Game 1 in LA starts at 1015 ET, but at least it's a Friday
Normally it wouldn't be too bad, but it has been a busy week.
Excuses...

:P

Guess what? Just found out I'm going to Game 1 in LA! I'll be there with my DBacks shirt displayed proudly.

I'll be sitting behind home plate on the first base side in the section just behind the "dugout club" seats. Unfortunately, the other guys I'm going with are Dodger fans. :P

Have fun! It's always rough going into hostile territory with your home team jersey. Be prepared!

As long as I don't get beat up, I should be fine. :P

As long as you don't wear a Giant jersey at Dodger Stadium, you should be fine. That was one of the worst things I've ever heard of that happened to a fan. Pretty gut wrenching to read about and follow at the time and even now.

Is anybody attending more games than 'Bone this month ?? Geeez lol :D

I don't watch much baseball , caught a little of the Wild Card game when I saw it trending on Twitter :oops: . Honestly I watched more of last night's game, don't know if the Astros are a rival so forgive me guys but I saw a feature on Altuve on Wednesday and was like Wow that dude is small so was curious to see him play. So to see him in real time for the first time and he hit 3 homers, I only saw two though I was like :shock: . Just checked Espn to see what time Suns playing and saw they beating up on Red Sox again and he has two more hits so clearly he is as advertised

The Dodgers kinda cooled off to end the season right ? Guys think D Backs can get the series win ?

Very. Walker couldn't find the zone early and hung a momentum swinging homerun.

Great weekend for sports fans in Arizona.

Connie Hawkins, RIP.

Dbacks on the verge of being swept after losing the first two games.

Cardinals get trounced in Philadelphia today, continuing their downward spiral and losing more players to injuries.

Coyotes lose in overtime.

Suns lose to the Jazz.

Walker looked scared as hell from the get-go. I could tell when he was warming up that he was incredibly nervous. He looked sick and scared. Should we advance any further, he should be removed from the rotation. He’s weak.

Not really sure why Godley was the one kicked out of the rotation. He should have started game 1.

In fact, of Walker-Corbin-Godley, Walker is easily the player I trust the least. He’s a mentally weak player, as evidenced by how openly flustered he was for a few starts to throw in on batters after he pegged a guy in the head.

Yeah, watching it, Walker should have obviously not been the starter for game 1. Might end up being the difference.
