Oddly enough - that's basically how long the game went on for, as well.
:lol: I could understand if the feeling of wanting to quit and go home, but this game was a must win for the Dodgers. Coming back from a 1-2 deficit is one thing and tough enough, but no way in hell, the Dodgers could overcome 0-3. Sure felt like that game was 114 years

LOL, It would be hard to hate the Boston Red Sox like I do the Giants. :lol:

Dave Roberts played for both teams...as well as for the Dodgers.

It's pretty rare for an ex player to manage one of his former teams against another one of his former teams in a world series.

There was something I was surprised they didn't mention on the broadcast. The last pitcher to pinch-hit in a World Series game before Kershaw this morning was Rick Aguilera in Game 3 of the 1991 World Series, which was the only time it had happened since the DH was introduced. To be compared to that WS in that sort of way puts you in pretty special territory.

So the Dawjah’s got a win last night. Both teams are spent and we’ll see how well they can play tonight.

Should be interesting to see how tonight goes. My guess is that the Sox will start Rodriguez but it's possible they go with Pommeranz.

I will be very surprised if tonight's game is low scoring.

After that choke job it will be a big rest of fortitude.

Eddy threw 6 pitches so my guess is he gets the ball. Pomeranz for one time through the order. Hopefully that get some you to Kelly/Brasier/Kimbrel.

Kinslers Buckner buckner Moment cost them Eovaldi until game 6

Yeah I was thinking ERod as well.

Usually losing Game 3 when you are up 2-0 ain't so bad, but damned one out away from basically winning the Series is brutal. I wanted Cora to walk Puig to get to Grandal, I really didn't understand that move but he's been right way more than he's been wrong.

Hard to say he was wrong when he got a routine out that kinsler almost killed a camera guy with.
