Game 37 Thread: May 16 @ Padres, 1p

Chad Billingsley (3-2, 4.82) vs. Wade LeBlanc (2-0, 1.61).

COMMENTS: As Josh S pointed out in yesterday's PGT, the Dodgers are now 5-0 in Vin Scully-covered road games, and 4-11 when they're on the road and Eric Collins is calling the games. Hmm.

Today Chad Billingsley has the opportunity to put the Dodgers two games back of first place and (more importantly) keep Vin's road streak alive. He'll need to be on since Jonathan Broxton, with saves in the last three games (over four days), is likely unavailable; also unavailable will be slugger Andre Ethier, out with a broken pinky. (You know who will be available, though? The MSB.)

LeBlanc is 1-2 with a 6.47 ERA against the Dodgers (in four appearances), but is obviously pitching a lot better this year. Let's let all those Dodger fans who have worn blue this weekend in Petco Park go home happy, okay, Chad?

PGT up (you have to wade past MegaPiranhas and KFC Double Downs to get there, though; be forwarned).

Dusty, thanks for representing on games 1-2 in SD. Got any pix you want to send over?

Also, when's your big 4-Oh?
