Walker Buehler vs. Luis Severino, 5p.
Some fans aren't happy with the Dodgers' decision to go with a bullpen game in NLCS Game 2, as the team now plays three games in enemy territory at Citi Field. To be fair to the Dodgers and Dave Roberts, it wasn't necessarily the bullpen game in Game 2 that doomed us, it was a bad second inning by Landon Knack--after which time, the Dodgers outscored the Mets 3-1.
But it's a 1-1 series tie nonetheless, so the next step forward rests with Walker Buehler, 0-1 with a 10.80 ERA in the postseason this year (having lasted 5.0 IP in NLDS Game 3 against San Diego, yielding 6 ER including a HR in a nightmare second inning--what is it about the second innings here?!). Can Buehler get crafty, given he's no longer the overpowering pitcher of his youth?
And though the Dodgers were largely powerless against Sean Manaea in Game 2, Luis Severino has yielded 3 ER in each of his post-season starts this year (1-0 record, with 1-1 game outcomes), lasting six innings each time. If the Dodgers are going to have a chance in Game 3, they're going to need to sever Severino early. That means you, Shohei Ohtani!
Let's go!

Lux advances the runners. One down.
Would be a great time for Smith to wake up.
Good job, Slappy!

Sac fly makes it 2-0 us.
This ump is giving a wide strike zone against right handers.

Had a function tonight so I couldn’t comment. Thanks guys for keeping this thread active—and sorry about blogger (which seems really sensitive when we swear, which is often!).
Now I’m trying to remember my comments that were eaten. Don’t think there was anything that resembled swearing. Oh well.
