Sometimes you just gotta tip your hat, look yourself in the mirror, and say, "You know what? It is what it is. We didn't execute."

The only other time that a catcher had an error, passed ball, and catcher's interference in the same postseason inning came exactly one year ago today in NLDS Gm 5 - The Nats' Matt Wieters had a passed ball and error on the same play, followed by CI. https://t.co/YvCQdZLvz4— Stats By STATS (@StatsBySTATS) October 13, 2018

I don’t think it’s a terrible idea. He’s looked lights out coming into this one.

Thought Taylor's ball was going out. Turner completing the golden sombrero with the tying run on third was quite the ending.
Four hours to play a 6-5 nine inning game ... welcome to the no-starter era.

I guess we can go back to talking about how Kershaw isn't clutch, now that he's had his shortest ever postseason start and gave up a home run to a left handed batting pitcher.
― NoTimeBeforeTime, Saturday, 13 October 2018 04:31 (five years ago) link
I really think that giving up a home run to the opposing pitcher does terrible things to the psyche. I've never seen anyone have a good start after that.

Fell asleep and missed the Dodgers' near-comeback. I'm still mystified as to why they pulled Gonzalez, fluky HR or no HR. You get a proven veteran down the stretch in anticipation of making the playoffs, he pitches very well in his last three starts, and then you pull him after two innings in the LCS opener after 32 pitches. After which, you get your win but burn through seven pitchers. Just going by the boxscore, it looks like that old thing where Counsell kept throwing out pitchers until he found the one guy--Soria, I take it--who didn't have his stuff.

I assumed at the time he had some kind of injury - but I guess that wasn’t the case?!
― Mad Piratical (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Saturday, 13 October 2018 19:31 (five years ago) link
Can't find anything online. I guess they just wanted to get Woodruff and his .958 OPS+ up to the plate--they had to choose between burning a starter or a reliever, and they chose the latter. (I'm being facetious, I think.)

He only throws in the low 90's, but this Kershaw kid might have a future as a closer in the bigs. This wasn't a save situation though, so we can't really be sure that he has that closer mentality until he pitches in a close game.

The AB I keep thinking about was Aguilar in the 2nd. 3-2 and he swings at a high fastball that’s like a foot out of the zone. After that there was a long single and a deep fly, Aguilar certainly would have scored and the game would be tied, at least. You wonder if they would’ve played a little looser after that. Then you got the Puig HR which doesn’t happen if they can pull off a routine double play (Bellinger is pretty fast of course), or Taylor’s amazing run-saving catch that Joc almost certainly wouldn’t have made. Just a lotta weird variance in this game. Probably why we made it so far in the first place, of course. Oh well. Was a great year.

Was he done, or could he have gone another inning? He'd thrown 31 pitches.
