2021 NL Wild Card Cardinals @ Dodgers Game Thread

[P'tucket rhymes with...]

Or just go back to four teams. Getting a fifth team in the mix just doesn't warrant this.

After the attention given to the wild-card race last weekend, it's difficult to imagine MLB going back to four.

DAAAAAAAAAAAMN

Were they checking gloves/hats in the Sox game last night?

Must be fun sitting behind this shit head.

 

[JCizzle]

No idea how these guys are able to react that fast. Incredible play!

Is that the ubiquitous Lou Adler, lower left? That dude never stays home.

In the beret, right?

Is that Lou Adler in the white hat? (far left)

 

[loshjott]

The guy looks thrilled.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Yeah, it's gotta be.

 

[E5 Yaz]

I had to look up five guys in the Cardinals starting lineup to see who they are

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Weird baseball head is gone.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Be interesting to see if the person who takes that seat is wearing the same shirt

 

[canderson]

Weird baseball head is gone.

Jack in the Box’s ad budget isn’t that big.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Scherzer looks pretty crappy. Can the Cards hit him hard, though?

 

[canderson]

Were they checking gloves/hats in the Sox game last night?

Yup. Eovaldi was checked multiple times.

 

[NJ_Sox_Fan]

What is that awful background noise?

 

[DeadlySplitter]

I know this is classic NL BASEBALL but Scherzer is too wild to keep bunting on him, even the pitcher

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Schtruggling

How does TBS not even have K-Zone?

 

[Brand Name]

Jack out of the box.

His pitch count is climbing fast: 42 after 2.

 

[timelysarcasm]

Pretty easy for me to root against the Dodgers when I remember their fans are also Lakers fans.

Add in the one million Betts jerseys I have to see in LA and go Cards.

 

[patinorange]

Old Joe has the hitter’s strike zone tonight.

 

[The Filthy One]

Wow. That’s a sick play.

Hahaha! YES!!

 

[brandonchristensen]

Yeah. No brainer. Go cards then go Braves and/or Brewers.

 

[bankshot1]

Ozzie would approve

 

[Sprowl]

Ozzie would approve

Iggy wouldn't mind either.

 

[Catcher Block]

The background noise is like someone in a well yelling through a bullhorn. It's maddening.

 

[ernieshore]

The guy looks thrilled.

Is that Jerry Seinfeld on the bottom right?

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

The guy looks thrilled.

Is that James Woods two seats behind Bighead?

 

[patinorange]

Magic looks huge.

 

[Strike4]

Scott Boras again!

 

[bankshot1]

Random thought but IIRC Billie Jean King had a brother (Ray? Moffett) who I remember pitching for the Giants.

 

[Coachster]

I grew up in LA. I went to Dodger Stadium a lot. Hell, I even worked there selling programs at double headers. I haven’t been to the stadium since maybe 1974 and haven’t watched a game from there for years.

No surprise, but Dodger Stadium looks NOTHING like it used to.

 

[loshjott]

Zimmer!

Randy

 

[NJ_Sox_Fan]

Remember when Bellinger was one of the best players in baseball?

 

[brandonchristensen]

Protip: don’t walk the number 8 hitter

 

[bankshot1]

Randy

Not really, I'm tired.

 

[Coachster]

If you keep looking at Lou Adler, he never moves. Is he dead? Is this a Weekend at Bernies thing?

 

[brandonchristensen]

Classic Dodgers tampering. They suppress his numbers with voodoo and then sign him to a long term affordable deal and then pull off the magic and get him for long and cheap.

Now I'm seeing things ... is that what's left of Shannen Doherty two seats to the left of Adler?

 

[brandonchristensen]

Luckily for the Cards, the next hitter doesn’t do shit in the playoffs.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Were they checking gloves/hats in the Sox game last night?

I definitely saw Eovaldi getting checked by the ump on his way to the dugout after an inning.

 

[NJ_Sox_Fan]

Sosa not having a good night

 

[DanoooME]

Novak Djokovic would be jealous at the topspin on that Mookie hit. Mookie, not so much.

 

[brandonchristensen]

Terrible pitching
