Chad Billingsley (0-1) vs. Greg Maddux (1-0).
COMMENTS: Billingsley's first start of the year didn't go very well against Arizona, so we'll look to see if he can rebound in today's matchup against the Professor. After last night's uncommon outpouring of offense from the Dodgers, we'll also be waiting for the last two stalwarts, Andruw Jones (batting .105) and Russell Martin (.162), to finally find their strokes at the plate.
UPDATE:
The lineup:
Furcal, SS
Pierre, LF
Ethier, RF
Kent, 2B
Loney, 1B
Martin, C
Jones, CF
DeWitt, 3B
Billingsley, P

Kemp is out. AGAIN. What does he have to do?
Sleep with Joe Torre's wife?
kid hits a home run at his second at-bat in days, he still gets benched...if torre was willing to sit pierre at the beginning of the season, why not sitting jones?
what is he waiting? some power? kemp, coming from the bench, has one more home run than jones, who has played 11 games as a regular...
sorry for the rant, i just had to vent...
Kemp needs to "Greg Brock" Juan Pierre. Besides Juan Pierre is a career 0.364 hitter against Greg Maddux! There's no such thing as the law of averages to suggest he might go 0 for 4 anyways.
FREE MATT KEMP
When can we stop blaming Billingsley's troubles on that early-season rain delay?
This is going to be a looooong game. It must be 100 degrees on the field.
Chad is dealing! Throwing a lot of pitches but 5 K's so far.
Was Vin just defending Pierre's work ethic?
Greene robs Martin of a hit and game-typing RBI. Shit.
Lakers in front of the Spurs by 12 to start the 4th quarter.
CHP in to start the 6th. Anyone know Chad's pitch count?
John Peter!!! wooo!!! Could have had Kemp just PH there instead of Young...hopefully Matt Kemp will be freed here next inning.
I think I just saw Andrew Bynum wearing an earring. That's depressing.
Lakers destroying the Spurs, BTW.
90 pitches through 5...not very efficient.
Time to bring up Kershaw, too.
Too early to bring up Kershaw. Don't want his arm to fall off.
Ethier is swinging for the fences every AB now.
If we lose 1-0 I will kill someone. Don't know who yet.
jones? pierre? colletti?
I was thinking Jones but there's so much of him to kill. Frankly I don't have the time.
DeWitt gets a dunker! (Wasn't that a Dr. Seuss book?)
Should have PH Kemp for Pierre. Urge to kill...rising....
This Juan Pierre experiment crap just has to stop, now.
This is costing us runs, games, and Matt Kemp's development.

Here we go boys, 9th inning comeback!
Fuck!
so kemp is running for loney...it'd better get him running, hitting and catching *sigh*
loney's streak is twelve games in a row...
As Matt Kemp said last year "Without us [young guys] would there even be a team?"
Maybe they're hoping John Peter can up his trade value a bit for a trade to make room for Kemp? That's the only explanation I have.
