This team is not capable of beating good
Pitching in a series. Second year in a row we've seen this. Time to fundmanently
Change or approach next year. Hit as many homeruns as you can works in the regular season. Not so much here.

Just got a notification that Kluber would be starting game 4 on short rest. Not good.

Cleveland has 4/6 runs off HR .

With teams as good on D as the remaining teams , HR is the only way to score

Kluber on short rest may be the best thing for them. He's never done it and we actually haven't hit him terrible this year

We just need to win tonight

Cleveland is playing piss poor as well. They may have a 3-0 lead in this series while only scoring 6 runs.

This is statistically untrue, the rate of hitting home runs drops off less than the rate of non home run hits and a larger. % of runs are scored by homers.

LA scored the only run last night on a HR.

Teams are so good at D It is almost impossible to get 3 singles against good teams

Walk and swing for the fences

A lot of eulogies being written in a 2-1 game with only 10 outs so far.

Don't get me wrong I love Russ, but holy crap he needs to be better. Automatic out right now. Just brutal to watch. I know other guys are struggling to, but he's got to get out of this funk.

Just find a way to win tonight boys. I really think they can take advantage of short rest for Kluber.

Feel bad for Bauer. Good effort trying to pitch and eat some innings for his team. Huge props to him. Just hope the jays can take advantage now.

The jays need to score before the end of the 5th or you get two innings from Miller in 6/7 and then two from the closer. Eventually they got to beat one of those guys but there swings against them so far haven't been close
