Easily.

i like Howie and Dave Roberts. Glad Howie isn't playing 

[CaliAngel]

The intensity of fan participation between LA and Chicago have been VASTLY different. In Chicago they are reacting to EVERY pitch. 

Reminds me of game 6 and 7 of the Angels World Series where the crowd definitely had some impact on the game for the home team. As a visiting team you can't help but be a little intimidated when 40-50K people are cheering against you.

I know Toles simply took his eye off the ball, but it seems maybe it impacted him too. 

[Lou]

need to get another run here

[Lou]

Kershaw overthrowing 

too much rest : )

[CaliAngel]

Wow Kershaw really buckled down there. Toles better stay out of his line of sight, if I were Clayton I'd wanna strangle him lol.

30 pitches in the 1st inning for Kershiago 

[Jason]

This is very bad for the Dodgers

lol talk about not knowing what someone was thinking...

i was responding to your "Really", as in: "No, not really. I was joking, too"

i wasn't saying I didn't believe that you were joking.

Picky, picky...

i hope this postseason has illustrated to everyone that bad baserunning is an MLB thing, not just an Angels thing 

[CaliAngel]

Sure, say bad baserunning is an MLB thing. But mind-numbingly atrocious baserunning is most definitely an Angels thing.

Kershaw has been used quite a bit this post season. I wonder if he's running out of gas? 

[mulwin444]

Fowler was clutch right there 

[Richard]

He has no feel for his curve. He's pretty much trying to paint with his fastball and the Cubs are feasting.

I think he was just amped up with all the nerves. The thing about Kershaw is he gets stronger as the game goes on and he calms down a bit. Which is why it was very important for the Cubbies to jump on him early. 

End of 2, 3-0 Cubbies. 

If I heard correctly, Fowler is now 20-41 lifetime against Kershaw. Crazy. And why he would even think of going to second on that play is beyond me.

he had 6 days off before the playoffs started and had pitched 19.1 innings going into today.  that makes it under 20 ip in 3 weeks. 

so, no, I don't think it's fatigue 

[mulwin444]

Maddon taught Scioscia everything he knows about baserunning 

[CaliAngel]

I think Hendricks just threw the best pitch of the evening on that K to Grandal. 

Wow what a pitch.
