I’m rooting for the Dodgers, but that was one of the worst reversed calls I’ve ever seen. Home plate ump had it right, but changed it because the player complained? Please. And Maddon gets tossed for being right? That’s horrible umpiring. If Granderson had hit a home run, wow.
We shouldn't have had Granderson up there in the first place. Doc hasn't shown much conviction to win this game.
Cingrani giving the natives something to cheer about and carryover to the next game, if that happens.
man we couldn't get the big hit when we needed it. First time in the playoffs we failed to really get that hit. Tough loss but sweeping the cubs was a wish not a given. I think Roberts went with a backup lineup to give guys some rest. I see the lineup we started the series with tomorrow. And FK Baez hit out some tough pitches. Both those homers were out of the zone and usually strike out pitches. I don't like that we didn't win but not hating the game overall. I'm with Real though Granderson and Grandal should really only pinch hitting from time to time. Although I understand why he is doing now with this huge lead. If we are going to win the WS (gotta get there) we will need big hits from a role player or two by the end of it. Lets close it out tomorrow.
I was very, very unhappy with that lineup. There's zero reason for Granderson, Grandal, Ethier, and Utley to be starting let alone starting all the same game. That's just asking for us to fail. Even so, we were in positions to succeed and routinely failed last night. That's not acceptable to me. Hopefully these guys come back as focused as ever tomorrow night because the longer this stretches out, the more that bad 0-15 stretch or whatever it was will come back to haunt them.
I’m still just happy we’re sitting on 3-1 against the Champs without Seager. Now this is Kersh’s moment. I want a shutout tonight.
The Dodger's had multiple chances to advance the runner with 0 or 1 out with a sacrifice bunt, but didn't. Can someone tell me why? Last inning, one on, I think one out, with Bell up and JT on deck. I'd take the chance with the bunt and Bell's speed, and have a hot JT coming up.
Kershaw needs to man the f*** up and get them to the world series tonight. His career playoff performance / reputation compared to regular season excellence not in the same.... ahem ..... ballpark.
Wow. A gorgeous game. It's safe to say that Kiki and Logan will be playing for the rest of the post season now. Putting the 2017 NLCS MVP at 2 was genius by Roberts. Even if Seager comes back I keep him there.
If I were at the game and we’re a cubs fan, i’d head to the bar right now to start forgetting the day.
World. Effing. Series. It's been far, far too long. Just 4 more games and we bring a title back home... I can almost taste it.
Damn, what a beat down of the Cubs. Dodgers should feel really good about their chances right now. How cool would a Dodgers-Yankees WS be, LA vs NY, 2 of the great franchises of all time.
