Clayton Kershaw is now the second pitcher ever to give up 100 or more earned runs in the postseason. He's at 102. Andy Pettitte gave up 117, but Andy Pettitte also pitched 80 more innings than Kershaw has.

"He deserved that one!"

He spent two innings unable to locate in the zone! Nearly every strike he threw was demolished.

The commentary on Clayton Kershaw in this game was--even for professional sports broadcasts--incredibly undignified.

If the Dodgers leave Kershaw in for the 9th, he gets a plate appearance.

A fitting tribute to Kershaw to let him die at in the postseason at home

"It is tough to watch Clayton Kershaw struggle like this."

Clayton Kershaw is one of the most fake good pitchers I've ever watched. No meaningful moment was small enough for him to succeed. A true sunshine soldier/accumulator whose true nature would've shone through in any serious baseball town.

So beautiful to see Clayton Kershaw having his postseason moment in Dodger Stadium.

Honestly, they'd still get better innings from Koufax.

Thank you, Dave Roberts.

Ranger has to stay in through at least the next Freddie Freeman PA. Go one hitter at a time after that (if he gets Freddie).

I hope they give that Dodgers fan who just pitched another inning. He looked terrible.

You're telling me this Gen Xer has an unfiltered take on modern American society??? And he's from Massachusetts??? Holy moly, let me read 10,000 words a week about him.

We, as a society, are simply paying too much attention to Bill Burr.

I didn’t even know you could still commit recruiting violations in college football, but shame on me for underestimating Bill Belichick’s ability to innovate in the cheating space.

Ollie Connolly @ollieconnolly.bsky.social · 12h

Reports of serious recruiting violations remain under investigation at UNC. Recruiting and practice violations have already been proven by the school, according to multiple sources

This is why the elder millennial vs. regular millennial distinction is critical.

I would absolutely play a game where Zach Berman was a playable character, in fact the hero, with @bowulf.bsky.social his final boss.

I’m working on a short narrative game where you’re an aquarium salesman when Zach walks in the door, and you have to see how much you can get him to spend.

hi, baseball expert here! this is not funny, baseball managers only do this when they're in extreme distress

Matt Gelb @mattgelb.bsky.social · 2d

Aaron Nola is starting Game 3, Rob Thomson said. Ranger Suárez would pitch behind him.

I know this is disappointing but at least we can agree on the #1 move the Phillies need to make, and that’s getting rid of Aaron Nola. It wouldn’t have changed this outcome but come on it would rule.
