    Fox's field mics deaden the crowd intentionally (so we can hear Joe Buck better?). It's been the same all postseason.

    Need to move Springer down the lineup like they did with Reddick.

    Springers at bats have been awful. And his body language and eyes as he comes to plate make it appear like he’s terrified. I love that guy. Hope he figures it out soon.

    I'm not worried at all. This is LA best game and it's not even good. Wait till we come back to Htown.

    If Springer comes up again with less than two outs and a man on base then Hinch should probably make him bunt.

    On the surface, it seems Springer's immaturity at the plate is a big factor.

    Springer swinging at balls out of the zone and taking pitches down the middle. He may be taking a Golden Sombrero tonight.

    Kershaw vs. Springer is just like Sale vs. Springer: a power lefty who can throw offspeed in or out.

    It's his Kryptonite.

    Kershaw is sharp, but Yuli, Marwin and Springer look lost out there.

    This is "Liriano gives up 9 runs and only records 1 out" weather in LA.

    I know...he's having trouble adjusting to the reliever role. ;)

    They’ve all been watching a lot of good pitches. Except correa and Altuve.

    Who is going to hit at the top of the order? Most of them are struggling.
