Derek Lowe (1-1) vs. Dan Haren (3-0).
COMMENTS: Oh, where to begin. Lowe has given the Dodgers three quality starts in four attempts, but has only won the game in which the Dodgers knocked in 11 runs. But the Dodgers who we just saw limp out of a 1-4 roadtrip could muster only one run in four of their last five games (according to Rick Monday last nignt, Larry Bowa felt "lonely" at the third base box, having been visited only two times all night). If we're 1-4 against the weakest Braves arms and the impotent Reds, it's not a stretch to think that Haren, who is on fire since coming over to the D-backs this year, will mow us down no matter what lineup Torre trots out there.
Even still, we'll be cheering along. Go Dodgers!
UPDATE: Andruw Jones is 10-for-64 this year. If he can bat 4-for-4 tonight (from the two-hole, no less), he'll complete his March Toward Mendoza! (yeah, right).

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 259 of 259Prediction: Jones strikesout again?
Wow, personal connections!
Get that—Andruw singles!
He plays for Magallanes in the winter league. He gave Aguilas a very hard loss at the La Chinita's game last November. He always pitchs well against Aguilas.
Hmmm, so now you have to reasons to root against him.
*blushing* i haven't met him!
Holy crap - he got a hit! HE GOT A HIT!!!!! WOOHOOO!!!! JONES breaks out of his slump! WOOHOO!!!!
Andruw Jones singled!
Jones goes 1-for-5 tonight: exactly Mendoza! .200!
Which won't lift his average all that much...
Furcal makes stuff happen, that's for sure.
on the bright side, if they beat the crap out of him, i can make fun of my younger brother, who's a Magallanes fan, little traitor...
wild pitch...
Anyone else's Direct TV HD going all blinky right now?
Exactly Mendoza sounds like a romantic comedy.
Ah, family intrigue.
Yes Steve, and now the picture is gone entirely. Still got Vin, though.
Damn, Furcal nailed at the plate.
Furcal missed that tag at the plate, but Furcal gets called out nonetheless. LAME.
And HEEERE'S SAITO!
That's right, Damon. We can't be stopped.
Saito's first career AB!
Thanks Erin, it isn't just me. I am getting images on the non-HD feed, though.
COME ON SAITO!
will saito swing?
I don't think Petit knows who he's dealing with. He pitching Saito like he's Bonds.
2-0 count to Saito. He should just lean in and get HBP (on the jersey, not the body).
Saito bats lefty, BTW.
Come on Sammy HIT IT OUT!
He has the barry bonds elbow protector. NICE
Catcher calls time and Saito throws up his arms, saying "wtf?" in japanese!
2-1 count. PUT ON THE SQUEEZE
2-2. Sammy, swing for the fences!
sports keeps us together and tear us apart at the same time, because we all have different loyalties.
my older brother is a braves fan so i guess it could be my turn this week.
besides, at the said Chinita's game, while my older brother and i were being miserable, my other brother had this satisfaction smile.
it's my chance, since this Magallanes fan is also a Mets fan, i'm praying Santana never pitchs against Dodgers...
Backwards K. That'll do, Saito.
Ah, man, he didn't even swing. Where is Don Mattingly when you need him?
We sure could use another run here.
Lakers win!!!!
Unfortunately, Karina, the Dodgers will probably face Santana this season. It's gonna be ugly.
Lakers 122, Nugs 107, final.
Bases juiced for Free James Loney!
Bases loaded. Insurance time!
Hey, the HD feed is back, Erin. Can I buy you a beer?
King James at home plate...bases loaded...
D'OH! Thank you, Justin Upton! E-9!
LOVE IT!!! THANK YOU UPTON!!!
And maybe that will be a lesson for Matt Kemp.
Bases juiced for Loney! Come on James!
Just embarrassing. We haven't had this kind of luck in a while.
Kemp has to jack this one, right over Upton.
AC, you are clearly on the satellite feed from Kazakhstan. How's your buddy Borat?
TWO HANDS. How am I supposed to teach kids the correct things if you pro's don't to it correctly
Questionable strike three against Kemp. He never gets those calls.
Okay, I'm out boys and girls. Good night, everybody!
Chris Young showing Jones up
picking bad habits...
Young looks like Andruw Jones up there.
on the bugs and cranks weekly rank, the only thing they say about the Dodgers is:
Beached whale found in centerfield
embarrasing...
Saito foregoes the fistpump but still finishes it out. A most unexpected victory!
Finally
Damon, re: Upton. Seems he just did you a service. "Don't do what Donny Don't does....They could have made this clearer."
Go Blue!!!! Dodgers win!!!
Go Blue, goodnight!
Linsday Soto invokes the hitting gnome!
Good night, all! Thanks for dropping by!
Soto says the gnome picture is laminated now; meanwhile, the boys in the broadcasting booth have just discovered the "Gnomar" pun. Good times.
Steve Lyons was never known for his quick wit...wait a second, where's my wallet?
