I live, but barely.
How are you?
Good Lord.
Summary later after my hands have worked well.

Although the Dodgers have already taken advantage of the Phillies with their game 1 victory, what they really wanted tonight to take full control over the series in Game 2. They did exactly that, but man what a damn trip to get there, right? Blake Snell And Jesus Luzardo Involved in the duel of a great pitchers, but the Dodgers reached Luzardo and Namen leaves another lead in the competition. That was true Dave Roberts didn’t go to Roki Sasaki For some reason, and it almost not cost them as a big series to save a 4-3 victory.
At the end of the day, 2-0 in the NLDs.
=======
The statistics say that Jesus Luzardo has thrown like a front-line starter despite an increased era, and he started the 1st with a strikeout of Shohei Ohtani After a battle of six pitch. But Mookie Betts then a single to the left, Teoscar Hernandez Won a battle of seven pitch to take a walk. Freddie Freeman Then he moved 2-0 ahead and smoked a 104 mph lining to the right, but it was caught on one to get Mookie to the third alone. Luzardo then got Tommy Edman To end the early threat.

Then he seemed to settle, by sailing a 2nd of 10 pitch and only needed eight fields to get through the 3rd. Luzardo then dominated a 1-2-3 4th with a few strikeouts and got the 5th on just six throws. Efficiency did not decrease in the 6th, such as Will Smith hit for Leg rortvedt And justified on the first throw, and Luzardo got the next two in just 10 more throws.

So yes … unnecessary to say, zero is running.
——
For the Dodgers, the Blake Snell was for the second time in four games this late season, and he started strongly with a 13-pitch inning in the 1st that included a strikeout and only a harmless two-out walk to Bryce Harper allowed. He then took only 12 throws to sail through a clean 2nd and add a few strikeouts. The 3rd started with a walk of seven kernels to Brandon MarshBut he then hit back-to-back hitters before he put a swamp on a 2-2 count with Kyle Schwarber On the plate to end the inning.

Snell went on and only needed 12 throws to poach two more in the 4th, and while he gave up his first hit of the game with two in the 5th, there was no damage.
The 6th was much more dangerous and it seemed to be where the Dodgers could lose it. A strikeout started things, but Trea Turner Drew a walk and stable second, then Schwarber also ran to set up a few. But Snell put on his things and closed, got a huge strikeout from Bryce Harper and then got Alec Bohm to grow Miguel RojasThat gymnast hardly hit the bag.

That was it for Snell, but it was glorious: 6 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 4 BB, 9 K, 99 throws.
Blake Snell has 4 career #Post season Trips with 9+ strikeouts and 2 or less permitted hits.
That is the most by every pitcher in MLB history! pic.twitter.com/bfztxhc30p

And so they were all zeros because of six innings, but not long.
Understandably it seemed like he could throw a shutout, Luzardo came out for the 7th, when the Dodgers started a rally of nothing. Teoscar Hernandez started the collection with a single, after which Freddie Freeman doubled to place a few in scoring position.
That was the end of Luzardo’s night, like Rob Thomson replaced him Orion ChurchWho received a huge strikeout from Tommy Edman to start with. However, Enrique Hernandez Followed by a dribbling a ball just past churching, who scored teoscar from third place and everyone was safe.

That raised Max MuncyHe hit Rojas, and he took a four -pitched walk to load things. Andy -Pages Followed but polluted to the first to put the Phillies on the edge. The wounded catcher Will Smith, however, stepped up big and loft a single to the left to plate two, making it 3-0.

With Shohei Ohtani up, it was Matt Strahm come in again, and he gave a single roasted past the inner field to score Max and bring it 4-0.

They no longer received, when Mookie flew out to end the frame, but caused enormous damage.
And so now with the management, it was that Emmet Sheehan In the 7th, and he looked very different from his last outing where he had no order. He received a 1-2-3 frame on just nine pitches to start his outing
In the 8th, Justin Dean Conducted as a defensive replacement for TeSoscar, which move Andy pages to the right. Sheehan caused a fly-out to Dean for the first outside, but then gave a triple on a 0-2 count Max KeplerWhile pages have played the ball in the corner. Trea Turner followed with a single to get the Phillies on the board and to set up their big boys with a golden chance.

Dave Roberts stayed with Sheehan and he responded by getting a strikeout from Schwarber and Flyout from Harper to end the inning and the threat.
In the meantime, the Dodgers tried to add insurance.
In the 8th, TeSoscar started with a single Tanner BanksBut he made a poorly advised attempt for the second base and was thrown away, which killed every momentum and they went quietly. Again Jhoan Duran In the 9th, a one-out Muncy-Double was followed by a two-out Dills walk to set up a few for Shohei, but he hit 2-2 curve.
The lack of insurance would be immediately relevant.
For whatever reason, Dave decided to come along Blake trains In the 9th as the closer despite Roki Sasaki existing. This immediately failed a counterproductive, as Bohm struck, JT RealMuto doubled, and Nick Castellanos Also doubled to make it 4-3.

Alex shutters Felled for a series of leftovers and the Dodgers drew a great wheel game during a SAC Bunt attempt, where Muncy got the leader in third place with Mookie cover. Harrison Bader Then hit Brandon Marsh, and he baseed to the left to turn on a few again, although Vesia Kepler led Freddie to digest for the second zero.

Eventually Dave went to Roki for the top of the order, and he came in again, giving Trea Turner to Edman Groundout, who stitched and threw low but was initially saved by Freddie Fucking Freeman to win the 4-3 victory.

Good God.
Good God
Irmagending position to use him where he at the same time does not trust to start the inning, but is then brought into a situation in which he cannot even bury his best pitch, causes a wild pitch binds it.

I apologize in advance, but I was just melting watching that, man.
Can’t believe that shit. They won and I am damn so pissed off.

Hard to know without knowing how he felt, but if he was good to go, then it was malpractice, imo. Even if you have to go to Vesia for the left, you start with Sheehan because you can take it out whenever you want. https://t.co/foansvc7o5

=======
3-0
The two teams now travel to Los Angeles on their day off before they restart things with Game 3 on TBS, Trutv and HBO Max at 3:08 pm HT/6: 08 pm Pt/9: 08 pm et. It will be Yoshinobu Yamamoto On the bump that is looking for his great start last time, and he will come across AARON NOLA.
Is there a reason why Ranger Suarez does not start? I was worried about him because he was nails in the play -offs for them. https://t.co/pamstg9et8
