    What worries me is that Dodgers had a mediocre game offensively with only 2 earned runs against Verlander before we panicked and conceited the game. Now, if the Dodgers all come out hot tomorrow, it may get out of hand quickly. In the end, this was a winnable game and we choked.

    Sports are set up to make most cities miserable, let's face it.

    Atlanta.

    Minneapolis.

    Houston.

    Charlotte.

    San Diego.

    Washington D.C.

    Phoenix.

    Detroit.

    Denver.


    If you're lucky, you scratch out one every other decade or so.

    Then, you have cities like Boston, New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Chicago. Embarrassment of riches.


    It's a recipe to be pretty miserable but for once every 15 or 20 years for a LOT of cities.


    We have taken this run as far as it can possibly go. I'm not going to lie and say I won't be disappointed if we lose tomorrow.

    But I'd much rather be playing in Game 7 of the World Series than in any other scenario I can imagine.

    I mean the Astros are beating themselves up and down this series. Bullpen giving up hits and runs like crazy. And the nights where the bullpen is able to hold the Dodgers to three runs, our offense chokes when runners get into scoring position and only manage to get one run off a solo home run...

    When he did that and then we didn't score at all, I knew we were losing. Unacceptable.

    Dude is like 2-50 in the post season, set the record for the most at bats without a hit in the post season... he's been a giant flaming pile of rhinoceros **** on offense and that's being generous

    Altuve and Correa are due. They’ve got to take it tomorrow.

    The big blow tonight was that walk. Hit pitch. McCuller can not walk three in a row again. Or even one.

    I don't believe its fabricated, you still have to hit the ball. The Dodgers did and Astros didn't. Remember Arizona beat the Yankees.
