    Man, this sport called baseball is too stressful. I won't make it to 40 if I keep watching these games. Y'all (baseball fans) do this nearly 200 times a year?!??

    Couple of things

    1. Offense isn't dead
    2. Dodgers' bullpen isn't invincible
    3. Astros can win on the road despite what national media says.
    4. Dodgers HRs cannot possibly be sustainable. Can it?
    5. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HOME FIELD!

    With all the exciting plays, the best was Giles' pickoff of the 2nd base umpire! :oops::D

    I'm watching the news on fox 26...they are with fans in LA at the stadium.....that was great. They asked a guy what he thinks of the win, how he feels....and he just kept screaming into the mic. That asian guy was great.

    It was Devenski but yeah we got lucky there, who knew what wouldve happened if it went to center field. But also the Dodgers got lucky with the ball hitting off the CF's hat to save at least 1 run.

    I will eat crow for saying Springer should've been moved down. But the moment he drew that first walk, I knew he was locked in.

    by the way... been tryna tell yall bout that Fraudgers' bullpen. Also bunch of overperforming hitters on that team too. They got their "clutch" home runs but seriously, do people actually think their team is better? Just watch the damn series and stop with the media hype!!

    Talking heads keep giving the other team the nod because of bullpens. Do y'all realize the pens we have blown up this year? Chapman, Kimbrel, Jansen....untouchable! We got'em all in the playoffs!
