Vin Scully tweeted this was the biggest game ever between these two teams. Not sure I agree but it's top 3 probably.

The Bobby Thompson home run comes to mind .....

It definitely fits as biggest game between these two teams in the playoffs. What regular season games do you see as bigger?

Good call. Didn't think about that one.

Looks like at least 2 relievers will come in before Urias. I wonder if Roberts wants to wait until his team has the lead (or if the bullpen starts to falter) before he brings in Urias.

The hitless wonder has come to the plate.

Ugh another shit AB for Yaz

At least he didn't hit into a double play. I'll call that a positive outcome.

The Bobby Thompson game was part of a 3 game series to determine the pennant. And there was a similar one in 1962, Jim Davenport got a bases loaded walk to win that

Okay, a couple on and 1 out. Its looking potentially good here.

Giants were hitting .184 as a team this series coming into this game. Dodgers can pitch

Wonder if Urias is hurt .... this looks like a typical doggie wholestaff game so far ...

 

[SF11704]

Ok .... clean through 3 .... some runs .... any amount will do ...
