Missed the start of the game, meaning I missed Freddie being a stud once again. Also missed the two most dumbf*** baseball "fans" in the world coming close to injuring Mookie. I'm assuming a lifetime ban is incoming at that park?

This whole situation is on Dave Roberts. Casparius clearly didn’t have it yet he sent him out in the second inning and was lucky that inning didn’t turn out disastrously. Hudson also didn’t have it and should have been pulled after Rizzo popped out but he wants to save high leverage guys for tomorrow. This series ends tonight if you throw your best at him. Now we’re possibly looking at facing Cole tomorrow and the series going back to LA. It’s not the philosophy the team should have.

Yeah I hate bullpen games in general, but I understand with all the injuries why they don't have a choice...but you need to step on their necks. The last thing you want to do is give a team any energy or momentum.

Roberts still thinks they are playing in the regular season

The calls aren't going the Dodger's way this game. Need quite the rally in the 9th. Either way, they are going to be tough to beat when the starter rotation kicks back up game 5+.

My hope is that the Yanks got it all out of their system tonight but this doesn’t look good. The Dodgers look bad. Their offense has been horrible the whole series outside of Freddie. The Dodgers had a game like this against the Mets in game 5 but they were also playing a lot better offensively. The Dodgers have had multiple players in their lineup suddenly turn to shit and Ohtani’s shoulder is clearly f***ed. This can become a reverse sweep easier than people think and I don’t think I can stand the insufferability of Yankee fans if they accomplish that or the embarrassment on our end either.
