It’s as simple as this: Not so simple, is it? Especially when that ‘2021 NLCS Braves Win’ was a 9-2 pounding of the Dodgers, who managed only four hits – all singles. With the loss, and as noted above, the 2021 NLCS now sits at three games to one in favor of Atlanta. “Our backs […]

Thousands of fans crammed into Dodger Stadium on Tuesday for Game-3 of the National League Championship Series – 51,307 of the Dodger’s faithful, to be exact. Many had to take off from work to represent their team for the home opener of the best-of-seven series because of its 2:08 pm PT midweek start time. There […]

If you had a dollar for every time 26-year-old Dodgers outfielder/first baseman Cody Bellinger struck out on a high fastball during his injury-shortened 2021 regular season, you’d have quite a few dollars. In fact, of his 94 strikeouts in the 95 regular-season games in which he played, it’s probably safe to say that (at least) […]

The 2021 National League Championship Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Atlanta Braves moves to Dodger Stadium for Game-3 on Tuesday afternoon, with first pitch scheduled for 2:08 p.m. PT.

It was Thumper, the lovable little rabbit from the 1942 Walt Disney animated classic Bambi, who said it best: Taking Thumper’s words literally, there is “…nothing at all” to say about Sunday night’s second consecutive ninth-inning walk-off Dodgers loss to the Atlanta Braves in Game-2 of the 2021 National League Championship Series at Truist Field […]

A base-running blunder of epic proportion and a lack of timely hitting have put the Dodgers down one game to none to the Atlanta Brave in the 2021 National League Championship Series. With two outs and the game tied 2-2 in the top ninth inning, normally reliable Dodgers centerfielder Chris Taylor drew a two-out walk, […]

The Dodgers need four wins to advance to the 2021 MLB World Series, so the starting pitcher for Game-1 of the National League Championship Series was future Hall of Fame right-hander Max Scherzer, right? Nope. Nor was it one of the team’s young studs Walker Buehler or Julio Urias – all three of whom are […]

During his off-day Zoom media session on Friday afternoon, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts made it clear who his starting pitcher for Game-1 of the 2021 National League Championship Series against the Atlanta Braves at Truist Park would be. Clear as mud. “The guys are actually at the ballpark right now while we’re getting ready for […]

The Dodgers will open the best-of-seven 2021 National League Championship Series on Saturday at Truist Park against the Atlanta Braves, a rematch of the 2020 NLCS. Saturday’s Game-1 starts at 5:07 p.m. PT, followed by Game-2 Sunday (4:37 p.m. PT) in Atlanta before the series shifts to Dodger Stadium for Games-3 – 5 Tuesday, Wednesday, […]

Baseball fans – especially Dodgers fans – all season long have had to endure endless hype and hoopla about how good the San Francisco Giants were … ad nauseam. I mean, you couldn’t turn on a national sports program without hearing how Giants manager Gabe Kapler‘s team was preordained to win it all. Sorry, national […]
