    LA is a really good baseball team. Always in the right spot, always making the right throws.
    Yep. They scored their first run because Turner’s throw home was on the wrong side of the plate (bad defense), and then they perfectly execute getting the lead runner out on the Stott bunt (great defense). Stuff like that wins these sort of games.

    Bunting sucks 
    Especially when the other teams bullpen stinks and they are faltering.  Just handed them an out for no reason.

    no sport is more frustrating when a team struggles than baseball.

    Handed them an out in the bottom of the 9th at that…when literally the last thing you want to do is make outs

    PLUS….Thomson is playing for a tie after his closer has thrown 26 pitches?

    The bunt is the least of their worries lol. They were extremely lucky to even be in that game. The biggest problem #1 is your 1-3 hitters are absolutely absent.

    Topper shit the bed - loser ball trying to tie it in the 9th when you have the winning run batting with no outs. Dammit.

    Is Bryce Harper still good? Castellanos had better AB's than him yesterday.

    He's never been the same player since the elbow injury.  

    the crazy part is i still think they have a chance to come back in this series. they just need to start hitting home runs.

    Couldn’t agree more on Thompson. One of the lamest decisions I’ve ever seen to bunt there.

    As for Harper, my friend who is a season ticket holder and was at the game last night, texted me when he came to the plate to say, “Hopefully Bryce strikes out here instead of grounding into a DP.” 

    My reply: “I was thinking the same thing.”

    Anyone know a cheap place to park for The Met? I usually take SEPTA to get there, but with all the problems their having figured it would be easier to drive. Plus I'm further from philly and it would take forever to get there if i rode SEPTA.

    LA is a really good baseball team. Always in the right spot, always making the right throws.
    Yeah, that Wheel play to get Castellanos at 3rd was a great play, and it was more difficult than it looked. Muncy charged and got that ball fast and then spun around and threw a perfect throw to Mookie Betts while he was moving his way to 3rd to apply the Tag. I do think Castellanos could've got a better jump then he did considering the LAD had the Wheel play on and no one was covering 2nd Base.

    It had to be absolutely perfect, and it was; really good baseball team.
