3 man MLB ping list
IN game 1, Mattingly had Kershaw at 66 pitches coming to the plate to bat in the 5th after 5 innings of work.
Up 6-2, he could have PINCH HIT and planned for game 4 on short rest.
Woulda been gutsy. But he stayed with Kershaw ... and stayed ... for 110 pitches, including 29 in that fateful 7th.
And still, Kershaw comes back on short rest.
How will it play out in the next 90 minutes?
So, will it be a Beltway World Series or an I-70 World Series?
Another inning too far for Kershaw.
