Crew in 5. Other series goes 7. Coin flip but I’ll give the edge to Boston

Too early to say the Brewers are going to win this series, but if they do, Yasmani Grandal has to be their MVP, doesn't he?

I doubt Brewers win. Dodgers are just too stacked.

Still only 2-1 but Crew look like the better team so far.

They are the better team. Hype doesn’t win baseball games. The team playing the best does.

Going in the Crew was steamrolling baseball. The Dodgers couldn’t handle their own division. Overrated just like the Cubs were.

We saw this with Philly in 2008. Just came in and dominated. They lack a legit ace. They have that and there would be no disrespect to what they have become.

Nice to see yelich about 2-20 as opposed to anything that hit his bat was a base hit or homerun the last month of the season

Cant stand the brewers approach and dont think its viable to win multiple playoff series....too reliant on multiple guys out of the pen every night to be on their game

Was that the right call in the Astros game on the nullified homer?

Tough one but I would say no. IMO, that was a HR. I'm not sure what MLB wants those fans to do except run away from their own seats I guess.

I see an analyst on TBS saying what I have been saying: Why does the call on the field matter when it comes to replay?

An ump (or ref, as this argument is the same for all sports), 100 feet from the play, seeing it once at full speed from one angle makes a call.

Once it goes to replay, we have an ump who sees it from several angles, with slo-mo and freeze frames. Why do we not want the latter to simply make the call?

Why does "conclusive evidence" come into play? Why does the call on the field factor in at all.

Why not just say - The official in the review booth has the better view, and technology to help. MAKE THE CALL.
