MLB has to know that some of these games are going more than 3 hours...why cram them together like they do, especially with west coast games going on?

Because you'd have to start one of the games at 3:30, on the east coast to not have them overlap. And that will tank ratings.

The Schwarber error is extremely costly

Saw the replay of that. Brutal. That is the risk they take.

I would guess overlap means they get the people who tune in for the start of the second game, while keeping the people who want to see the end of the first. Not sure how many folks who would watch only watch one, but it'd still lead to the maximum primetime viewing numbers for the Nielsons.

More bullpen woes.

Good question. They are in the same situation they were last year, let’s see if they win three straight again

LA spent the entire season chasing SF, and then had to win a WC game and take out SF in a 5 game series. It feels like they cooked themselves getting to this point. Atlanta has had a much easier road to get here and seems to be peaking.

Trea Turner is slumping, Justin Turner is playing hurt, and Max Muncy dislocated his elbow

Tonight's umpire is rated one of the most hitter-friendly in the game, though I've seen a number of rather pitcher-friendly calls already.

And LA's pitching problems continue.

Fredrick having quite the series

Getting a man-crush on Chris Taylor

Dan Chris Taylor. He really wants a 4th year on his contract

Go SCHERZ, Trea, and Treinan!

Joe Kelly is out with a bicep injury, David Price is his replacement. That hurts LA.

I would not bet against Max in game 6. In fact I might bet on him.

a mid-series placement on the i l means that, if the Dodgers advance, Kelly cannot be put on the roster.

Yep. He’s done.

Sox using Schwarber's wheels to get some bases!

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #574:** October 22, 2021, 08:21:03 PM »

Looks like the ump is giving off the outside edge to the pitcher v righties. At least a basebal off
