    I can't believe they pulled Snell. What a boner move. He was pitching a masterpiece. Unhittable. Cash overthought it. Sort of like when Pete Carrol didn't give the ball to Beast Mode on the 3 yard line in the Super Bowl.

    And Yeah DODGERS! Go Big Blue!

    So sad that of the teams I root for, this is "my" first championship since, well, the Dodgers in '88.

    So now LA has two of the big three. Please don't let the Rams win the Super Bowl....

    You know that he had no control over that decision, right? That the "starting pitcher never faces a batter a third time" doctrine was long-since predetermined by the front office?

    Same here. Except I was only 6 years old in 88 and had no team for anything, so I don't count that one.

    Agreed on Snell. Total boner move

    But the Seahawks were on the ONE-yard line.

    Wow. Turner insisting on partying with teammates. Returned to the field after the game, both with and without mask. That’s a bit selfish.

    Wonder how many folks from the WS will end up with COVID.

    “You just won a World Series! What’re you gonna do now?”

    “I’m going to get COVID tested!”

    My guess is he had been in the dugout all game on the field and around the team all day. If they didn't have it yet, him celebrating on the field after his first world series win wasn't going to give it to them.

    Well, MLB is investigating. He may be fined because he refused to follow established protocols. MLB tried to have him leave the field/celebration and he emphatically refused to comply.

    Investigation over. No punishment for Turner.

    Not publicly anyway. MLB decided this WS is a joke and nobody really cares anyway. I agree. #asterisk
