No, I agree with him. I hate the rule, as well. I guess I'm tired of his constant gushing of every opponent the Dodgers face in the playoffs every year.
My son, who was watching the game by himself in his room and so wasn't privy to my bitching to myself about the announcers just came downstairs and asked, "Dad, why do all the announcers always hate the Dodgers?". I told him it's something you need to get used to if you're going to be a Dodgers fan, been that way my whole life it seems....

Watching the replay of Morrow's bunt, Culberson did the right thing by not trying to advance. Rizzo was charging, and got to the ball quickly, with Bryant staying at third. Culberson would have been out by a mile.

I was astonished to see the atrocious starting lineup for the Dodgers but they won so I'll shut up. Hard to believe they finally get their first game 1 win in an NLCS is 32 years using a lineup with Kike batting cleanup. Go figure. I may lose more of my precious remaining hair fretting about all the moves they make that often seem so dumb to me but if they get into the series I'm ready to bow down to the newly crowned geniuses that got them there.

Still enjoying Game One even after sloughing through the snow so Herself could get her shop on. Kid called me about four hours ago, drunk off of his ass saying Game One was the best thing he had ever been through. He saw the game at a sports bar in Walnut Creek with Domi and it would seem he got an Uber home because he could barely form sentences. Something about talking shit to Cub fans there over the play. His argument after he managed to sober up was they were bitching the MLB was all about the Dodgers but you can't have it both ways with the pivotal play against the Nationals going their way - that play was much more inconclusive. Told him to sober up because the game is only a little over twelve hours later. Young man said he and Domi might've killed a bottle of Jagermeister at the bar. Yuck, that stuff is nearly battery acid. Something about each out by the pen warranted a shot. Twelve outs, twelve shots each. Yep, that will get you there in no time.

Battery acid might be better!
