Hyun-Jin Ryu (regular season: 7-3, 1.97) vs Mike Foltynewiczczskemindhiemfbw (RS: 13-10, 2.85).
Surprise! The era of the Dodgers totally and completely leaning on Clayton Kershaw is over as Dave Roberts tabs Hyun-Jin Ryu for his first-ever (I think; too lazy to look it up) postseason Game 1 start.
Kershaw, 30, has seen his velocity dip precipitously this season and has had to rely on old-man wiles to get by. Meanwhile, Ryu, 31 — wait a goddamn minute. Ryu is older than Kershaw but we're acting like Kersh is hobbling to the old folks' home while Ryu just hatched from an egg?
What an odd, stressful season this has been.
Anyhoo, is this really the sixth straight year we've gone through the playoff wringer? Ouch. Are you ready to forget the massive heartbreak from 2017 and cheer with an unburdened heart? Me neither, but let's pretend!
Two Sons in the house (AC & myself) so be sure y'all GT folks keep it lively. Go Blue!
P.S.: If you believe this...
- Dodgers make a statement with Game 1 starter: Clayton Kershaw isn't the Guy anymore (Dylan Hernandez, LA Times)
...how do you explain this?
Hyun-Jin Ryu said he learned he was starting Game 1 from Clayton Kershaw.

Will be interesting to revisit this Ryu/Kershaw "controversy" after Game 2
No MLB Network here. Guess I'm following along online today only. This sucks!
No Kemp or CT3
Quad I don't have MLB Network either! MLB at bat radio or hit the bar.

Smoltzy??
Ryu with a nice first inning
Ryu gives up one hit in the top of the 1st but that is all.
Joc Pop!!!
WooWoo!!
two men on with no out and Dodgers cant score anymore runs in the first. fuckers.
ESPN app has the radio broadcast. Berman sucks, but I’ll deal with it for one game.
Muncy!!!
3 run bomb from Max Muncy! 4-0 Dodgers!
orale.
What the hell! MLB network only!? What are we, hockey now?
Nice, Fhqwhgads already pulled.
Ryu is dealing
Apparently, it's Bob Costas calling the game on MLB. Berman on ESPN...all of a sudden Charlie Steiner sounds a lot better.
the networks always play the same lame music going into commercial breaks in games at LA. why not play some real SoCal shit like Van Halen. good Van Halen and not Van Hagar.
gold glove my ass. pinchi Machado
Kiké with a bomb makes it 5-0!
Machado is a fucking disaster tonight
Nice job Fergie!!!
5-0, going to B8
Puig takes two bases on a wild pitch!
One out, Puig on third, Kiké up
nice D,you bums
Dodgers win. WooWoo
WIN
Dammit I wish I could have been there tonight
1-0 series lead! Sweet!
Btw, at this stage, the Ryu move is a success. He pitched well. And if Kershaw wins tomorrow, Roberts was right; and if he loses tomorrow, Roberts was still right.
Exactly Sax! The “controversy” was all created by people outside of the clubhouse.
spank @7:15 good Van Halen and not Van Hagar
Amen brother DLR is the only Halen!
