    I keep seeing that Roberts was outmanaged. What is he suppose to do, pull his starter during warm ups? Going to the pen early hasn't hurt the Dodgers....needing to go to the pen has hurt the Dodgers.

    "the bar is still open down there?"

    Papi - "don't close the bar... we about to be done here!"

    Score another win for the new CF area in MMP... FS1 post-game show is now a big papi tribute concert.

    I think it was more of Hinch not over managing. Roberts maneuvered well to keep the game close.

    It was on FS1. I’m sure they’ll replay the broadcast.

    Damn. That’s messed up if so.

    I like Gurriel a hell of a lot. Hope he learns from this.

    Stop making something out of a non-issue. Close the Gurriel thread down, and stop distracting us from the prize. We're two wins away from the mother****ing World Series, and no one can hear what they're saying in the dugout. Move on, nothing to see here

    The Dodgers will be feeling the pressure tomorrow; it is must win game for them. There are four more games in the series; the Dodgers have to win three of them. Not much margin for error.

    If the Texans beat the Seahawks on Sunday and the Astros close out the World Series on Sunday... LAWD.

    Exactly. I was just discussing this with my dad. They still have starters in McHugh and Musgrove that are definitely capable of the half-game save. I'm especially eager to see what McHugh has to bring. We may not have anywhere near what the Dodgers, Yankees, Nationals, etc. have in an official bullpen. But we have an excess of proven, capable, battle-hardened starters, and that's our secret weapon these playoffs.

    I'm so thrilled to see Peacock do what he did. More than any other pitcher on the staff, that workhorse kept this team glued together during all the injuries this season, and he just showed the world how he was able to do that. So great to see.

    Not if Dave Roberts has anything to say about it.

    No way they will suspend for that. He will get a fine. MLB will not tip a series on that.

    Not sure Hinch had any decisions to make except when to put in Peacock. Not tough to manage a guy who doesn't give up a hit.
