Ok sure I guess Pages.
Pages beats it out. Up to Michael Conforto. Looking for a Mic drop moment.
No DP
Dodgers gave it a try
Tee a ball up and Max can and will hit it
Last shot.
SSS, but Trivino’s been a bright spot.
Forkball vs splitter grip
Can’t get the images to post so here is the difference:

Gracias
Running out of time.
Need some very late inning magic.

Knack with the QS
Nicely done Landon!
Man. Dodgers are so close to breaking through. Just can’t sequence well all these base runners.
Knack out pitching Senga so far tonight. Just not the results.
Better than I expected. Defense let him down.
By basic numbers, Knack’s performance not too bad. Though defense has let him down, he’s thrown many fewer pitches than Senga.
Tough night for Will.
8 base runners and 1 run. Going to need another 16 base runners at this pace just to tie it up.
Let’s go Will. Just a little single or something.
In play, runs…please
Ok Shohei. Do your thing here.
Was hoping/expecting(?) Conforto to heat up back in Citi Field.
Be realistic…
Pages just missed it.
Teo with the wild base-running move there.
Wondering how they stretch out Ohtani to pitch since they ain’t sending him down to the farm. Obvious way might be to have him as the opener for regularly scheduled pen games and keep him out there a little bit more each time. Would there be an issue with the DH thing on those days?
Yes. The process will be an interesting one for sure.
Gee whiz Dodgers. Looking like 2024 Yankees out there.
Sad.
Knack giving up some hard contact outs
I’ve always considered Muncy a decent 3B, but it seems he’s in a clear defensive slump.
To go with his offensive decline sadly.
Max gets written off every year around here. Someday it will be borne out.
While I’ve always liked Max, I believe Dodgers have a club option on him next season. I suspect they’ll decline it.
So you think this is the year?
Over the next 80 games or so, I would gladly take Max’s last year’s stats and production of 3.0 BR WAR.
You are a generous fellow.
😜
Dodgers have a $10 million option on him for 2026. He’s currently on a two-year, $24 million contract.
He actually provided that 3.0 in only 73 games. Was a tremendous season when he was on the field.
Knick Knack got paddy whacked
Thanks Max
Geez. We definitely need a better 3B.
Jeez, that turned around quickly
Third base for both teams giving up outs. Mets capitalizing though.
Rats!! Should have got more.
It’s blackout Sunday again – thanks, ESPN!
Gameday is calling his pitch a forkball. Isn’t that the old-fashioned name for a splitter?
Elroy Face– the guy I associate with the fork ball
And, yeah, I think so.
I would think so.
Dang
Pour it on!
Play ball.
That’s the way to play ball!
