I don't know that I would have sent him back out but a lot of outs left. Strahm next.
Smith
Foul, 0-1Ball inside, 1-1Smith HBP, 2 on, none out.
Strahm will come in for Ohtani.
Why did he leave Robertson on for another inning?
Robertson pitched reasonably well after joining the Phillies this season. Still, I'm a little confused as to why somebody would continue to use a person who was essentially retired, and nobody in MLB wanted.
Would be nice if there were not two base runners right now
Robertson picking up where he left off from last postseason
This is typical Thompson postseason management.
Ohtani
Pitch on outside corner called a ball, 1-0Foul, 1-1Foul, 1-2Batter timeoutCalled strike three, 1 down.
Straight fastball right down the middle.
Four strikes to Ohtani. The first one was called a ball, but that was a strike.
Betts
Strike called, 0-1Ball, 1-1Foul, 1-2Ball, 2-2Foul down the LF line, 2-2Ball, 3-2, way outsidePop up to Bohm, 2 down.
LA: "Huge out right there! Guess they're all huge right now"
I am somewhat surprised at how quickly Sanchez fell apart.
Hernandez
High, 1-03 run homer to right center, 5-3 LA.
Freeman
Ball 1-0Pop up to Bohm, but the damage is done. Mid 7th, 5-3 LA.
time to win from behind now as Strahm couldnt get it done
Didn't seem like a bad pitch. But we all expected these results from the bullpen.Offense must be better than 3 runs.
With a huge assist from the guy who allowed the first two runners on
Bottom 7th
Glasnow coming into pitch
Yeah, there are three more innings left. However, we did not expect them to get three runs against Ohtani.
