I didn't criticize JS for putting in Little in Seattle or pulling the guys in game  I've defender him all season.

Walking Ohtani in The 4th is perhaps the worst decision in the history of the World Series and that's not hyperbole. Gausman was absolutely f***ing cruising and had made him look like a fool in the first at-bat. It turned out to be the difference in the game. I can't even begin to fathom how outrageously stupid that decision was. When is he going to trust his f***ing pitchers? Gausman has been great for us for four f***ing years and they still don't trust him. I'll never get over how incredibly f***ing stupid that was, never.

Really? Gausman gave up several hard hit doubles in that inning. It was an easy decision to walk Ohtani and it took a really lucky Betts ground ball sneaking through the shift for them to score 2 of the runs.

I like reading the optimistic posts even after this terrible game on this forum. After having 2nd and 3rd none out in the 9th, and clutch Clement coming up and all they could do was poop the bed. My optimism has left the house, grabbed a shovel, dug a hole and buried itself. 

Hopefully, Mad Max can get out of the first without losing the game.

So the Dodgers have Ohtani, Glasnow, Snell going tomorrow?

yes but it shouldn't matter that much - it's all hands on deck and we've hit all their pitchers except for Yamamoto

Jays counter with Scherzer, Yesavage, Bieber and Bassit?

[Trainspotting]

Barger and Kirk should bat ahead of Varsho. Varsho was a total rally killer tonight.

A lot of people mad at Ernie on twitter but I'm still pissed at Varsho. I hope him and his square ass head arent here next season.

That is who varsho is. He'll strike out. But when he connects he hits it hard. Its a player type and add it to great defense, its very valuable. So, i hope he is here.

Hoffman is going to feature in this game as well.

Seriously f*** this stupid ass dodgers team. We should have won this game.

Not meant to be tonight BUT tomorrow is our Fate to claim Victory 

 

LFG !

[Jonn]

I would really like to know what Barger is thinking in that situation. Did he think that would drop or did he not know where the Outfielder was. He obviously wants to score on any hit but he should have recognized it would have been impossible to score on that ball based on where it was hit and how shallow Kike was.

I think they intentionally walk Springer or atleast pitched around him and would have brought Lukes up with the bases loaded.

[thatoneguy]

Yamamoto is the only pitcher of theirs that has stymied our non-half AAA lineup in this series.

[jmomcc]

I'm optimistic because we have simply been better and surely the dodgers can't be this lucky again. But its baseball.. anything can happen.

Thats gonna totally deflate this team for game 7. Book it! I know they shake things off well but I dunno.

How did Varsho kill the Blue Jays rally in the 9th? Did I miss something?

You must have missed his at bats tonight I take it.

[Gen.Disarray]

What an ending. I feel sick ugh

[BlueJaysFan12345]

I wish people would stop saying "We will win tomorrow and we will celebrate tomorrow" What if Blue Jays lose? You all are going to look like idiots if the Blue Jays lose tomorrow

He didn't have a great game at the plate but I fail to see how a single tough game means he shouldn't be on the team next year,  that's just a bunch of hyperbolic nonsense. I'd like to see Varsho and Barger swapped in the order for game 7 for sure though.

instincts, when the ball his hit he naturally started towards 3rd then froze as he saw Kike make the catch then tried to get back.  You have to know what to do BEFORE the pitch is thrown

How? It's called optimism vs. pessimism.

[Believe9293]

Had to go for a walk. It sucks but we still have one game tomorrow. I’m pretty sure the boys are more bummed out than I can imagine. 
all I can do now is give my support for tomorrow.

Varsho is getting a long-term deal in the offseason

You've said different versions of the same thing like 5 times now. Please go out and touch grass, or smoke some, either way.

It's the worst blunder in the history of the franchise, by a massive margin. It deserves to be talked about. That's what the forum is for, talking about baseball. Ignore it if you don't want to talk about it.

Right it's one thing where a team clearly gets beaten in every aspect, but this team probably deserves a better fate than taking the Dodgers to G7 in this series. They have been the better team.

[hanton]

base runners get doubled off often this just happened at a terrible time

Didn’t realize how shallow Kike was playing and how short the throw would be. At least thats my view

[SeranthonySantander]

Well even if Barger doesn't get doubled off, we are maybe 25% to tie it.  Then still gotta win it after that.  After Ernie had a pop up our odds to tie or win went out the window.

[CJ-Freeway]

I'm still shell shocked... wtf just happened.
