Post-Game 139 Thread: Sax Gets His Lucky Seven

DODGERS 7, DIAMONDBACKS 2

Not that this is all about me, but didn't I tell you the Dodgers would get seven runs today? Even better, they got the win. Inspired by my bold prediction, Manny Ramirez and James Loney hit back-to-back jacks in the second to rattle Max Scherzer, and we never looked back from the three-run frame. Vicente Padilla gets the win, which got even more secure when we added three runs in the eighth and ninth frames, and the Dodgers kept pace ahead of the winning Rockies and Giants, still 3.5 and 5.5 GB, respectively. 23 games to go.

I will try and write more later, but right now, I'm riding my clairvoyant high.

Clairvoyance is one thing. I look forward to the day when not only can we see the future, but we can control it.

In the mean time, I'd be happy to be able to be a Fire Starter and have the ability burn shit down on cue.

Not bad, young Sax. You show some promise.

Nostra shows up, is that a bad sign for our season?

Steve Sax said...

NicJ, I think Nostry knew you would ask that.

While riding a segway.

I saw a preview for that 2012 movie. I think we can all blame Nostra for making that thing possible. Didn't anyone in Hollywood see "The Day After Tomorrow?"
