Davis is putting up a hell of a fight for a guy that rarely picks up a bat

To be fair he is using KB's bat

Davis may be a scary closer, but I have to admit he is better at the plate than Jon Jay (and probably also Jason Heyward).

They'd screw up the orders. One would take the drive-thru order and get overruled by the one behind the counter. All of this without looking at the screen.

That was a laser for Heyward. Almost got to the infield dirt. Wow. Where is Statcast?

For the record, I really like Jason Heyward a lot and want him to succeed other than on defense, but he just doesn't, and it's exasperating.

You bunt with a 1 run lead Regardless in that situation

Ump 1: “alright guys, got a Big Mac coming up, no pickles or onions, cheddar cheese instead of american”

Ump 2: “bull, he said he wanted pickles. Change the order right now”

Customer: “I ordered chicken mcnuggets”

Ump 2: “too bad. Here’s your Big Mac with pickles. Get the f*** outta here”

Why? Even if the guy at the plate can’t bunt?

If the Dodgers win the series, Chris Taylor has to be MVP

That's fine. I can't be mad with the fight till the end. Davis can't pitch tomorrow.

Wrap it up tomorrow LA
