    Alex Wood who is clearly injured to everyone with two eyes goes out and pitches the game of his life with average stuff while our fucking "golden boy" can't even get us a win in a game where our offense scores 12 runs. I am so sick.

    last I checked only one is considered sure fire hall of fame and apparently the best dodger pitcher ever.

    sorry. 4 run lead and then 3 run lead? best pitcher in baseball? 30 mil a year?yeah it's all on him. he's the reason this turned into a wackadoo game in the first place.

    The ump was fucking garbage and took the bat out of our hands on a few occasions but our shit pitchers couldn’t take advantage of it. Sad thing is I thought these umps were supposed to be the best of the best. Don’t seem that way to me

    I hate how MLB decided to juice the balls for the WS to help the best offense in baseball.

    There is a part of me that believes that pitchers like MadBum are thinking "I'm gonna murder this batter" during a tough playoff situation.

    Kershaw on the other hand must be thinking "Geez, what kinda flowers should I bring to my sister-in-law's wedding......tulips? Oh shit, I gotta throw a slider here....."

    I'm just not sure what happens to his thought patterns out there.

    The TEAM got you to the last thing you needed on your resume...and you gacked it up.

    I have no words.

    At least Kershaw isn’t pitching game 6. Tired of watching him pitch game 6 elimination games. Maybe Hill will fuck shit up or our offense can put up a crooked number again.

    Verlander....who is 100x the pitcher Kershaw can dream of being will be a tall task in game 6. He's been dreaming of this moment his entire life.

    He'll be tough...the one pitcher I worried about most if we did not win this game.

    But if we do get past him somehow, I think Darvish at home has a chance.

    Right now, we're talking about mere survival.

    Just do it. I don't like how the pitching staff is set up and I'm heartbroken that we lost both "classic" games at the hands of Kershaw and Kenley. But win game 6.

    Since 1985, teams going home down 3-2 win series half the time, 14 of 28. When they win Game Six, they're 14-2 in Game Seven. #dodgers

    Only if those C names are white guy names.
    And you are a white guy.
    Not a race thing, its just a sports thing but generally latin players are better at not choking because the 'pressure' of a baseball game is not that big of a deal compared to what they have already had to deal with in their life.

    I blame Kershaw for giving up giant leads twice.
    I blame Roberts for taking Watson out when he looked great and only threw 12 pitches in favor of Morrow. Then Morrow would've easily threw up the lead after that in a later inning so whatever, it probably didn't matter anyway.
    I blame Jansen for choking yet again. 2 times in one series. I would never have guessed it. 6 out save or not.
    I blame the terrible umpire behind the dish. Miller is a moron and that was the most inconsistent Strike zone I've ever seen.

    What a terrible game to watch with this beer league softball type of hitting. I guess most people like that shit. It isn't baseball to me.

    We can win this series, but I honestly have come to the realization that none of this is worth it.
    I don't like the person I am when I'm caught up in these game
    Plus, it isn't even entertaining anymore with the way the league has changed the game
    I feel like I will puke if I see another home run. Even if a Dodger hits it. It's just not enjoyable
    I hope we win and I can see a "2017" banner next to "1988". I will be satisfied for a long time and perhaps move on.
