They really didn't look that intimidating this series.

They're the best team in baseball this year without a doubt, but I wouldn't count us out. We're one year removed from an almost identical regular season, and we've improved our pitching without changing the offence. If everything clicks for us in these playoffs (which it certainly has the potential to given the talent on the roster), we're just as dangerous.

And the Even Year streak is over

Hope we move on to face the winner of Nats/Dodgers

Looks like the Dodgers are probably moving on.

Some questionable decision by Dusty in that 7th inning.

This game is getting very interesting.

Jansen on 7th inning....a mistake or a brilliant strategy?

Game just got interesting...Has Kershaw made the NLCS yet?

Kershaw went to NLCS a few times. Never won a game though

Wow, big strikeout. Very big one

Here we go again. Another interesting inning to start

Kershaw is in the bullpen warming up. Wow

Do or Die. And will Kershaw really come in?

If need be. Jansen's season high in pitches was 30...he's 50% higher than that already.

Noobslife · Post #494 » by **Noobslife** » Fri Oct 14, 2016 4:33 am

Finally, Kershaw's coming out. Will he be the hero?

Dave Roberts in desperately trying to one-up Buck Showalter. Bringing Jansen in for the seventh was ballsy, and not a bad decision IMO. Leaving Jansen in for three innings was pure madness, though.

Dave Roberts is going to blow this. Kershaw should have started the inning.

Almost 35 years to the day, bringing in Kershaw in Game 5 will be the Dodgers "Blue Monday" moment, where the stud starter gives up the big hit. (of course it's not Monday and Rick Monday but whatever)

Noobslife · Post #498 » by **Noobslife** » Fri Oct 14, 2016 4:37 am

But Kershaw isn't Bumgarner....

No pressure or anything, kid.

Wilmer Difo? Who in the blue hell are you.
