AI GeneratedThe Brewers dominated the NLCS, consistently executing clutch pitches and limiting the Dodgers' scoring opportunities. While the Dodgers had numerous chances with runners in scoring position, they failed to capitalize, leading to a decisive defeat despite the final score.
Bob, you picked him to win, but on the other hand here,
were you shocked with the dominance that the Brewers had in this NLCS?
I was.
I mean, every time they had to make a clutch pitch, they did so.
I forget what the final stat was,
but I think that the Dodgers hit about 110
in the runners in scoring position.
You know, last night they had a bunch of chances to get back into it,
even though Tani's up, you know, particularly with one out,
guys in third base can never knock him in.
So, yeah, Brewers just did everything right,
and they manhandled them, really.
I know the final score doesn't look as great,
but it was a butt-kicking.
How about this, Bob?
When you look, and I just had Tim Neverton,
the voice of the Dodgers here,
you think it was just a case of them running out of gas?
With all the baseball that they've played,
can it just have been like that?
Because you and I talked about it,
and I brought it up the last time you were on.
I said, well, you know, they're trying
to become a team for, I don't know,
since when in the National League to win three straight,
and you went, Danny, they've never had a team in the National League
win three straight.
Could it just be that case, Bob, that they've done so much baseball
since 2017?
Yeah, I'm not sure.
I mean, yeah, they have played a lot.
You know, so did Atlanta back in the day
when they won all the 14-division
titles, but I think they're, you know, they're starting pitching
to let them down, too.
I mean, they're supposed to have the clear-cut favorite in every game,
and they end up with a 6.5 ERA.
You know, guys like Blake Snell and Tyler Glassnow, they're fresh.
They probably pitched all season because they were hurt.
They had the fresh arms.
They didn't do much.
They were okay.
But, yeah, the hitters looked old and tired all of a sudden.
I mean, Freddie Freeman, Mookie Betts, Max Muncy, you name it,
just kind of disappeared for them down the clutch.
And Ohtani.
Ohtani's hurt.
I think we'll see sometime in the next 10 days, two weeks,
some announcement by the Dodgers.
of Shohei Ohtani just underwent this type of surgery.
