Hiroki Kuroda (10-12, 3.32) vs. Ubaldo Jimenez (18-6, 2.75).

COMMENTS: With the upper rack of the NL West bunched together tighter than sphincters at a purity ball, the Gints, Pads and Rox are looking to take advantage any way they can. The slutty Dodgers have cooperated, giving it up to SD (3-0 against L.A. so far this month) and SF (4-2). (I hope they at least bought us a few drinks beforehand.) If the Rockies don't do some major scoring this weekend, it's their own damn fault!

How the hell is Pmek so high in the lineup?
Errot is shaking things up before handing the reins over to Ylgnittam.
Where's our lineup, skip?

This team went to hell when Zerimar left.
Toireht sounds like toilet. HAR HAR
Batting 6th, CF...that's about right.
But Neeebs, you'll never be a Gold Glover. One too many Es.
THANK YOU!

I just want to say that it's an honor to be leading off for this proud franchise.
C'mon, Greg! I posted the lineup already! What's your take on Lacruf, by the way?
Headed to the Yard soon. I'll try to take a pic from the home plate area and upload it if AT&T cooperates.
Have fun dry-humpin', Dusty!
(Not that anyone has earned a dry-hump lately.)
RT @dylanohernandez: Tim Wallach said he would prefer being on Mattingly's staff to managing in triple A.
Wallach as the bench coach would keep Donnie on an even shorter leash.
I support Josh's lineup. Let Adoruk lead off and play short while Lacruf pitches and hits in that fabled "second leadoff spot" that AssuRal loves so much.
Lecruf? Sacre bleu!!
*sulks in the clubhouse*
Following the press conference on DT anyone?
Nah, I'll check out the highlights on the pre-game. Off to by booze. There is going to be a rowdy bench tonight.
OK Spank, no drinking in the bullpen.
The locals always ask for leftovers.
Don Mattingly quote from the PC:
"I think maybe I sabotaged his second half ... our offense since the break. Sometimes you think you don't quite know what you're doing out there."
Now we know.
so. . .
New manager next year. . .
so. . .
MATTINGLEY IS AN IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I BET HE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO MAKE A LINEUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!
DIE DIE DIE!!!!!!
Padres already losing 8-3 to the Cards in the fourth. Nice of them to put up a fight here.
@Dusty: have an awesome time tonight!!!
P.Ditty still a no show. Got your lesson plan ready. Better sharpen that #2 cause your going back to grade school.
Epale everyone!
In my seats now. I walked by Wide Eyes. You have no idea how small he is until you are right next to him. I could use him as floss.
Hey everybody!
Um. This could be going better.
They can win this game!
Kemp triple makes it 2-1...
Ellis ties the game!
Tied it up. WOW!
Mrs Dusty: that's funny that Ellis got a hit.
quick poll:
does anyone misses Russell Martin? at some moments? at all?
KKEMP got a triple? Well shut my mouth.
@ Karina
Sorry kiddo. Not me. He means well though.
Epale y'all
We've got a tie game eh? This could be a very interesting evening.
I really really want the Dodgers play for .500
Ely's hair almost needs a washin' like Timmehs
Wow, I can't believe we tied it.
*pees in MLASF's Bigelow Tea*
Here's our chance to score.
*sits next to Spanky on bench and pilfers his booze.
Angels: 3 ges under .500 and already eliminated
Padres losing 14-3 in the ninth
Giants losing 1-0 to the brewers at the phone
@karina
I miss '07 Russ more than '10 Russ.
Personal Foul. Encroachment by MB on Spanky's beer. Half the distance to the tap line. First Down.
@Mr C we can all agree in that, but I'm specifically asking about my son in 2010
@Spank
After further review no foul was committed. You said booze, beer doesn't count. MB does not drink beer unless it is sheer desperation.
@karina
I say yes, but he's still got a lot of work to do to get back some of that early glory.
@Sax - Thanks for the update
Pods getting butts kicked and Brewers up on Gints
GO BREWERS!
*sighs, wondering why it couldn't have been like this all season
Delay of game.
I don't trust Mattingly.
Beer Status - Belhaven Wee Heavy
We are an apathetic bunch. No one said a thing about this latest score.
I'm ready to ship Kuroda back to Japan for some shark fins.
@Spanky after all the love Meanie gives you, can you share some of your booze/beer/whatever with her?
@Mr C I know he will :) he seems to care
Blogger seems to be acting buggy again...what gives?
I hope this game is a slugfest
I can feel the hate and surliness from this thread all the way here at DS. Thanks - it's cold and the hate keeps me warm.
a slugfest from both teams. Yes. I'm aware Ubaldo is pitching but they used to own him.
DB, you are missed. Feel the love. With each run scored the rise in surliness is increasingly palpable.
Well, looks like I made the right choice going out with the family tonight.
@ MB
Anything you want I'll give ya.
@ Karina
I'll give you a slug
@Spank
I know you will baby. I love you too.
@Karina
New profession in life - couples counselor
Don't strikeout now that I'm watching KKemp
Weird, a comment I posted about 5 - 10 minutes ago just showed up. WTF?
Blogger is also surly
ELLIS IS THE FUTURE OF THIS ORGANIZATION
Thanks, Spanky. By the way, how's Papa Spanky doing?
@Meaniebreanie you made me laugh!
Close game, ladies and gents, winnable game!
I agree with Karina. The opera's not over till the fat lady sings.
Papa Spank is doing great. Unfortunately Papa and Mama and Brother and Sister Spank are driving me mad.
I'll agree with the ladies about the game.
Damn, I'm whipped
@Spank
Dysfunction junction. That is why they call it family.
CarGo, get a hit ♥
Spanky, we established long ago that you love to be whipped.
I could not have fucking said it better myself MB.
@Spanky that's a real family! I'm glad Papa Spanky is driving you mad, it means he's all right :)
@Meaniebreanie @Spanky I was going to say it was impossible to resist to the combination of our charming ways.
Come on blue, it's time for a few hits and runs.
@Karina@Spank - I look forward to the day we all meet. Karina by far has the biggest journey of all. Could there be another SoSG fest in the future?
There has to be another SOSG Fest. I was not prepared for this years but i will for the next. Word of warning though I'm wilder (in a good way) in person than on the net.
1 run down
Close game again, boys and girls
Yeah, we score!
@Spank, It strikes me that most of the people on this blog are the same way.
Yah I really hold back and it's funny because I'll reread the comments and I ask myself did I say that, knowing I wanted to say worse.
Can we not give up anymore runs for fucks sakes.
What's up with P.Ditty, man. I've been smacking myself all week.
I know I'm late, but I do want a future SoSG Fest that I can attend and meet all the snarkies I can.
I think he is one to quietly watch from the sidelines.
Kemp striking out? NO!
254 Ks and counting....
Karina's new son going 3 for 3
Another double for Ellis
ELLIS IS THE FUTURE OF THIS ORGANIZATION
That's a lot of whiffs.
@Spanky he has to come a long way to become my son, I'm not easy :)
*gives MB a hot foot in dugout*
*MB ignores it cuz she knows you are trying to get the best of her.
@ MB
Too many callouses on your foot to feel it is what I think
Where's Waldo I mean Dusty?
@Spank
1)You obviously don't know me as I go for regular mani/pedi's. No callouses here.
2) Dusty's at the game.
It is a sad state of affairs when Brox is pitching the 7th
The Dodgers are a sad state of affairs :(
You ain't lyin'
Mr. C - glad you're here. It's been fairly quiet. I was afraid that we had run everyone else off.
God damn it, Brox! can we find you a pitch in the strike zone that won't get hit to Victorville?
@MB
Science has proven that I am impossible to offend. Never you worry.
*shakes head*
blow this team up.
I'm not sure how much more of this I can take.
Holy Shit! Replace Broxton with Sherrill
NONONONONONONONONONO
Hells No! Unfuckingbelievable
@MB
At this point, I am really just watching slack-jawed as the train wreck unfolds in front of me.
Just when you think you've seen the worst something gets added to the carnage.
at least they scored some runs this time.
Good lord! Jay Payton is still around?
at least we are screwing over the giants in the process.
Well, at least we don't have to play the Giants anymore. I hate padding their record.
I want to give up watching the Dodgers this year, but what happened to me with Chick Hearn I have to ingest all the Vin I can get.
@MB:
I go for mani/pedis regularly too. But I'm only the bank. My 9yo can't afford her grownup habit.
Is it me, or does anyone else have a difficult time watching these guys. I mean...it's not even fun anymore.
@Neeebs,
Too funny. Just wait, her grown up habits and tastes will increase in both size and expense.
Wooo! We chased Ubaldo!
Wait, what?
This is hard to watch so why do we do it? Is it the hope of a better outcome or the fact that we are truly twisted, tortured souls?
Actually, if it weren't for y'all sharing my misery, I probably wouldn't put myself through it.
OMG, we have Rancho Arrediendo (or whatever)
The pessimist in me says infield fly or strikeout
If we don't score Avatar change is in effect FUCK STUBBS
Is this a strikeout too, Neeebs?
RANCHO STRIKEOUTIENDO
Right Here Kemp 3 and 0
I stopped breathing
Crap.
I cannot take this anymore. Goodnight all.
well, at least we loaded the bases. That's something.
Crowd slapping five at Dodger Stadium because of a Dodger FAIL.
FUCK!!!!!!!
What a strange world we've come to live in…
@Spanky:
I'll I can say is that I'm Roller, a High Roller baby.
Like I've been saying, It truly is a sad,sad state of affairs.
Jay Payton is still around?
...
...

DAMMIT
Xanadu!!!!!!!!!!!
I Quit-DESCENDENTS
@ Neeebs
The Movie?
We are the NL West's stepstool. We help everybody up.
Well, almost everybody. Maybe next year, DBags.
Bases loaded with one out back there in the seventh, and Beard Ks and Kemp grounds to short...it's just embarrassing.
Who is our hitting coach, anyway? Fire him!
@Spanky 8:48p: there will be another SoSG Fest! Fear not...
RT @dodgerthoughts: RT @DODGERSUSA: FYI: Due to contract between MLB & FOX, Dodgers -Rockies game tomorrow will on a tape delay.
I assume a "be" should be in there somewhere.
Bean CarGo Tron!
CarGo, get a hit!
I root so he will be the hitting champion of the NL
WHY THE FUCK IS TRON STILL ON THE FUCKING TEAM AND HOW THE HELL IS HE PITCHING BEFORE FUCKING LINK?
Man, our pitching is so fricking bad, it's pathetic
Mr LASF: before you ask about Troncoso, why don't you ask about Sherrill?
Here we go Peeps. 3 more outs till my last game. Wait, do we play the Madre's again.
Was that play at first safe or out? Looked safe to me from here. Either way I'm giving ump all sorts of shit.
I don't like anyone on this team anymore. It's just a matter of principle now.
Has Theriot had a meaningful hit in September?
So, they scheduled a Saturday day game, knowing full well FOX would black it out?
Who knew they'd end up doing us a favor?
@Sax - Loaded question. Technically, nobody has had a meaningful hit all September.
Because the Costa Mesa Angels of Newport Beach of Aliso Viejo of Dana Point of Fountain Valley won, our loss will let us leapfrog them in the reverse standings. 13th overall pick, here we come!
What does One call 4 walks in one game by a batter?
Golden walking stick?
E's left ankle is bothering him
No takers on my safe or Out question?
The last time I see Loney in a Dodger uniform. Good luck in Tejas.
Nobody cares at this point.
@Dusty Baker on the replay, it looked safe.
Barba!
si se puede
Hurry up, Texas Municipality Road. Close the game already.
i feel like im being set up
yup, sure was.
WE LOSE!!!
Holy fuck, Matt.
That pitch was closer to the strike zone in Anaheim.
HaHa! My last image of the Dodgers 2010 season is a KKemp strikeout.

Goodnight My Love
@ Everybody Else
Ciao :o
@Karina
Thanks for your take!
Was anyone else freaked out that the picture for this post kinda looks like a burning cross?
Belated 200
@Stolen Monkey
I hadn't noticed the cross at first glance, but I see what you mean. I'm certain that the author of the post didn't have any intention on any burning cross imagery.
Wow, I just noticed how it kinda looks like a burning cross, too. I'm sure Orel didn't intend to post that sort of imagery.
I'll tell him to be more careful when posting pictures from his summer vacation...
Touring with the Tea Party didn't help Orel, did it?
