The Iceman Cometh

Camilo Doval may have thrown one (or four) too many sliders to close out his 2021 season, but the fact that he was on the mound in a tie ball game in the top of the 9th of game 5 of the NLDS against the Los Angeles Dodgers is incredible.

In a year full of improbable outcomes, Camilo Doval being the pitcher Gabe Kapler calls to the mound in that situation is probably the zaniest.

Zany because I (and probably a lot of other people as well) didn’t know who Doval was at the start of the season.
