DODGERS' RECORD WITHOUT MANNY: 28-21
Clayton Kershaw (5-5, 3.70) vs. Jason Hammel (5-3, 4.21).
COMMENTS: It's the final countdown! One last Mannyless game — and none too soon, given how ineffective the bats were last night. The Dodgers have won Kershaw's last three starts, while Hammel has won five of his last seven starts.
Speaking of fives and sevens, the Dodgers have lost five of their last seven games. A win today would make them the majors' first 50-win team; a loss would start talk about whether Manny can save them from the threat of their first three-game losing streak.
I'm in the Vin Scully Press Box today, so look for some quotage from Joe Torre and hopefully some players. I'll be looking for a chili cheese Dodger Dog (or two) in the fifth inning. Oh yeah.

Nothing's coming up Milhouse.
Nice snag, Josh!
Troncoso in.
W00t!
Nicely done, Loretta!

nice shades, Mark. are they from the Tila Tequila collection?
There Hawpe goes again.
Sorry, I missed a couple minutes there and WHOOSH two innings went by...
...batting Hammel there with a chance to score the runner from second seems like a pretty weird call from Tracy. He must not have any confidence in his pen (which did pretty admirably two nights ago (until the 13th) and didn't even pitch last night).
I'm sure Tracy is asking himself questions right now. And answering those questions, with other questions.
At least Loretta has a good glove.
Nice play by Loretta there. Throws to second on his knees.
attaboy Markus!
SOMEONE PLEASE SCORE!!!!
Limbo Ausmus!
Hey Josh if the audio keeps going out, then you can goto the website and listen to the WIN broadcast (i'm doing it right now - interesting...)
Ausmus!
Ausmus basehit.
Please cash this in.
Wacky idea: Get a lead for Broxton to protect.
Good start, Brad!
Furcal is PHing for Troncoso next.
ok now draw a walk!
Aussum!
WIN is about 30 seconds after gameday audio (which is probably about 1 min behind realtime).
That was almost disastrous.
Martin in for Ausmus.
Russell's days off are like my days off. There's always something that needs doin'.
FURCAL DID IT!
GOOD NEWS EVERYBODY!
thank you Raffy!
FINALLY!!!
1-0 Dodgers!
finally!
SCORE SCORE SCORE!!! WOHOO!
Free caps in the press box!
LOL at Monday: "The Dodgers had not scored since June!"
(Not a criticism. I actually thought it was funny.)
Brox warming up
"(Not a criticism. I actually thought it was funny.)"
Once in a blue moon Monday comes up with a zinger.
That's only one score, AC.
Thank god our runners remembered to turn left at each base.
Use Forkal strictly as a pinch-hitter.
One run'll have to do.
"Free caps in the press box!"
Hey! You're not 14 and/or under!
AAAHHHH!!!
inning Ending DP.
they've all got the T Tequila glasses! you look dashing, Raffy!
So much for any insurance.
Brox must be dominant.
Big cheer for Broxton. He's becoming Gagne-esque.
Brox should be able to mow through Tulo, Spill of Borghs, and Een.
Orel's boyish good looks translate into a free cap.
Congrats!
Speaking of giveaways, I want the Tommy Lasorda replica Hall of Fame plaque on October 2.
Tulo goes down!
Siddown, Tulo!
1 Down
I lost track of the game.
Is it the ninth inning already?
"Orel's boyish good looks translate into a free cap.
Congrats!"
Everybody got them. But thanks!
"Only" 97.
Brox bringing the heat.
Brox on fire!
Spillborghs goes down!
It was just a blur
Crowd on its feet.
Brox bringing the nasty.
End this now!
I think the NLDS game 3 last year is where Brox turned the corner. He hasn't given me heartburn once this season.
Starting with strikes; always a good thing.
THE DODGERS WIN IT!
Down to clubhouse!
Huzzah!!! If you have a mesh cap, throw it to the sky!
One and done! We win a series again!
At least 6 up on the Gnats.
21 games above .500 and Manny's back on Friday.
I can breathe again.
Victoire!
Winning the series again.
Now waiting for Manny time.
Nice to see two struggling Dodgers help with the win. Raffy with the hit, Martin with the run.
MLASF: Sorry I got over excited - true one run, but felt like 3!
Will the PGT have comparative facts of where the Dodgers were 50 games ago and where they are now. . .other than in first place, I mean.
Awaiting some post game comments Orel!
yessir! series wins feel good when you havent had one in a while!
