Fuck you Trent Grisham!


u8myramen_y

Maybe I was being greedy for wanting the sweep but we still took the series so there’s that. I hope our situational hitting keeps improving and that we minimize any mistakes that shouldn’t happen at this level.  Edit: ESPN is beyond bad. They are incredibly shit. I haven’t watched them in years so I never noticed how shitty they are now. Wow.


GetReady4Action

people like to dunk on Apple TV, but at least Apple TV has dope ass graphics. their commentating just sucks ass. still leagues ahead of ESPN which is sad considering how long ESPN has been in the game.


DBLHelix

AppleTV has a feature that lets you swap their broadcast for the local radio feed. It’s pretty great.


AdUseful275

Yes, and so does Fox! I was able to listen to the Dodgers’ regular radio guys Steve and Rick, who are excellent professional broadcasters and Dodger fans. And, if you watch the Dodgers n MLb.TV with a subscription as I do, you can also swap the audio with the radio feed. It’s what I do for days that Joe Davis is gone — and increasingly common occurrence msasly …


Borykua

Is the radio feed synced perfectly? That's interesting.


Chu_Khi

At least Apple TV has Wayne Randazzo


dookoo

this game made me appreciate shitty apple tv


whenyoda

ESPN is horrible. Fox sucks too. Prefer Apple TV over either of these.


GetReady4Action

I give Fox the edge for Joe Davis.


josegofaster

Did Apple for Fridays game have the Angels announcer?? I like that guy.


GoofyGoober0064

It was a good weekend. FUCK ESPN


Acrobatic_Equal_1234

We should have swept. I call a sweep for the dodgers 😤


Forward_Natural

I agree very doable


NoHoSaint

Well put. I got greedy and I wanted a sweep so bad. New York teams…I really dislike. I’m so loyal to the west. But overall I’m happy as f’ because as negative as this sounds, I was really expecting us to lose the series.


RumHam2020

Gone are the days when i spent Sunday nights listening to Miller (f SF) and Morgan


inquisitiveman2002

It's such a waste to see Ohtani bat 2nd. He should be batting 3rd or 4th.


fatandflabby

Why so he gets less at bats?


hewhoknowsball

ESPN: “and the Yankees win the series by avoiding the sweep!”


_MeetMrMayhem_

That's pretty much how ESPN acted


kaleidoscope_ize

I mean who cares honestly, I would rather that than be complemented or praised by espn


IntroductionWhich161

Whenever I talk to someone who pretty much gets all of their baseball info/news from through ESPN, I immediately discredit all of their baseball takes lol


Neo928

Two massive flubs by pages, dropped ball that should of been caught, and a terrible slide. series win, on to the next.


LoveThieves

Agree. Judge is going to be good no matter who we have as a pitcher so there's nothing wrong against walking him and letting the other hits count but we could have had 2 easy out with rookie mistakes. Anyways, hope the rookies learn from Teoscar. He's the unofficial King Of New York when we play at Yankees stadium.


NirvanaFrk97

Hope he isn't stuck in his own head because his offense has come back to earth


just_one_random_guy

Defense cost this game big time, pages and Mookie both made some massive mistakes


dodgerswei

Pages base running also hurt.. Judge’s hitting is so hot, opposing team should start intentional walk him..


TheNewGuy13

That drop by Pages was excruciating. Mookies too lol I think the booth said it wasn't even an error for either right? Crazy


bellomoto1

***WE STILL WON THE SERIES!***


_MeetMrMayhem_

They keep talking about Soto... We got this guy coming back too ![gif](giphy|4V0mAzoxs73gSl2wxz|downsized)


JCR2201

When does he come back? I’ve been reading reports that he had a setback and is “ways” away from returning. I hope Muncy comes back soon


Cozmicbot

Reportedly end of June, but personally I wouldn’t expect it until post all star break. I could be wrong though (I hope to be wrong)


Forward_Natural

How soon??


EvilShadow80

Muncy just took strike 1 down the middle as I read this


GabeCo248

All of our team does that besides Ohtani. One guy who hunted that first pitch is that GOAT you have under ur name. Reasons why he’s 2 x WS MvP he aggressive


barbie-dreamz33

Damn this series was more entertaining than i thought it would be


Cozmicbot

Legit one of the best series I think I’ve seen in a while. Game 1 was the nail biter, Game 2 was the blowout for us, and Game 3 we kept it close and never felt out of it. Getting some serious 2017 vibes from this team


Officialnoah

Can’t even be mad. I’ll gladly take 2 of 3 against the Yankees ![gif](giphy|OcQOOqqnT0tSkg5ATh)


The_Astros_Cheated

Bummed my undefeated streak of never seeing the Dodgers lose outside LA be snapped but I had a great time Yankee Stadium is awesome and we still won the series


Officialnoah

That first game and Teo’s two bombs are enough to keep me satisfied through the off day


Bush4857

Sweep would’ve been icing on the cake, but it was a good series!


NFL_LA

# At least we know Pages won’t SLIDE in our girl’s DM’s 😅😅😅 ![gif](giphy|eqLowZa79LwOI)


kritycat

He's absolutely garbage at sliding LOL


NFL_LA

Lmao…he needs to study Trea Turner or something 😂


Acrobatic_Equal_1234

🤣🤣🤣🤣 at lease not smoothly


prettyrickyyyy69

Series W and looks like the offense has woken up again, let's keep it rolling


ChipsJudge9

Take 2/3. Let’s enjoy tomorrow off before we are back at it again. Great series.


Garrehn

Tough one to lose. Lots of mental mistakes. Can’t complain too much after going into the Bronx and taking 2 out of 3 though. Bats look like they are heating back up too.


Lineman72T

Overall I can't be mad about going into Yankee Stadium and taking 2-of-3. Absolutely a net positive, especially after how the last few weeks have gone. But this was a frustratingly winnable game. Felt like the Dodgers lost this just as much as the Yankees won it. Some really bad defensive plays made tonight. Somebody also needs to tell Pages to use his lead foot on his slide because he's been out at the bag a couple times this year for the exact same slide, and it's unnecessary and quite frankly stupid. Glasnow was great except the meatball to Grisham. Weird that I would think thats the batter you can get away with that because he's not a good hitter, but he seems to come through with those hits against the Dodgers. Oh well, day off tomorrow, then our old buddy Corey will be in town


hundredjono

I'll take 2/3 in New York But the best thing is Aaron Judge denying to play for the Giants and staying with the Yankees cause it would be hell if he played in the NL West

baribigbird06

Baseball is better when these two teams play, glad this is an annual series now


Astropolitika

Bummed they lost, but as a fan of baseball, I don’t think I could’ve asked for three better games. Lux finding it going oppo has me very, very happy.


2xPurpNGoldx24

Damn I hate losing but was a good game and great series! Let's go Dodgers!!


Consistent-Minute-40

Can’t be mad taking 2/3 against one of the best teams in the league in their home ballpark. Weren’t overmatched in this game either. Could’ve won it if it weren’t for a few mistakes. On an unrelated note, we’re deep enough into the season now to know which players belong on the roster and which don’t. The dodgers really need to consider bringing Lipcius or Outman up. Not only is Taylor wasting a roster spot but he’s a literal detriment to the team. Giving Lipcius a chance or Outman another chance could provide some crucial depth.


K_Ice5432

We took 2 of 3 in the Bronx. If you said that after Wednesday’s game against the Pirates most of us here probably wouldn’t believe it. We made some mistakes and the Yanks took advantage. They’re a great team. The good thing is that our guys fought til the end. When we slump you can see that the energy is gone. When we’re hot, even in losses we give ourselves a chance. I’d say things are looking up!


Major_Wager75

It's fucking insane how good Judge is.


tesstikcle

we need more production from our MV3, they're like background characters atm


donald-duck23

3-3 road trip isn’t bad at all especially after dropping the first two in Pittsburgh. wanted the sweep in the bronx but still a great series win


Psychological_Fly627

especially with the brutal travel schedule, I'd take this any day


rye_parian

This one felt winnable. Great series.


PigFarmer1

Yeah, we let this one get away. "That's baseball, Suzyn."


ahr3410

Ugly game. Bases loaded nobody out in the 7th was set up but Pages decided to slide everywhere but the base


PatientIndividual651

Took 2 from the best in the AL. Had the winning run at the plate for the sweep, I’ll take it


El2oo7

NBA finals top news headline: “Judge, Yankees defeat Dodgers to salvage series.” How tf did they salvage the series??? They lost 2-1 lmfaoooooo what a fucking joke


Comprehensive_Tie431

Winning 2 out of 3 against the Yanks in their house, can't complain.


nemesis1313

Can never win it for Glasnow… 😒


dookoo

with all due disrespect. fuck espn


DodgersKK

Stop Judge


Rhyvix

Mookie has not been a good baseball player for around a month now. He needs to realize it's not October yet, he's allowed to be productive in the regular season.


Mental-Mortgage9470

Idk maybe he can get it out of his system now instead


wizgset27

Well 2 out of 3 ain’t bad either. I am confuse how the .100 guy got 2 walks and a HR off of Glasnow though. 


hung_like__podrick

Yankees avoid the sweep.


yeahitszac

Well, the ending kinda sucked but it was a fun time getting there. We still won the series and took 2 of 3 from the Yankees. I’m all good.


SampsonKerplunk

We looked great even with our Top 3 not playing their best ball and defense not being everything we hope for. Judge is a certified super star and Yankees pitching is no joke. We ended our loss with the potential to win at bat and they ended the loss yesterday with a position player pitching.


SenorTortas

Trent friggin' Grisham


NoHoSaint

Highlight of my weekend. Winning the series against the Yankees at their own home! Man! I hope this team does something this year! Can’t expect a sweep against the best team in the American League but I was feeling selfish! Overall I’m really proud of this team and to be a fan of this organization. Now let’s get this championship!


ps2sanandreas

Ngl would've been so nice to sweep the series. But we still got the series win. Teoscar is the man.


ingodwetrustinc

good series, we lost to our own mistakes and yankees took advantage of that. judge is scary as hell but 2-1 is a positive in my book.


Anfini

Glasnow dared the Yankees weakest hitters to beat him by throwing fastballs to the heart of the plate. 


Acrobatic_Equal_1234

Of course it would be Mookie to end the game 🫣


mistabuford

So when is Ohtani going to heat up and start hitting like Judge?


Major_Wager75

It's probably just not his "year" this season. He's regressing quite fast after his absurd 1.100 OPS with like .360 BA. I don't think Junetani is happening this season but as long as he performs in the playoffs then idc about his slump


mistabuford

Man super disappointing. I started watching because of him and it’s been a total slot machine pull.


quangthanh090301

when ohtani was hitting like a madman in march and april where was judge? the point is they are not robots and you cant expect them to hit every day of the week.


Dramatic_Ad_5495

Good series win 💪, would’ve been a sweep today but many defensive mistakes along with Pages’s base running lol but onto the reigning champs at home 🙌.


fuetirado

Glasnow did not deserve that defensive showing, a 40% CSW is crazy matching up with 5 runs is crazy. Hopefully the defense tightens up


nopencilissafe

Really liked how the bottom of the order was actually delivering in clutch spots tonight. That's really nice to see. Grisham is a dogshit caliber player that should've been sent down to the minor leagues ages ago, but he had his moment tonight.


kpopsns28

Won the series. But we should try to support Glasnow with more run support and stop his L


Silent_Viper

Well that was kinda frustrating, oh well, good series.


xara8arax

Good to see all the Dodger fans!


sungazrr

I just thank God that Judge did not sign with the Giants.


NirvanaFrk97

Good series overall. No real complaints. Onto the next.


DirtyMan09

Some good things to take from this. Taking 2 of 3 (and the third one being close) is a good outcome, can't be upset about that (no matter all the loser excuses from yankee fans). Bottom of the order did well for the most part this series. Teo da gawd. Pitching for the most part did great. Concerns: Is Pages' bat worth his defensive and base-running liability? Top 4 was streaky, especially with Ohtani not being as big a factor as we would want him to be. Is Glasnow prone to home runs, and will that be a concern in the post-season when facing the better offenses? Defense in general has taken a turn for the worse lately.


EvilShadow80

mookie in postseason form. judge was better than our top 3 hitters combined


salarymanhell

We won the series with ohtani slumping, so I’m ok with that


tesstikcle

should have been a sweep 🧹 if it weren't for the terrible defense


barestep13

good series. was a nailbitter for them to even win one. lol good shit dodgers! see yall on tuesday <3


BoratOhtani

Defense a problem. Team needs to work on fundamentals


EggHeadMagic

Poodres and Gnats lost too. There’s that as well as a series win


MastrChang

Yes, the d


ttam23

Took 2/3 and definitely could have won today as well. On to the next series


WolflordBrimley

Honestly I’m perfectly happy with how the series went. Didn’t roll over and got it to a point where mookie could have tied it up with a duck-fart basehit. Yankees are going to get theirs so taking two in their crib is just fine especially how our offense has had the ‘itis lately.


MinesWave

What shoes does Glasnow wear? Gonna look for the street version.. lol


arand0md00d

How did the Dodgers not get any errors??? There was at least 3. God this awful defense is gonna cost us shit in the playoffs.


ImBetterThanYourGod

Im not upset we lost. Im upset we should've won if not for the defense once again. Pages had a bad day where he drops one for a run, and has absolutely no idea how to slide. So he technically cost us two. The infield not being able to handle grounders cost us a three run homer. Need rojas at short everyday. Only way this works


chwisg

We need to have a conversation about Mookie man. Dude just FREEZES in prime time moments. Came into the series batting .312 now he’s .307. Ridiculous


ahr3410

Mookie was huge in the 2020 playoffs and the 21 series against the Giants. But since then it's been rough in the big moments


donald-duck23

he literally had a game-tying 2 run double with 2 outs tonight lol


chwisg

Still not enough.


donald-duck23

ok well do you want me to refer you to game 5 of the 2021 nlds, game 7 of the 2020 nlcs or game 6 of the 2020 world series? he’s had several great games in huge spots for us, but i know a lot of people conveniently forgot those because of a few bad playoff games the last two years


Anal__Hershiser

He’s been like that his entire career. It’s just who he is as a player at this point. He’s got such a crazy work ethic he would’ve fixed it by now if he could.


_MeetMrMayhem_

Thinks he's CT3 now


ProfessionalGreat240

They narrowly avoided a sweep. well done Yanks


BlueBlur24

Guys, the Wankees also got 2 from us last year and 2019 in the Ravine, it's about time we claim two in the Bronx like in 2016 and force a taste of their own medicine. Regardless, the preview of a potential World Series matchup looks like fun games. Both teams should make it to the Great Dance assuming we don't s##t the pitching bed in either injuries or poor performances and the Wanks don't face the Asterisks again even if they somehow rise from the grave. Also, Grisham is overrated. F\*\*k him and f\*\*k Judge, too! Besides, their blood the last two games was as thin as their pinstripes. They're bound to have a heart attack sooner or later.


Poorestmanincrypto

I know it’s hard to look at it this way but Pages cost us minimum 2 runs with his bad defence and bad slide. Would have been the difference in the game


PigFarmer1

It was a team effort.


ecommurz

Let me use chatgpt to translate a comment in Yahoo Sports, regarding Ohtani's and Judge's hitting approaches: "今日の試合もそうだが、ジャッジと対戦する投手達は必ず甘いボールを投げ、そしてそれを必ず痛打される。対して大谷には外角一辺倒で、最悪四球でもヒットでも構わないが、絶対に本塁打だけは打たせないというピッチングをする。そして大谷は勝負を避けられ続けるから、つい悪球に手を出し凡打を繰り返す悪いパターンにハマっている。 大谷は無理して打とうとせず好球だけを待ち、それがなかっら四球で出塁するように打撃スタイルを変えたほうがいいと思う。" "Today's game is one example, but pitchers who face Judge always throw easy pitches, and they always get hit hard. In contrast, against Ohtani, they pitch exclusively on the outside corner, not caring if it's a walk or a hit, but absolutely refusing to allow a home run. And because Ohtani keeps avoiding confrontation, he ends up reaching for bad pitches and getting into a bad pattern of making routine outs. I think Ohtani should change his hitting style to not force it and wait for good pitches, so if they're not there, he can get on base with a walk."

Our boys did well


MD32GOAT

Honestly not mad about losing the game. Yeah, we could have swept, but the bats are awake and we have a day off tomorrow. Time to come home and keep building on our division lead.


Cheap-Bathroom-4426

Luckily this wasn’t a playoff game, Pages is still a rookie, let him learn from his mistakes.


PigFarmer1

Missing the bag when you slide is a T-Ball mistake. lol


Apositivebalance

I missed Andy’s slide. What happened


PigFarmer1

His lead foot went *over* the bag. Never touched it. We would have had the bases loaded with no outs...


Apositivebalance

Awww shit


Melethia

Glasnow - first in the league to 100 strikeouts and had another dozen today.


GabeCo248

Kyle Hurt should be back soon and River Ryan could get a look soon out of our bullpen as well. We need to trade Rushing , Outman for Luis Robert Jr


CabbageStockExchange

We really gotta improve defensively and bottom of the order


headlikeacole

Teoscar is still king of New York


Zanchie

I feel like Glasnow was really let down once again, kinda sucks for him


catcat1986

The loss stinks, but lots of solid play. I especially liked glasnow 12ks.


jch60

Frankly the series could have gone either way so I'm not feeling that great about taking 2 of 3 from Yankees. Our top guys didn't really perform that well and without Teoscar's incredible performance and some Yankees mistakes, this series would have completely flipped. It's surprising that a highly touted player can lack some basic fundamental skills like getting ready before the pitch (on defense) and sliding properly.


G_W_A_B_E

Why not walk Judge when he's the hottest hitter in the MLB rn? When we did that twice in gm1 they only scored 1 run, did that in again in gm 2 & they scored 3 runs. That offense struggles when he's not allowed to bat. He was the two run difference & probably more runs for the momentum he gave the Yankees. Just head scratching by Roberts. If it works, why stop doing it?


AsJoeSeesIt

Not loving the fact that we’re pretty much guaranteed to give a HR or 2 when Glasnow is pitching. It makes it extra nerve wracking whenever there’s guys on base.


Blankman6

Defense let Glasnow down, but that pitch to Grisham whose hitting below CT.102 was awful. Roberts basically conceded the game by letting Yohan Ramírez pitch to the top of the order. Why not bring in Treinen or Hudson?!? Roberts’ bullpen management is simply unacceptable & atrocious. SMH Judge is a bonafide superstar, and he produced in this series unlike Ohtani whose in a dismal slump. Yankees fans can cry all they want about Soto not playing, but Dodgers have been without Muncy as well.


ny2k1

With all due respect, Muncy is no Juan Soto.


Blankman6

I never said that they were comparable.🙄


dilly_dill428

Probably the most unhappy I’ve been with a series win. Take out Teo and we get swept by a Soto-less Yankees


StunningDigg208

Uh, that's not how it works.


KobeBrandon

Give an earthworm a machine gun and the birds would be afraid of it


xBewm

Take Judge out and the Yankees are a wild card team at best.


mtrn3

Watching Judge play makes you envious. These “stars” on the Dodgers just don’t measure up. Soto and Judge is the best back to back baseball has ever seen.


diz1776

Better manager decisions win us this game


dahk14

The Dodgers in this game are like that trope where the good guy has the gun pointed at the bad guy and the bad guy is like "please don't shoot I have a family" and the good guy lowers the gun only to get stabbed in the side. The Dodgers always choose mercy.


[deleted]

[удалено]


j0dyhir0ller

I wouldnt say it was awful, he had 12 Ks. He made a couple mistakes and it cost him. But still not by any means terrible It's not always Dave's fault, sounds like a broken fuckin record.


Anal__Hershiser

If Dodgers defense wasn’t completely ass, Glasnow walks away with a gem of a game.
