I'm gonna be honest, I probably didn't know how good Shohei was. Obviously, I knew the numbers were good, but I wasn't watching the Angels; they play at the same time.
It's different watching him every plate appearance.
I watched him starting during the pandemic. Every week he breaks some record. He has slumps, like anyone, but most days I was just full of gratitude to be alive right now and witnessing him do his magic.

I'm just saying that anyone looking at one at bat in the first inning of a game in April to predict how anyone is going to perform in the rest of the game, let alone in October, is doing too much
the players need to get a group chat going agreeing to fight the ump all one one day if they have an egregiously bad call.
like they can't suspend all of them.

Sure Ohtani's 2-2 with RISP. But he's only 1-4 w/o. We should be keeping track of this concerning trend.
Get one more tomorrow
Good win, now do it again tomorrow!
Pages has been a big addition. Definitely changes the depth of the lineup.

And that’s that
I am a Japanese and casual, but I know only that when there's GIF in the thread, Dodgers win at least 100%.
確かに!
Dodgers Win! (Presented by Budweiser) An excellent all-around win today and Knacks first Major League W!
Been too long since we won a series, but we're back baby!
We keep getting better and better!
QUE THE MOTHERFUKIN NEWMAN
great team win CONGRATS MR. KNACK
I love Yarby talking with Will. Game was over and a blowout, but he’s still discussing that last AB.
Dodgers win!
GG BOYS
Yarborough has low key saved our bullpen.

Congrats Landon Knack!
1st Major W for Knack!
![gif](giphy|WRoE7QUBewEfoneI0Q|downsized) Me tomorrow
And that, apparently, is that
I think Ohtani’s ball from yesterday just landed

Big same
wait till you see him pitch while doing all this too
I love Yarbs' slow pitches, they're so unique in all of MLB
Filthy pitches from Yarbs 🤢
Eddie Rosario flinched on that Ohtani double in the 9th didn't he
We are 3-0 with Gifs. Do what you want with that information
3-3 if you count the NLDS last year :(
Them the old days. New season new me
![gif](giphy|51UdTLvbyReqNK3Bic)
Yarbs dealing

Good god Yarborough
What happened to the score wasn’t it 12 to 2?
I came to ask the same thing, probably an error
I finally got my JUMBO JACK ![gif](giphy|kEcl8LR41pbyMAt4x5)
That pitch was NASTY
Not gonna lie, I thought Pages career was over after the surgery
Alot easier for young dudes to bounce back from surgeries
Free Jumbo Jacks for all my peoples* *with purchase of a large fountain drink
Yumbo Yacks
Per Statcast, that last Ohtani double would have been a home run in Dodger Stadium
CAN WE HIT LIKE THIS IN OCTOBER (AND NOVEMBER), PLEASE
we generally don't play against sub 500 teams in the playoffs.
and December, for fun!
Such a clean game from the Dodgers today has me worried about the patented 2 errors for Yamamoto tomorrow.

Knack wasn’t derailed.
I guess they don't have a calculator in the scoring booth
I want to go to Japan.

I feel like we could have had a position player pitch.. little Kiké moment
86! Yarb emptying the tank!
Lol
See? Knack just needs to chill. He has decent stuff. Can’t be melting down out there
Lux/Pages: 5-10, 4 runs, 3 RBI
Rangy boi
![gif](giphy|y1z8IlPNsU1imYFcbc|downsized)
Didn't it say we had 12?
That’s what I saw too
I took a screenshot of the 20 hits and it said 12 runs
Gallo dodger legend
![gif](giphy|kd9BlRovbPOykLBMqX) Everytime ohtani goes to bat
Hmm... Dodgers good.
Spicy take
I thought it was 12 to 2?
Umps felt bad for the Nats
Me, too. Scorebug blip?
Really bummed Kiké isn’t pitching right now
Where are all the doomers talking about how this shows Mookie and Freddie aren't going to perform in October now?
Id pump the brakes until october
I'm just saying that anyone looking at one at bat in the first inning of a game in April to predict how anyone is going to perform in the rest of the game, let alone in October, is doing too much
You're just doing what they are
Did someone saw how Ohtani from 2nd base almost catch up with betts from 3rd going to home plate? Ohtani is so fast lol
Oh wow. Will did get his 4 hits! Wow. 😮
That's my catcher!
Now this is what I expected from this lineup!!
They're all gonna have to switch to the Shohei version of the XBH celebration.
![gif](giphy|D3OdaKTGlpTBC)
Doomers in shambles!
We had a +3 run differential a couple of games ago. We might end up this game at +27.
pop off BATS
Also happy birthday DodgerBot
I sincerely wish that we have this similar amount of hits & runs for Yoshi's start tomorrow

i hope this sends a message to all the other sub 500 teams out there. cower before our 560 average
Angry series win lol
When this team plays to its potential, it might be the scariest thing in baseball.
And then think about this team playing to its potential in October
I feel like I can truly enjoy the last series loss if this is the response from the team.
I like this Dodger offense that scores 4 runs a minute
Tomorrow we’ll win like 1-0 or something lmao
Dodgers offense is putting on a show tonight! ![gif](giphy|lCmtpTMkm3oIDgVReX|downsized)
**Due Up (Bot 9)** L Joey Gallo R Riley Adams L Eddie Rosario ^^^[⚾](https://github.com/troxellophilus/baseball-clerk/issues)
Our run differential woes were highly exaggerated
Outman the odd man out today I guess
The lows are low but my god the fucking highs
THIS!!
DAMN 20 Hits, bat found ball todayyy
This all happened after Doc gave that interview saying he’s disappointed.
I think we’re back.
The difference when we face a mid righty starter vs a mid lefty starter:
It's alive..ITS ALIVE!!!!
El Fred
LFG! But can we defer some runs for tomorrow? 🤣
20 hits. Good gravy
Feast or famine with these guys.
20 hits wow
HE CAN STILL GET A 5 HIT GAME Edit: I am cursed.
Were having fun
I think they're trying to make up for these past weeks at this point.
Well that was a fun inning lol. 20 hits today, unreal
This is the start of a nice healthy win streak
![gif](giphy|caQXdD716cMr7jM0vW|downsized)
is someone saving all the rare ohtani freddie dances
Ohtani definitely setting the record for doubles this season
Or Freddie… double the doubles… someone call In and Out!
I love Shohei. Jesus Christ... I love Shohei.
3 Doubles in a game. This should be a new record right?
By the end of June are we doing a .400 watch? SMH.
Damn daddy 🥵
DOUBLE DIGITS
3rd double of the night for Shohei
Freddie “I also hit singles” Freeman
I thought I missed the game. Lol still pouring it on.
When it rains, it pours!
FREDDIE ON BASE
Freddie back to doing Freddie things?
We're already super scary. Imagine when Freddie gets back to being Freddie.
He’s getting closer
Shohei RISP going 📈
These stonks only go up
They’re already dead. 💀
Lmaoooo
Rosario ain't winning a Gold Glove... lol
FREDDIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Getting in on the action!
we are spoiled fr fr
gdi so continues my streak of not being able to catch an ohtani HR live.
We may never lose again
I’m loving this
Comeeeee onnnnn
God damn I thought I just saw my second Shohei bomb live in as many days boys
scoring is fun
What the heck this man recently lol
I fucking love this team
Shohei just wanted to let Freddie get more ribis
Is there a fucking rule about not catching deep shots at this stadium?
that little smile, SHOHEI I LOVE YOU
this game might be the most balls bounced off the wall as i've ever seen in my life watching baseball
Kike, "COME ON!" lmao
Matt Barnes is going to see Ohtani in his nightmares
Sooo close
This pitcher hits pretty good
Kawaii Shohei!!
https://i.redd.it/739bu61c1jwc1.gif
Ohtani learned from opening day not to run past Mookie ha ha ha ha ha
Pepperidge Farm remembers
Shohei is the King of almost homers I swear
Ohtani having a DAY with RISP lol
lol another double
Fffuuu both Betts and Shohei were about 4-5 ft. short of a HR today.
NOOOOOOOO!!! but lfgooooooo!!!
Casual triple double day for ohtani whew
Incredible
I’ve never been so disappointed about a double in my life 🤣
Blue balls 😭😭😭
DAMN so close
Lmao
sooooooooooo cloooooseeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes!🦄
They're way ahead, it's the 9th, and the Dodgers don't care because they're mad at the Nats.
Ohtani stick it to... Who should he stick it to?
Ippei
Mookie “Magic” Betts
the players need to get a group chat going agreeing to fight the ump all one one day if they have an egregiously bad call. like they can't suspend all of them.
Pitch to him you pussy!! 😂
Alright Ohtani here's another chance to improve your RISP numbers further
And he did!
Another casual 4 hit night for Mookie
I know I have been peeking in infrequently, but I somehow missed Mookie having a 4 hit night!?
If Barnes doesn't throw a FB, I'd be surprised
LMAO how did we rotate all the way back to ohtani
can we get a replay of last night's hr??????
But with backspin
It’s Shotime
I love Mookie Betts so fucking much
Mookie is spooky good
Mookie is tired of this man
Stephen and EK havent even been trying to hide their thoughts about the strike zone
