Again , Perhaps the Jays deserve some credit. Afterall , they have been hitting good pitching the entire playoffs. Why does the narrative have to be about LA's failures as opposed to just giving credit where it’s due.... Jays have outperformed the Dodgers as a team
Absolutely correct and good point

Unfortunately this is the narrative most of the time when a team like the Dodgers, WS fave most of the season and defending champ, is on the verge of defeat

I think the initial shock is when a decent size fave loses (Duke vs Houston Final 4 great example) and then eventually everyone realized how well the other team played to beat them

Not sure who wrote this or when but the X factor in the above was Snell wasn’t the Snell everyone expected

Monumental swing

Obviously there has been other factors like the Dodgers offense slumping and their bullpen being shaky (except for game 3) but no one predicted two horrible Snell outings
I think the main culprit for the Dodgers being on the verge of losing this series and a major reason I think they will is because all of the sudden they can't hit. We're talking their 1-4 hitters not being able to come through and that's a major problem. You have to tip your cap to Toronto they've proven themselves to be the better team but as we all know the best team doesn't always win.

Honestly I don't think the Dodgers were the best team in the NL this season, I actually thought it was Philadelphia but they choked against these Dodgers which opened the door for LA since I never thought Milwaukee was the best team in the NL despite their record being better than everyone else's.

To me the Jays are better than the Dodgers because they have done one thing better than them this postseason and that's hit the ball. This performance shouldn't be too shocking since the Blue Jays have scored the most runs since the All Star break which is when they really took off and made their run.
