Betts crushes one 3-1 LA

[Mike in STL]

Payroll strikes again. Betts homer.

TBH though this series should already be over if not for the comes of errors that gave the Rays a win.

Snell cruises and gets yanked way too fast. This Fairbanks cat gives up the homer, can’t find the plate walking a guy, still out there.

This is smart baseball?

The look on Snell’s face tells you how he feels,

I can not fault the bullpen guys too much.  The way the series were set up earlier, with no off days, it was important to get more innings from the starters,  Taking starters out early creates the strain,  The check came due on TB’s relievers.

Double play gets TB out of the 8th.  Last chance for Tampa.

Urias blows away TB in the 9th

The Dodgers win the Series,

MVP??  Seager, Kershaw, Urias?

[You Play to Win the Game]

Hats off to the Dodgers. They deserve it. Finally got over the hump.

Mad respect for the Rays. They knocked out everyone's pre season Champs in the Yankees, then got the revenge most fans wanted in defeating Houston. They somehow managed to make this a great series, despite being over matched in every way.

[Mike in STL]

Well if two guys aren’t even going to take the bat off their shoulders...

Good for Kershaw. A lot of young talent on that team that deserve it.

Now move the Rays to Montreal.

And the Rich win again.  Now where have I heard that before, sigh.

Baseball delivered in these playoffs.  

 

Well played and exciting,  The Dodgers had too many stars for TB

Seager  the MVP

[BSLRoseKatz]

Turner getting corona while in the bubble is really odd, wonder if that's a false positive 

[You Play to Win the Game]

So what would've happened to tomorrow's game 7 had the Rays won? Looks like MLB got saved by the bell here from what would've been an insanely embarrassing situation.

[You Play to Win the Game]

Seager the MVP

Well deserved. Kinda surprised he's just the 8th player ever to win both the LCS and WS MVP's.

Well it's not a big deal.  After all it's only a piece of metal.

The Commissioner didn’t even know it is called The Commissioners Trophy.

Overmanaging by the stat geeks. That wasn't Cash's decision. I've grown to respect and like the analytics but this is an example of it going to far.
