James McDonald (0-1, 5.87) vs. Ubaldo Jimenez (1-2, 6.00).
COMMENTS: From Dodgers.com:
Dodgers: McDonald tossed 4 1/3 scoreless innings against the Rockies on Sunday, just three days after pitching a scoreless inning out of the bullpen. McDonald was denied his first win of the season because he didn't reach the five-inning threshold. McDonald pitched out of trouble as he allowed four hits and walked three while striking out two. The right-hander will make another start against the Rockies on Friday, but this time it will be at Coors Field, where he has never pitched.Rockies: Jimenez struggled to maintain any consistency Sunday afternoon in Los Angeles. He was in trouble from the start and had only one inning where he faced the minimum. Jimenez has had two consecutive tough starts since his season debut in which he pitched seven scoreless innings and struck out eight. Against the Dodgers, he pitched 4 1/3 innings and gave up seven runs and seven hits. He walked four and struck out three.

old mcdonald gets a win
Maybe-aye-ey-aye-oh?
Love it, Nic J.
Bur remember, McDonald will need a run run here and a run run there. It is Coors Field, after all--where the confidence of promising pitchers goes to die...
This is going to be a challenging game for me to track, as I'll be back on the blackberry.
Help me, SoSG commenters. You're my only hope.
hey angel berroa was just pinch hitting for the yanks. Grounded into a fielders choice.
little league scoreboard for the day.
Red Sox-1 Red Sox-4.
We Won!
I know this is football, but why won't Rey Maualuga get drafted?
Congrats, Nic! What's your record at?
dropped both games of my softball double header, come on boys pick me up!
12-1
seasons half over.
yay! go raffy
looks cold in denver
great jump
so money
finally martin swings at a first pitch that looks good.
hopefully that gets him out of that funk he has been in
hopefully this helps j mac out.
wow
this HAS to help mcdonald
there ya go martin
not a bad inning, all that with no manny help.
im fine with that k. it wasn't a strike though
nice grab for Kemp
"Matt Kemp has become a wonderful center fielder!" —Vin
the bison on his horse
this start looks promising.
MLASF: Bengals drafted Maualuga.
yeah that happened on a commercial, quietly early in the second round.
Sucks for him, sorta.
ya he slipped way down in the draft
manny being matty?
damn raffy two for two.
Nic, 12-1 is mighty impressive.
yeah, were doing pretty well. we were lucky to get some good late signups after the initial draft. Plus, a good rotation doesn't hurt.
man j mac's change is looking really nice tonight.
Nic, you could be talking about the Dodgers.
Two good innings for McD!
under thirty pitches so far, not bad.
haha, Ned Colletti Jr. was my GM.
nice hit!
Kemp plunked. Stay calm, Matty.
lets send kemp here
ya baby
Poor Torrealba is doing everything he can to throw out Dodgers stealing bases. But it's not working.
raf leads off the first, second and fourth always a good thing
please dont walk the pitcher.
what did i just say?!
Listen to Nic!
reminds me of chad billingsly two years ago
Come on James, get in the game. You are getting a little wild.
Mcdonald gives me a heart attack
unraveling
at least he didnt walk him.
Darn.
james the umpire is not giving you that outside corner, pick another spot.
just like that james!!
Nasty curve gets Helton!
this is not fun to watch
What are the house rules? Is there a moratorium on Laker game score announcements to help out those of us choosing baseball now and basketball later?
walk the pitcher?
dang james, pull yourself together!!!
TV radar says 91 mph.
its gonna be one of those nights.
dammit
OZ, I'll refrain from Laker updates. Can't guarantee that others will, however.
Damn that Brad Hawpe.
troncoso up already? let the kid work through this.
Elbert and Troncoso can pitch in long-relief. Vinny left that out.
Whew. 4-3 Dodgers.
safe to assume no JB tonight?
no jb tonight, we're running out of room on the DL.
This Hudson fellow can hit.
yes orel, i agree
Shit, 4-3. Thanks you guys for keeping the bar hopping.
I don't get the 12-1 reference?
Odom with a reverse-layup. 15-14 Lakers
12-1 is the record of the little league team i coach.
close your eyes OZ!
wow mannys third k
wow intentionally walking ethier?
Nic j, keep us posted! We can blog about your victory tickertape parade!
apodaca
will do, im mapping out the victory parade. I was thinking around the jungle gym.
lets go j mart
Rancho Ardiendo for J-Mart.
the inverse of a pitchers duel...
Nice to see Martin settling down. 6-3 Dodgers.
Try this one on for size: Martin appears to be learning from Ausmus's clutch hitting.
Ow, Kemp fouls one off his knee.
Is Brad Ausmus the Greg Maddux of catchers?
a pitchers leud
Nic j, is the swingset reserved that day?
I'm going off you guys but it looks like J Mart has 4 RBI?
nice nic
Come on James, finish out this inning and you can be on the RECORD!!!
yes unfortunately it is, there is a swingers party scheduled for that day,
let him go five so he gets a decision at least,
Well, at least he is still on the record.
come on offense, we need you tonight.
Please take JMac out now, while he's in position to win
did manny just strike out again? i was watching the laker game.
Manny K x3
anyone ever seen manny strike out three times?
other than tonight
i think Bea Arthur's death is really affecting manny at the plate tonight.
thats how you hit the corner.
"i think Bea Arthur's death is really affecting manny at the plate tonight."
Comment of the Night!
beautiful inning
Nice, Troncoso!
haha, its the only explanation.
everyone already knows that a dodgers jersey is the first jersey he wore as a little boy, but his second was a Bea Arthur jersey.
major leauge debut, uh oh.
Uh-oh, rookie pitcher in for the Rockies. You know how we do against rookie pitchers.
Martin gave it a ride. Nice catch by Fowler.
not only that, this guy was an assistant manager at outback steakhouse.
the lady behind the screen just spilled her drink when matt fouled that off, hahaha
why do they send loney.
How slow is James Loney? He's like molasses running uphill.
Nice catch, Koufax.
he's slower than a commodore 64
There's Dinger!
Loney is slower than the last day of school.
does he just stay there all night?
he's slower than Andruw Jones on his way to the batting cages, or the gym.
right off the elbow, on a cold night, ouch.
Really? You bat Troncoso here?
ya i would have sent loretta up, but the bullpen is pretty bare tonight.
mmm, i think were going to need those runs down the line.
That's how thin the bullpen is.
how this is it orel?
Wtf why did we bat troncoso with a risp and a one-run lead?
I almost hope we lose this game so we can teach Torre a lesson.
(Arm falls off.)
its so thin it you could take it for communion
thats the best i could give you.
haha, maybe torre should read "The Man Inside of Me"
great outing for troncoso
kb24 is not letting the lake show lose tonight
So thin Kate Moss just ate it.
haha, you win.
prediction: Manny does not strike out
at least no strike out
Bottom of the seventh goes without a run...all right, I guess that's why we have Troncoso. We'll see.
Get sone runs, dodgers!
i hate utah.
Nice running catch by Ethier! Prop-props to Tron-tron.
Matt Belisle! It's like dessert for the Dodgers!
who is gonna do the dishes tonight?
Insurance, please.
who is gonna close it out tonight? colorado is at the bottom of their lineup.
insured? By Survival?
I cant take those runs.
More Tron! Why not?
Wonder if Ohman feels dissed.
dingers back in the saddle again.
damn, that one scared dinger.
jubila-tron!
Dodgers win! IN YO FACE DINGER
Tron!
Game Over - Tron should be the MVP of that game. Great job! Go Blue!
the pen is so thin that tron just got a save.
Can we get a post game thread picture of the "Chapelle Show" Tron rather than the 80's sci fi movie Tron?
PGT is up.
