Getting Jazz to end that inning felt huge. Win Expectancy calculator has the LAD at 97.2 percent. I should feel great. So, why am I still so nervous? Blake Treinen? Watch us sign him lol 😭

Getting Jazz to end that inning felt huge. Win Expectancy calculator has the LAD at 97.2 percent. I should feel great. So, why am I still so nervous? You need dead bodies bro 😂 Some thoughts: 1. Unlike last night, this one didn't end with overwhelming jublilation for us MFY haters. It was a relief just to see the LAD get out of the 9th inning jam with the flyball to CF. 2. I thought it was hilarious that the announcers touted Volpe's AB in the 9th as a Jeter moment. Then Volpe flailed haplessly. Maybe he was imitating the Captain Jetes of the '04 ALCS when the icon put up a .200/.333/.233 line. I seem to recall that the MFYs lost that series.😋 3. DR sounded reasonably optimistic in his post-game comments about Ohtani. Fingers crossed. 4. Soto has achieved an MFY level of douchdom, AFAIAC. His antics while he was circling the basis after his HR were drill worthy. Friedman should sign Mr. Martinez to a one-day contract and let him take care of business. 5. We can't ask for more than a 2-0 lead, but I need to see a dead body before I'm comfortable. Buehler pitches game 3 and he had a perfectly crap season of injury and poor performance issues. Game 4 will be a BP game. I'm worried that this series could turn around in a hurry. 6. FG now has the LAD with an 82.8 percent of winning the series. I don't think that includes any of the uncertainy around whether SO will play again.

This ump has been terrible on both sides lol, two missed strikes in the Verdugo AB then called strike 3 on a ball against Torres 😂

Want to see a replay on that. Wasn't sure if he went around or not, but certainly some questionable strikes that should make up for the blown call at the plate.

The K3 call to end that inning was hilarious. Thank you, Mr. Umpire.

I didn’t realize at first Mark Carlson called that strike vs Torres because of location and not because of a checked swing

The K3 call to end that inning was hilarious. Thank you, Mr. Umpire. The Yankees owe like a million more calls in the postseason. The fake Chuck Knoblock tag play. The fake Jeter homerun against the Orioles. There was another in 1999, too. I can't remember it.

I'll take it...but as soon as this series is over can we get robo umps? I'm glad it's at the expense of the Yankees. Now MLB will make SURE it's implemented on their poor child.

Why not go to Kopech to face the meat of the order!?

Ryan Braiser vs Soto/Judge/Stanton is a choice
Maybe they don’t trust Kopech to throw strikes up 4-0?

Why not go to Kopech to face the meat of the order!? Maybe saving him for the ninth with Treinen unavailable.

There’s no way Brasier doesn’t give up a bomb to Stanton. 2021 WC game was the hardest, longest hit ball I’ve ever seen that didn’t go out lol
