GDT: NLCS Game 3 Braves vs Dodgers

[Tapate50]

Something is up. They are crushing everything.

Everyone check the trash cans

I really do not like Cody Bellinger. He just looks like an arrogant ****.

He doesn't bother me like muncy. I wish every ball hit his way hits him in the groin. Pray for me

What's up is the Dodgers hitters are elite, and they crushed some Braves pitching.

 

[CrazyTrain]

I'm dead serious about saying Dayton is hurt, and replacing him with newcomb. Start newcomb tomorrow (assuming he's been throwing). Newcomb has had good luck vs dodgers. He isn't a good option, but Wilson sure as hell isnt

Dead serious. Think Smoltz still has it?

If Betts was out the 1st inning ends with 0 runs scored and Smith leading off the 2nd.

Crazy how that snowballed.

Now you're getting it.

 

[Slippyjms]

I think we have to consider getting TDA out of the game sooner rather than later. Rest our best arms and come back and try again tomorrow.

 

[CrazyTrain]

Rules interpretation help: Turner obviously reached his foot outside the batters box to interfere with that pitch that was ruled a HBP. IIRC once upon a time that was ruled as interference and the batter is out. Anyone else recall anything similar?

It was clear and should've been an out. I have no idea why this wasn't a bigger deal in the moment. Snit seemed OK with the explanation.

He should have lost his damn mind.

Would not be surprised that the team crying the most about the Astros cheating protesteth a bit too much.

 

[Slippyjms]

Not to overreact to two...bad innings, but right now my expectation is that the Dodgers win the next three games, and we have to win two in a row started by Fried and Anderson. Which is not a catastrophic place to be, I suppose.

I would think we’d have the SP advantage in game 7 as well.

 

[CrazyTrain]

Now you're getting it.

I'm willing to accept that call. The "review" of that POS Turner's shenanigans is unfathomably unacceptable.

This would be the wise move. Gear up for Game 4-7 now.

The Braves won 7 games in a row, and got annihilated by the Dodgers in the 8th game.

It happens, yet folks are going to whine and cry and blame the umps and write about how much they hate the opposing players...like a bunch of whiny toddlers.

My guess is the umpire said New York couldn’t make a judgement call and given he didn’t see it hit him he also didn’t see it.

I mean, it’s been widely reported that they were in on it too.

 

[Dalyn]

What a disaster. This is the kind of start that can ruin a kid. Wright looked like someone had murdered his whole family.

That's ****ing unacceptable. Plain and simple.

For me, it means the fix is in. There's no other explanation.

 

[Tapate50]

Wait wait wait.... this is TRUMPS fault.

 

[Enscheff]

I mean, it’s been widely reported that they were in on it too.

LOL so now the Dodgers are cheating?

The Braves got whooped, as sometimes happens in baseball.

Must we whine and complain like my 3 year old?

 

[zbhargrove]

I don't blame this piss poor performance on the umps... but the Turner call is just frustrating.

 

[CrazyTrain]

What a disaster. This is the kind of start that can ruin a kid. Wright looked like someone had murdered his whole family.

Has he called them?

It's certainly possible after that display.

Yea, as I've said—I think he was safe. More just giving Enscheff a raz.
