ChabDog’s MLB Update — October 6 (Playoffs, Divisional Round):
- Padres lose starter Clevinger early, and then throw the kitchen sink at the Dodgers … the problem was that among the 8 pitchers used, there was simply no stopper. Some might say, that if the Dodgers don’t win with this ridiculously talented lineup… they’ll never win one again. #Padres #Dodgers
- After getting shelled in the Game 1, the Rays pushed back hard, both from the mound and the plate, including a ton of punch outs and a quartet of homers. If the Yankees thought advancing would be a walk in the park, they were sorely mistaken. #Yankees #Rays
- Two more dingers from Springer, and the A’s are on the edge of extinction once again. #Astros #Athletics
- Hotlanta puts an abrupt halt to Marlin momentum, torching the fresh fish for 1/2 a dozen in a searing 7th. #Marlns #Braves
