I had the chance to go to yesterday's game or today's. I went yesterday.

I chose very poorly.

Let's just hope that Kershaw doesn't face any left-handed pull hitters, because this happened the last time he did this on short rest in the postseason: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tHa63o9ujA

two PT games + the other game involves the Cubs = LA/WSH gets screwed

e: my Dodgers opinions are that they're a cool team that is rivals with my club because of Historical Reasons that involve Tom Niedenfuer, El Mariachi Loco is the best walk-up song in baseball, and I liked Nancy Bea as their organist, although their new guy is good when he's with the Kings

Gotta disagree. The two play-in games this year were two of the most exciting of the postseason to this point, imo

Too bad it wasn't loving Puig in RF, I'm glad Roberts let the idiot that dropped the ball yesterday start.

Reddick has a very good arm and Trea Turner is really fast. Puig would not have gotten him either
