Clayton Kershaw (18-4, 2.31) vs. Jose Quintana (11-11, 4.15)
Me, in the Game 4 Thread:
"A Game 4 with no need to run a short-rested Kershaw out there? How can this be? Everything about this postseason has been weird, but weird is working. Weird is winning. Weird is WONDERFUL."
WELP. Don't listen to me. Weird is dumb and bad. The Dodgers threw roughly half a lineup out there last night, and lost. So, now it's "End The Cubs: Take 2", and Kershaw will indeed be called upon. He's made us nervous this postseason, but has been kinda sorta OK. He needs to be better than just OK tonight. Not giving up a bunch of dingers to the Cubs would be a GREAT start.
Also, Curtis Granderson better not come in, even as a pinch hit decoy. That guy needs to sit and think about what he hasn't done.
We still believe in #ThisTeam and we want this one bad. The World Series is right through that door...KICK IT DOWN.
LET'S GO DODGERS!

Been loving the Simpsons theme for the game threads.
This lineup looks significantly better than last night's.
I'm calling my shot. Kiké goes deep tonight.
Bold call, Quad
I’m not giving away my shot...but okay, I pick Barnes.
Feeling a lot better about tonight's lineup.

I like it when they show the Cubs fans all sad and brokenhearted. Yeah, i know i'm a bitch.
And look, I'm not counting this one as a win yet...
...but I don't think I can take three more hours of sad Cubs fans shots.
Oh, wait a second: Cubs fans often leave early.
@karen: on the same wavelength!
Karen, you're not a bitch...you're a hero!
James Loney reference!
The last postseason GS for the Dodgers...was also in this park!
SIDDOWN BENZO
Nice catch, CT3
Taylor with a great catch to end the 3rd!

2008 NLDS Game 1: James Loney GS (SoSG PGT)
Oyster Pubes in the e-surance ad. Yucch.
Some fine moments in SoSG comments (2008 NLDS Game 1 GT):
Steve Sax said...
oh no
Well, at least Loney can't GIDP here. Let's see if he's smart enough to take some pitches, likely earning a walk....

Dampster? Not sure how that typo occurred...

Erin said...
Seven f*cking walks. Now I'm begging James Loney.
I'll take a walk over an apple pie any day of the week.
10/01/2008 5:13 PM
Erin said...
Dempster walks three people in this inning. Naturally, Loney swings at the first pitch.
Jesus. And the second.

Kepp 'em coming, boys!
CT3 leadoff single to start out T4
Forsythe joins the party! 9-0!
Hope Puig is okay on that slide, but now it's 9-0 LA
And Contreras PB lets Forsythe take third.
Love the blast from the past, Sax!
Defending World Champs are coming undone.
9-0 LA, Dodgers have scored in every inning. Mid-4
TBS announcers saying Puig is banged up. Eck is also not impressed with Puig's headfirst slide to home, scoring the ninth run.
Cubs fans going nuts on the Bryant HR. 9-1, one out in the bottom of the fourth.
9-1 now. Clayton still not immune to the longball
Shift beats Rizzo. Two out
Contreras, two-out single to right.
Third out.
9-1 through 4 full.
9-1 thru 5!!!
ARBY'S VENISON SANDWICH, OCTOBER 21 SATURDAY!!!
9-1 thru 6!!!!
Barnes btw, is 0-for-3 this game.
Quad's prediction > Sax's prediction
0-for-4 now, as Barnes Ks looking
9-1 thru 7!!!!!
2008. You’re such a sweet distant memory.
At a wine bar. Ready to toast the pennant
Top 8, still 9-1
CUlberson with a leadoff...TRIPLE
I hope it has not gone unnoticed what a well behaved little princess I've been of late not taking Maeda's name in vain. No promises though for 2018.
Are they gonna kiss or what
However excited I am it pales in comparison to all y’all.
So mazol tov to the sons and all the sosg-maniacs our there.
We strand Culberson at third with three ground balls. But I won't complain.
Stranded Culby. But still up 9-1.
Exactly Sax.
Enjoy the wine bar, DD!
Karen, Maeda is a different pitcher as a reliever. Throws a lot harder. We're going to need him in the WS OKAY CAN I SAY THAT NOW
9-1 thru 8!!!!!!
*streaks*
You can say it....and I agree we are going to need him to kill righties.
Puig gets his second hit in the ninth with one out.
Kike wiht his third HR. This is SILLY
KIKÉ THREE HR
11-1 LA
BARNES WITH THE BASE HIT I PREDICTED (sort of)
There's Barnes' hit, happy Sax?
We need to get Kiké's dad to come to every game of the World Series! Have yourself a night kid!
HERE WE GO TO THE BOTTOM OF THE NINTH!!
ENJOY MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS!!!
TBS homers: "It's impressive how many fans are still here at Wrigley Field." Yeah, right.
