Game 110 Thread: Aug 7 vs. Braves, 7p

Chad Billingsley (11-6, 3.82) vs. Jair Jurrjens (9-8, 2.85).

COMMENTS: Last night's tumultousness helped to perpetuate the alternating win-loss pattern the Dodgers have been holding for the past seven games. Both starters are eager to prove they can go longer than five innings in tonight's rematch of last Sunday's matchup, Jurrjens without getting shelled and Billingsley without cramping up. And the bats are hopefully eager to prove they don't have to rely on walkoffs.

UPDATE: From ESPN's Beto Duran via SoSG reader Nic j: "Jason Schmidt to DL (shoulder) Tony Abreu up from AAA. Kuroda to start Monday, Elbert on Sunday." Thanks, Nic!

Oh crap, there's only two outs.

Orel said...

Nice job, L*BERT!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I think it just screws you up. You really can't prepare for something like that, though Broxton's been in many other pressure situations before this season.

Josh S. said...

Or sure, NOW I get 200 (and let it go unclaimed).

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Fuck

NicJ said...

why cant we gain any ground on the giants.

Kyle Baker said...

Fuck + shit

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

KHAN

Orel said...

game over

NicJ said...

and how is this guy better than schmidt?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Let me try that again.

KKKKKKKKKAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHNNNNNNNN

Nostradamus said...

So that's that.

Kyle Baker said...

This was a sign that Elbert shouldn't have gotten the start.

Orel said...

This is the same thing that happened to the Giants.

Josh S. said...

Wait...what the hell happened?!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Ryan Church gets his revenge.

NicJ said...

at least jmac looked good tonight.

Josh S. said...

Did he miss any bases going around?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Not much good came out of this game. Bills hurt his hammy, Broxton can't recover from a fan on the field, Elbert blows, and Ryan Church hates the Dodgers after they made him look like a dumbass. Though J-Mac did look good.

Orel said...

More two-out madness, by the way.

NicJ said...

we could easily be in an 0-2 series hole right now.

Kyle Baker said...

Do you still have that PGT draft from last night that you had to scrap after the walkoff? Just recycle that.

NicJ said...

not a great way for elbert to go into his first start of the year.

Josh S. said...

Sorry James, "California Love" is lame.

Josh S. said...

Did Elbert work long enough to ruin his start?

Kyle Baker said...

Inglewood always up to no good

Josh S. said...

Time for our two-out madness.

Orel said...

Should we be freaking out about Broxton yet?

Kyle Baker said...

He worked long enough to prove he shouldn't be starting.

NicJ said...

only 13 pitches so arm wise probably not.

Confidence wise, definately.

Orel said...

@Josh "Time for our two-out madness."

I.e., making the third out.

Kyle Baker said...

@ Orel:

Yes.

Orel said...

@DB:

Shit.

NicJ said...

broxton might be a little rusty, or maybe he is mad about the dodgers bringing in another closer.

Kyle Baker said...

Vin just made a good point. They could always just put Kuroda out there Sunday as was originally scheded.

Orel said...

TOD: 11:30

Kyle Baker said...

If he's mad about bringing in another closer, then he really is fragile.

Josh S. said...

Sherrill for closer.

Orel said...

MFPGT is up.
