Two things... Machado's hair is stupid as is the Brewers logo

That’s the game.

Dodger’s play is a Comedy of Errors.

Dodger’s play is a Comedy of Errors.

Dodgers are tight. Lots of bat banging and helmet slamming and frustration. They need to do some meditation before the next game (or go full on 2004 Red Sox and have a few shots of whiskey). I think they're the better team but they are just not playing like they are. Where's the energy and the fun and the cockiness?

And when did my fav Dave Roberts get so old? He looks rough, like he's aged 10 years in the past 2. Is he having health problems?

Thanks to Bregman for trolling Eovaldi with those home run clips on Instagram. That worked out well for the Sox when Judge decided to taunt them after game 3. Looking forward to the early game tonight! Will be nice to watch while not half asleep.

They're a bunch bums.

You're right about Roberts. When he came here he looked as if he just got out of grad school ... fresh, ready to take on baseballdom ... a young prince. Last night he looked beat up, dragging his ass from another long day at a boring job. He should have shaken up the non-productive lineup earlier ... he should have realized you can't play long-ball with Santa Ana winds coming in from the outfield. But nobody was hitting Chacin ... the bats were quiet ... the stadium got quiet ... the only life in Los Angeles last night flew in from Milwaukee.

Good articles. Hoping they turn it around. Going to wear my Dodgers hat today to reverse their curse.

11 years ago he was the fastest man in baseball - stealing 2nd in the ALCS when every single person in the world knew he was going to steal. He was a super young looking 32 and now he's a very old looking 46. I just had to google his age because I would have guessed mid-late 50's from looking at him on tv last night but I knew he couldn't be that old because 2004 was only 11 years ago!

Just made curious by the headline. Is it baseball related? I'll look it up.
