[BornToRun]

Happy Cardinals fans. Gross.

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

7th inning lefty on the stretch deja vu

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

What a playoff season

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

oH boy, post-season is not kershaw's time. 

he just gotta quit after 6

 

[Al Zarilla]

Kershaw, you don't keep wearing a hat with all that sweat and dirt. That's the unlucky one.

 

[DJnVa]

Jesus. That's the kind of thing that could linger.

 

[fineyoungarm]

Mattingly may get the axe between innings

 

[54thMA]

If this was Little League, the Dodgers would be in fine shape

 

[DJnVa]

HOLY SHIT, HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHA

 
Are you happy that Cardinals fans are happy?????

 

[dcmissle]

Can't play with fire on a pitcher on short rest.

You could FEEL that coming. Greed.

 

[Kramerica Industries]

lol AJP cheering!

 

[VORP Speed]

I'm following on game day...did I accidentally tap into Friday's game feed or did mattingly let Kershaw stay in past 100 pitches once he started to struggle on 3 days rest??

 

[William Robertson]

Damn. On short rest you hook after the first hit.

 

[Paint Box]

Wow, eh? What a post season so far ... absurd, really.
 
 
Gawd I Love Baseball!!!

Magic just sent a blank check to Andrew Miller's agent

Kate Upton dating Kershaw in the offseason?

 

[Hank Scorpio]

I'm happy that Carl Crawford is miserable.

 

[fineyoungarm]

 
I'm happy that Carl Crawford is miserable.

Hank, I like the way you think. 

 

[DJnVa]

Mattingly may get the axe between innings

 
For not taking out the guy tossing a 1 hitter with 9 Ks?
 
EDIT: Short rest...so, yeah..

 

[William Robertson]

Kershaw should attack Mattingly with a bat.

 

[BornToRun]

 
I'm happy that Carl Crawford is miserable.

Somehow, he'll find a way to blame this whole thing on Red Sox fans.

 

[fineyoungarm]

Joe - This game may not be a long way from being over.

 

[MakMan44]

Mattingly may get the axe between innings

God, he should. Awful managing. 

 

[Harry Hooper]

Booing a pitch in the butt in this situation? So much for the "knowledgeable" Cards fans.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Getting hit is a good AB for John Jay. 

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Mattingly has a shit bullpen and an ace who can't finish. Tough spot for a manager.

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

The lines at Ted Drewes are going to be extra insane tonight

 

[fineyoungarm]

 I'm just trying to add to the drama of a boring game.

[William Robertson]

We may now like the broadcasters, but that analysis by Verducci was solid.

 

[MakMan44]

I didn't see what happened before the HR, but why not pull him before Adams? He had to give up at least 2 baserunners without getting an out, I can't believe he was left out there for the Adams AB. 

 

[soxhop411]

I still think he is fired on the way back to LA if they do not win this series. Will try and steal TB's manager with a blank check.

Plus wasn't it super hot during the last game too? Might have been more draining than a normal outing. 

 

[Harry Hooper]

BTW, what was MLB's logic in deciding that plays like the missed foul ball call in Wong's last AB should not be reviewable?

 

[fineyoungarm]

Mattingly has a shit bullpen and an ace who can't finish. Tough spot for a manager.

 
There is that. But he who ignores history is doomed to repeat it. Or some such bullshit. 

 

[jsinger121]

I hope the Dodgers enjoy paying 30 million to Kershaw who keeps coming up small in the postseason.

 

[MakMan44]

He threw 6 shut out innings. That's coming up short?

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Have you seen Matt Adams splits? Kershaw on short rest with Ebola is still a better option than Baez.

 

[fineyoungarm]

Mattingly thinking - "I won't mind going fishing. I like to go fishing."

 

[Al Zarilla]

I don't think much of Mattingly either, but what Dodger reliever do y'all propose that Mattingly should have brought in? They've all been horrible except Jansen, haven't they?

Gagnet 

 

[William Robertson]

Not sure it is "coming up small" to need relief in the 7th on short rest.

 

[patinorange]

He had no other choice than to let him face Adams. Can't pin that on Donny. Game one? That might be another story.

 

[jsinger121]

He threw 6 shut out innings. That's coming up short?

Yup....he blew Game 1 and now Game 4 is on him as well. He has pitched poorly his entire career in the postseason when it counts.

 

[loshjott]

Jansen, then? That was a Foulke in 2004 situation.

Exactly. Kershaw looks like a completey different pitcher when throwing from the stretch
