So we lost game 1. We lost game 1 to the Gnats but came back to send them home didn't we? We'll beat those Braves and then we have two scores to settle in the world series: The Red Sox at least beat us fairly three years ago. Watch out for our two old friends, Kike and Alex. They both had big games today and both are red-hot. I saw much of the game including Kike's homer and Alex's double, so we better watch out for them both! However, the Houston Trash Can Bangers are another matter. All the Banger hitters were tipped off as to what pitch was coming next as we all know. WE also all know that we would've won that game and with our win the next game, the WS banner would've been ours. Regardless, that game 5 was a thriller!

Dodgers' Justin Turner: Sitting with stinger Rotowire 3 MINS AGO Turner is out of the lineup for Game 2 of the NLCS against Atlanta on Sunday due to a stinger on the right side of his neck, Tyler Kepner of The New York Times reports.
Turner has apparently been experiencing some difficultly turning his neck, so he'll be limited to pinch-hit duties off the bench for Game 2. Manager Dave Roberts said he expects the veteran third baseman to be back in the lineup for Game 3 on Tuesday, so it doesn't appear to be a serious concern. Chris Taylor will start at the hot corner in his absence Sunday.

Dr. Roberts making another ill advised diagnosis once again proving he know less about medicine than baseball - and that’s saying a LOT! I’m sure that four hour flight back to LA tonight will do WONDERS for a stiff neck. Taylor at third? Has he ever even played third? Do we not have any other options there? I know he’s played a bit at SS, but short isn’t third. Not exactly the best time for a “try out”. GO DODGERS!!!

Don't know what play the fans were watching. Lux stole that easy.

A few feet to the right & it would be 4-0 Dodgers.

Scherzer getting a very generous strike zone. There must be a boatload of players counting the days until umpires are replaced with computers.

So far Max has won his battle with Freddie Freeman. SO FAR.
