They may have two more chances, but they only need to win one (1) game to close out the series and take home the NL pennant.

C'mon Dodgers...you've done it before, you can do it again. ::pray::

Very well, jerryd...Game On...Let the rivalry commence!! ::smack:: ::poke:: ::handshake::

But I must warn you: I stopped caring after LA eliminated SF in the NL Wild Card game, so I'm only rooting for the Dodgers (normally my hated rivals) because I wouldn't want my team (SF) to have lost to any but the very best. Also, I only like CA teams, soooo...my choices are pretty limited at this point :lol: .

I am "a true fan", jerryd... of Baseball...the sport...not of any particular team(s). And, to be honest, I generally tend to root for the underdogs regardless of what uniform they wear or who their opponent is.

Even the players themselves only have "temporary allegiance" to the particular team they are playing for at any given moment due to being traded and shuffled around from team to team all the time.

FWIW: Gordo (my office gecko) does appear to have a distinct fondness for the Dodgers. :roll:

Max Sherzer say he can't go tonight for the Dodgers. I'd say this adds a bit of intrigue for tonights game. Since the Astros won out last night tonights game moves to 8:00 pm. GO BRAVES! ::ds::

Just an idle thought while basking in the Braves win over the cheaters - how long will it be before the cancel culture PC crowd force Atlanta to change their name like the Cleveland Indians, er, Guardians did?

Cleveland Guardians roller derby team sues Cleveland Guardians baseball team to block name change. ::rotflol:: ::rotflol:: ::clapping::

Does anybody even watch roller derby these days? Years ago, I watched it on TV but I haven't seen a game advertised in years. ::shrug::
