Loveable Losers v. Mary Harts - NLCS

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Bringing in your fireman with a 4 run lead and 2 outs in the 8th? The Dodgers pen must be real thin.

Each win is gold and swings the balance of a seven game series by a big margin. You never manage for the next day unless you are way behind or have a massive lead.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Is this the playoffs or the regular season?
1.5 WHIP in another outing tonight. Had to get bailed out by Kenley.

A one game WHIP. Wow, you're serious.
Okay, you've convinced us all. He sucks.

 

[glasspusher]

The Dodgers have got two pitching gods. Can they ride them all the way?

As long as Puig doesn't start for the rest of the postseason.

Edit- and then, of course, he gets a single.

 

[Al Zarilla]

As long as Puig doesn't start for the rest of the postseason.

2 for 2! I see they've wheeled in Pete Rose on a dolly from the wax museum and Alex has him all set up for the post game.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Does this result tonight increase or decrease the chance of Kershaw in Game 5?

I think it decreases it a little. But unless they win tomorrow too, I think he'll go Thursday against Lester.

 

[Ale Xander]

INSURANCE!

It's a little known fact that ARod really cares about disabled senior citizens.

 

[Ale Xander]

Second guess bringing Kenley in?

 

[shawnrbu]

Okay, if you plate the 6th run here, you take Jansen out, right?

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

So if they get this 6th run in, is there any chance that they take Jansen out? Risky as hell, but interesting

 

[Ale Xander]

Wunderkind isn't perfect

 

[Oil Can Dan]

I pull Kenley for sure.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Second guess bringing Kenley in?

Why? They can sit him and ride Baez now.

 

[54thMA]

Second guess bringing Kenley in?

Up 6-0; does Roberts let him pitch the ninth or yank him?

 

[Ale Xander]

If Kendrick hits a HR, I say you take Kenley out.

 

[glasspusher]

So if they get this 6th run in, is there any chance that they take Jansen out? Risky as hell, but interesting

At this point, it's 6 of one, half dozen of the other.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Maddon would put Jansen in left field so he could bring him back in if needed

 

[54thMA]

I pull Kenley for sure.

He's coming back out to pitch the ninth.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Kenley's not keeping his arm warm, but it's LA.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Maddon would put Jansen in left field so he could bring him back in if needed

Catcher!

 

[Ale Xander]

Maddon would put Jansen in left field so he could bring him back in if needed

He was a catcher in a previous life, maybe he'd do that?

 

[Oil Can Dan]

Maddon would put Jansen in left field so he could bring him back in if needed

Love it

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Catcher!

Travis Wood played left field three times this season

 

[Ale Xander]

Beaten by AZ

 

[shawnrbu]

He was a catcher in a previous life, maybe he'd do that?

I heard catchers adjust well to the confines of Left Field.

Berra +
Swihart -

 

[glasspusher]

Seriously. A catcher is just the other terminal on a battery. What is wrong with people?

 

[Ale Xander]

Pull him now?

 

[Oil Can Dan]

One more batter then maybe.

 

[shawnrbu]

Pull him now?

The Dodgers don't have a 5th starter (Hello Ryan Dempster 2013) who can give you an inning with a 6 run lead?

Jansen is going to end up throwing 25+ pitches tonight.

 

[Sprowl]

Anthony! Anthony!

 

[Al Zarilla]

Anthony! Anthony!

Prince spaghetti day.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Anthony! Anthony!

You're a day early

 

[Sprowl]

I heard catchers adjust well to the confines of Left Field.

It's more like pinball, really, or Jai Alai. Glove speed and motor reflexes count for a lot.

 

[54thMA]

More uptight Cubs fan faces please.

 

[glasspusher]

In related news, the directv app on the ipad is a POS

 

[MuzzyField]

Maddon would put Jansen in left field so he could bring him back in if needed

Take a bow!

 

[glasspusher]

I was pretty good at pinball, but rarely wore gloves.

 

[54thMA]

Is Larry King propped up behind home plate or is he back home in his coffin?

 

[patinorange]

The Dodgers don't have a 5th starter (Hello Ryan Dempster 2013) who can give you an inning with a 6 run lead?

Jansen is going to end up throwing 25+ pitches tonight.

Maybe Roberts watched the last game of the Giants series?

 

[shawnrbu]

It is 63 degrees in LA. Why is Larry warming his hands?

 

[Sprowl]

On Turtle! On Donner! on Blixen!

 

[Ale Xander]

Alex Wood?

Roberts probably doesn't trust him. Not bad though, 66K in 60 IP, 1.26 WHIP

Plus could be long guy for tomorrow

 

[E5 Yaz]

It is 63 degrees in LA. Why is Larry warming his hands?

Reacharound time at the Lasordas

 

[Oil Can Dan]

Ruh roh

 

[54thMA]

I know there are a lot of people pulling for the Cubs, but this is all kinds of awesome.

The more drama, the better.

And that goes for the ALCS too.

 

[bankshot1]

time for Maddon to go to the silly road rally outfits

 

[glasspusher]

63F in So Cal to a native is the Ice Age

 

[MuzzyField]

Pajamas!

 

[shawnrbu]

Why does A-Rod keep licking his lips?

Seriously, A-Rod is very good in the studio.
