and here comes another pitch. This time, it’s a curve, and it’s beautiful, breaking right over the plate. Two strikes now, and the batter is in a hole.

The count goes full, 3-2. The pitcher shakes off a sign—no, he nods, and here it comes. A fastball, high, and the batter swings through it! Strike three, and he’s down on strikes. Well, that’s a nice start for the pitcher, getting an early K to set the tone. But as we know in baseball, there’s always a second act, and this one’s just getting started.

Now here comes the cleanup hitter, and he’s been swinging a hot bat lately. The crowd rises to their feet, a little anticipation in the air. The first pitch is a slider, and he takes a healthy cut—but he misses! Oh, what a pitch that was, just dancing out of the strike zone, making the batter look foolish.

One ball, one strike. The pitcher’s in control, and he throws another slider—this time, it’s a little lower in the zone, but the batter connects, and it’s a line drive to center field! That’s going to drop in for a base hit. The batter rounds first, no hesitation, and he’s off to second base. A stand-up double, and just like that, the tying run is in scoring position.

Now, let’s pause for a moment to appreciate the defense. The center fielder had a perfect read on that ball. He got a good jump, but it was just out of his reach. That’s what makes baseball so special—the little things, the subtle nuances that make all the difference.

With the runner in scoring position, the next batter steps in. The pitcher delivers. It’s a breaking ball, but he didn’t get it quite where he wanted—low, and the batter checks his swing. It’s ball one. But here’s the thing, folks: we’re in the later innings now, and this game has that playoff feel to it. Every pitch feels like it could be the one that decides it all.

And now, the 2-1 pitch… it’s a fastball, and BOOM! The batter sends it deep into left-center field—this one’s got a chance! The outfielder’s racing back, but it’s over his head! That ball’s going to hit the wall, and it’s off the fence! The runner on second is coming around third... he’s heading for home—and he’s safe! The tying run crosses the plate. What a hit! What a moment! You can’t help but feel the excitement in the air as the crowd roars to life. Baseball at its finest.

Now, with the score tied and the stage set for a dramatic finish, the teams exchange glances. You know, in moments like this, it’s not just about the players on the field. It’s about the fans, too—their hopes, their dreams, their love for this beautiful game. It’s a connection, a bond that’s passed down through generations.

And as the game continues, the tension builds with each pitch, each at-bat, and you just know that this is going to be one of those games you’ll remember for a long time. The drama of the game, the ebb and flow, the high moments and the lows. And in the end, it’s baseball that brings us all together.

As we enter the final frames of this marathon, you can’t help but appreciate the effort, the heart, and the passion from both teams. The scoreboard may tell you the score, but it’s the game itself that tells the real story.

Well folks, the game’s not over yet, but I think it’s safe to say this one’s been one for the ages. We’ll be right here to take you through the final moments, as baseball, once again, reminds us all why we love this game."

(Scully's voice fades out as the game continues).

Recap of Earth's "Baseball Game" by an Alien Observer:

Greetings, Earthlings! I, Zorplon of the Epsilon-9 star system, have just witnessed an unusual gathering of your species. I am here to relay what I observed during your event called "baseball."

At the beginning of this peculiar Earth ritual, I was presented with a large, flat surface surrounded by humanoids who seemed to be experiencing extreme emotional states—cheering, gasping, and yelling. There were two groups of these creatures, each wearing distinct colored garments. These two factions took turns interacting with what appeared to be a small, round object, which they called a "ball."

One of the humanoids threw the ball towards another, who attempted to strike it using an elongated stick. The stick, I later learned, is called a "bat." Upon contact, the ball was sent hurtling through the air, and the humanoids in the vicinity reacted with intense physical movement—some attempting to catch the ball, others chasing it across the flat surface. This seemed to be the primary goal: to hit the ball and run toward various markers placed on the ground.

The game seemed to consist of alternating periods of activity, where one group threw the ball and the other attempted to strike it and run. I observed that the object of this ritual was for one group to "score points" by reaching markers without being caught by the other. Every time a participant successfully ran to one of these markers, the group made loud noises and seemed pleased. When they failed, the crowd would exhale in what I deduced was disappointment.

At one point, I witnessed something very curious—an object resembling a small, flat rectangle, known as a "bat," was swung violently at the air, and the ball was sent soaring through the atmosphere. This action caused much excitement among the crowd. Some of the humanoids leaped and collided in an attempt to capture the ball. I was unclear whether this was a display of physical coordination or a form of territorial dominance.

Additionally, there was an interesting moment when one humanoid wearing a helmet—clearly to protect itself from the rapidly traveling sphere—was declared "out" when they failed to make contact with the ball, and their attempt to run to a marker was thwarted. This seemed to be a moment of personal failure, met with the collective dissatisfaction of the crowd. They seemed to value success in this ritual above all else.

As the game continued, I began to understand that there was a strange rhythm to the proceedings—one group would take its turn to throw the ball, while the other would try to score points. The game appeared to be segmented into “innings,” though I never fully grasped the significance of the word. The humanoids would loudly announce each phase with excitement and grow increasingly tense as the event progressed.

The game reached what appeared to be a conclusion when one group successfully "scored" more points than the other, though the precise mechanism for this was still somewhat elusive to me. However, I could sense the emotional shift in the crowd—the victorious group erupted in loud, jubilant noises, while the defeated group stood with what I interpreted as a mix of exhaustion and frustration.

In summary, I have learned that this Earth custom involves hitting a small object, running toward markers, and trying to "outperform" the other group through various skillful feats. There is a clear competitive drive, and it appears that humans derive great emotional energy from the outcome of these rituals. The game was, in conclusion, a spectacle of coordination, speed, and timing—much like the rituals of other species, but with more complex emotional overtones.

I will need further data to completely understand the depth of this activity, but I believe I now have a fundamental understanding of what your species calls "baseball." Fascinating. Simply fascinating.

End transmission.

Beagle's Recap of the "Baseball Game":

Sniff sniff sniff! Ooooh, I smell something! Oh, wait, is that... food? No, no, it's just the humans yelling and jumping around again. Hmmm, what was I doing? Oh, right, I was watching the game they were all barking about. So, here's what happened. I was lying under the bench, minding my own business, you know—getting my belly rubbed—when all of a sudden, they started doing stuff.

There were these two big groups of them. One group had red shirts, and the other had... uh, no shirts, but, like, different pants. Very confusing. But anyway! The one with the red shirts, they had this thing... uh, it was round and white. Oooooh, I wanna sniff that thing so bad! But nope! One of the humans—he threw it! With a big arm! And it went so far. I almost ran after it, but no one looked like they were playing fetch, so I just stayed put.

Then this other human grabbed a big stick—like, a huge stick! And... what did he do with it? He swung it! Ohhhh, I love swinging things! I run after sticks all the time. But this guy, he missed! And the humans around him made this weird noise—like when they don’t give me treats after I roll over. So, that wasn’t very fun. Not gonna lie, I was disappointed.

Then, oh, the ball went flying through the air, and there was a big noise, and all the humans started running in all directions. I thought maybe they were playing tag or hide-and-seek, but nope! They were just... running and running. To these big white things on the ground. They were like... circles. Or something. I wanted to chase them too, but I had to stay focused.

One of the red-shirt guys ran, and ran... and ran. He made it to one of those circles without being caught by the other humans. Everyone went crazy! I didn’t get it. I mean, I run around the yard all day for nothing, and they’re getting all this excitement for running in circles? Weird.

Oh, and I think there was a thing where someone threw the ball to another human, and if they caught it, the other human had to stop running. It looked like they were playing some weird, fancy game of fetch—except instead of bringing it back, they just stood there. Bizarre.

Anyway, at the end, I saw them all leaving, and the humans in the red shirts were jumping around and wagging their hands, I think. I heard them say something about "winning" and "scoring" and "outs." I didn’t get any of it. But what I did get was the smell of hot dogs and popcorn! Now THAT’S what I call a victory.

So yeah. Weird game, but I would have liked to run after that ball, chase a few humans, and maybe get a treat. Would’ve made the whole thing way more fun.

Sniff sniff sniff... Is there more food?

recap by Nolan Arenado’s Mother:

Oh, my sweet Nolan! My boy, he was just amazing out there today. Honestly, I don’t know how he does it. All those people, all those bright lights, and there he is—always calm, always focused. He’s so humble, too. He doesn’t brag about his talent, but I can tell when he's out there, he’s the one everyone’s watching. And who wouldn’t? Look at that swing of his! That sweet, perfect swing. That’s my boy!

Now, I know he was up to bat a few times today, but what really impressed me? Oh, my stars, it was that fielding! Have you ever seen anyone handle a baseball glove like Nolan? The way he just glides to the ball, like he's floating—every play looks effortless. But believe me, it’s not. I’ve seen him practicing in the backyard, day after day. And let me tell you, no one works harder than Nolan. Even as a little boy, he was always out there, throwing that ball against the wall until his arm was sore. But I never complained. You could always tell how much he loved it. And it paid off today!

There was that one beautiful play, I swear, it was poetry in motion. He reached out like he had eight arms, caught that ball, and made a perfect throw to first. I almost cried! I know, I’m a softie, but you should’ve seen it! That was just… breathtaking. Honestly, I was just waiting for them to announce, “That’s the play of the game,” but of course, no one knows what I see from the stands. But I know it in my heart—he’s the best.

And don’t even get me started on his at-bats. He made contact with that ball! Just like I always knew he would. Sure, some of those pitchers were throwing pretty fast, but Nolan? He was focused—so calm, so sure of himself. I swear, he could probably hit a ball in his sleep if he wanted to. When he gets on base, I can just feel the energy in the air. The whole crowd’s excited, and I think, “That’s MY boy out there!”

Even when they didn’t win today (Oh, honey, I’ll never stop worrying about that), I just want everyone to know how proud I am of him. They can say whatever they want about stats and wins, but in my eyes, Nolan is already a champion. No one works harder than my boy, and I’ll always be his number one fan. Go, Nolan!

Is that the game ending already? Oh, I guess I’ll call him later. But first, I’ll make sure I save him some of his favorite cookies for when he gets home. After all, every good game deserves a good snack. My sweet, talented boy! I’m so proud of him. Always. Always.

Play-by-Play by George Steinbrenner and Steve Cohen:

George Steinbrenner (GS):
Alright, Steve, here we are, another game, another chance for greatness. You know, when you own a team like the Yankees, you expect nothing less than perfection. Nothing less. We need every player to understand the value of the game. The importance. This is about legacy—it's not about just winning, it's about dominating. I’m watching every move, every swing, every pitch. No one’s getting away with mediocrity. No one.

Steve Cohen (SC):
Absolutely, George. You know, when you’re running a team like this, it’s not just about results—it’s about putting together something special. I’ve invested in the right talent, the right environment. You see the players, they’ve got the right attitude, the right approach. They’re focused, and that’s key. We’re building something sustainable here. But hey, I’ve got to say—the passion you bring? It’s something else.

GS:
Passion? What are you talking about, Steve? I’m talking about results! No team should ever be content with mediocrity. Look at the Yankees' history, for heaven’s sake. We’re talking about champions, not just guys who show up. I want winners. People talk about how great the Mets are under your ownership, but let’s be real, Steve—if you want to win big, you have to demand the best every single day. You have to make tough decisions.

SC:
Oh, I agree, George. That’s exactly what I’m doing. You know, it’s about creating a winning culture, making sure the right players are in the right positions. You can’t just buy a championship—well, you can, but you’ve got to nurture the right talent, and that’s exactly what we’re doing here. And yes, while history matters, we’re in a new era. We’re creating something fresh, something exciting. And hey, have you seen the moves we’ve made this offseason? You could learn a thing or two from how I’ve structured things. We’re all about long-term success.

GS:
(snorts) Long-term success? Let me tell you something, Steve—you know nothing about winning like I do. You’ve got money, sure, but that doesn’t mean you can buy heart. That’s the difference between a real winner and someone who’s just happy to be here. I built this franchise! I took the Yankees from mediocrity to greatness, and I’ll do it again, if I have to! You can’t just throw money around and expect results! It’s about accountability—everyone is held to a standard. My players? They knew they were playing for the greatest franchise in baseball.

SC:
You’re right, George. I mean, we have different styles, sure, but the end goal is the same. I’ve got my vision, I’m investing heavily, and we’re not just making moves to make moves—we’re building. It’s not just about filling seats or making headlines. It’s about sustainability. That’s how we’re going to build a dynasty. And hey, when you’ve got the best talent on the field—you can’t stop them.

GS:
Oh, stop with the “sustainability” nonsense! You need to win now, Steve. Now. No one remembers the teams that were "built for the future"—they remember the teams that dominated today. You think the Yankees went through all that blood, sweat, and tears just to wait for success? You need players that hit when it matters. You need to take charge when it counts. No one remembers the average players. You need superstars. Big names. Big moves. That’s the Steinbrenner way!

SC:
(chuckling) I’ll tell you this, George: while you’re busy yelling about now, I’m building for a future where the Mets don’t just compete—they dominate. And you’ll see. When we’re on top, you’ll understand the difference. It’s not just about spending money; it’s about spending money the right way. Creating value. It’s all about the long-term game. You’ll see.

GS:
(grumbling) Value—I don’t know about your “value,” Steve. I know about championships. I’ve seen more World Series than you’ve had hot dinners. You better win, and win big, if you want to get anywhere near my level. Mark my words. Winning is what matters. You’re gonna learn that.

SC:
(grinning) Oh, I will, George. I will. Just wait.

(Pause)

GS:
Well, let’s see if the boys are doing anything worth watching today. I’m not interested in sitting here for a bunch of strikeouts. Get me results! And make sure they know they’re playing for the best. Nothing less.

SC:
Of course, George. You’re right. This game isn’t just about plays, it’s about perfection. And hey, when we hit it, the whole world will take notice.

GS:
That's what I want to hear. Now, let’s see some hustle out there!

(Both mutter about the game as it begins to unfold on the field)

Play-by-Play of the 10/19/2022 Game: Landlubbers vs. Bums
At Minute Maid Park, Houston, TX

Joe Buck: "Well, Tim, we're in for a long one tonight. This game is already going into extra innings after a very tight and thrilling affair. It's 4-4, and both teams are still battling it out. The Landlubbers have had some chances, but the Bums' bullpen has been nearly untouchable. We’ll see if someone can step up here in these extra innings."

Tim McCarver: "That's right, Joe. We've got some good arms on the mound, and both teams have shown the kind of resilience you love to see in postseason-type baseball. You just get the sense that it’s anyone’s game right now."

Top of the 1st - Landlubbers batting:
Joe Buck: "The Landlubbers send up Crawford to lead off. Kluber’s on the mound for the Landlubbers, and he's been solid this year. Crawford with a nice piece of hitting, lacing a single to right. A good start for the Landlubbers here."

Tim McCarver: "That was a nice piece of hitting, Joe. Crawford has been swinging the bat well, and he’s got the speed to be a real threat on the base paths."

Joe Buck: "And just like that, Crawford’s off to second, stealing the bag. Lopez’s wild pitch puts him in scoring position with one out."

Tim McCarver: "You know, Joe, this is the kind of aggressive base running you have to love in these types of games. It puts pressure on the defense right away."

Joe Buck: "Olson grounds into a double play, and the Landlubbers' rally is snuffed out. That’s a tough break for them."

Bottom of the 1st - Bums batting:
Joe Buck: "Here come the Bums, starting with Verdugo. He gets a single up the middle, and suddenly there’s trouble for Kluber."

Tim McCarver: "That’s a great piece of hitting. Verdugo’s been a consistent guy all season. If you're the Bums, you want him on base."

Joe Buck: "Madrigal follows with a single of his own, putting runners on first and second with nobody out. And here’s Joey Votto. He pops out to third base—big out for Kluber."

Tim McCarver: "That's a clutch out, Joe. Votto’s a tough out, but Kluber got him to pop up. The key now is to keep it together and minimize the damage."

Joe Buck: "But Alonso pops out as well, and Kluber’s one out away from getting out of the jam."

Tim McCarver: "But then Posey comes up, and boom—he drives one deep to left field! A two-run homer, and just like that, the Bums are up 3-0."

Joe Buck: "Posey has been clutch for this team, and that was a shot. I mean, you could tell it was gone off the bat. Now, Kluber’s in a real hole early."

Top of the 6th - Landlubbers batting:
Joe Buck: "The Landlubbers are still down by two, but here comes Crawford again, walking to lead off the inning."

Tim McCarver: "He’s been on base all night, Joe, and you know he's looking to steal again."

Joe Buck: "And sure enough, he’s off! Stolen base for Crawford, and he’s in scoring position again with one out."

Tim McCarver: "Olson’s at the plate now, and he’s got a chance to drive him in, but he flies out to left. A frustrating out for Olson."

Joe Buck: "Then Riley lines one to right, and Crawford scores. The Landlubbers are on the board, finally, making it 3-1."

Tim McCarver: "And that’s exactly what they needed, Joe—just to chip away at this lead. Now they’ve got to keep it going."

Top of the 7th - Landlubbers batting:
Joe Buck: "We’re in the 7th now, and Jansen’s up for the Landlubbers. He takes a 2-1 pitch deep to left-center, and it's gone! We’re tied at 3."

Tim McCarver: "What a shot! Jansen has really been hitting the ball well lately, and this game is officially back on. It's 3-3 now, and you can feel the momentum shifting."

Joe Buck: "Polanco lines out to center, and Carlson follows with a single, putting another runner on for the Landlubbers. They’re making a move here."

Tim McCarver: "But they can’t capitalize. Grossman grounds out, and Canha strikes out to end the threat. The game remains tied."

Bottom of the 7th - Bums batting:
Joe Buck: "The Bums are back at it. Arenado, who’s had a quiet night, steps up and—he crushes one! Deep down the left-field line, and that one is gone! The Bums take a 4-2 lead."

Tim McCarver: "Arenado has been quiet tonight, but that was a huge swing. He’s got that kind of power, and that home run is a big blow to the Landlubbers."

Joe Buck: "That’s exactly what the Bums needed to break this tie. Now they’re back up by two."

Top of the 8th - Landlubbers batting:
Joe Buck: "Crawford leads off with a single again—he’s been a thorn in the side of the Bums tonight."

Tim McCarver: "This is what we’re talking about. They’ve got to keep the pressure on if they want to claw back into this one."

Joe Buck: "And Olson’s up. He doubles down the third-base line. Crawford to third, and suddenly the Landlubbers have something brewing with no outs."

Tim McCarver: "Riley strikes out, but Odor comes in to pinch hit. And guess what, Joe—he grounds out, but Crawford scores, and Olson moves to third. It’s now 4-4."

Bottom of the 8th - Bums batting:
Joe Buck: "Posey walks to lead off the bottom of the 8th. The Bums have a chance to retake the lead here."

Tim McCarver: "Posey’s been patient, and now he’s on base. They’ve got to be aggressive here."

Joe Buck: "Arenado strikes out, but Bogaerts is walked intentionally. Now there are two on for Laureano, and he strikes out—big out by Pressly."

Tim McCarver: "That was huge. Pressly’s been effective out of the bullpen, and he just got that key strikeout."

Joe Buck: "Garcia flies out to right, and we remain tied at 4. Into the 9th inning we go."

Top of the 9th - Landlubbers batting:
Joe Buck: "And now the Landlubbers are up. Riley strikes out again, and the pressure is mounting. Odor strikes out as well, and Jansen lines out to second."

Tim McCarver: "It’s been a tough stretch for the Landlubbers, but they’re still hanging in there. It’s all on their pitching now."

Bottom of the 9th - Bums batting:
Joe Buck: "Posey grounds out to the mound, Arenado strikes out, and Bogaerts flied out to right. We're headed to extra innings!"

Tim McCarver: "Well, Joe, you’ve got to love the effort from both teams. The pitching has been outstanding on both sides, and this is turning into one of those classic postseason-type games."

And so on into extra innings...

(Note: The game continues on with tense extra-inning drama, filled with strikeouts, flyouts, and clutch pitching, leading to an eventual walk-off hit, which could either be a heroic moment for the Bums or a heartbreaking finish for the Landlubbers. The commentary would continue with the back-and-forth nature of this thrilling encounter.)

Just fantastic.

John Madden and Pat Summerall doing a baseball game was an interesting choice.

I also loved that it assumed Harry Carey was drunk.

But of course, Vin Scully’s is the best, “ Well folks, the game’s not over yet, but I think it’s safe to say this one’s been one for the ages. We’ll be right here to take you through the final moments, as baseball, once again, reminds us all why we love this game."
