Mark Carlson with the word salad earlier. As he said “umpire discretion” is why Ohtani is allowed to milk how long he was taking, but he waffled on for two minutes.
Between Joe Davis and John Smoltz waffling on for minutes about pitching Ohtani as the closer (“but the Dodgers lose his bat if he gets removed from the game“) and Ken Rosenthal asking Dave Roberts what went into the decision to pitch Glasnow tonight with a potential Game 7 tomorrow, I might go ahead and mute Game 7.
“Dodgers maybe guilty of overthinking a bit”.
Joe Davis, John Smoltz and Ken Rosenthal just spent three minutes overthinking the horsefeathers out of the Dodgers getting to a Game 7 lol.
Three times it was looking dicey in 2016.
Needed a 4 run 9th inning to close the series against a rampaging Giants in Game 4, 2-1 down to the Dodgers (although we scorched them in 3 straight games) and of course 3-1 down in the World Series.
