I'll never claim to be a baseball follower...but the MLB playoffs are good sports theater...

With Yankees-Twins being such a tragedy that it makes the Greek ones look like laughfests.

Dont even remember the 1 month Mikolas experiment.

Apparently the tomahawk chop is #canceled

[willeyeam]

Though if ATL fans are anything like yinzers that place will be chopping all game now regardless of any official chopping music or foam tomahawks

yoi

[Gaucho]

This is bad.

I thought they were only stopping it when one of the Cardinals relievers, who is Cherokee, is on the mound, per his request.

[DigitalGypsy66]

Did you hear that?

It was all of the bandwagon Barves fans putting their hats and shirts back in the closet.

[willeyeam]

Poor Kershaw

[dodint]

What a shitheel.

[willeyeam]

This was the saddest thing I've ever seen

[MrKennethTKangaroo]

Do I feel bad for Kershaw? Yes. But he needs to sack up

[dodint]

To be fair, he shouldn't be in that position in the first place. Starters start, relievers relieve. Stop being cute, managers.

[willeyeam]

To bad they didn't give us Lux for Vazquez

[willeyeam]

Was thinking of the list of ex buccos in the postseason discussed the other day and I'm surprised Zach Duke wasn't floating around on one of these rosters

[Ad@m]

Omg!!!! A grand slam HR in the top of the 10th for the Nats, to break a 3-3 tie game.

[dodint]

Kershaw: *fartnoise*
Kelly: "Hold my beer."

[shafnutz05]

Man....if you are Dave Roberts, and you are going to Kershaw in the 8th...what a pivotal moment. Clearly, he was figuring to himself that this is Clayton effing Kershaw, and there's no way he could possibly blow a postseason again. Woof.

On the other hand, Roberts' decision to start Walker Buehler in Game 1 was clearly a great move...that kid is damn good. But yeah...another wasted year for LA. Maeda should have been starting that inning, not Kershaw.

[dodint]

"Clayton Kershaw has allowed 10 HR in postseason games in which his team has faced elimination No other pitcher in MLB history has allowed more than 5 per @baseball_ref"

[Dickie Dunn]

Kershaw is a turd.

[Dickie Dunn]

Twins over Yankees
Astros over Rays
Braves over Cards
Dodgers over Nationals

Astros over Twins
Dodgers over Braves

Astros over Braves

This is going well.

To bad they didn't give us Lux for Vazquez

I know this is hindsight and everything, but this is sweet justice for all those LAD fans on twitter after the trade rumors were announced.

And of course it's just piling on for Pirates fans. LAD will most likely be shopping in the offseason for a Vazquez type reliever, but we don'ts gots one anymo
