Chad Billingsley (5-1, 2.30) vs. John Maine (3-2, 4.24).
COMMENTS: Well, that was unexpected. In last night's 11-inning tilt between the Albuquerque Isotopes and the Buffalo Bisons, the home team had five hits and the visitors had five errors. I mean, who makes five errors?
Anyhoo, the NL East-leading Dodgers put their ace Billingsley against the Mets' Maine man tonight. The Dodgers, amazingly still undefeated at home, continue to dominate at Dodger Stadium. Juan Pierre has stepped up in place of Manny Ramirez, who received a shocking lifetime ban from baseball by current commissioner Bart Giamatti. In other news, the world is flat.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 300 of 300I got #100 and #200 tonight, but not really.
Wassup Chris?
Nice, PC.
I think Jerry Manuel is gonna smack Church around after the game.
BEARD POWER! 5-3 Dodgers!
BEARD!!!!
The bearded One!!!
Blake 3 run HR!!!
CASEY AT BAT!!!! HR!!!
Not much, Orel. Looks like I'm good luck tonight!
And Bills is on the on-deck circle.
"She is gone!"
Bills staying in now
Bills singles!
and another hit!
Anyone think we should move him up in the order? Or if it aint broke...
Bills continues the party with a single...
Everything's coming up Milhouse!
I have no idea how Blake has so many HRs hitting in front of the pitcher.
Da Beard is better than Spocks Beard.
It's so crazy that Blake continues to lead the team in HR from the 8th spot. It just makes no sense!
JP singles!
so
many
double
plays
Geez Raffy. DP ends the inning.
OK Bills - one more good one!
Plain and simple: he's hitting the ball well, making proper adjustments at every at-bat. It;s not the position on the lineup, it has more to do with his inner skill, imho, of course.
I agree, Karina. Without any protection behind him, Blake has to do it all with skill. A great hitter.
somebody in the front row behind the plate stole Dan Shaughnessy's hairdo
Well, when you use no protection, you better have a lot of skill...
I'm out. Too much excitement and stress for one night.
wow big spot for young Brent - be tough, kid!
Kudos to Bills, he made much better than we all expected (due his performance early in the game)
agreed, Karina. I hope he can build on it, especially the ability to "find it" after not having it
Careful O-Dawg!!!
damn. great effort, O. i hope you are ok!
crap the last thing we need is an injury
we already have one important player on the "DL"
It looked like he was pulled more out of precaution.
I hope O-Dog's removal is purely precautionary.
crap. tough spot now for Belly. You be tough, too!
for 40 more games.
Damn, that fall looked bad. Hope he is ok.
Watch out, Sheffield might fist off another bloop single for an RBI.
He looked like he got off the field without too much agony.
Corkscrew! TV radar says "only" 91 mph.
yessir! thank you, Belly!
Wow, the Tigers released this guy?!?!
rowr
Can someone please tell me why we started to have someone sing "God bless America" at every game before "Take me out to the ballgame?"
i say leave O out of the lineup tomorrow, give him a day or two to feel right again and move Dre up to third, maybe move Matt or J Russ up to 4th
No! Why must everything I love run away?
hey castro is batting .409
what a clean up hitter.
Dodgers taking after the Yankees with GBA.
Will Belly pitch the 8th?
Yay! My affectionate use of "Belly" is catching on!
"Orel said...
Dodgers taking after the Yankees with GBA."
Yeah, but why?
If we can get through the 8th cleanly, the Mets have the bottom of the lineup up in the 9th
Now we play the Wade-ing game
cmon, Cory!
Whew, only a bruise...
Vinny: O-Dog bruised his left-shoulder. He is day-to-day.
OK, I'm lame (for many reasons).
GBA?
Wife has commandeered the TV for the AI final on DVR and I'm too lazy to go to the other room.
rbnlaw - i'm in a similar boat. Switching from Idol to the Baseballs.
Adam Lambert went a big step down tonight in my humble book.
DDS,
The wife loves her some Kris Allen and he seems to be owning the final.
Corey prove me wrong.
ARGH, damn David Wright
It was Dancing with the stars, Lakers and dodgers for me...ugh
2 on no outs. Thanks Wade.
He doesn't have IT this year.
Sounds like Church had his whole family there to witness last night. Oye.
Martinez up - Sombrero Watch.
C'mon, DP here.
I may be waaaaaaay late with this, but I finally get the gag with the game thread. 5 errors in the second paragraph. Just like the Mets from last night. Took me forever, but I got it! Go Dodgers!
The sombrero is being tailored....
Golden Sombrero?
Woohoo! DP!!!
Inning-ending DP!
I think he'll be roaming in Buffalo soon
I'll take the DP
"Yeah, but why?"
Basically the same reason Journey's "Don't Stop Believing" has become the eighth inning song. They're trying to create these musical traditions.
"I may be waaaaaaay late with this, but I finally get the gag with the game thread. 5 errors in the second paragraph. Just like the Mets from last night. Took me forever, but I got it! Go Dodgers!"
HALLELUJAH
Hey an K Rod sighting!
Didn't want you to think your well thought out game thread was a waste Orel. =)
take some pitches, guys. get a taste of what this guys throws for later in the season
I though Kemp got a hold of that, but just a lazy fly ball.
Thanks, Q7!
cmon, JB, finish this off!
Close...
OK, GBA= God Bless America.
Yeah, save it for Memorial Day, 07/04, Labor Day, and 09/11.
Every game makes it lose its luster.
this...
Finally, FURCAL!
A lot of people share your opinion, Rbnlaw.
2 outs on 7 pitches. Could it be?
I just saw Snorlax in the crowd!!!
Broxxxy
OUT!!!
yes Yes YES!!
A 10 pitch save. Very nice.
Great game! Go Blue!
agreed, Alex! this one was very satisfying
7.5 up on the Hated Ones.
Beast Mode out of his head.
The Beard in control.
Brox with a quality save.
Life is good
