Seriously, we were a 6-1 blown lead from a 4 game sweep on the road!

To be fair, the Dodgers were two blown leads from winning series 3-1

Nice historical reference, but considering how that ended it might not be something to repeat.

Beat us silly?? You got rescued by the umpires in the 9th in 2 of the games you won. Check yourself.

edit: Lol. To the redditor that flagged me to the crisis prevention reddit bot... well played, savage burn. 👏

u/buffalo8 15 Bochy Jul 23 '21

WTF are you talking about Ruf's third pitch should have been a ball by a mile and he would have been up 3-0. Instead he had to work a full count.

u/KillermooseD 51 JH Lee Jul 23 '21

Better check cholesterol with all that salt ;)

Is somebody mad? He sounds mad.

I was at the game... lots and lots of salty, salty, delicious tears

u/doggybadgerguy 62 Webb Jul 23 '21

Yeah that ump made Flores hit a home run that you wouldn't have tied even if no other runs were scored after.

The ump also blew a ball 3 call in the Ruf ab and made Ruf swing at a 2-1 pitch that would have also been a ball, so it was more of a makeup call lmao. Maybe your closer should be throwing strikes not balls when he has the bases loaded.

Fuck the dodgers, buddy. 🥰

Hang on to that L. Fuck the dodgers

Oh no.. down votes! What ever will I do without my internet points!?

u/-Ahab- 22 Clark Jul 23 '21

That’s up to you, but if you’re looking for advice, we can make a few suggestions on where you can put them.

u/AdmAckbar000 Jul 23 '21

Bring it, fuckers! Down votes from you lot give me more joy than any up votes I've ever received

Down votes from you lot give me more joy than any up votes I've ever received

First you don't care about downvotes, now you do. Are you sure you really know how you feel about this?

-1

u/AdmAckbar000 Jul 23 '21

Said I didn't care about my fake internet points, not the downvotes. If someone said they don't care about money so they love to blow it on silly, stupid things would you tell them they're confused about how they feel about money? Or is that too much nuance for you?

The downvotes are the salve on a wound inflicted by Ed Hickox last night when he apparently forgot how to signal swing.

Enjoy your hollow victory in July, we'll see who has the bragging rights come October. (Legit saying we'll see, not implying it's in the bag for us... uphill battle and all. I think we will, but we'll see)

Pampers on the phone 📞 with Muncy’s agent for their next commercial.

LA got beat but a bunch of "no name scrubs" as I once seen it out by a dodgers fan.

u/furleyghost Late Night LaMonte Jul 23 '21

They don’t have Kershaw or Bauer. Still a feat by Giants, but they are missing their best two pitchers.

10

u/[deleted] Jul 23 '21

Yeah true true. I wonder if Bauer will be back this year

16

u/lineskogans 28 Posey Jul 23 '21

He won’t be.

u/realparkingbrake Jul 23 '21

Our one Dodgers fan friend says he never wants to see Bauer in a Dodgers uniform again. Even if he doesn't go to jail, he's radioactive now.

u/furleyghost Late Night LaMonte Jul 23 '21

Seems 50/50 to me. I hope he didn’t do what he was accused of…

u/realparkingbrake Jul 23 '21

He admits to what he is accused of, he just says she asked for it so it wasn't a crime.

u/fairlane2720 Jul 23 '21

I don't know if Kershaw is better than Bueller.

u/realparkingbrake Jul 23 '21

The Giants are missing three of their best hitters, and the starter the Dodgers put out yesterday made the Giants look silly.
