Chad Billingsley (9-4, 3.12) vs. Josh Banks (1-0, 3.38).
COMMENTS: Joe Torre acknowledges Manny Ramirez may not be 100% (despite his home run yesterday), so will Torre still start Manny today? If so, the Dodgers will be looking for Manny to spark the offense (but hopefully won't be waiting around like a bunch of slack-jawed yokels).
This is the first time Banks has faced the Dodgers. With the Dodger bats already uncertain and facing an unfamiliar pitcher in a spacious park, and with the bullpen showing signs of fatigue, Billingsley will be expected to pitch deep into today's game.
Manny and Chad: I just want to tell you both good luck. We're all counting on you...to prevent a series loss to a team ten games under .500.

LONEY MAKES LIFE WORTH LIVING!
Can't they just put a tiny rubber band in place of MSB's hammy, like the kind we used to have to wear on our braces?
I'm seriously concerned over the possibility of riots and big trouble downtown on Tuesday. I'm not leaving the house.
Eighteen hits, four of them home runs, including one from the pitcher, and we still have to play in the thirteenth inning.
Andre just missed it.
I have to work downtown. I guess I could call in and spend the day, instead, voting for Matt Kemp.
Gold Glove King James, right?
DB - Does your work go anywhere near Staples? If not you might be safe.
So who will be the temp-closer today? Tron? Weaver to go one more?
Riots Erin? So if people damage cars at a Michael Jackson funeral will they turn into panthers after?
Seriously, I would try to avoid downtown at all costs. The problem is that hundreds of thousands are going to go down there, and only 11,000 or so will have tickets to get in. So people are going to be angry and frustrated and all that. Not a good thing.
And god forbid anything else happen in L.A. that day. We have a shortage of cops as it is.
My Gameday is waaaaay behind!
YAY! that's Big Game KIng James!
Nic J, that's hard to say. Each rioter will choose his/her own path. We can't assume the outcome will be so black and white.
Hee hee, Erin.
LA Sports Fan,
I actually work nearer to Koreatown, so it shouldn't be that bad. It's just that traffic backs up every other corridor so even getting there the back way from Pasadena should be a pain.
My two direct tv televisions are two outs apart. I'm behind the times in my living room!
Poor bills.
Sax, I hope one of them just told you that the Dodgers win.
Thank goodness.
Weaver gets the win, but he also deserved a save
Got out of jail free today, SoSG mates. I'll take it, though.
Ugly.
Weaver might be player of the game, instead of Loney.
Drinks on broxton tonight.
Whew! Thanks SoSGers for keeping the faith
I stopped following at the top of the ninth. Did I miss anything?
All right, I'm off to find other ways to procrastinate. I'll stop by tomorrow to shake my head in confusion over the puzzle, and then I'll see you all on Tuesday.
This VIP tickets comercial voiced by manny makes me laugh every time I hear it.
Have to get out to buy dinner for my dad. See you later for the PGT.
Thanks for the amusing afternoon, folks. Made sitting around with the flu more tolerable.
WOW 434?
"this man needs to be taken to a hospital"
"a hospital what is it?"
"its a big building with patients..."
