@ByJackHarris How long before Treinen goes on the IL? I’m going with Sunday.

@ByJackHarris Pages gives the Dodgers 2-3 good weeks every season. The other 20 weeks he hits .205 and strikes out over and over again on balls on the dirt.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@ByJackHarris Ohtani, great as he is, ain’t Superman, and the Dodgers should have realized that he wasn’t gonna leap tall buildings tonight and pulled him at the end of the 2d inning.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@ByJackHarris Hey Jack Harris, have you ever seen a play like that to end a game?

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@ByJackHarris LA equally good at putting runs for Toronto on the scoreboard as for themselves.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@Dodgers Too bad you didn’t tell Snell.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@BillPlaschke They won’t make it to October. 1951, 1962, and now 2025.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@ByJackHarris Jack, you and other journalists are doing your job, and your questions show how DR is either clueless or lying. How can you have no complaints after your team suffered arguably the worst and most improbable loss in MLB regular season history? This is a team that is collapsing.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@Dodgers just suffered what probably was the worst loss in MLB regular season history, going from 1 pitch away from a no-hitter to walk-off loss. And this just in: Tanner Scott unanimously voted winner of the Ralph Branca award for worst closer in Dodger history.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@Dodgers This just in. Tanner Scott unanimously voted the Ralph Branca award for worst closer in Dodger history.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@ByJackHarris This just in: Tanner Scott unanimously awarded the Ralph Branca award for worst closer in Dodger history.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@ByJackHarris Worst regular season loss in MLB history since Harvey Haddix lost his perfect game in extra innings.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@Dodgers Scott keeps putting the L in LA.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@ByJackHarris I was at the game. When the bullpen gate opened in the bottom of the 9th, I told my daughter that Scott had blown the lead in his last outing and would fail again. Sure enough, he lived down to his reputation.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@ByJackHarris Skenes is out of the game, and the Dodgers are playing against garbage players, like Ramirez, who they cut last year. And what do they do? Continue to play like a team that should be on winter vacation in 3 weeks.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@ByJackHarris Jack, You can write your flash article about the game now. Game over.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@ByJackHarris How much is Snell making? More than Skenes. Dodgers play with all the skill of the Rockies and all the passion of a ChatBot. But Snell, Mookie, Freddie, and Teo all cash those big checks even while they embarrass themselves on the field.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@ByJackHarris The Dodgers had a good April and May. Since then they’ve hardly been better than the Pirates. When they play in the Wild Card round, they’ll be eliminated. Dave will keep thinking that Conforto will somehow get it together and Kim will suddenly learn to play at MLB level. Ha!

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@ByJackHarris Another blow for sure but the LA Rockies are a deeply flawed team with a horrible record of keeping players on the field. You’re a pitcher? What’s the over/under until your first TJ surgery? You’re a position player? That minor injury will actually require 8-10 wks on the IL.

[Chester Pach @ChetPach]

@Dodgers Nothing like watching the Los Angeles Rockies.
