LAD 5, MIL 1

Maybe it's just me? But the atmosphere around this series is odd...listless. The Brewers seem tired; even L.A.'s hitters last night felt...I don't know, not apologetic, but their rallies had a "[shrug] well, this is what we do" vibe. I can't really articulate it. Yeah, it's not "as fun" for the neutral fan when the teams start 0-2 at home, but that's not what I'm talking about. 

...Well, it's not all I'm talking about. And there was points-related joy in Mudville last night, certainly:

Betts 0
Freeman 2
Hernandez, T 5
Ohtani 1
"Picture" Pages 2

Chourio 4
Frelick 1
Turang 1
Yelich 0

Mookie and Yeli dragging ass here in the LCS so far (and Ohtani doesn't look great, lbr); hope everyone gets some sleep on the plane.

And speaking of snoozing...

64 Bauer Snoozical
62 Shotwell 1
58 Izzo and DGB

57 Winklepleck 1
56 Mectomy
55 Cameron Second
54 Quinn 2 and Bingham Prime

Everyone else (and their Bax Buncy regrets) after the jump...

53 Yuhan
52 Crase AL, AK Dos
50 Drake 2

49 MArbour 1 and Dunn 2
47 Mopsiukas 1
46 Fell 1

45 Green
44 Reid Alpha, Bauer Fun, and AK Uno
43 Cameron First and Reid Omega
42 Wonsetler 1 and Shotwell 2

39 Dunn 1
37 Wonsetler 2
36 Fell 2

33 The Estros
32 JArbour and MArbour 2
30 Tormey

28 Winklepleck 2
27 Drake 1
26 Brady and Mopsiukas 2

23 Bingham Emo
21 Quinn 1

18 it's-a me, SDB Prayer-io

Freddie and Teoscar the keys here, two weeks in; Betts and Naylor, too.

But everything can change in just a couple hours, and we'll see whether that happens tonight at 8 ET on FOX, Bieber vs. Kirby in Seattle. Jays better hit it hard, immediately and repeatedly.

Check my math, check my typing, and good luck...
