The Diamondbacks are all kinds of awful, so a sweep here actually isn't at all a longshot, especially with the first game done.

Everyone knew from the start that the Diamondbacks would suck, and that it would be a two team NL West race with the Giants and Dodgers. So why punish them and do a high-profile firing while everyone's watching baseball?
Asshole move right there by Tony LaRussa.
The classy way to handle it would have been to fire Gibson and Trammell in November shortly after the World Series was over.
I hope Gibson gets a job in the Dodgers organization where he belongs. Admittedly most of his playing years were with Detroit, but his career-defining moment occurred with the Dodgers.
I read that Gibson's extension kicks in if he makes it to the final game.
Oh. Makes more sense, then.Quote:

He got 2 more years if they hadn't fired him. They fired Trammel too, but he stayed to manage the last 3 games. That I don't get. If you don't want me any more, fuck you, I'm playing golf.Quote:

Mark Trumbo homered (385 ft.) to deep left, A.J. Pollock and David Peralta scored.
