Derek Lowe (7-8, 3.97) vs. Odalis Perez (3-7, 3.99).
COMMENTS: Well, lookee here on the mound. Odalis Perez, Dodgers bust of yesteryear, moseys back into Chavez Ravine sporting an ERA not too much off his opposing starter. Perez hasn't ben back since we unloaded him to the purgatory that is Kansas City in 2006, but he did fare well against us as a Brave back in the day (2-0 in three starts). Lowe, on the other hand, has been on-again-off-again, but more of the "off" since the All-Star break. Can he keep it together and beat Odalis tonight? Or will Odalis gain strength on the mound from seeing another Brave-turned-Dodger over in the Dodger dugout, who surprisingly has a larger weight problem than his own?

Kemp with a two-run bomb to start things!
hello
Martin follows with a double. This may be Odalis Perez's best performance at Dodger Stadium ever.
I once thought Odalis Perez was going to be elite
Hello. Hello again.
By the way, I saw 2 Cars videos today at the gym
Neither was Hello Again.
Hittin' good in the neighborhood. Dodgers open 3-for-4 with 2 xbase hits.
Just felt like ripping off Applebee's.
Nomar with a sac fly. 3-0 Dodgers.
Actor Jeff Daniels is up. Oh wait, that's Casey Blake.
Your gym shows videos? Is it like a special gym channel?
Each machine has a tiny TV with many channels. There's at least 8 or 9 video channels.
Hola!. Eric, by any chance, did you see the video of:
Who's gonna hold you down
When you shake
Who's gonna come around
When you break
You can't go on
Thinking nothing's wrong
Who's gonna drive you home tonight
Have you seen Dark Knight?
I don't like this trade much. I guess it's just a rental.
Last week and i think i'll see it again tomorrow.
I'm guessing "Magic" was one of them, EK.
Do I got a hold on you?
Epale Karina! No, neither was that song...
Let's hear it for Ben Orr!
We're seeing TDK in IMAX tomorrow.
One was Magic, where's he's walking on water in a swimming pool being admired by various odd characters
Ah, enjoy Orel. I won't ruin anything for you, I'll just say Martin Lawrence was great.
Lowe cruising! Retires six straight.
Jesus Flores really likes me. However, he hasn't lived to his hype so far. The Nationals hired 2 catchers so he could polish his craft on the minors, At the end, he earned the starting position.
Does he top his performance in "Rebound"?
Orel - he was good, but not that good.
The other Cars video takes place in a girl's cartoon-cutout-type bedroom, I can't remember the song though
Do you imagine a situation where King James is benched for Garciaparra and Ethier for Pierre?
How did people receive LoDuca at Dodger Stadium?
Rowand with the 2-run RBI single. Giants 3-Dbacks 2
Thanks!
Belliard doubles. Zimmermann up. One out.
Hey sorry Karina to disappear there...and sorry I've gotta disappear again.
Hope your 2nd avatar candidate wins another one tonight!
We all want that, Eric. Have a great night!
Flores with RISP in the last 10 games: 7 for 14.
However, Lowe gave him a very sweet K!
Hello all, looks like we are hitting tonight.
"You might think I'm crazy", but the dodgers might win this game.
They will and i feel there's really a shot to be in the playoffs.
Nomar homars! 4-0 Dodgers!
From what I could tell, Lo Duca was indifferently received at Dodger Stadium. Maybe Erin can confirm.
Holy smokes, Lincecum has K'ed 13 so far.
Blake doubles! making me to swallow my words...
The SF-ARIZ game will be broadcasted as soon the Mets and Cardinals are done. 11th inning.
Vin: "If it was Maza, you'd really be thinking squeeze" with Blake at third. Guess Luis made an impression on Vin!
Hahahahahaha. It seems Maza only made an impression with Vin and Manny Mota.
Jones K with man on third. Surprising
Wow, Berroa doubles Blake in! 5-0 Dodgers! We love ya, Odalis!
Lowe helping his own cause! (I love that expression). 6-0 Dodgers!
That's actually a very sweet expression.
I had to kiss Coper a lot. He deserves it
The Dbacks just tied the game. Men at the corners. One out.
Wow - let the good times roll, but 6-0.
Opps, up 6-0
Dbacks just untied the game, up by one run.
Lowe keeps looking at his hand like something is wrong with it - hope it is not a blister...
AMAZING play by Ronnie Belliard. We'll give 'em that one with a 6-0 lead.
Karina, I kiss my dog all the time. He doesn't like it but I can't help myself.
Pete Orr at bat. Wonder if he's related to Ben?
I kiss Coper all the time, too. The difference is Coper absolutely loves it. The Dodgers are giving me a reason to do it :)
And my brother just walked in, giving me a cup of win before he gets out. Love the males in my life.
Pete Orr had a couple of amazing seasons with Aguilas del Zulia.
Gotta admit, Nomar looks slick at first.
No. he's not. He's canadian and was member of the 4th place canadian baseball team at the last Olympics.
Garciaparra is, after all, a two-time Gold Glove winner at shortstop, which is a very difficult position to play.
By the way, Pete Orr spent quality time with the Braves in the last two seasons, so he's reuniting with Jones.
Oh my God, the announcers at Strike Zone Channel said the Dodgers want Halladay. That movement would cost Kemp, Kershaw and maybe Ethier with Lucas may.
I do think Halladay is the best MLB pitcher this season.
Blake starting the inning with a single...Jones is next.
Former newscaster Jann Carl is in the seats behind home plate. Not sure why I recognize her.
Sorry I'm late, was working on a post (NPUT); but at least I missed Andruw's GIDP to erase Blake in the sixth. Yawn. Can't we unload Jones before the deadline?
If not Sabathia, why Halladay? Sabathia will cost "only" money. Halladay will cost too many players.
And don't forget about Maddux. MLB Trade Rumors is great for this kind of stuff.
If that happens Sax, it'd be a proof miracles exist.
Maybe i should start lighting candles to St. Anthony of Padua...
Lowe lets it rip! Milledge has to make a great play!
Strike Zone Channel ended its programming with a video of the today's best plays using "Shake It Up".
Guess it's The Cars day.
I'd love to see Maddux on a Dodgers uniform again. I think i've said before they should have given a contract.
D'backs win. Thanks, Giants.
I would love to see Maddux impart some of his wisdom to Kershaw.
Will Lowe go for the CG tonight?
Gameday says he already has 107 pitches.
Not only Kershaw, i think Bills could use of his wisdom, not counting any pitcher who can receive a 40-man roster call in September.
Ozuna GIDPs. Ah, I'm not seeing much of a premium over Maza...
A four-inning, six ER performance from Odalis Perez. Now that's the Odalis I remember.
Way to go, Lowe, 8 innings of shutout ball!
I don't want Lowe to be traded, i've read about it.
This game is a rarity, great pitching and a pretty good offensive, if they can keep up like this, we could dream about playoffs.
If the Dodgers hang near first place, don't look for Lowe to be traded.
It's all well and good against teams with losing records. Let's see if we can do it against the real teams.
You've got a point, Orel. If the Reds and Nationals series were any indication, the Dodgers would be the best record in the MLB.
Hey, ah, Dodgers bullpen? We'd like to win this game, please. Stop letting those pesky Nats on base.
By the way, thanks a lot for the link of MLB trade rumors link.
Wade must not have plans tonight.
Orel, with most of our remaining games against NL West teams, I believe the vast majority of games left are against teams with losing records...
Our favorite links are in our sidebar!
karina, are you referring to my Jones link that just went up top?
Except the Dodgers are crappy against the rest of the NL West.
Dodgers win! Good job, boys!
Whoops, you're referring to the mlb trade rumors site. My bad.
And it's all over! Dodgers win 6-0 on a two-hit shutout! Nice!
Hadn't seen that link yet, Sax!
Let's go blue!
Coper's avatar is working, is it Erin working magic at Dodger Stadium or maybe both?
Get that dog his own house! A Coper-cabana, if you will!
