Speaks more to the fact they don’t trust dominguez that they went with the kid 

Yes.

Hindsight whatever but don’t agree putting Kirk in there 

Hoffman was the obvious move 

Knowing Thomson he’ll never pitch again these playoffs unless they’re up by 8

Hope we get great Alvarado here and not wild Alvarado. 

Kid sucked tonight. Thanks for blowing it.

Could Hoffman not started this inning?

Potential for 3 games in 3 days. He goes more than an inning you don’t have him tomorrow. 

Should have been Dominguez.  Getting fancy cost us.

Not even hindsight. Nobody thought that was the right move.

Should have been Alvy IMO

Still feeling good.

Gonna likely have to score 3 runs to win this.

Yes but some would say it could’ve been a good move

If we win today who cares about tomorrow?  Bad move by Thompson.

the slider wasnt breaking pitching coach needs to tell him to stop laying it in there

Not that inning.   All righties at the plate.   You don't waste him in the 7th against righties... 5, 6, 7 in the order.

Kind of feels like the fact they went Orion speaks to how they feel about dominguez right now. Right or wrong 

WOW!   Got the DP even though they weren't looking for it!

That’s huge.

Moot point now - happy with the decision lol

Easy peasy 

Such a quick inning... Alvarado can go back for the 8th and still be available tomorrow.  That was like 3 pitches.

Holy F i can’t believe it’s tied at 1 after the 7th. 

Fing TV went out!!!

People will crush Topper for this, but the Stott AB hurt em more. They would’ve been set up so well if he took that pitch

Great job by Alvarado. That was huge.
