2016 Senior League Division Series: Game 1, Dodgers @ Nationals

The Brooklyn Traitors vs. the Division Rivals. Who do I hate the least?

Sigh. I guess it’s the Nationals (95 – 67) because my cousins from D.C. like them a lot and and my hatered for the Quislings of Chaves Ravine is deep and undiminished by time.

Despite a weaker Regular Season record, the Dodgers (91 – 71) took 5 of 6 against the Nationals. Stras berg will once again sit (flexor mass strain, whatever that is).

The.Dodgers will be starting Clayton Kershaw (L, 12 – 4, 1.69 ERA) who is just phenomenal. He spent July and August out with injuries but has made 5 appearances since then. Max Scherzer (R, 20 – 7, 2.96 ERA) has an impressive Regular Season record and an ERA that would be impressive against anyone but Kershaw. If the game goes as expected it will be a pitching duel into the late innings.

I’ll point out that today is my travel day and I’ll be on the road until the 9 pm game between the Giants and Cubs.
