2021 NLDS 101: Giants v. Dodgers Game Thread

[Sprowl]

Mookie looked pretty bad on Buster's oppo drive. Posey got a lot of hang time off a one-handed swing.

Why is Bryant sitting tonight? Injury?

Why is Bryant sitting tonight? Injury?

He's in center

 

[E5 Yaz]

He's in center

Leave me alone ... I'm old

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Leave me alone ... I'm old

You're not alone

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Bryant is going to get paid so much money. Position versatility is the new black.

I would bet that it's the Giants that are going to pay him that money. It seems to be quite a match.

What about Marwin Gonzalez?

 

[Sprowl]

You're not alone

More than half of us are still alive.

More than half of us are still alive.

Is the glass half empty or half full?

 

[Kliq]

These Giants pitchers move painfully slow.

Wait until they get older

For now.

 

[LogansDad]

Fuuuuuuucccck

 

[barbed wire Bob]

Is Kapler going for the Joe Maddon look?

Well that was disappointing.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Pollack has been great for the Dodgers this year

 

[LogansDad]

Taylor probably should have been rung up on the 2-2 pitch, too. This is a terrible turn of events.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Welp ... let's see what the Dodgers' pen has tonight

 

[dynomite]

I will never be able to root against Mookie and Dave Roberts and Joe Kelly.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Yep. Angel's strike zone doesn't seem terrible but he squeezed Leone on those fastballs just off the plate.

This game may still have some turns left.

 

[LogansDad]

God damn it, Flores. Get rid of your piano.

 

[Sprowl]

Mookie's still got a hose.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Why the hell are you running with two out? You're going from second on contact anyway

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Marcus Lynn Betts

 

[Just a bit outside]

What a throw! Mookie can still play.

 

[AB in DC]

That's basically a perfect play by Mookie.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Kris Lynn Bryant

 

[LogansDad]

Oh my. The defense in this game right now is something else.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Longo struggling to get that throw across

 

[The Filthy One]

Sox seem like the only team left that doesn't have 4 closers to go to.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Robles, Whitlock, and Taylor. At least 3!!!!

 

[The Filthy One]

Robles, Whitlock, and Taylor. At least 3!!!!

Who did Taylor close for? Or is he more of a future closer for the A's (where he'll probably rack up 45 saves)?

 

[LogansDad]

Will Smith is an absolute stud.

 

[The Filthy One]

I like when the pitching coach comes out to talk to the guy after he threw one pitch that went 405 feet. "Um...ok...uh...let's try something else."

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Who did Taylor close for? Or is he more of a future closer for the A's (where he'll probably rack up 45 saves)?

Exactly! I'm from the future.

Of course, if we're looking backward, we do have Barnes and Ottavino, so...

 

[The Filthy One]

This is the first playoff series in which both teams are managed by members of the The 25, isn't it?

 

[E5 Yaz]

Unless you count that Andy Dominique/Jamie Brown showdown.

 

[Ale Xander]

Nice tagline

 

[canderson]

Evan Longoria is still playing baseball and just took Max Scherzer deep.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

The Dodgers could use a clutch HR from Joc Pederson or Kike.

 

[Ale Xander]

Starter going into the7th. Bizzarro world

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Playoff baseball is so torturous

 

[loshjott]

Gabe Kaplar appears to have bright orange cinder blocks on his feet.

 

[Ed Hillel]

This crowd is so bad

 

[joe dokes]

Starter going into the7th. Bizzarro world

7th inning of a west coast game and it isn't 2am. Refreshing.

 

[Ale Xander]

Crawfid steals from Mook

 

[loshjott]

That was a play.

 

[Just a bit outside]

Betts robbed by Crawford to save the lead.

 

[patinorange]

Crawford. Wow.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Crawford is low key a beast
