one thing about that Philly-Atl game, I’m reading about Rob Thomson….’cause I didn’t know who the manager was, thought it might still be Gene Mauch but it’s not, it’s Thomson, and I thought he should have taken Wheeler out after the single. Well I wasn’t aware that in last year’s World Series Thomson was criticized for taking Wheeler out too early, followed by a homerun given up by the reliever. So there’s that…
Gotta dominant starter like Wheeler, gotta ride him until he gives up more hits than that or coughs up the lead. Old school. Look at the Orioles-Rangers, both starters got yanked before going 5 innings in a 2-1 game. Obsessive behavior.
If Arizona wins the WS that means Angels will win next year.
‘01 and ‘02
been thinking the same –
i went to WS G1 & G7 both years
Ain’t happening …
Way to throw some cold water on those happy thoughts Frostie.
I was referring more to the Arizona part. That would have to happen FIRST.
Sewald on the mound, Mariners fan crying
This call is way too close to overturn but you have to take your shot there if you’re LA.
I was out to eat and left the Phillies (Game was on mega TV) at 4-0 Phillies. WTF happened? I hate the Braves!
Why does the NLDS get so many off days?
This is shades of the 2009 ALCS where MLB set everything up based upon CC Sabathia’s desired rest schedule
To get Kershaw two starts ha ha.
i think ALDS is off WED. ridiculous but it is tv
Nice escape job Snakes.
And LA weakened their defense.
Betts putting up Trout-like numbers in post-season.
😦
Dracula’s Daughter doing interviews. 👻
Bobby Wilson going 1 2/3 innings. He has future Angel written all over him.
Amazing. I thought he retired.
So we’re in on Wilson?
Miller
All these days off might save LA. In normal years their bullpen would be toast after two games.
I’m so glad the Angels picked Wil Wilson with Carrol still on the board.
So that means we would’ve traded Carroll instead of Wilson to get rid of that contract.
😄
Yeah that would have hurt!
Brutal.
criminal
Yes. Unforgivable
But we still got Davis Daniel and Kyren Paris from that draft so all is well
That ending to the Braves game was insane!
It was.
Can’t fault Harper for running there. For a second I thought he’d get back.
Yep. That was the right play by him. Like 15% chance that ball is caught. He needs to score if it’s not caught.

DBKS jumps to a 3-0 lead.
Go AZ!
The Latrine dwellers are already booing
Left-field View section (Reserved) is 80 % empty, lol.
Fairweather and entitled fanbase. Their team gets blown out in Game 1 and they abandon ship !!
Those seats will definitely be filled next year when Shohei becomes a Dodger.
And they’ll still lose in the first round .
Gotta jump on this rookie, now
A good start so far
With bases loaded, zero outs, 3 works.
I had Iglesias failing there
meanwhile D-Backs jump out early
Game, what an ending.
that’s one way to end it!
