These slomo playoff elbows are GROSS. First CC now Kershaw

Jeff Sullivan

6:23

Never ever ever look at a pitcher elbow when he's pitching

hscer

6:24

it's the World Series and Kershaw is pitching like Kershaw. eat it, narratives

Jeff Sullivan

6:24

Well there's a horrible chase for Hernandez for the strikeout

Hunky Dory

6:24

In that drop-down pitch, did K miss his target, or did Barnes set up the glove to fool Reddick?

Jeff Sullivan

6:25

Probably missed. Kershaw doesn't have great command from that arm slot

He Hate Me

6:25

Keuchel K's Kiké

Dunkin' Donuts

6:25

Can Fangraphs get passes to MLB game?

Jeff Sullivan

6:25

Yes

Like, say, Eno right now

Seager with the first-pitch single on a fastball in off the plate

Eno Sarris

6:25

don't tell me that just happened.

Jeff Sullivan

6:26

I look forward to whatever you're talking about!

Eno Sarris

6:26

you guys are falling behind. at this rate I'll lose you.

Jeff Sullivan

6:26

Our difference has definitely grown larger than a minute

say hey

6:27

You going to any of these games, Jeff?

Eno could red herring chat by just typing "OMG" at random moments

Jeff Sullivan

6:27

No reason to pay for me to do that

Abe

6:27

Keuchel's arm is on the ground!! OMG!

Jeff Sullivan

6:28

Another double play! Three in five innings for LA

Keuchel has thrown 54 pitches. Kershaw just 57. It's been five frames for each

AdMan

6:28

Should we tell Eno what commercials he is missing?

Jeff Sullivan

6:29

Keuchel has also evened up the swinging-strike battle, at five

Matthew

6:29

The zone is huge tonight. Any proof that a big zone causes players to swing more in later at bats?

Jeff Sullivan

6:29

Limited but yes I think so

Eno Sarris

6:29

Have the Dodgers been as aggressive? Would like to know the swing rate. Seems like something I could check.

Jeff Sullivan

6:30

44% for the Dodgers

39% for the Astros

Eno Sarris

6:30

wow that was quick. And that's p low.

Jeff Sullivan

6:31

Lower than I thought it was going to be

Enlightening Round

6:31

Is Keuchel throwing a “sinker” or just have some natural drop?

Jeff Sullivan

6:31

I think it's a two-seamer with a surprising lack of horizontal tail but Eno might know more off the top of his head

Ryan

6:32

Who has a better chance of repeating his unprecedented 2014 success: Marwin Gonzalez or Chris Taylor?

Jeff Sullivan

6:32

Taylor

Keuchel with another five-pitch strikeout. He's actually been more helpful than his teammates in terms of making Kershaw work

K-Man

6:32

Ou are an MLB pitcher. What's your approach at the plate?

Eno Sarris

6:33

Try to go tank on every pitch like Bumgarner.

Jeff Sullivan

6:33

Darvish approach but from the far back corner

Lyle

6:33

What is the point of the large amount of towels wrapped around a pitching arm?

Jeff Sullivan

6:33

Makeshift way to keep an arm warm between innings? All I got
