Preview
Things looked like 3 who turned the corner after Game 3. This brave man seemed to have only two reliable starting clocks and there is only so much work a bullpen can do in a seven-game series with no working days. The Dodgers got the offense obviously right and Clayton Kershaw was in line for Game 4.
Instead, the color did some pretty impressive work for Bray Wilson Brave when he recorded the offense in the sixth inning on Thursday. Now Bahadur is facing his first sentence since 1999.
The Dodgers went 43-17 in the regular season and then 5-0 in the first two rounds of the playoffs. Are they really NLCS? Going quietly in, will save for the fury of one-game?
Brave has been the best offense in Games 1, 2 and 4 while the Dodgers went completely bonkers in Game 3 and showed their potential. With the backs of the Dodgers against the wall, will they return to the game with a 3-like attack, or will the brave return and show more flick?
Bullpen will feature one of these. May hasn’t thrown more than 27 pitches in her five postseason outings and Brave is starting to reliever for a full bullpen game.
Forecast
The Dodgers are pretty good at going into five games. I’m not saying they’ll win the series because dealing with Max Fried and Ian Anderson in games 6 and 7 is a really tall order if it comes too far. I’m just saying that we should at least play Fried Vs. See you at Walker Buhler. The Dodgers will enhance this thing with a win.
