  • 2019 MLB Playoffs

    Might as well start this one now. Washington, down 3-1 in the bottom of the eighth, just loaded the bases. Soto then hit 3 in.

    Can the Nationals not choke?!? We’ll soon find out!

    They did not, in fact, choke.

      Crazy ending to the game!!
      "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

        A ton of blown opportunities for the A’s. Tampa Bay looks solid.

          Would have loved to have these pitches when Joe Kelly was a Red Sox

            A strong first game for the Dodgers.

            Would he not have been a Red Sock?

              No. There can be only one:

                I don’t get it. Kelly was dominant on the Red Sox last year. This year he has sucked for the dodgers but was good last night after the first hitter he faced.

                  I'm just remembering a few games last year, when both he and Kimbrel were struggling to get strikes. He was good overall, but last night just seemed he was dialed in like crazy.

                    After a rough (really rough) first couple months of the season, Kelly has been one of our best relievers. His stats belie how good he has been, because he hasn't pitched in enough games to really overcome his truly awful start to the season. IIRC, last year with the Sox he was pretty pedestrian in the regular season, but dialed it up in the postseason. I distinctly remember a number of Sux fans expressing a "who are you, and what have you done with Joe Kelley" sentiment last postseason. Hopefully that's what's going to happen this year. Here's to 10 more wins where we don't even have to see Jansen warm up.

                      Jansen will certainly bring the pucker factor for Dodgers fans. Maeda was nails - I turned the game on just in time to see him and the late-inning rakefest by the Dodgers batters.

                        I am of the opinion that Jansen shouldn’t be our closer. I love the guy but he is not the same pitcher he was a couple of seasons ago. I know you probably can’t switch him out of that role at this point but man I get scared when he comes in.

                        Let’s just hope we continue to not need high leverage pitching late in games.

                        BTW. I love Post season Joc. And Lux is going to be a superstar.

                          I enjoyed last night's game very much.

                          Didn't care for Little behind the plate. Also really didn't care for Belly going down looking to that clown Fernando Rodney. I hope he doesn't end up like Kershaw in the playoffs. Like you said Stripper, thank goodness for October Joc. And yes Lux is going to be a great.

                            Also from last night-

                            Announcers: "This is the fewest hits allowed in Dodgers postseason history."

                            Me to my daughter: "What are they doing? The just jinxed it."

                            Next pitch: Nats rap one down the left field line for a hit.
