apology accepted

johnny crunch, Friday, 7 October 2016 16:53 (seven years ago) link

I'm hearing game 3 is at noon on Monday. LA thanks you for this gift, MLB.

However I have the day off so I'll probably be there.

@Lynn_Henning
Kenny Albert's voice sounds like something he has to plug in and charge at night.

johnny crunch, Saturday, 8 October 2016 00:59 (seven years ago) link

That last strike to Heisey even if you did square up to it and make contact, it would have been a foul ball or hit it right into the dirt.

johnny crunch, Saturday, 8 October 2016 01:23 (seven years ago) link

johnny crunch, Saturday, 8 October 2016 01:24 (seven years ago) link

rainout huh

johnny crunch, Saturday, 8 October 2016 20:15 (seven years ago) link

kinda irritated at 1pm makeup scheduled vs my 3-hour Romanian film at NYFF

The Hon. J. Piedmont Mumblethunder (Dr Morbius), Sunday, 9 October 2016 14:26 (seven years ago) link

Reynolds is impressed with Seager's "girth."

Andy K, Sunday, 9 October 2016 19:38 (seven years ago) link

That also stuck out for me as a weird word choice.

Michael F Gill, Sunday, 9 October 2016 19:52 (seven years ago) link

Was there a flock of birds just hanging out in the infield on that last ground out?

Michael F Gill, Sunday, 9 October 2016 20:09 (seven years ago) link

the Harper-college kid laundromat ad is suuuuch a porn setup

The Hon. J. Piedmont Mumblethunder (Dr Morbius), Monday, 10 October 2016 00:14 (seven years ago) link

k3vin k., Tuesday, 11 October 2016 18:40 (seven years ago) link

What's the line on this thing

calstars, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 18:55 (seven years ago) link

LA should do well against the right hander right?

calstars, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 18:55 (seven years ago) link

ross has not thrown many innings since returning from injury, whos behind him for wsh if they need long-ish relief idk

johnny crunch, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 18:59 (seven years ago) link

http://www.espn.com/mlb/insider/story/_/id/17771259/starting-kershaw-game-4-wrong-call-mlb

k3vin k., Tuesday, 11 October 2016 19:38 (seven years ago) link

Agree, have to go Kershaw

calstars, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 19:42 (seven years ago) link

http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-dodgers-should-start-julio-urias/

lotta empty seats

Spottie, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 21:12 (seven years ago) link

@ScottMillerBbl
Mgr Dave Roberts on starting Kershaw on short rest: Way pen been used past couple days, Urias pitch count is issue, w/Kershaw can go deeper

The Hon. J. Piedmont Mumblethunder (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 11 October 2016 21:13 (seven years ago) link

that ball 4 to harper looked pretty good

k3vin k., Tuesday, 11 October 2016 21:15 (seven years ago) link

not off to a great start

mookieproof, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 21:20 (seven years ago) link

RIP dodgers

k3vin k., Tuesday, 11 October 2016 21:24 (seven years ago) link

The Hon. J. Piedmont Mumblethunder (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 11 October 2016 21:27 (seven years ago) link

I should be watching this live but an empty beer garden is inviting.

calstars, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 21:29 (seven years ago) link

hope buck is watching

qualx, Friday, 14 October 2016 03:47 (seven years ago) link

he has to go the 8th but unless it's reaaaal quick i can't see him going out in the 9th

k3vin k., Friday, 14 October 2016 03:50 (seven years ago) link

David Vassegh ‏@THEREAL_DV
Kershaw and Dave Roberts having a conversation right now in dugout. 9th inning may still be in the plans.

i've watched a lot of cats do weird and interesting things (slothroprhymes), Friday, 14 October 2016 03:51 (seven years ago) link

:o

k3vin k., Friday, 14 October 2016 03:52 (seven years ago) link

lol stephen fucking drew bullshitted his way onto another contender my god

i've watched a lot of cats do weird and interesting things (slothroprhymes), Friday, 14 October 2016 03:54 (seven years ago) link

i forgot that

i've watched a lot of cats do weird and interesting things (slothroprhymes), Friday, 14 October 2016 03:54 (seven years ago) link

Jansen should catch the ninth.

Andy K, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:13 (seven years ago) link

HERE COME CLAYTON

i've watched a lot of cats do weird and interesting things (slothroprhymes), Friday, 14 October 2016 04:14 (seven years ago) link

k3vin k., Friday, 14 October 2016 04:17 (seven years ago) link

jensen killing time to get one of the outs his own self, i guess

i've watched a lot of cats do weird and interesting things (slothroprhymes), Friday, 14 October 2016 04:23 (seven years ago) link

....or not?

i've watched a lot of cats do weird and interesting things (slothroprhymes), Friday, 14 October 2016 04:24 (seven years ago) link

ok i don't have fs1 so i can't see this but asking kenle y for three innings seems unwise

mookieproof, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:25 (seven years ago) link

huh

k3vin k., Friday, 14 October 2016 04:26 (seven years ago) link

I would have brought in Kershaw once Harper stalled on 1-0. You want even more time? All right.

Andy K, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:27 (seven years ago) link

i want roberts to keep kenley in until he loses and in the post-game presser he says "i couldn't bring clayton in, he's a starter, closers get the save"

qualx, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:28 (seven years ago) link

If not now, when?

Andy K, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:28 (seven years ago) link

he's thrown 45 pitches, fucking bring in kershaw

k3vin k., Friday, 14 October 2016 04:28 (seven years ago) link

holy fuck he's staying in

qualx, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:29 (seven years ago) link

literally the most pitches he's ever thrown!

qualx, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:29 (seven years ago) link

man if kershaw comes in and gives up the winning hit i'm gonna cry

k3vin k., Friday, 14 October 2016 04:30 (seven years ago) link

"We were saving Clayton for two outs, bases loaded."

Andy K, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:30 (seven years ago) link

if werth gets 3-1 he's gonna go deep

mookieproof, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:31 (seven years ago) link

dusty looking on like wtf take him out

qualx, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:31 (seven years ago) link

this crazy

Spottie, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:33 (seven years ago) link

kershaw has been warming up the entire inning

qualx, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:34 (seven years ago) link

at least roberts didn't give kenle y the game ball

mookieproof, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:34 (seven years ago) link

pretty sure kershaw's thrown 50 pitches in the bullpen by now

"Without a arm I spit." -- Kenley Geronimo Jansen

Andy K, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:35 (seven years ago) link

the most batters jansen faced in a single game all year was 6. i think he faced 12 tonight??

I look forward to hearing from you shortly, (Karl Malone), Friday, 14 October 2016 04:35 (seven years ago) link

95 mph, damn

k3vin k., Friday, 14 October 2016 04:37 (seven years ago) link

that was a strike btw

k3vin k., Friday, 14 October 2016 04:37 (seven years ago) link

i just realized this game has been going for 4.5 hours straight

qualx, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:37 (seven years ago) link

omg, it's kershaw vs a guy named difo

I look forward to hearing from you shortly, (Karl Malone), Friday, 14 October 2016 04:39 (seven years ago) link

No pressure.

Andy K, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:41 (seven years ago) link

what an odd game

Mad Piratical (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Friday, 14 October 2016 04:42 (seven years ago) link

thread title does not deliver

Michael F Gill, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:42 (seven years ago) link

dangit, i had just bet $500 on difo, i definitely thought he was going to get the best of baseball legend clayton kershaw

I look forward to hearing from you shortly, (Karl Malone), Friday, 14 October 2016 04:42 (seven years ago) link

Can't believe Rob Wilfong struck out.

Andy K, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:43 (seven years ago) link

man that was fucking sick

k3vin k., Friday, 14 October 2016 04:43 (seven years ago) link

Spottie, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:43 (seven years ago) link

Did Reynolds say "I thought this game was managed in so many moves"?

Andy K, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:51 (seven years ago) link

Thought for sure he was going to get a hit--Wilmer Difo sounded so much like the name of someone who'd get a hit in that situation.

clemenza, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:51 (seven years ago) link

Nice to see Yardbarker blogger Dontrelle Willis.

Andy K, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:57 (seven years ago) link

I'm still upset his intro music was never by D-Train

Michael F Gill, Friday, 14 October 2016 04:59 (seven years ago) link

this was a great series. not surprised dodgers wins were all of the one run variety.
