Well, shit. Dodgers bats will need to come alive tonight.

Sucks to lose game 1 but I still have a pretty good feeling about the series.

I was not impressed by Globe Life Field. The exterior looks fine when looking at the large side that faces north with lots of glass windows. The exterior is also kind of ugly when viewed from either end with a huge angular sheet metal roof. The interior is fine I suppose but it seemed entirely generic. Not one single feature that stood out as being unique.

Concessions were terrible and beer selection was crappy. It seems that modern sports stadiums offer better food and drink options but the only things I saw tonight were basic concession stand food. I paid $12 for a brisket sandwich that looked like it belonged on a kids’ menu. Tried to follow that up with a personal pizza but they were out of those by the 5th inning. Tried to get a second Karbach IPA but they were out of those too. Hopefully this is a day 1 Covid problem and they’ll improve it for normal times.

Social distancing seemed mostly fine. There were the occasional oblivious assholes but most people seem to respect boundaries and the seats were adequately spaced.

Doesn't surprise me. Shit looks ugly as hell from the outside and the inside looked like a generic form of the ballpark in Houston. The old ballpark across the street has much more personality. But they wanted an inside stadium so this is what we have now. The shots around the stadium on tv and the people I knew who attended the game and posted pics, not impressed at all. I won't fully judge it until I go see it in person but I am not expecting much.

Ouch.

So the Dodgers have a chance.


Btw Kershaw is fake throwing in the BP right now on mlb network

I don't understand why they've moved May to the bullpen

Camargo replaced Duvall on the roster. 

[Sbbruin 21829]

Stuck at work and having to gamecast this shit.

[shadow_operative2.0 15947]

Freddie 2-run BOMB. 

[Sbbruin 21829]

Braves first hit of the game too

[Underdog 28568]

This Anderson kid is local so hope he keeps on doing well.  

[shadow_operative2.0 15947]

This is trending poorly for the Fighting Bruins.

6-0 in top 5, yikes. 

[Blotto 23488]

Yikes is right. Been buried with some customer issues and haven't even turned on the TV. Opened up ESPN to check the score and was not expecting that. But I also expected to see Kershaw in the boxscore.

Really trying so hard to never get excited about any of my Atlanta teams, even our fucking football team was blowing double digit leads with a handful of minutes left, but the one last year (mostly the same guys) and this year are so much more clutch than the Mike Minor team that won the NL-East in 2012 or whenever that couldn't score more than three runs a game.

Bro. It’s agonizing.

Yup, should have gone back to not posting.

[Sbbruin 21829]

Seager breathes just a tiny breath of life into the Dodgers

[clapclapclap 9000]

Last night's was better:

But still a sign of destiny.

 

[GSU&UT 1798]

That was a classic Snitker dipshit move where he thought he was getting cute. Tomlin is not fit to pitch against 3/4ths of the league.

[shadow_operative2.0 15947]

Ho lee fuk, Atl. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15947]

Easy game, never a doubt. 

[WBT 20561]

never a doubt

[Sbbruin 21829]

Fuck

[GSU&UT 1798]

JFC Snitker, just dipshit move and then Ozzie takes a dee-dee mega doo-doo on the field. Thank fucking god

[Blotto 23488]

what a shitshow. even with the win, the dodgers finally get a feel for hitting this staff. Completely different attitude heading into game 3 than if they would have been skunked 7-0.

agreed.

[BigOrange1 6433]

not getting ahead of myself as the dodgers are loaded, but this has been awesome thus far.

[Helobious 9450]

Lulz at the Dodgers every October.

Was worried we burned through all our bullpen arms yesterday, but still have Will Smith and Greene who didn’t pitch yesterday. We’ll need them with Wright and Wilson back to back.

And the Yankees every year since 2001 minus 2009.  I am a lifelong Yankee fan and you are the worst kind of Yankee fan.

Holy shit what a play to start it off

[Sbbruin 21829]

safe

[Sbbruin 21829]

Alright alright alright

[clapclapclap 9000]

Tough day in the life of Riley.  What a revolting development this is.

[shadow_operative2.0 15947]

Well, this one’s likely done. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15947]

Sheesh, that lineup change worked too. 

[Zepol87 9185]

Damn the bats are alive

[youdunnf'dup 2147]

I think that was the quick start the dodgers were looking for 

[Sbbruin 21829]

Well, perhaps this thing isn't over after all.

Nice, zepol's our good luck charm.  He just may not realize it.

Sitting with some braves buddies. They do not want me to come back. Also way more LA cholas than I expected.

Holy shit. 11 runs. Atlanta just go home and save the staff for tomorrow 

[Sbbruin 21829]

Hahahahahahahahahahaha.  The Braves might as well start throwing position players on the mound.
