I wrote that wrong.. i meant against all the playoff teams they had a losing record*

What don't you understand. SF IS a playoff team and the Pirates had a WINNING record against them this year. Do you understand now?

Guess Brandon Crawford is better than Cutch then?

Their record against playoff teams this year is 22and 25
I'll take that every year

The Pirates offense wasn't good enough but they scored the fourth most runs in the NL?

The one game thing really isn't indicative of much of anything. I'd still take Pittsburgh in a 7 game series. All it takes is a great pitching performance and SF got that from Bumgarner.

Clayton Kershaw really didn't show up for a postseason game. He crapped the bed. He's a B pitcher. Not an elite player. Gave up 7 runs to an average offense that was 23rd in the league in runs scored. This one game defines him as a player, his whole season is diminished because he was awful in one postseason must win game. He's a loser, he's a B player, he can't show up in a postseason game and pitch well.

I mean, that's the logic of some, right?

Somehow in Konjos warped mind it will be logical. Couldn't have asked for a better performance to make that goofballs asanine thought process look silly.

Konjos would you like to pick another player as your best player/ MVP
Kershaw chokes in every big game.

Just going to mention that..... But hey, he's only a "B" pitcher in playoffs
