Series Thread: NLDS - LA Dodgers vs Atlanta Braves

I think we protect our homefield in game 3. But lose in 4

I would think so too.

But beating Buehler will be really tough. Idk if the Braves bats can heat up enough against him

We're gonna have to start playing dirty here. I mean, you might get ejected, suspended and fined for tackling the first baseman at the bag on a groundout, but he'll have it in the back of his mind and be jumpy the rest of the game.

Hate to sound like a hypocrite after the Marlins did it to Acuna but Kershaws next at bat im throwing at him. We gots to be dirty.

Gausman has been really good at STP. That's the only hope we have.

Nah, we can't put the closest thing to an easy out in their lineup on base.

But maybe show Machado how Reuben Tejada felt after Chase Utley's slide.

Yeah no doubt he can be really tough to hit at times when he’s on.

Could be the type of game Braves win it late on Dodgers pen

Anibal hasn't been bad tonight. Made that one bad decision and it cost him dearly.

RUN THROUGH THE BAG!!

 

[DJ Fieri]

We need insurance runs....

I'm hoping the team has a little pride left in them, and I said going in I'd be happy to avoid a sweep.

Sunday is our best shot.

He was gonna be out anyways. Johan isn't as fast as you'd think he would be, but it is a stupid play unless it's to avoid a tag play on a bad throw.

Kershaw even sweating yet??

A lot of quick outs for sure.

I'm sure I'm forgetting some, but I only remember 1 strikeout.

 

[Mistaken4193]

He is going 9 without even throwing 90 pitches. We had our opportunity to set the tempo in the 1st after a leadoff double and didnt do it.

I doubt you are

I missed the first inning and haven’t seen one lol

He struck out Markakis to end the first. Pretty sure that's the only one.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Nice save

 

[Chewbaccer]

They say Suzuki rates as one of the worst defensive catchers, but the ERA splits with him catching vs FLowers catching is skewed heavily in Suzuki's favor. Calling a game is part of defense for the catcher.

 

[Chewbaccer]

I'll quit my bitching enough to give Acuna props on a nice catch. Maybe that'll spark the offense to force Kershaw to throw more than 10 pitches this inning.

 

[Mistaken4193]

That 3-0 mistake to Machado is gonna cost us. Should have buried one in the dirt.

 

[Chewbaccer]

I mean if you keep putting the ball in play, eventually something has to find a hole(get your heads out of the gutter) doesn't it?
