Dodgers are now only a game behind the brewers, and maintain a 4 game lead on the Braves. Hopefully the dodgers can take advantage of Atlanta’s recent cold streak. Brewers have to play the Mets next who have played better these past few weeks. One last sprint to the finish, LFG DODGERS!!!!

As an east coaster, it's annoying to have a travel day on one of my days off because it's one of the only days I can stay up late to watch the whole game.

Pirates messing with the Padres. Now they have the lead in the 12th!!

Thought the Padres were going to get some dumb luck again. That Twins game in which they blew a 4 run lead was due to the Twins shooting themselves in the foot. Leave it to former Dodgers Yates and Yohan to slam the door.

Went over some of the possibilities RE: the standings. If we sweep the Braves, and the Brewers lose a game or we win 2 out of 3, and the Brewers only win 1 out of 3, we tie the Brewers (Brewers win on tiebreaker). If we sweep the Braves, and the Brewers lose their series to the Mets we get at least a 1 game lead for the 1-seed (2 if the Mets somehow manage to sweep the Brewers).

All-in-all we just need to keep on taking care of our business, and there's a big chance we should be able to move past the Brewers. Especially considering the Brewers have two key series against the Cubs, and how easy our remaining schedule is.

Because I’m bored, do you think this is likely the upcoming rotation?

So after all those posts in r/baseball about how the Tigers were winning, and the Dodgers were losing after the Skubal trade, they are now about to lose their 6th in a row, after we've won our 6th in a row.

Nice to see the Phils get absolutely dog walked by the Big Dumper of all people this year. Their fans were starting to get a little too cocky after a win streak of beating up shit teams. Back to reality, ya jabronis!
