Dodgers-Giants game still on despite L.A. earthquake
play for next year. Unless you can trade Jeff Kent and Juan Pierre for Brian Roberts...
Suiting haiku for this time of year.
Pierre, LF
Kemp, CF
Ethier, RF
Kent, 2B
Loney, 1B
Blake, 3B
Berroa, SS
Ardoin, C
Johnson, P
Not liking the bottom third of that order, but Martin's gotta rest sometime.
Tonight's lineup haiku:
Pierre Kemp Andre
Kent James Blake and Berroa
Ardoin then Johnson
John Lackey has no-hit the Red Sox over 8.
Anyone in LA getting this in HD tonight?
Opps - there goes the no hitter.
Pedroia singles off Lackey in the ninth.
No HD for me.
unravels in a big way too - Youk with a 2 run homerun off of Lackey.
Are you LA area guys all right and safe?
Hi Karina - I'm not an LA area guy anymore but my parents live there and they are fine. My mom didn't even feel it. My dad did, but it wasn't too strong where they live. Thanks for asking -
Yes Karina, thanks! No damage here, just a swaying house.
Kemp was safe...not matter what the San Francisco announcers say (stuck with them, second night in a row)
Glad, you all guys are OK. Thanks the Lord.
Hi, honey, I'm home! Did I miss anything?
Ardoin with a rettible throw to second, but Wynn isn't that fast to reclaim third.
Godawful play by Wynn. He basically gave that one away.
I'm getting this in HD. Just checked.
Weird that for some reason Vinny is half as loud in HD. I have to turn the volume on the TV up all the way.
You're a very lucky guy...
Are you watching on MLB.tv, karina?
0-0 after four. Didn't expect that.
Gotta love the 3-6-3 (?) DP!
Five scoreless!
On MLB Extra Innings.
Loving this game, i hope Coper works his magic.
Orel, could you take your pup to the doctor?
"The Giants and Dodgers, baseball's answer to push against shove." —Vin
Yes Karina, it's not arthritis or an injury but for some reason he has pain in both rear legs. Prescribed anti-inflammatory medication and will take him back next week.
Pup is super-groggy because of the sedatives they had to give him to take the X-rays.
I love Vin, i'd wish i could get to listen to him.
Poor Pup! well, at least it doesn't seem something chronical, my get well thoughts for him...
Wait a minute. Jason Johnson has held a major league team scoreless through five?
Am I dreaming?
Old Man Kent still has some gas in the tank! Nice play!
Thanks, Karina.
Make that 5 1/3, Rob.
Orel, does your pup have hip dysplasia?
Six scoreless!
And now six. Yowza.
It's such a waste Cain and Lincecum have to play with that team. You've got to keep an eye on your nephew, Orel.
I'm pretty sure that was one of the conditions the vet ruled out, Rob.
3-0 D'backs lead the Padres.
Kemp gets a leadoff single up the middle! Suweet!
Kemp starting the inning with a single, maybe trying to convince Torre he should hit leadoff 'till the end of the season or Furcal gets back, whatever happens first.
It's hard not to like Lincecum, although it always looks like he's going to throw his arm clean off.
Ah, okay. A lot of breeds have problems with hip dysplasia, especially nordic dogs. Not that I have any idea what kind of dog your pup is.
I thought Kemp had stolen second...sorry for my lack of attention, i'm multitasking as usual...
Kemp heard me, he stole second!
Kemp heard you, Karina!
Rob, I got him from the shelter so I'm not sure. But I've been told he's a pit-chow mix.
Damn you, Rich Aurilia!
You can do it, King James, teach him!
WOOOOOOHOOOOHOOOOO!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHA! "LIKE A LETTER FROM HOME!"
JAMES RBI!
"Oh boy is Matt Cain mad at himself. He hung that pitch like it was an apple on a tree." —Vin
King James heard me! a two out, RBI single!
Dodgers leading for one!
Oh, bless your heart, Orel. Not many people would take home a pit mix.
The shelter labeled him as a German Shepherd mix, probably for this very reason, Rob. But I would have taken him anyway. He's got a very sweet disposition.
Wow, a Dodger fan did the right thing!
TOTAL break on that call. I would have called Loney out and the inning over.
If anything, isn't it a ground-rule double? Men on 2nd & 3rd?
Dogs are the most loyal, caring and loving creatures and if you give them love, they'll give back that love multiply by infinite.
A lot of "pits" are relabeled American Stafforshire Terrior mixes for that reason, too.
It's all about the owner.
Blah!
American Staffordshire Terrier.
Can't. Spell.
Umpires with the middle ground decision, King james is out at the plate, but Blake gets the third base.
Announcers say son Martin is up.
I don't think the fan was even aware that he did the right thing -- once his hand touched the ball it was dead, but he was looking the other way. IMO it was still live when the Giants' LF fielded it.
Looks like we got a break there. 2-0 Dodgers.
I subscribe to the Cesar Millan school of dog training: exercise, discipline, then affection.
It was Berroa. K's to end the inning.
Martin was next to Berroa...at least that's what they said.
We have never given Coper much discipline but he turned out to be polite. My parents paid for a trainer but neither of us liked him to give Coper much discipline.
Lewis bobbled the ball out of the field of play. Hence the ruling.
Brian Giles breaks up Doug Davis' perfect game. Whoopee.
Coper looks like a good boy.
Th-th-th-th-th-that's all folks.
Sorry got here late, saw "the play" was that ruled fan interference or was the ball out of play. If it was fan interference, then was the fan kicked out? If it was not interference, was the fan kicked out anyways (and pissed about it?)
When is someone going to tell the Miller Lite ad folks that the Los Angeles Dodgers have five pennants, not six?
The fan should not be kicked out. He correctly backed away from the ball and didn't touch it.
Yeah, but did the ushers kick him out wrongfully anyways? That would have been funny (and sad).
No mention of the fan's status, AC.
Wow, our back up catcher sort of sucks. Wonder how Carlos Santana is doing in Cleveland.
Supposedly the Boston fans were booing Manny today. Would you rather have Manny or PIerre?
The fan clearly wasn't even paying attention to the play on the field until the ball actually hit his hand, at which point he pulled away. I just don't see how management can kick him out.
Essentially a gift run for the Dodgers.
Hey Pierre got a hit!
and stole a base!
I was watching the entire game, and I never once heard a boo for Manny.
No reason for the Red Sox fans to boo Manny specifically; the whole team got shut down today.
Oh, and I'd take two months of Manny in exchange for getting rid of Pierre. Who just missed a play that Manny wouldn't have come near to.
Angels manhandling the Red Sox gotta warm the cockles of your heart, Rob.
Nice play by Berroa with a rare clank by James.
Brox in for the four-out save!
Loney should have handled that ball from Berrora. Nice pick by Angel too. I don't think Nomar could have gotten that one, good knee or not.
C'mon big boy! 4 outs.
I was watching the entire game, and I never once heard a boo for Manny.
Dodgers.com says they might be looking at Mark Loretta or Mark Gruzalanik (no, I don't know how to spell his last name).
D'backs getting the breaks today too. They lead 3-0 going into the 9th.
Well, that was different.
Hey, it's Lasorda!
Rob: Oh, I didn't watch the game, but the espn baseball tonight guys were saying there were boos.
G-r-u-d-z-i-e-l-a-n-e-k.
Thanks Rob. I thought it was spelled W-A-S-H-E-D-U-P, but he is hitting a hell of a lot better than most of the veteran dodger players.
Guess the DBacks win, so therefore the Dodgers WILL win as per seemingly the last 2 weeks.
Grudzielanek and Hollandsworth are 12-letter guys.
God forbid we should ever have sole possession of first.
Cha ching!
Dodgers win!
Brox gets it done! I like him building up save experience.
woohoo! Is Broxton the closer of the future? Dodgers win 2-0 Great game guys, Lets take the series tomorrow. Go Blue!
"Hollandsworth" is 13 characters long.
Dammit, Rob, now I'm going to have to remove him from my All-12-Letter Team.
There are only three players with 14-character last names: William van Lindingham, John Van Benschoten, and Jarrod Saltalamacchia.
Oops, William Van Landingham.
It sounds like you've been hanging out with Bob Timmermann.
