Joe Girardi out as Yankees manager

Kind of surprised, but not terribly disappointed....

 

[LACHAMP46]

meh, they have guaranteed contracts too...I think they are stronger up the middle with that 2B & SS....and I don't wanna see grey beard Utley shouldn't play again....


This is going 6 or 7 games

Bullpen was bound to blow one at sometime they'd been so solid this post season. Kenley's first ever post season blown save. It was very frustrating watching the strike zone Verlander got but our guys weren't. Even with that we still had a chance to win. Yu will rebound the team and take game 3 though.

Gotta have more than 2 hits through 9 innings to win a WS game. The bats were the real problem. Great pitching by the Stros but we gotta hit in our own park.

Ok, I'm starting to puke...Astros and the talking heads are milking the sympathy about Hurricane Harvey and connecting "Team of Destiny" BS to the Astros. Darvish, go ahead and get a perfect game tonight. Dodger hitters, go ahead and score 15 runs...

Team of destiny my ass, bunch of bandwagon fans. That park was empty 4 years ago and they actually drew a 0.0 rating for the whole season on their local tv deal.

I wonder if LACHAMP46 is tied up watching the Series, cuz he didn't react to an earlier GROB troll concerning him?ball:

He's "analyzing" Carson Wentz.

Oh look, the 2nd best DLineman in the NFL is out getting cheers at the game...:jerkoff:

 

[OldSchool]

I wonder if Fox remembered there were two teams playing tonight. This deep throat love fest with Houston makes you realize they aren't and haven't done the same for the Dodgers.

 

[Loyal]

TAKE IT DEEP, TAYLOR!

 

[Farr Be It]

Come on Bellinger. Choke job.

Roberts is making this game impossibly hard to watch.

Roberts is making this game impossibly hard to watch.

Yeah, I don't understand why he put Utley in to pinch hit. I guess he wanted to force their hand by putting a lefty in there. But anyone who watches these games knows Utley has much less a chance of getting a hit off a right or left handed pitcher than Forsythe off a righty. Their manager knew that too so he didn't bite. We got lucky with the wild pitch and got the run anyway.

I think Roberts has to consider starting Kershaw tomorrow night with one day less on rest if the Dodgers can't rally. Pitchers used to pitch on 3 days rest in the post season all the time. 4 days shouldn't be that difficult. He should be rested enough. Plus, he could pitch a few innings if they can make it to game 7 with one more day of rest than if he started game 5. .

It's so funny how excited Buck sounds when the Astro's do something. Yet the Dodgers do something and he could be a bored waitress reading you the daily specials.

No matter, @OldSchool Dodgers kicked butt in the ninth. I think we have the edge now.

Kershaw tomorrow, do they throw Verlander on short rest or keep to the rotation? That's the big question.

No. Alex Wood will pitch today.

Either way I like our chances. Now if a couple more bats can wake up. (Hello Puig)

Well, it worked out. Glad I'm not the one making those decisions.
