    Kershaw needs to mix it up with his first pitch, they are jumping on his first pitch fastballs.

    DBacks got a run on the homer but Kersh is dealing.

    Last few seasons teams have tried to be ultra aggressive with kershaw because they know he is going to come at them with that first pitch. I agree he needs to mix that first pitch up so they aren't sitting dead red

    Damn Cody B makes a Golden Glove play to end the Top of 4th. Helped Kershaw was kinda struggling for his control

    Granderson is stinking it up like usual today. Him and Grandal are such feast or famine hitters.

    Yea at the plate both aren't killing it for sure but they aren't killing us either.

    Kershaw takes out the pitching wedge and drops one on the green

    what do you think about keeping him out there for the 7th?

    edit: bottom of the order, looks like it should be okay for now to leave him on.

    edit 2: big mistake to keep him out there.

    He needs to be out there as he gives up back to back jacks. I think he has to get over his th inning woahs. Not likely today. 100 pitches. Great game pitched but 4 homers is too much. DBacks will make you pay for bad pitches. Bullpen needs to come in and do what they had done for most of the year. Close the door.

    Not really. Ha. This doesn’t bode well for the rest of the playoffs. He has a chink in the armor. First pitches...

    It is baffling that 7th inning for Kershaw. I mean masterful games 1-6 innings and then the 7th comes. We lost WS chances because of those 7th inning let downs (and we couldn't hit with guys on base)

    Great bullpen work. Lets see if our bottom guys can get a couple of those back.

    Grandy gets it to the outfield but too shallow to score Puig. Ugh. We need to get this run.

    That is horrible outcome in that inning. Both Grandy and Grandal fail to get it done.

    Grander son sees the ball well, but it looks like his reflexes might. It be up for it.
