The only thing that would have made this GS better was if Vin was calling it😪 however I did hear his voice in my head say "It’s a high fly ball"
They included Vin by name in the on field interview. To all that watched it you saw baseball history my friends. First GS walk off of any world series.

F'n special right there.

And by the way Freeman belted that thing high into the stands. Happy for them.

… I actually did see the game tonight and the walk off grand slam..:. I guess I should’ve worded my post something like how did that happen???… I also saw the Kurt Gibson homerun…I guess that was 88???… Will this home run, crush the Yankees… Like Kurt Gibson‘s Homerun crushed the Oakland A’s…Hmmm… Maybe not… But you could see that it took some of the wind out of their sails as they left the dugout🤷🏽‍♀️

I thought after inning 11 or whatever. Haven’t watched in a few years. They put a runner on second base to shorten the game. 🤷
What do I know. I’m not a band wagoner. Just watching cause it’s on and rooting for the home team. Lol.
That’s only during the season. They don’t have that in the post season.

What a game!!!!!

You were saying 🤣
There is always a first for EVERYTHING. 😛 The question if they can pull of 4 wins. 😝 Briung on the smack talking. The funny thing is that I am not a spots guy. That is the wife and son. I am just killing time and enjoying the smack talking. LOL

BTW, will be in Havasu for the end of the series. I am confident that the Dogers will not be able to seal the deal.….so party in Havasu to see the end of the series. 👍

Yanks seemed like they left a lot of runners stranded. Didn’t get a count.

Dodgers left more. The Dodgers proved they could hit off of the Yankees bullpen but struggled with finishing the deal. The Dodgers also struggled getting HR's, they hit 7 deep, 5 made it to the edge of the grass in the outfield, one hit the wall and one went out (the GS). If the Dodgers wouldn't have left anyone stranded they would have had 7 or 8 on the board in the 9th.

Yankees bullpen is good at keeping the hits in the park, the Dodgers need to just chip away at the hits, singles and doubles.

The Yankees won't count injured Freeman out anymore.

I was the ONLY Dodgers fan in a Yankees sports bar last night. When the walk off grand slam happened…….. you could have heard a mouse fart echo for 3 blocks……… It was awesome!

I barely got out of there with my life! LOL

My poor wife is a Yankees fan. She had a rough night.

I've been a Dodger fan since I was a little kid, and man...that was a moment for history for sure. I had a feeling that Freeman was gonna at least drive a run in, but holy crap did he launch that ball! The fan that got it will probably be on the local news today down there in LA.
I hope the rest of the series is that good, and I really hope our boys pull it off...it ain't gonna be easy, these are two tough teams.
