The Witch Treinen got it done.  Loved that guy during fantasy baseball days.

Poor at bat by Arozarena, who has been terrific, in eighth inning turned momentum back to LA.

Collect arms and guys who can go deep while being unselfish.  Evident this series.

pulling Snell was the play of the game

When I was a boy....

Remember when Luis Tiant threw like 165 pitchs in a complete game 4 win in '75 WS

we'll never see that again.

"They're going to regret that," I said when they pulled Snell.

It was a good game and a good series. I think the better team won.

And maybe Snell gives up as much or more. But I think he was pulled too early.

Question probably should be did Cash go to the right guy in the sixth, where you could say the save was to be.

Is there lingering strife between pitcher and club?  Should be interesting to see.

It was a 2020 season of unprecedented challenges for all involved -- right up until its final game, when the World Series champs' starting third baseman, Justin Turner, was pulled prior to the eighth inning after receiving the results of a positive COVID-19 test midgame.

Oh?

And then came back onto the field after the game for the celebrations, team photos, etc.

Bad move, bad look.

I suspect Mr. Turner is in for a well earned suspension, to say the least.

What did Manfred know and when did he know about the Justin Turner's smoking covid test?

I think he found out pre-game and that's when he started drinking.

As for a fine for Turner-for what, season's over, he was a civilian at that point.

And I'n being  little facetious.

If there is a breach in covid protocol, and there obviously was, its on the Dodgers and MLB.

why was Turner still in the stadium an not in a safe quarantine area?

MLB fulfilled the contract, delivered the product  and got paid, at that point, they could give a shit about player safety.

1 year suspension for Turner - or you are not near serious.
