While the Dodgers are idle like Billy, NL West games of interest continue! San Francisco hosts the Diamondbacks this afternoon, with Madison Bumgarner (6-6, 3.06) dueling against Barry Enright (6-6, 3.73). I'd like to pick which one of these pitchers I'd prefer to prevail and improve his record, but it's six of one and a half-dozen of the other. Literally.
But I do hate the Giants. So there's that.
First pitch, 12:45p PT.

I get back from Tampa (Tropicana Field sucks, as expected), the Dodgers are off and I have no puzzle to occupy my working hours. I'm so confused it may drive me to drink!
@Jason: we only ran the PCS on Monday off-days this season. sorry!
And sorry you had to visit the Trop. I've been there too. Yucch.
A+ for this post, Sax!
Tears of joy!
@Sax - I blame Mr. C and his VORP season. Also, a lack of desire to do any work at the office. I guess it's midday drinking for me.
Also, I still rate the Trop above Shea, Veterans and Three Rivers. Though, to be fair, they did rightly demolish those atrocities to baseball.
Eyes Without A Face is still my favorite Billy Idol song. The 808 handclaps are the key. For some reason it's on a lot of a bar jukeboxes and I play it whenever I can
@Mr F: awesome, thanks for grading on a curve
@Jason: three rivers and veterans (and riverfront for that matter) were all pits (no pun intended). But Trop is in a bottom tier with Oakland-alameda and whatever-the-marlins-are-calling-it-today. The Trop is like Candlestick-bad.
@FB: a Roland player yourself, I presume?
Billy Idol - Rebel Yell
That one brings back memories.
@FB: I knew someone who thought that song was called "How's About a Face."
Why is Mark Reynolds bunting?
Dammit, I turn on Gameday and KFP hits a solo shot. 1-0 SF.
'Zona has two on with two out in the top if the third but I'm sure will choke it.
I'm glad I decided to leave today off the VORP calendar. My brain's pretty melted.
Called strike three, thanks a lot Chris Young
1-1 on a Enright sac fly. Two out and meant the corners for AZ in the top of the fourth.
Auto-correct strikes again!
Stephen drew grounds out.
OYSTER PUBES!
Josh @ 1:11: "Why is Mark Reynolds bunting?"
Trying to get his average above his strikeout number is my guess.
This is a lot like watching the scoreboard for Europa League action.
Not very interesting when you don't have a dog in the fight (no Michael Vick reference intended).
Andres Torres homerses.
@Sax I would love to get my hands on a real 808 and see what it can do.
Oh sure, anyone can win a game if you keep hitting home runs. Where are the gritty infield singles?
4-1 Giants and the Snakes have only three more outs.
Giants win again. Shit.
P
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
