I have literally already watched that final AB at least 30 times now, and it will never get old.

Sean Casey gave the most amazing breakdown on that final play and the throw from the outfield, the cut, the throw home, and the whiff.



It's these moments that networks, in this case MLB network, are rewarded for having former players on, who can see these minute details that even some of the best fans may never have picked up on.

Anyone watch last night? Meant to since Glasnow was pitching. Anyone see it? I still root for him to do well.

Yes, be gave up the long ball. Trowing up to 99mph. but needs more ball movement. Dodgers were timing it

Yes. He was better than his first game, but it was still very similar to his Pirates days. He needs another pitch. Too long ball prone.

I agree that Glasnow sure looks like the pitcher he was in Pittsburgh a couple seasons ago. I still think he overthinks at certain times when he is on the mound.

Ummm, no. Kershaw has a regular season track record, Cy Young type seasons, many of them.



From how he's pitched against the Dodgers, I'd say Glasnow is the new Archer.
