tie-game. two managers pull their starters. two relievers give up runs.

Would not want to be a water cooler within reach of Max Scherzer right now.

Hot Take: Playoff baseball is better than regular season baseball

Craig Edwards

6:38

Recency Bias

Roger

On a plus note for Nats writers, the headline writes itself: No Solace from Solis as Bullpen Surrenders Game

Craig Edwards

6:39

pun could be better.

Matt

What are your thoughts on Joe saying CC will start potential game 5? Does this mean Gray is available tonight? Is that his way of expecting a short start and bullpen game?

Craig Edwards

6:39

all hands on deck.

Bullpenning

Can't blame Dusty for his decision. If they lose he was going to get heat no matter what decision he made

Craig Edwards

6:40

this is definitely correct, although he could have PH for him, despite the no-no.

Matt

Hot take: most of the baseball that takes place in October is post season

Craig Edwards

6:41

looking into it.

Ernie keeps saying due without adding up and it is driving me nuts.

If Almora walked, would you have PH for Heyward?

Craig Edwards

6:41

no. still want his defense.

John Autin

6:41

Though maybe a *good* reliever there?

6:42

Which reliever do the Cubs trust right now besides Davis ... do you think Lackey makes an appearance?

Craig Edwards

6:42

i could see that. seems like a maddon move.

Been watching Dusty Baker manage since the 1990s, he is horrible. He been making horrible decisions his whole career. Letting Mark Gardner hit with the bases loaded down 2-0 against the Mets in 2000 is one of the stupidest moves ever in the history of baseball.

Craig Edwards

6:44

he must be great in the clubhouse.

Lackey, IMO is "break glass if needed". Extra inning long man. I'd expect Wilson before him.

Craig Edwards

6:44

we might find out.

As far as bad managers go, Dusty Baker isn't the worst.

Craig Edwards

6:44

high praise.

6:45

oh Heyward.

Show Hey O'Tawny

TOOTBLAN!

Craig Edwards

6:45

so what's the value of the run versus the value of that out?

HappyFunBall

6:45

Michael A Taylor is good at basebal

Zac

What the hell is Heyward thinking.

A RARE Heyward Baserunning mistake

Matt

6:47

Do you agree that it seems like Yanks have advantage tonight? That said, does momentum give them a potential edge in Game 5, or does it swing back to HOU for home/Keuchal?

Craig Edwards

6:48

better pitcher, plus at home, sure, though no on the momentum.

SignedEpsteinsMother

We got us a ballgame kids!

Taylor doing really well for the Nats this series.... both offensively and defensively.

Craig Edwards

6:48

who needs Adam Eaton, amirite?

6:49

so presumably Edwards here, Davis in the ninth.

Really nice play by Zobrist.

Guest

Is Edwards future closer material as much as that exists?

Craig Edwards

6:50

sure-if he can get his walks down and keep everything else the same.
