  1. Dodgers fan here, thanks for showing up with a hangover this morning and letting us have 1 game. GG

  2. Super unfortunate but this team has struggled to complete the sweep all season, much less against a pitcher like Kershaw in the final game. I’ll still take a series win against a team that’s supposed to be far, far better.

  3. Can’t win em all and no shame losing to the Dodgers with Kershaw on the mound

  4. I think we take the series win and run. There’s a reason Kershaw is a HOF pitcher, sometimes he just runs you over. Still a very promising series!

  5. Inner-circle hall of famer doing inner-circle hall of famer things. But hey, we took 2/3 and Elly showed he is that guy so is anyone really going to complain about the series.

  6. Props to kershaw he was dealing per usual. Outside of the 3rd and 4th it wasn’t even that ugly? Bullpen did a nice job this homestand hopefully our starters can reward them

  8. All I know is we took 2 of 3 from the dodgers. Don’t care how it happened. Let’s go win another series in STL

  10. weekday games should count as “Friendlies” games and not in the standings.

  12. Great fun series. You can’t expect to give up 6+ runs a game and win all of them. The starting rotation is struggling and the offense cannot be asked to this everyday especially against a HOF pitcher like Kershaw. You give Kershaw a 3+ run lead and he will feast. No shame in that.

  13. I am also pleased I didn’t miss my bus back home.
