Didn't see a thread

I think I’d send my 3rd base coach home right now. How do you send him there

The Dodgers led the National league in homers and didn’t have a single player in the top 30 of avg exit velo. Thought that was interesting. Dodger Stadium might have to be considered a hitters haven with stat. Unheard of 5 or so years ago.

LA wins 6-0. Nationals got 2 measly hits.

Game thread closed for the night. See you guys tomorrow.

They hit almost the same amount on the road (136) as they did at home (143).

home: .264./.340/.483, 143 home runs, 441 runs scored in 3046 plate appearances
away: .251/.335/.462, 136 home runs, 445 runs scored in 3236 plate appearances

they've hit a little better at home, but not that much.

Corbin did a great job bouncing back from those walks, but the lineup just got completely shut down. Buehler is nasty.

Joc home runs are a thing of beauty. Even the foul ball before it was destroyed

Buehler vs Flaherty is what need in a LCS

Folty showed Flaherty how to pitch today.

Kershaw sucks in the playoffs unless he's facing the Braves.

ugh, looks like some narratives don't want to die tonight (Postseason Kershaw, Twins/Yanks).

Strasburg looked amazing tonight

LOL at Nats fans...they're almost as dumb as Barves fans, but not as bad.

VAMONOS DOYERS!

 

[bksballer89]

Why would you want the Kershaw narrative to change? Dude is a major douchebag.

My favorite thing about this series is that Anibal Sanchez (who had a 74 ERA+ from 2015-2017) and Rich Hill (who hadn't made any starts from 2010-14 and had thrown 182 total innings from 2008-2015) are starting postseason games. Especially Hill, he's been through so much.
