Los Angeles Dodgers vs Miami Marlins 5/6/2024 As I've said before, my favorite in-game segment. Kershaw talks to Joe and Orel from the dugout during Buehler's first start in nearly two years. In case you missed it. I do not own this.
2:55 is why, for as much as it bothered Angel fans to hear it, baseball wanted Ohtani on a team like the Dodgers. For all the hype, people really only saw him in a few highlights, and most had no idea just how good Ohtani really is, thinking of him more as a novelty who could pitch and hit. He is that, but he's the best hitter in the game full stop.
I still can’t believe how close this franchise icon was to leaving LA and signing with Texas. I know he wants to pitch closer to home but it still would have been super disappointing.
Buehler was throwing batting practice. Nothing but straight/fast. Nothing turning his wrist/elbow hard. Miami hitting coach told the hitters early what was coming. When he started turning it over: strike out city. Tonight when the curve ball doctor throws tonight, strike out city.
