Bellinger's little tap is hilarious.

Hasn't Glasnow now thrown 200 plus pitches over two games? Wow.

Tyler Glasnow on the Dodgers lineup: “They’re all still human. There are definitely some holes and some things you can do to get them out. But they are a very talented team.”

Verducci made a good point in saying that if Renfroe had been in motion, he might have distracted Kershaw, and Margot might well have been safe

I still can't believe that Glasnow is in the game and that he hasn't completely given it away yet.

I think Edwin Jackson is also the last player to appear for the Cleveland Spiders, and also the St. Louis Browns.

Edwin Jackson was also on the Brooklyn Bridgegrooms.

Roberts pulled Urias to early yesterday- exposing the shakiness of his bullpen. he's gonna keep Kershaw in too long in this one as a direct consequence, right?

Dodger Fan

10:08

Kershaw now has the career strikeout record for the playoffs.

Which has reduced its pressure more this evening ... Szymborski's back from no drinking ... or Rays bullpen from Glasnow getting 15 outs?

Dan Szymborski

I so don't want to see Kershaw out there too long. I am not rooting for anybody, just enjoying it all, but I would rather not see that again.

Kershaw feels like he finally hit a groove here

Craig

Has Kershaw traditionally done better against eventual playoff teams during the regular season than he has in the actual postseason?

Dan Szymborski

10:10

I would imagine so, but I haven't looked at this specifically.

Because his ERA is higher than you'd expect against the teams he actually faced.

Did statcast miss the Muncy dinger? Dying to know the exit velo

Dan Szymborski

10:12

They're always slightly behind, they just got into the 5th

A World Series MVP vote would be definitely interesting right now

Dodger Fan

10:13

We should do our WS MVP poll here

Dan Szymborski

Hang on!

Mike

For Nick: statcast doesn't miss dingers but certain balls trigger a second calculation to double check the results and those won't appear in the gamefeed until the game is over. Mlb statcast guys tend to tweet them out. They get rechecked because they produce unlikely seemingly results

With this summer’s trade deadline approaching I asked Mike Elias about the value of relievers. His answer included, “I think their impact is going to decide some of these races maybe a little bit more than normal.” It’s fair to say that applies to the World Series.

Randy Arozarena is an anagram for Radar Ran Ya Zone

Let’s say Kershaw puts up a full year next year somewhat in line with his last 3 (160-180 IP, at or just below 3.00 ERA), what does he next contract look like? 3-4 years 18-22 AAV? More?

Dan Szymborski

10:17

He'll get 4 years at solid money per

I think he can get 4/100

Though it's hard to see where MLB will be money-wise.

David Laurila

Max Muncy has a 1.192 OPS in the Seris.

Jim Kaat was the last active Washington Senator -- Willie Mays the last active New York Giant -- courtesy baseball almanac https://www.baseball-almanac.com/firsts/first11.shtml

Kaat was out-pitched by Koufax in Games 5 and 7 of the 1965 World Series.

In me, who’s the better MLB player. Luis Robert or Arozarena?

David Laurila

10:23

I'd go with Robert, but it's a good question.

Guest

You mean future hall of famer Jim Kaat

David Laurila

He has an argument.
