Dodgers manager did the smartest move by going with the pitcher who was already rolling, versus bringing in the closer who always gets s ed
Coming back from a 3-1 deficit and also being behind in game 7 is encouraging. The Red Sox finally stopped choking when they came back from down 3-0 vs NYY. Then they stormed through the Cardinals in the WS. wouldnt be surprised if this Dodgers team did the same in this world series given how talented they are

Dodgers need to grab the early game. 3rd straight round playing in Arlington. I will comment thru the perspective of Los Angeles.
Right now I think Rays because they have the arms.
Reporting in. Let's hope the boys can finish the job for once. My expectations are tempered.
Dude, you don't break the cardinal rule of committing the second out at third base.
And why is that dip running on contact with no outs and the third baseman way off the bag anyways?
It's like the Braves were trying to give away an appearance in the World Series, FrostKing.
Valid concerns tbh. Nobody was more surprised than Dodgerfan to see Doc make the correct decision and leave in Urias in G7.
Rays have a lot of arms but I'm cautiously optimistic that the Dodger hitters have woken up and should produce in each game. Hopefully the lack of days since the LCS means they stay hot.
Doc/Kersh/Jensen should be good to combine for one chokejob or two but I like LA in 6 tbh.
Rays have an anemic offense at the best of times tbh. They were lucky the Astros pitching was as bad as it was, which won't be the case with the Doyers. Rays would get swept if the Doyers didn't choke as much as they do, but we know that isn't possible. Therefore I'm going with Rays in 6.
Does David Price still get a ring after pussying out?
Kershaw starting.
It's an L. lol
Kershaw is like watching a slow motion car wreck
Welp, if the Doyers' bats are this hot this will be a sweep.
Gotta give Kershaw props. He held them down.
It's game-to-game with them the majority of time. Looks like we'll get this one, but we got a very long 3 games to go. I've seen this movie more times than I count.
Should've had one more inning, too. Roberts nearly out thought himself again. I know Kershaw has a personal video vault of 7th inning horror movies, but in those instances, you can usually sense the wheels starting to come off in the prior innings. He looked in control throughout.
Ya made numerous blunders in the series. Caught leaving too early for an easy tag up in Game 5.
Mookie is the difference. Dodgers in 5
Rays have lost 4 of their last 5 games
I keep reading from sports jowrnalists how smart the Rays are.
I've seen 3 huge non fundamental plays in only 2 WS games so far.
Blake Snell more like Blake S -ed tbh
Dodgers 9 hole hitter > than most teams #2 hitters
Nice end of the game relief pitching by the Rays. Good game. Good sports viewing for a neutral like me.
A few stupid decisions by Roberts (bringing in May in a leverage spot), errors, and a untimely shifts were the difference. Dodgers' offense also went into homerun-or-nothing mode. Got them a few runs back, but you won't beat elite pitching down 3+ plus runs with dinger ball. You need to string hits together, put pressure on the pitchers with traffic, and then hopefully it will lead to deluge of runs. Every big post-season comeback I've ever seen always starts like that. Dink-and-dunk your way to the endzone.
Dump Roberts and get Cora in there, tbh.
Series doesn't begin til Dodgers blow a save situation. Looking like it might not happen at all. I overrated the Rays, thought they would beat us in the WS.
Yes glad i did not drop some coin on Charlie.
He was great in previous 3 playoff starts.
3 games 15 innings 1 earned run allowed.
Guess he was due for a bad game / props to Dog hitters.
