Randy Wolf (11-6, 3.22) vs. Ubaldo Jimenez (14-12, 3.52).
Hello, this is Kent Brockman. In sports news, the Dodgers are ending their season with a meaningless series against Colorado, since the Dodgers long ago clinched the division —
one moment, I'm getting a note from our producers —
What? You've got to be kidding. They lost three of four to the Pirates? And got swept by the Padres? What the hell is wrong with these ****ers? No, I won't watch my language. I don't care if we're still on the air —

@Mr. C - Yep
Rockies not warming anyone in the pen.
Tronny, where's the beard?
Boos for manny. Damnnnnnnn
RISP tonight 0-5
RISP since win @ PIT 2-26 (including tonight)
How many pitchers can say they struck out Manny Ramirez three times in a game?
Most wouldn't include Ubaldo Jimenez in that list.
@sd
Yipes!
wow on the crappy mlb.tv reception, i thought that was a double
Manny doesn't hit
ubaldo well ever he is like 1-12
Tweet from JoshS:
"Dodger Stadium PA played Yackity Sax after Manny struck out. Fitting."
Tronny, cut the shit!
And that is why you don't walk the opposing pitcher.
(arm falls off)
we've only hit one home run in the last week, and that was the semi-meaningless homer from Belli2 against the clincher vs the Pirates on Saturday
that was strike three! dammit
*whew*
We're playing with brann here.
@fb
The collective exhale, apparently.
@dusty
Too much brann and you'll get the home run trots.
Let's get some runs now. Maybe a couple of hits too while were at it.
Well, is it "phew" or "whew" guys?
Matt's on the .300 fence. He needs to get a hit.
Got a feeling about this inning. Baseball cliches follow...
Jimenez is getting up there in pitches (97)
Third time through the order
Jimenez is tired from running the bases
@db
regional dialect.
They just played a back in black / we will rock you mash up. Our own sax introduced me to mashups. It all comes full circle.
Come on, Matty!
a little of both? do we have to choose?
take the walk!
robbed!!
MLB Network replayed Finley's walk-off Grand Slam... 5 years ago today
Oh jeez.
Ball 4, Matty.
I saw SAFE, what did you see?
easy, Bison.We need you
Joe, tell him he's got some crud on his lip
I missed post 227 by 2.
And kemp is equally as pissed.
SAFE! According to the replay.
this is where James doubles with the ghost runner on 1st
This inning went nowhere fast.
From Uncle Owen's "twitter"
"I understand retired Stormtroopers become sport referees #JobsWithBadEyeSight"
Open the blast doors! Open the blast doors!
sheeeeit
OY VEY.
I don't know how much more of this I can take.
lotta whiffs out there.
stay with us Penos! it'll be worth it!
10 K's in 6 innings. Unreal.
When was the last fun game we had? Fun to watch, fun to win, great plays, confident pitching, offense always in charge, etc.? I don't count the random blowout win vs. a bad team. I guess back on that road trip where we beat AZ and COL 2-3 each, maybe?
ARGH
Good pitching and great defense are useless if they don't score runs. Guys, can you give us 2 or 3 runs?
here's Joe's new favorite...
@Mr Customer that was very funny!
@karina
I do what I can.
Lead-off doubles, however, are not.
what happened? why is Belli in?
oh - i missed the double
I hope Elbert is not on the postseason roster.
That's game.
BREAKING NEWS FROM JOSH S:
"Ate 5 dogs, a nachos, 3 sodas, and I have an unopened peanuts."
He's in the AYCE section and not paying retail.
dammitalltohell
I hate Tulowitzki :(
I think I've seen this episode.
aaaarrrrrgggghhh
I can't believe we are about to lose our fifth in a row. Talk about no momentum, going into the playoffs.
As the wild card.
agreed, karina - he's good but he isn't ready
@ Karina
"I hope Elbert is not on the postseason roster."
Me, too. But at this rate, I actually hope no one is on the postseason roster, except maybe FBR. Or hell, even FB.
I can't remember what winning feels like. Hell, I can't remember what scoring more than one run feels like.
I seriously can't imagine that tomorrow night's game will actually mean something to me. It was always going to be a victory lap kind of thing, not me on the edge of my seat kind of thing.
Plus it's team calendar night.
MLASF-
Is this what it feels like when doves cry?
i remember when we used to get big hits like that. I hope we see that again this season
And that's the ballgame.
@dustyBaker 9:33p: hey Josh S,is that unopened bag of nuts = a scrotum?
I'm sorry, but this loss, the first I've actually watched in a week, has me very shriveled.
Like a scrotum.
I really am out of curse words guys. I don't know what to say but Guinness milkshake where have you gone?
DB, my personal policy of not walking pitchers or swinging at ball 4 in the dirt would help us tremendously
Josh notes that he actually ate TWO nachos, not just the one. Point well taken.
@paul
It's time to get into the multi-lingual cursing.
Try Dutch and German. They've got lots.
We are dishonoring Tommy tonight.
i dont know where karina went, but i'll say it on her behalf: this game aint over!
@Dusty - I could just imagine Tommy's post-game rant.
"YOU GUYS MAKE ME SICK."
If we lose,I blame that horrible God Bless America twin set. They would have been awful as a solo artist; as a twin set, it was like double-stereo HELL.
In honor of Lasorda, can we dub this night bevaquesque?
i bet Josh's pockets are stuffed with jalepenos
@Fred's Brim here i am! biting my tongue game is not over, but i'm afraid someone calls me delusional
Lap still wet. Fans still angry. Hits still absent.
@Delino - You just described Kevin Federline's rap career in nine words.
Every word in German kind of sounds like a curse word. Like Troncoso sounds like a bad word in Spanish. The dodgers are a bunch of troncosos. I know that probably makes sense only in my depressed mind.
haha MLASF, post of the year!
Russ!!!
You know things are bad when Russell Martin's getting the big hits.
Russell....Hell yeah!
Let's get something going!
Road Loney!
See? game is not over!!!!
Whaa!
@FB - I do what I can.
@Paul
"every word in German sounds like a curse word."
Ain't it great?
take the walk!
Russ's homer made up for that shitty GBA rendition.
seriously, they could have done a harmony or something, no need for both people to sing the exact same thing.
eyechart! eyechart!
Mr C, you are such a glockenspiel
Pls let us clinch this with a HR off Joe Beimel.
If this game isn't over I will drink a king cobra milkshake.
C'mon, Dougie. Work the walk.
In German, a lullaby sounds like "Let's invade Poland!"
@fb
Du hast nicht einen sehr unangenehmen Geruch!
Eye-chart works the walk. Perhaps that will be his greatest moment as a Dodger?
haha the Eyechart Post-Walk batflip*
*patent pending
Paul said:
"If this game isn't over I will drink a king cobra milkshake."
Nice! *makes cobra sign*
I've had a Colt 45 float before, for the record.
Mr C, I have no idea what you said, but you, sir, have crossed the line!
This feels like one of those grind-'em-out innings.
@fb
Maginot?
There goes who? Hu?
that was ball four
Raffy keeps things alive!
Am I going to make a pitching change? you bet.
FICKEN SIE JA, GEHEN SIE FURCAL!
The robed(?),hand-cutting, lefty-handling, head-bobbling, sideburn-wearing reliever is in now.
C'mon, you shmucks!
Only Adam Morrison can make the fu-man-chu work.
Joe Beimel.
Great.
GIDP right here.
King Cobra!!!
@chexxum
"Fick du auch, Steiniger!" also accepted.
keep it going, you schmucks!
oh man, Tracy's trying for the "most relievers used in an inning" record...again.
Game is riveting. Dodgers fans hate all former dodgers. Beer is settling into pants. And everyone in here wishes manny wakes up.
@mr la sf, your k-fed comment literally rocked me with laughter. Ms. Sax liked it too. Well played.
Time for Manny to earn his paycheck.
Mr C, I had to look that up, and that's way too French for my liking
Outfield's deep. A shot to the power-alleys should score Furcal.
Delino-
If this goes into extra innings, and beer sales are stopped, you can always squeeze out your pants for that last half cup of warm Bud Light.
@Sax - Thanks for the compliment.
@delino, I missed a post, why are your pants wet with beer?
Dodgers, gehen Sie!
Glad to see the stadium on its feet.
Big hack by Manny.
just a single Manny!
Mr la sf, I'm still laughing. Despite the fact they're still losing and Manny looks lost.
If Manny would have made contact, the ball would be in my cactus garden.
wow
Manny's getting no lee-way with the fans, and rightfully so.
whiff
Wow, even the rich seats are booing Manny, not just the cholo seats around the edges.
Attention
Golden sombrero fitting in men's wear
DO IT FOR MARY HART
c'mon Bison
@FB
If there's a line being crossed in German, the Maginot is the first that comes to mind.
just sayin'.
fudge
There went that. Dammit, Manny.
JoshS sayeth (re: Manny):
"You can't spell FUCKKKK without 4 Ks."
So you are telling me there is a chance.
And don't try and placate me with this El Pollo Loco commercial. I'm fucking pissed off goddammit.
What's so toubling... Manny got the golden sombrero in like 15 pitches
Manny has 8 Ks in a row now.
K K K K K K K K
switching to the Johnny Walker
You can't spell Manny Ramirez without K.
Wait, yes you can! Then there really is no excuse for this!
@db
Jesus H. Christ! Is there even a name for that?!
Come on, FBR. Shut 'em down.
4Ks - golden sombrero
8Ks - golden shower
I hereby dub 8 straight Ks the adamantium sombrero.
Dusty... I'm way ahead of you
This is an awesome game. And agonziing
Flat Breezy's name is really George Sherrill?
(i kid)
FB-
I accidentally called Sherrill by his given name the other day, and Mrs. Dusty asked who he was and when we picked him up. She just went straight to FB/R after we traded for him, I guess, based on my references.
I think Broxton will pitch the 9th no matter what.
fbr dealing.
hehe Mr C I like that
The only way Andre's getting another crack at it is if the Dodgers can get a runner without erasing him.
Don't stop believing.
@MLASF
Of course! There has to be a man on for a true walk-off.
If Manny and Boras opt out during the off-season, my jaw will drop to the floor.
@DB: it still sound funny to me to say his real name. You may as well be talking about a senator from Indiana in the 60s or the custodian at your elementary school
@FB - He certainly looks like a janitor with his Youkilis beard.
@fb
Kinda sounds like a shop teacher name to me.
I am taking a shot of something for good luck. Ummmmm I drink my catholic Irish whiskey but take shots of my Protestant Irish whiskey. Bushmills it is.
That pitch was higher than Snoop Dogg.
patience.
Crowd watching with their hearts.
The crowd is trying to will fly-balls into being homers.
SO CLOSE
Saying Sherrill's real name makes it sound like he's in trouble. Like how my mother would call me by first, middle, and last name, ultra formally, when I was in trouble.
Everybody is swinging through 86-89-mph fastballs. Doesn't seem right.
Beard gets himself a golden sombrero.
blake looks a little rusty.
It rests on Martin to do something this inning.
It's a dead-end with Huston Street.
I got a feeling that the 9th is going to be a good 9th.
Trying to stay positive even if it physically hurts me.
At the very least, don't admit defeat! We have 3 outs.
yuck
I also have a good feeling about this 9th, and I'm the least optimistic person ever!
Smear some soft-serv on the plate so Broxton can find it, JMart.
This is painful.
Plenty of tulo is a puto chants in the stadium.
Broxton K's the side. Three outs left to score a run.
Ok, kids. Time to get busy.
Hey yo Rockies. I didn't hear no bell. One more at bat.
This is it. Either you make my attendance painful or relaxed tomorrow.
O-Dog, Thome, and Raffy
Let's take Huston Street to Electric Avenue, boys!
Time to hit the Street!
Time to get ill.
O Dog needs a single, Thome a walkoff and we can all pop the Cold Duck.
What's that time, Mr. C?
Stay on target o-dog
Ugh, two outs left.
FWIW, way to go Brox for getting those two key Ks
If O weren't standing 6 feet off the plate, he might have made contact.
We're not taking it to the Street.
