[Reck]

Sox aren’t meant to win this game. Freak out right there.

[Spurtacular]

Bunting with a righty on a force play at third was pretty stupid.

[Spurtacular]

the balls on Maeda. That could've been really bad.

He had nothing to lose and everything to gain.

[Robz4000]

Betts about to bat in a run or two, otherwise the Doyers finish this in the bottom of the inning imo.

[Reck]

Sox low key melting down

[Robz4000]

He had nothing to lose and everything to gain.

If Nunez ends up safe or Maeda misthrows it the Red Sox score.

[lefty20]

MVP gotta do MVP things here.

[Spurtacular]

Not that hard a throw to worry about misthrowing it.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Yes, Mookie, that's a swing. Go back to the dugout and eat a chicken or something.

[Reck]

Homecooking.

the umps want to get out of there. Pitch was way out and Betts wasn’t even close at swinging

[Robz4000]

Not that hard a throw to worry about misthrowing it.

It is when you have the runner that close, especially for the third baseman. Also need to consider the situation. Would rather have the out at first with runners on 2nd/3rd than the bases loaded with no outs.

Think he was called out on strikes. Check swing looked close as well doe.

[Robz4000]

Doyers taking it from here. This is gonna change the series; think it goes 7 now.

[Robz4000]

Holy , missed it by a foot.

[Millennial_Messiah]

so close

[HarlemHeat37]

Damn, that was cruel

then you walk betts I guess if you strikeout Leon

[Spurtacular]

Dodgers done that twice tonight; pretending they were walked.

[Robz4000]

Done trying to call it at this point. Just can't get a read on this game .

[Millennial_Messiah]

16th inning


& pussy-ass NFL games stay tied after 10 minutes

[c whata11]

realistically, when is this ending lol

You just do the motion; very fundamental play.

[Reck]

Lol Kinsler battling behind the pitcher. 2 free outs

[Robz4000]

You just do the motion; very fundamental play.

There's nothing fundamental about throwing to third on a bunt, especially with the game in the balance at that point and the runner at second coming in hot. A lot of things can go wrong. The fundamental play is to get the out at first.

Strangest playoff game I've ever watched. Even stranger than last season's 13-12 game 5. I've never seen offenses look this bad. And the pitching aside from Buehler hasn't necessarily been dominant. Porcello left a lot of meatballs. As have the Dodgers relievers.
