Playoff Game Thread

[Chavez Ravine]

So far at least, the division series games have been far more entertaining than the wild card games. The whole wild card round was a massive dud.

[Just Regular]

Costas just had tidbit Christian Walker has as many HR off Clayton Kershaw as any Bat in MLB history.

[Chavez Ravine]

Dang. The Diamondbacks just KO’d Kershaw…and probably the Dodgers in the first inning.

[Chavez Ravine]

Lol. Kershaw did nothing to shift the mythology of his post season. If anything, this was the year they needed him to be the hero.

[Chavez Ravine]

Lol. Who replaced Hanser Alberto on the Dodgers junk time sheet?

[OsFanSinceThe80s]

Apparently this is doctored audio, but very funny from Bob Costas.

I didn't realize what a strong year Gabriel Moreno had had.     The announcers made Yadi comps when talking about catcher ERA, and there was one of those With or Without You graphics illustrating the Diamondbacks were a hair over .600 with him in the lineup and a hair under .400 without him.

B-Ref has Daulton Varsho with 3.9 WAR, Lourdes Gurriel 3.0 WAR and Moreno 4.3 WAR as the Year 1 outcomes following one of last offseason's highest value trades.

If the O’s are out at any stage, the baseball season will be over so far as I’m concerned.

I watch them all until the bitter end…although some more intently than others.

How come our guys can never foul off 99 up in the zone?

[baltfan]

Almost like they know what is coming. With two strikes every one of them shortens up and they are putting the ball into play into holes. 

[Just Regular]

Huge Austin Riley homer four outs away from a 2-0 deficit gives ATL a 5-4 lead going to the 9th.

ATL will use 8th inning guy AJ Minter leading off 9th as announcers just had tidbit Bryce, due up first, is 7-for-10 with 4 HR off Raisel Iglesias.

Raisel probably gets Realmuto-Castellanos after Bryce looking for 1-1.

[Just Regular]

I might have just seen the beginning of the tide going out on the high water mark of Bryce's career.

What a game.
