Hey guys...remember that time in the playoffs when we had a 4-3 lead in the 8th inning of an elimination, with the Dodgers 5-6-7 hitters due-up, and Fredi left the best relief pitcher not only in baseball but also a historically great relief pitcher, sitting in the bullpen?

That's been our death knell this series: the inability to put hitters away with 2 strikes. I'm going to go to my grave wondering why Fedi Gonzalez, way back in 2013, kept the best relief pitcher in baseball waiting in the bullpen in an elimination game, because he thinks you have to follow...

Well, at least we almost won. I have no words to describe how much I hate the Dodgers. And someone remind me why, again, we didn't use Kimbrel this inning to face their 5-7 hitters instead of saving him for the bottom of the order?

Or beer...whichever's available.

Should be bases loaded with one out now.

Should be runners on 1st and 2nd with one out right now.

I think my heart may have literally just quit beating for about 10 seconds.

Just an awful AB by Heyward. Went golfing for a ball in the dirt in the opposite batter's box.

Jesus ump, how's he supposed to do anything if a pitch in the opposite batter's box is a strike?

Of course that **** hit finds its way through the infield.

Alright, who went in and lowered all of our hitter's power ratings by 10+ points? It isn't funny anymore.

We lead the NL in HR's, yet it's the Dodgers hitters who are golfing balls into the seats. Figures.

Must be nice to have a strikezone that stretches from batter's box to batter's box, and starts at the batter's shoe tops and extends up to his neck.

Ball nearly hits the dirt...McCann gets punched out. Seems legit.

Good news is that he only gave up one run. Bad news is the Dodgers are hitting the ball and hitting the ball hard. We're ****ed.

And why can't we have one hitter just half as hot as Hanley?

Game over. Series over. Freddy Garcia vs. Clayton Kershaw...could a playoff pitching match-up be any more lopsided?

I know he had about 3x as many innings on his arm going into the playoffs, but it's still a little bit frustrating to see other teams rookie (Wacha and Gray) pitch lights out in their first postseason start while our rookie got lit up.

We're making a pretty bad NL lineup look like the Tigers or Red Sox.

And the usual Capuano domination begins. Turn out the lights, this one's over.
