Ok folks, I am going to step away. Enjoy the late game!

Just feels like it's gonna be hard to score enough runs
Chad Young

They needed 1-2 more hits tonight. They just didn't get them
Ben Clemens

Have a great night, Chad

Yup, I'm winding down as well, three hours is as much of me as anyone can stand!

Re 1998-2001: Don't you think that the design of the baseball was also a factor, Ben?  A few years post-strike, isn't it possible that MLB may have intentionally decided to alter the design of the ball so that it traveled further to increase interest?

I'll hang out until the end of this half inning and then call it a night

Cole has taken a load of crap the past 12 months here. Feel great for him. Thanks to you all for a great chat! Enjoy the late games for those of us who have to wake up at the crack of dawn.

What an eventful day of baseball so far
The first two games were both drama-packed, and this one was too (though mostly the first five innings of tense baseball)
10:40
The 2022 playoffs are shaping up to be a very good year
RTJ

Baseball has been very, very good
Hugh Duffy

It's been an interesting four games today
Ben Clemens
10:40
That's giving the Dogers/Padres game a lot of premature credit imo
But an interesting three!
With an option for four
Chamaco

Neither have been great this year, but should the Padres have gone with Manaea over Clevinger?
Ben Clemens
10:41
I would've, that's how I have them personally
I assume they considered it, though. It's not like it's a reputation-based move or anything
10:42
A counterpoint: the Dodgers have a ton of good righty hitters
A different Matt
10:45
Clevinger’s exaggerated windup and hairstyle always makes me think Weird Al is pitching.
Ben Clemens
10:45
Very excited for the movie
Yoshimitsu
10:45
The acoustics at Dodger Stadium hit different
Ben Clemens
10:45
Broadcasts there do a great job of integrating the organ and PA
10:46
Something about that cavern just works well
Bat

We have had a very promising start to this year's playoffs in terms of excitement!
Ben Clemens
10:46
Yeah, if it keeps up this pace I'll have a very good month
10:47
Alright, like Mike Clevinger, I am leaving before the conclusion of this inning.
Have a great night everyone, and thank you so much for hanging out with us tonight.
I know I speak for all four of us when I say this was super fun and we hope you'll come back for more.
