In this NLDS, the Dodgers and Giants have played three games.

The Dodgers have outscored the Giants 9-7.

The Dodgers have outhit the Giants 21-16.

The Dodgers are hitting .208 while the Giants are hitting .176.

The Dodgers have a .252 OB% while the Giants have a .208 OB%.

The Giants have outhomered the Dodgers 4 to 1.

The Dodgers ERA is .2.06 while the Giants is 3.00.

The Giants have scored in every game while the Dodgers have scored in one.

In case you don’t know, you can’t win if you don’t score.

The Giants have won two games. The Dodgers have won one game.

The Dodgers got exactly what they needed from Max Scherzer.

Max gave it all. The hitters gave nothing.

Pujols and Souza got 3 of the 5 hits from the 7th spot!

Betts, J-Turner, T-Turner, Seager, Pollock, and Taylor – all All-Stars in their career were 1-for 22.

To say that the Dodgers hitters were pathetic would be doing a disservice to the word “pathetic.” This is way beyond pathetic. Hurry home, boys, and read your press clipping and collect your paychecks. If I were Max, I would challenge Betts, J-Turner, T-Turner, Seager, Pollock, and Taylor to a fistfight in the locker room. One against six. I got Max!

Now, it’s win the next two or go home. After what I have seen in the past three games, they will go home with their pathetic tails between their legs.

    Brandon Crawford looks like he’s been hanging out with Barry Bonds, just saying.

    What’s up with kapler’s shoes? They look like orange slippers!

    Not a fan of pulling Buehler. Let’s hope it works out.

  4. NorcaldodgerfanOctober 13, 2021

    This kind of feels like a typical Giant “pull a rabbit out of the hat” type game.

    Dodgers have to slam the door right now and score some runs. Let’s go!

    After Seager 3rd out on the bottom of the 5th, what would have happen if the umprie would have found something iligal on the pitchers glove?

  6. NorcaldodgerfanOctober 13, 2021

    Bazooka has looked very good in the post season. Pounding the strike zone with terrific movement.

  7. DavidOctober 13, 2021

    Feast or famine? What will it be for game 5? At least they got a good look at Logan Webb recently. They should be able to make adjustments. And I have every reason to feel confident sbout Julio Urias. He is a big-game pitcher. The big question is whether the bats will show up.

Dodgers Food Trailer

I did this interview a couple of weeks ago with Chef Mike, who runs the Dodgers Food Trailer for the Great Lakes Loons. They are there for every home and road regular season and playoff game. They prepare three meals a day for approximately 50 people (players and coaches). Since games end late most evenings, they do not prepare breakfast. Many of their hotels have a complimentary breakfast anyway. However,…

Meet LAD 2026 Draft Picks 1-12

3 picks were High School players (2 SS and 1 OF). There was a college OF, college catcher, college SS, and 10 college pitchers. Of all the talk for a need for a catcher, the only catcher the Dodgers selected was Luke Bard, son of LAD bullpen coach Josh Bard. Bard was a 4th year senior from Houston Christian University. He is not a prospect, so the Dodgers are still…

Interview with Paul Beachy – Team Bus Driver For The Great Lakes Loons (LA Dodgers Minor League Team)

It’s been a few days since I did this interview. We have evidently been working my son-in-law (the video guy) like a rented mule at US Water Systems. However, I am taking him to London with me in a few days, so maybe Watford will buy him a pint as a tip, but he’s a dang Red Sox fan, so there is that! I thought that it would be interesting…

Thanks for Your Service: Chris Taylor

I was going to do this post when Chris announced he was retiring, then he changed his mind, but since the chances of him ever playing for the Dodgers again are slim and non-existent, I will go ahead with this post. He unretired, went on the IL, then decided to call it quits on May 24th. Taylor was born in Virginia Beach VA on August 29th, 1990. He attended Great…
