How 'bout them Dodgers!!!

[Just Regular]

As long as he is good enough, I am sure Strasburg will have 125+ pitches to try and do throwback Jack Morris things tomorrow but if it ends up just a regular game then I will be curious to see if they trust or shy away from Corbin after Sunday's meltdown.

Watching Game 3, I felt they should have gone to Corbin for Pederson/Muncy third time through despite Anibal's effectiveness.  Muncy cutting it to 2-1 kind of uncorked the bottle.

Kershaw comes in and one out later gives up back-to-back solo homers! Nats / Dodgers tied at 3-3 in the top of the 8th. Maeda in to pitch.

I almost started a thread titled: Kershaw.The first post was going to be “why?”  Then I saw your post and I walked away from the ledge a bit.

"Why?" because you thought Kersh was going to shut the Nats down? He does have that poor post-season record and the loss in his start earlier in the series.

If it was a random game in June he would have shut them down. He is the poster child for the idea that anti-clutchitude exists. There is a much bigger chunk of counter evidence that suggests it doesn’t. Then there is Kershaw. Why????

Dave Roberts pulls his best Buck leaving his closer in the pen in extras for someone else to give up a grand slam.

Cards over Braves, Nats over Dodgers: This is the aspect of baseball's playoffs I really dislike. We're about to see two teams that totaled 203 wins eliminated by two teams that won 184 games. But I understand why MLB does it.
