Rays 1-0 dodgers, top 2nd
Mike Zunino hit a massive foul home run, the beams get a few solid pitches to hit so far. He takes the next field and then swings to break a ball with which he could do nothing. He follows the next field for a full count, Gonzolin’s field count is now 39. Well, 40 years as Zunino remains alive foulting the next field.
He just hit the next field, but it’s a foul. Still 3-2. Now, Gonzolin makes him swing and miss. Two below.

Rays 1-0 dodgers, top 2nd
Kevin Kirmaier hit the one where the outsiders are not and ends up on the second base with one out.

Rays 1-0 dodgers, top 2nd
Willie Adams strikes in search of a second start.

Email from Carl Taylor:
Well, that was quite a burden for Gonzolly at the start of this crucial game 6. I’m not sure he will last more than 4 times and with Snell’s starts usually shrinking, what are the chances of the winning pitcher coming off a storm?
How 70% maybe? Gonzolin is definitely not long in this game, no matter how well he calms down and no team will be conservative to head to the “pen”. Will will live his life as if there is no tomorrow, as Van Hallen would say.

Rays 1-0 dodgers, bottom 1st
Nextin Turner, probably the Dodgers’ most dangerous weapon in the series, is next in line with empty bases after Snell received those first two quick attacks. Here he leads 0-2 before seeing if he will swing the ball out. Turner does not, but he hits the next field.
This time the bumper is the music of Alesika. Will it be all hippie jam bands just tonight?

Rays 1-0 dodgers, bottom 1st
And Snell immediately attacks Corey Sieger. Wow

Rays 1-0 dodgers, bottom 1st
Mookie Bates manages things. With great thanks from Snell.

E-mail from XG with the title “Dodgers explode!”:
Hey Hunter, I feel like it’s the year of the city of angels .. lakers, dodgers and rams! I have to feel that the rays gave everything they had, reminiscent of the Lakers who beat the Heat in the final … 7-1
Well, they should do the closing overnight, but it’s still on the table as an option.

(@alexspeier)Arozarena has 10 homers in her first 25 playoff games in her career. Only Beltran (13!) And Nelson Cruz (11) ever had more at the start of their post-season careers.
Arozarena was pretty good, I think that’s the point.
00:25
Rays 1-0 dodgers, top 1st
Next is Joey Wendell, who is still a runner-up in the first and second. Wendl fouls 1-2, off the field, somehow without trembling, and then sends punches to complete the end of the entrance. The rays hit first, however. Oh oh, is that Grateful Ded’s Sheikadown Street as a bumper music? I strongly approve of that (even if it was more appropriate if the San Francisco giants played).
00:20
Rays 1-0 dodgers, top 1st
Manuel Margot takes a high tackle on 0-2. Take it easy. 1-2. He commits a foul on the next field and then takes the field in the dirt. Gonzolin finally gets stuck and he flies out. Two out.
00:17
Rays 1-0 dodgers, top 1st
Brandon Lowe works here completely and eventually takes a walk. There are runners on the first and second, and still only one outside the entrance.
00:13
Rays 1-0 dodgers, top 1st
Austin Meadows hit single. Let’s be honest and say that Gonzolin has not settled yet.
00:12
Homework! (Rays)
Rays 1-0 dodgers, top 1st
And Arozarena hit Gonzolin’s massive home run. The rays strike first and super-fast.
00:10
First field
Rays 0-0 dodgers, top 1st
The first pitch is there for Choi to strike. Gonzolin gets two swings and misses, and Choi goes out on only three pitches. Nice start.
00:03
Predictions
Well, theoretically the game will start soon. I guess this is the last call for prediction. I have a Dodgers winner tonight, a low-scoring affair where the rays continue to tie late but can’t drive him inside. Let’s say Dodgers 4, Rays 3.
I agree? I do not agree? You can send your predictions here by email (to [email protected]) or post them on @HunterFelt.
23:57 p.m.
Alex Rodriguez only interviewed Dave Roberts and mentioned his Thief who has been changing ALCS since 2004. It turns out that this is now considered “history”. I feel old, but I’m also reviewing the clip to see if it makes me a little better for the lost season of the Boston Red Sox. (Not really, but it was worth a try.)
23:52 p.m.
Composition of dodgers
Manager Dave Roberts will present the following:
1. Mookie Bates, RF
2. Corey Sieger, SS
3. Austin Turner, 3B
4. Max Mansi, 1B
5. Will Smith, Denmark
6. Cody Bellinger, CF
7. Chris Taylor, 2B
8. Hey hey Pollock, LF
9. Austin Barnes, C.
23:50
Stacking rays
Tampa Bay manager Kevin Cash is having a tough time with Tony Gonzolin on the embankment.
1. Jii-Man Choi, 1B
2. Randy Arozarena, LF
3. Austin Meadows, D.H.
4. Brandon Lowe, 2B
5. Manuel Margot, RF
6. Eyoi Wendl, 3B
7. Willie Adams, SS
8. Kevin Kirmaier, CF.
9. Mike Zunino, C.
11:45 p.m.
I will say this about team sports: in the most uncertain year of many of our lives, it is good to sit down and watch something and know that there will be a definitive solution in a few hours. If the Dodgers finish the game after scoring more beams. they win the World Series. If the rays have more runs, there will be match 7. Tomorrow will not take a few weeks to sort out, there is no way for any team to refuse to leave the field and have some higher authority eventually declare them winners.
11:38 p.m.
With the Dodgers on the verge of winning their first World Series since 1988, there will surely be at least one or two recommendations for Kirk Gibson’s legendary home race from that world series (although it was Game 1, instead of a decisive game, it should be noted) .
23:31 p.m.
If the Dodgers win today, it will probably be celebrated in Los Angeles. Normally, this is a positive thing or at least a neutral thing. However, given the reports that the ceremony after winning the NBA Finals in Los Angeles Lakers, almost certainly contributed to the increase in cases of Covid-19. So the LA Department of Health has alerted:
“As fans continue to follow and celebrate the powerful sports teams in LA, we are aware that if individuals do not comply with the health care provider’s requirements for distance, infection control and camouflage, cases will continue to rise, which unfortunately does not. “It not only leads to increased illness and death, but it also slows down our journey of recovery.”
23:26
Today’s starting pitchers
The Rays will start with Blake Snell, while the Dodgers will go with Tony Gonzolin. However, they will probably be just an attraction, they will ask both teams to empty their headquarters and play this game as if there is no tomorrow, because, maybe, there will not be.
23:21
Preamble
Well, I will give credit where credit is due. It was a strange, pandemic shortened season in MLB, but at least it ends with some drama. Despite joining the much-anticipated Los Angeles Dodgers, the Bay Reims in Tampa managed to make the World Series a series as well. At the very least, no one will ever forget the dramatic-yet-stupid way they stole Match 4. The Dodgers retaliated in Match 5, fueled by another strong start from longtime ace Clayton Kershaw, who has now set up his last October fight in the mirror. The Dodgers have grown 3-2 in the series and just need a win today to secure the championship title.
It’s a little hard to wrap your head around the fact that the Dodgers, who have consistently been one of the best teams in the National League, have not actually won a championship. It’s October Baseball for you, eight consecutive games after the season ended in failure. If they bring this world series 3-2, lead to the rays, it will surely continue the narrative to be unattainable, and the inexplicable way in which they completely melted in game 4 will go from just a weird but fun game to 21st century is the closest equivalent of Game 6 between the Boston Red Sox and the New York Mets back in 1986.
That, of course, will be selling the beams briefly. They do not have as much talent as this Dodgers line-up and a relatively small fan base, but even when they became short, they continued to put pressure on their announced opponents. If they can win today, they will force LA to play game 7. As exciting as it is for ordinary fans, no team wants their entire season to be reduced to a game where, as they say, anything can happen. it happened .
So, that’s the bet for game 6: either it’s over today or the rays continue the MLB season for another game. It means that we are in the territory “speak now or keep your peace forever”. If you would like to contribute to today’s live blog, you can send us your thoughts via email (at [email protected]) or via Twitter (at @HunterFelt) Game 6 is scheduled to start at 8pm, but obviously, we’ll be back before that.
