Yeah, but the game was also on late and over early so not a ton to talk about.
It also added to, and quite possibly put a bow on, Kershaw's lengthy rep for sub-par (to put it nicely) post-season hurling.

Yup. But it's Sunday so MLB is running away from football.
The NL is also the FOX series and I suspect that FOX didn't want to compete with themselves (NFL on FOX opposite MLB on FS1)

NL is TBS. AL is Fox.

MLB app shows this game and Phils/Braves both on TBS. Who picks up the Dodgers game while PHI/ATL is still on?

TNT

Gracias

Diamondbacks - Dodgers

Outman may have just saved the Dodgers season with that catch, holy crap.

There were some empty seats at the first game, but TV just showed a TON of empty seats for this game.

Have to say I like Bob and Ron calling games , easy flow

Yeah I kinda do too. Is Costas a playoff regular? I cant remember who played in the baseball playoffs last year, let alone the announcers.

I thought TBS used to have Ernie Johnson as their lead play-by-play announcer for the playoffs, typically paired with Ron.

Great trivia question (degree of difficulty: impossible).

JD Martinez’s solo homer made him the 7th player to hit a postseason home run for 4 different franchises.

Met content = 1 but I’d have had trouble coming up most
of the other 6.

Don Baylor

I’m having trouble thinking of who the Met could be!

Beltran?

Was Sheffield, speaking of Met content in LA long enough to pop in for a postseason?

Sheffield’s a good guess: he played in the postseason/hit postseason homers with Miami, Atlanta, and the Yankees, but never with the Dodgers.

Beltran played in the postseason with 5 teams but only
homered for 3: Houston, Mets, and Cardinals.

The Met actually hit a homer with the Mets in the postseason.

All are wild-card era players.

Zeile?

Good guess, but he only made the postseason with 3 teams: Baltimore, Texas, and the Mets.

Also an excellent guess. He made the postseason with 5 teams (Baltimore, Angels, Boston, Oakland, and Minnesota) but only homered for 3.

How bout Travis d'Arnaud? I know he played briefly with the Rays and Dodgers, but I can't remember if he hit the postseason with both.
