At home with your Ace and you botch it??? Didn’t even see Wheeler.
What a disaster

sgbernard · 10-07-2023, 07:39 PM

This is really frustrating game, good lord

brett06 · 10-07-2023, 07:44 PM

That was rough, Murphy knew it though.

If he knew it, why didn't he tell Snit not to challenge?

His reaction was everything. Why do you think he was mad?

Rabs · 10-07-2023, 07:53 PM

This is our chance.

A bat flying extremely close to my hand is going to make me instinctively pull back.

The hitting his mask against the pad doesn't mean he agreed with the call.

Idk I think it hit. That’s the reaction I’d have knowing I messed up. This has been an absolute poor showing for the offense. I feel we should be the LAST of all playoffs teams to be shut out. Pitching was very solid tonight. Bullpen looked fine strider was good. Not our night I guess!

whitmm · 10-07-2023, 08:01 PM

Why did it look like Ozzie wasn't busting it down the line?

Noles939913 · 10-07-2023, 08:04 PM

I knew Riley not tagging up would inevitably lead to a DP.

I think he was. Hit that ball hard and takes him longer from the right side to get to 1st. Just a great play defensively.

Not our night.

Rabs · 10-07-2023, 08:12 PM

Weren’t shut out all year at home and first playoff game we lay an egg. Ouch.

brett06 · 10-07-2023, 08:14 PM

Turner saved a possible big inning! Gnite all see y’all Monday! Offense will be MUCH better then!

whitmm · 10-07-2023, 08:16 PM

Let's change up the line up again. Let's continue just swing at everything. Let's continue to just stop doing everything they've done all season.

The playoff format is a joke. If you're going to give teams byes, reseed after the round.

That’s the bigger issue to me. Every other sport reseeds. Top seed should always play lowest seed.

Everyone would rather play Arizona than Philly. Dodgers get rewarded essentially.

I'm guessing the Dodgers are wishing they weren't playing Arizona right now

Yes....Same as last year. MLB needs to go back to ONE wildcard team and scrap this bye week BS. All season baseball is about timing and routine...and then you're gonna throw them off by giving them a week off and a short series?? Of course the "rested" teams are gonna struggle. Having your top seeds ousted year after year in the first games they play is not good for baseball. They need to fix this.

Watching the TBS post game show. Jimmy Rollins called it a disadvantage and says it needs to change

oplum29 · 10-08-2023, 12:33 AM

all those wins, all that offense, the league MVP....and then we lay a big fat goose egg.

awesome

That's good... but you know they won't do it. One more round of playoffs makes too much money.

And they get to pay the players less

NCWolf · 10-08-2023, 10:45 AM

Step 1: Do this.
Acuna
Albies
Riley
Olson
Ozuna
Rosario
D’Arnaud
Arcia
Harris

Step 2: Hit.
Step 3: At least act like you care about holding a runner
Step 4: Get the crowd engaged. And throw out the losers that trash the place.
