    Stuck listening to Braves announcers and they're convinced the umps have won us every game this series. Fucking unbearable.

    Heck of a win tonight given the unnecessary adversity caused by Roberts. The team is finally winning the close games and finding a way to come through late unlike in the first half. Go Brewers.

    If I could summarize this game using just six words (and by the way, this applies often to LAD games), it'd be...

    "Dodgers win despite Roberts' best efforts."

    Why was Scherzer taken out of the game?

    Not apologizing for my Roberts hatred.

    @MMoreno1015
    Max Scherzer says he came out tonight due to hamstring tightness. He felt it warming up for the first inning.

    He just said it was a tight hamstring. Destroys a good "Roberts is an idiot" narrative.

    Pretty damned good pitching on one leg against a good lineup.

    Never thought I would dread Taylor ABs. He's in a deep funk.

    great to be in first but...
    watching the highlights i see TWO Two strike pitches hit out against bazooka and vesia
    i think one was an oh 2 and the other a one 2
    i'm sorry but that shit has to be met w electrodes to the bawls to guarantee it doesn't happen again
    it happens all the time w us like not being able to bunt or hold on runners
    imagine how incredible this team would be if they actually cared about fundamentals

    How about Dave tough...makes a classic bonehead move...and immediately, the team pays for it. Oh...and that guy Max. You'll hear how ot all worked out, but really, if you're Max, you gotta be looking at him with a jaundiced brown or blue eye. I just wonder of Max will be pitching for SD or SF next year behind that...and trying to save
    Max's arm an inning less ( if that was the reason) and the multifaceted jeopardy behind it produced by doing it, was so bush league stupid, it's mind boggling.
    it will be all forgotten by the team's superb comeback.
    Little Lucky Davey.
    i just hope Max's memory is just as short.

    EDIT: Pretty unusual that Max said he had a dodgy hamstring.
    I wouldn't expect him to announce that until he couldn't walk.
    All this top shelf Dave pummeling down the drain...but you would think the team might mention that to Orel and Joe,so they could pass it on.
    Watching Brusdar doing his best Jonathan Broxton imitation was excruciating for fans after watching Max be totally magnificent in the epic Battle of the Max.
    Of course, disinformation is prevalent these days...they may have offered Max unspoken bonuses by fortifying the spin...
    just kidding
