Game 13 Thread: April 14 vs. Cards, 7p

"I miss my BFF Trevor Ariza!"


"I'm actually a Rockets fan!"

Hiroki Kuroda (2-0, 1.72) vs. Jaime Garcia (1-0, 0.60).

Pity the poor Dodgers promotions department. They include beer in their half-price food & drink promotion, then have to pull it following the Bryan Stow incident. Tonight is Purple and Gold LA Cap Night at Dodger Stadium, and it comes on the heels of Kobe Bryant's $100,000 fine for using homophobic language. What's next — people start discovering smallpox in their Dodgers Snuggies?

Fortunately, the team is bringing in some famous figures to class up the joint tonight:

NBA Hall of Famers Kareem Abdul Jabbar and Bill Sharman, who also played in the Dodgers’ minor league system in the 1950s, will throw out a ceremonial first pitch. Long-time Lakers anthem singer and good luck charm Jeffrey Osborne will perform the National Anthem and God Bless America.

Will the Laker luck Stay With Us Tonight? Will Matt Kemp hit a ball that will be carried out of Dodger Stadium On the Wings of Love? Will the Dodgers get some Woo Woo wood on the ball? If not, Don't You Get So Mad.

Paul said...

McDougal takin it to the streets!

spank said...

Nothing wrong with cheap vodka.It gets you drunk.

Fred's Brim said...

Eddie Murray sighting in that Dodger ad!

Paul said...

I am gonna run out of McDonald hits by May.

Paul said...

Let's put a sitting gentleman on the board.

spank said...

I could have used Rasmus's hair the other day to scrub my tires.

Paul said...

We must lead the league in infield pop ups.

Fred's Brim said...

When is Dionner coming back?

Paul said...

This team has a late Sept. Feel to it. Not the good late sept.

spank said...

Never thought I'd see the day when someone would plead for Dioner's return.

Fred's Brim said...

i saw somebody using Rasmus' hair to scrape barnacles off a sloop down at Marina Del Ray

Paul said...

I use to have such high hopes for X Paul.

Fred's Brim said...

@spank - just wonderin...

Paul said...

Did Kershaw lose his Brooklyn hat already?

spank said...

I want to see Dusty do the wave while wearing his snuggie.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I'm gonna be honest, I've just been watching hockey this whole time.

Fred's Brim said...

The important question is this: how drunk is Dusty? I bet he calls in sick to work tomorrow

Fred's Brim said...

Donny's got the give-up staff in

Fred's Brim said...

@MLASC - If I wasn't being so positive tonight, I would probably be doing the same thing.

Go Sabres!

Fred's Brim said...

Ronald Bellisario, where are you?

Fred's Brim said...

@spank that's a barnacle

Nostradamus said...

DeligHtful.

Paul said...

We dun.

Fred's Brim said...

Is it possible to DFA a guy in the middle of a game?

karen said...

Being positive is getting tougher and tougher.

Fred's Brim said...

can we have Elmer Dessens back?

spank said...

This game is done.

MR.F said...

Four sisters?

Steve Dittmore said...

Worse Ned scrap heap signing: Cormier or any Ortiz? Discuss.

Fred's Brim said...

It is very difficult, karen.
I have actually reached my limit and don't know if I can keep it going.
So I am going to go to bed instead of breaking my promise

Nostradamus said...

There will never be a pitcher as consistently bad as Russ Ortiz with the same inexplicable ability to stay on a roster.

Nostradamus said...

We're done here. Move along.

spank said...

Can you Woo Woo Woo!!

Paul said...

Mama, put my guns in the ground
I can’t shoot them anymore
That long black cloud is comin’ down
I feel like I’m knockin’ on heaven’s door

karen said...

Mr.F--The palm trees in the bullpen. Although I thought he used to refer to them as the two sisters.

Steve Dittmore said...

Ok, Karen, here is one... Dodger pitching has not walked anyone tonight.

I'm done folks... adios.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I have two badges out of this whole debacle, though.

(cries)

MR.F said...

Thanks, Karen.

MR.F said...

Looked a bit high to me...

Steve Dittmore said...

One last thing... Cardinal announcers are so bored they are now discussing Ricky Horton's (color commentator) role on '88 Dodger team.

Steve Sax said...

It's only mid-April and we're already out of the race. I feel like the Pirates. We are awful.

spank said...

Oooooo power play Tiburons

Steve Sax said...

Well, at least there's half-price beer next week to which I can look forward.

DAMMIT

karen said...

@Saxy--:(

Paul said...

OT. In San Jose.

spank said...

I really hate that tobacco commercial with the lady and the hole in her throat.

karen said...

UJTD

Something to cheer about!?

karina said...

it ain't over 'till it's over. I saw the Mariners overcome a 7 run diferential.

spank said...

Keep the positiveness alive,Karen!

Steve Sax said...

I have sympathy for UJTD at this point

Steve Sax said...

Dodgers never do well against palindrome pitchers from the NL Central

spank said...

That was weak,A.J.

MR.F said...

Jamey Carroll, solid contributor!!!

NicJ said...

Got them right where we want them.

karen said...

Jamey has been doing great filling in for Raffy.

spank said...

Ackbar!

Josh S. said...

Sax, I'm using your method of badge collection: Left my work computer on with a Gameday tab for each of the day's games.

Josh S. said...

Damn.

MR.F said...

Damned NL Central OFer/Founding Father.

spank said...

That would have scored everyone

Paul said...

OT begins.

NicJ said...

Damn richardson was so close.

spank said...

Oh shit.Broxton sighting.

Paul said...

Kings have had a lot of chances.

karina said...

Let's see the bright side, Brox pitched well tonight (when it didn't really matter)

*cries*

karen said...

WOW!! Bison showing the power!

spank said...

Leaving the bases loaded in the first inning is killing me right now.

karen said...

Karina--Another bright spot...James had 2 hits tonite. Maybe he's turning the corner??

Paul said...

Told Hiro 5 was our limit.

spank said...

GGGGOOOOOAAAAAALLLLLLL!!

karen said...

Paul--You sure called that one right.

NicJ said...

Fuck. The kings just made things harder then they have to be.

NicJ said...

If it's any consolation we all know the sharks are going to choke in the later rounds anyways.

Orel said...

Perfunctory PGT up.

spank said...

How many runs do we need tomorrow,Paulie?

Paul said...

We will need to score 6.

Thinking we will top out at 4.

karina said...

@Karen I don't doubt the King :)

MR.F said...

Pad those stats, Bison!
