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
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)
