    At least we get 2 chances on the road. We split 1-2. Who knows.

    The runs were right there, it just didn't tumble. Our hitters will win it for us.

    Either way, best World Series I have seen!

    P.S.

    We’ll earn history on the road.

    Game 7 is going to be off the charts. All pitchers. Everything but the kitchen sink.

    I am already pumped up for this.

    Should I even watch the game or wait till the very end of the final out. I don't want to fall into depression.

    We got more hits than the dodgers but were 0 fur with RISP.

    We put them in scary situations all game. Just couldnt bring em home. I dont think that will be the case game 7.

    Tuve, bregz, and reddick both came up small in readymade situations.

    Sit reddick and start maybin.

    No way Hinch benches Reddick. He let Giles play two games in the world series.

    I think so , but I think it will have to be because of incredible pitching on our part . I think darvish will have a rebound game and look pretty good . He's too good to have two clunkers in a row .

    Reddick has to sit, or be pulled after one bad at bat. You’re basically batting pitchers in the 8 and 9 spots.

    Yeah I would be shocked at this point if Reddick is bench. Hinch is willing to go down with certain players I guess. He benched Giles ass but keeps trotting Reddick out there. Hope Reddick can come up big some type of way.

    Yeah he just has to. Hinch needs to get him outta there. Screw anyones feelings in a game 7. Maybin might rise given the opportunity. He got that leadoff hit in extras in game 2.

    It is really a toss-up, but clearly LA has the advantage. I would sub for Reddick. I would send Gregerson, Giles, and Harris home tonight. The big story line will be Darvish pitching as the "victim" of "racism." (good) Gurriel will be the villain. (evil). I can hear it now the whole night long.

    It makes sense to start Maybin because Darvish is not very difficult to steal on, plus he's a lefty. He can be platooned later for Reddick, but I don't see this happening. Either way this game is coming down to a lot of luck in clutch situations.
