[Al Zarilla]

Those tall buildings in LA there don’t exist. They’re photoshopped in.

 

[fineyoungarm]

BOB!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Al Zarilla]

Big Newk and Sandy!

 

[fineyoungarm]

Koufax has ridiculous DNA.

 

[barbed wire Bob]

Sandy Koufax is 81? He sure looks good.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Sandy Koufax is 81? He sure looks good.

His face is 17

 

[fineyoungarm]

His face is 17

Imagine if he had worked on a knuckler.

 

[staz]

Kershaw.

Now.

 

[LogansDad]

Flat pitches will not be good for Darvish.

 

[strek1]

Well so much for the revenge no hitter for Darvish

 

[Al Zarilla]

Cement mixer slider.

 

[fineyoungarm]

"And 81 year oid - Jesus - Sandy Koufax gets the nod for game 7"

 

[strek1]

WOW that was FAST

 

[fineyoungarm]

Dave - get somebody up - NOWb

 

[VORP Speed]

Ugghh.

 

[McBride11]

Yu was there, Bellinger with a terrible throw.

 

[LogansDad]

Yep, better have someone warming soon.

 

[Average Reds]

Man ... went to get a beer and it's already 1-0.

 

[fineyoungarm]

NOW DAVE!

 

[McBride11]

No throw? edit - on the steal not the out at first

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Yu was there, Bellinger with a terrible throw.

It was a hard play but yes, a really bad throw.

 

[staz]

Dodgers are getting punched in the mouth.

 

[LogansDad]

Ok, settle down Yu.

 

[Average Reds]

So at least Houston seems ready for this game.

 

[fineyoungarm]

Webster - "Now" - Immediately, at once, let no time pass.

 

[VORP Speed]

This is awful.

Charley Steiner didn't even get out his knock-off It's Time for Dodger Baseball before it was 1-0. And now 2-0.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Tired of hearing things were done against Boston and not since.

 

[fineyoungarm]

Gurriel has done his penance.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Dodgers are getting punched in the mouth.

Not really

There’s an awesome story that Buzzy Bavasi wanted to take Koufax for the Padres in the 1969 expansion draft, as he was still only 30 or something and his arm was feeling better. But the O’Malleys basically told him they’d have him killed if he dared go there.

 

[fineyoungarm]

Not really

A mere flesh wound.

 

[dhappy42]

Nice gesture from Gurriel.

All’s forgiven. (I’m all about forgiveness.)

Wow

 

[LogansDad]

Gurriel has done his penance.

I agree.

 

[fineyoungarm]

Quite an at bat

 

[twibnotes]

That was excellent announcing and camera work when smoltz talking about getting under the ball

 

[Average Reds]

Darvish has been hanging curveball after curveball this at bat, and he's getting away with it.

For now.

 

[fineyoungarm]

Yikes

 

[twibnotes]

Darvish has been hanging curveball after curveball this at bat, and he's getting away with it.

For now.

Yeah, his offspeed stuff has lacked bite

 

[DanoooME]

Hell of an AB by Gurriel even if it ended with a weak fly ball.

 

[LogansDad]

Ok, it's not over. That's all I ask...

Not so snazzy of a story, but the Dodgers were going to trade Jackie Robinson to the Giants after the 1956 season but Jackie retired instead.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Buster Kirkjian told a story during the Cubs series about how Darvish gets so incredibly wound up during crucial starts that he sometimes will vomit between innings.

One does not trade Jackie Robinson.

 

[Brand Name]

Teams to score 2+ in the first of a Game 7 are only 2-2, including the 1925 Senators, who scored 4.

Imagine the confidence in the dugout that inspires! BK gets great scoops.

I mean, maybe Bavasi wanted to take him. (And Koufax would have been 33.) But given how badly injured Koufax was when he retired, I can't imagine he would have seriously considered it.

 

[LogansDad]

Oh man. This game is going to be AWESOME.

 

[fineyoungarm]

Get somebody up Hince

 

[Al Zarilla]

Seager and Bellinger both look to me like they could drop into a hole worse than Bogaerts.
