i simply cannot believe that the kings gave up 98 points in three quarters and then doug christie decided to get keon ellis his first minutes of the night

lots of people will tell you that pitchers are simply too good nowadays. but they’ve forgotten about seranthony domΓ­nguez

also has anyone explained why nathan lukes bats second. he is clearly just like kind of okay sometimes, and vlad/bo/barger/kirk are all very good

can’t believe roberts didn’t use kershaw for lukes again

would be a great time for a mid-pa pitching change

alex call getting thrown out while faking like he was interested in going for a double would have been one of the greatest moments in baseball history. it would have become something announcers mention every time a hitter rounds first base aggressively

it’s on the list of article pitches for once the annual essay is done, certainly

if i had more time/had thought of it sooner, the game 162 bsb would have completely ignored the playoff races and instead investigated whether shane smith (chw vs wsh) would have had the least-noticed perfect game in history, with a full recounting of all other perfect games for comparison

one of the best parts of this game is that my wifi has been so terrible that i tend to only see 3-5 pitches every four minutes or so, with the rest spent on a loading screen. and i have not yet missed anything

rule 3 is critical to every good bsb ive written

i think you can tbh, particularly since smith is a lousy framer

why are they showing us people praying. is this broadcast directed by kershaw

idc kershaw will blow it in the next inning but the bases loaded walk wouldve been much more humiliating

i will never forgive nathan lukes for taking five straight pitches and then turning into prime julio rodriguez with four consecutive wild chases

takeaway from game one of the kings season: i liked the 13 minutes when keon ellis was on the floor

yeah i’m only half paying attention. but that was just commercials right, not as part of the broadcast?

Lack of gambling promos on these nbc/peacock games feels incredible; didn’t think it could be like this anymore
