    Nah I have a feeling they want two of the biggest markets in Boston and LA.

    Go Braves! Disgusting that the Dodgers always buy out all the best players and build their superteams. Go Charlie Morton and Co.!

    On a side note, hats off to Kevin Gausman for putting out the fire and keeping the game close to give his team a chance. Wouldn't mind ponying up some cash to add him to the rotation, I actually wanted him at the 2020 deadline (can find old receipts if you wish). But yeah, Kapler's mistakes in the 9th were game-costing.

    The fact the announcers knew it before seeing the replay. Awful

    Morton and Fried might force it to 6, maybe 7 if Morton goes gawd-mode.

    We will see. Baseball playoffs are weird. I have feeling there will be another upset in the LCS. Just hoping its Braves over Dodgers.

    Either way they are looking at a revenge game.

    Astros vs Dodgers (2017) or Boston vs Dodgers (2018).

    Hopefully the Braves show something more this year and ruin their plans.

    Atlanta has a staff capable of elevating, even Anderson has that kind of game, but they do need to elevate.

    Great and deserved win by the dodgers. Mr 0-17 never had a chance anyways.

    That first base ump was probably smoking something.

    "Whoa...dude...he went around! Look at those tracers! Oh wow!"

    Both #1 seeds gone. These wild card teams ain't no joke.

    and of course these douchebag home plate umps don't help either.

    League to the Ump "You do know he didn't swing, right?"

    Ump "I saw what I saw"

    League "Good enough for me"

    You don't win many series scoring one run in an elimination game at home.
