DODGERS Dodgers vs. Rays - WORLD SERIES

Genuinely feel awful going into the game today. I still just can't believe how we allow ourselves to blow games like this.

I'm very worried that we are now going to get the Kershaw who puts too much pressure on himself to be perfect.

I don't feel good about the game tonight, but I hope to everything I am wrong.

 

especially gnat fans i fucking hate it
was thinking of having to deal w the whole "its not a real championship" thing but that was the only thought i honestly had about truly winning it this year
i mean its always up to the players ultimately but you've got to put them in a position to do what they can do
kenley could have come in after treinen and baez or someone that's not cursed could have closed it
why does there have to be this insipid order w toomgis on top?
he plays everything by the numbers except that part of the game

 

buying everyone shots

This is turning into Astros series part deux. Hope there is a happier ending.

 

Last night's loss has brought me closer to you guys mentally, spiritually, physically, emotionally, and sexually than I ever thought possible. Maybe that was Dave's strategy? Go blue!

 

Amazing he publically stated that he "doesn't feel the need to name a closer", but when a WS game was on the line, he sure went with the guy named Kenley Jansen.
Btw, this is most likely old news to LA, but Roberts also admitted he mishandled Baez last night.
Thanks Dave...what a guy.

 

One of my few posts in a long time.
Not saying who is at fault for last nights debacle.
I will only say the names of people on the field or making decisions included:
Baez
Jenson
Roberts

Aren't they previously associated with major failures?

However we have a fresh face coming to the rescue unscarred by previous miscues.

A young phenom named Clayton Kershaw alias Deja Vu Clayton!

Please say it won't be so.

 

This is the game tonight. It kills me that we have said this SO many times before, but this is the game where Clayton needs to step up and pitch like the GOAT.

If he can dominate tonight, it genuinely flips the script on his post-season struggles. I think we all would be happy to forgive him for all the times he has let us down in the past. If not, it forever cements his legacy as a serial choker when the team needs him most. I don't know that I will ever look at him the same, regardless of all of his success in the regular season.

 

Pence can go fuck himself. He’s gone full gnat, embracing rooting against the Dodgers more than rooting for the gnats.

 

Some obscure and useless observations that will mean nothing regarding last night's cruel circus...BUT:
*Betts really is a wanker on much needed offense from him...hugely disappointing. Tired of hearing how he was
"so worth the money".
*There was actually no one in the lineup after Phillips ( the eventual Ray hero), as that spot could have only filled in by Perez on the bench, the only guy on the Ray bench...a RH hitter, isn't he ?
* When Keirmayer got the douchey little broken bat hit, he carried the bat handle that was left to first base. I remember as a kid,a coach I had told us it was against the rules to carry your bat, or any part of it, to a base. Or you're OUT if you do.
Does anyone know if that's still a legit rule ?
Anyone? Buehler? Roberts ?

 

Drop Betts to ninth. Oh yeah.

 

If we win tonight, we win the series. The Rays have no answer for Buehler, and we will 100% win a Game 7.

If we lose it’s not good, but Game 6 is not a repeat of Game 2. We will have May and/or Gonsolin at full rest this time.
