Really, a good game. Classic Dodger loss...they fall behind and then make a mad rush that just falls short. Having to pinch hit Puig was pivotal, as Puig is terrible in those situations. Turner is ice cold and Bellinger has become a waste of space...but in truth, it was the rather uncharacteristic fielding lapses that did them in. The Brewers REALLY wanted this game, letting Hader go so long, eliminating him from consideration tomorrow. I’m not really enameled of the Brewer manager’s strategy here...he burned his bullpen very early. I think that may come back to hurt him in a long series. He really angered his starter too, taking him out after two innings.

Big Pape agreeing with you, about the starter, right now.

Odds say the team that wins the first game of these series, go on to win this series. Something like, by 70% chance.

We shall see.

We need a thread for these Division playoff games, leading up to the WS.

Maybe I’ve missed it?
