Not sure how I feel about a manager getting himself ejected from a playoff game

Jeffress with another heart attack provoking 9th inning.............. That guy needs to get his mojo back! At least with a win out in LA, the series may make it back home but a clinch on the road would be frickin awesome!

Fuck Machado, what a dirty player! Between his interference slides and now the ankle drag to Jesus, I won't be surprised if he takes a heater to the ribs today. What a piece of shit!

We had every chance to win last night but our best players have gone silent. There is no way we will beat LA if the top of our order doesn't get on base... We should have swept LA if we were playing like we did to close out the season. Lets go Crew!

I agree, he is a complete fuck. Personally I would wish for something worse than a ball to the ribs though.

Jesus would have been justified knocking him out right there, IMO.

I stayed up until the 10th and then fell asleep

Does MLB really expect the east coast to watch an entire game that starts at 9:30pm?

Machado hit by pitch but off the elbow, not where I wanted it.

Series is coming to an end for, the run for the Brewers was fun but I think we are out of steam. Top of the order has not produced this series and we are down to one loss away from getting the boot. Not looking good!

Well I got last minute tickets to Game 7. Although the Brewers didn't pull it out it was still a blast. After the Machado bunt to get on first we still let him have it. The whole place was chanting "you still suck, you still suck". That place was Electric for the first 2 innings.

Not bad seats for free tickets. If anyone was watching the game, we were right where the ball boy tripped when he went to field the foul ball in the first couple innings.

Idk about you guys but I'm exhausted. Another Boston team having a long playoff run really has me beat. All the highs and lows, the drinking, the late night thrillers. Two decades of greatness really takes a toll on the human body. Sheesh

Glad you still had a good time, BreezyTL. Bright future ahead for you all.

With that said, I'm just hoping for a good world series to watch and don't really care which of these two teams win.

Dodgers look to have better pitching by a nose...it's a toss-up really for me.

LA in 7.

I'll go BoSox in 5.

Interested to see if they use JD Martinez at 2B when they play in LA

Mookie would play 2B not JD

He played there all during the minors

^ Didn't know that. I was reading somewhere that they were considering JD at 2B. Maybe they don't want to take away Mookie's glove in the OF?

Kershaw's elite days look gone...his velocity is so far down now. Puig has nothing between his ears.

I'm thinking it will be a sweep.

Boston keeps answering. Price stepping up this postseason. Time to warm up the temperature in LA.
