Ted Lilly (0-2, 6.00) vs. Tim Hudson (2-1, 3.48).
The Braves and Dodgers, both owners of 7-9 records, meet with a little bit of momentum on each side. The Braves just took two of three from one of the few teams that makes the Dodgers look good, the Mets. The Dodgers, although losing three of four to the Cardinals, are riding high on yesterday's combined heroics of Chad Billingsley and Matt Kemp.
The Braves have a heroic duo of their own, their ace Hudson and the young phenom Jason Hayward, who leads the team with four homers. Meanwhile, Lilly has yet to make it past the sixth inning this season, so it's good Bills gave the middle relievers a rest yesterday. (Jonathan Broxton is another, hair-tearing concern.)
Oh, and it's time for some irrational hope. From @Dodgers:
Today the #Dodgers called up Jerry Sands and designated Xavier Paul for assignment

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 328 of 328Okay Dodgers have run out of people to sing GBA.
Mrs Dusty said the same thing re Hangover 2, Josh.
I thought Hangover 2 was another name for Sunday morning.
^ me
Go job Ted, what a game, hopefully the bullpen (record scratch), good game Ted.
My mlb.tv is slow by like 3 minutes. Everytime I refresh, it's look like I'm looking into the future!
Fuck, now I have a Nate McLout badge. I don't want no stinkin' badges from other teams (unless it's Nats).
Nice outing for the Bull Moose.
Is there something offensive about the Hangover 2 logo I wasn't paying attention?
Or just the word hangover? Or the #2?
@Mr F
When you are looking into the future, do you see Carlos Monasterios?
Those look good. Where is there a Blimpie?
@Paul
I guess at least on its face it's having to explain to a 4 year old what a hangover is? Dunno, not a parent...
Paul: They show the trailer on the DodgerVisiom before the 7th.
@Josh, there is one two cities down from me in San Dimas.
It isnt that great. Any small Italian deli would probably be better.
Can't type for shit tonight.
Weak swing, Of Jesus.
@Nic: Dtupid commercials make everything look good.
Change your name to Jerry, Ivan.
Freakin DeJesus, I thought you would be good.
Jesus Christ, I cannot spell anything.
@Josh, you're telling me, Summers Eve tastes nowhere near as good as the commercial makes it seem.
Hey Josh, how about saying, Ivan DeJesus, its easter man.
Those Neck cigarettes are probably overrated as well.
not that I've been to church lately, but it would make me giggle.
It's also Passover. As in Prado just passed over that fly ball.
KILL HIM WITH YOUR HEAT VISION, CASEY
Okay Dre. I miss your homeruns.
ha passover ha, is Karina related to him or something
Ethier due.
The guy is from Kokomo and his name is beachy!
Beachy vs Sands! Who wins?
We all have a little Juan Pierre in us.
15 game streak for Dre!
15 games baby
damn!
That would be out at Yankee Stadium.
That was a cool little moment between Kemp and Lopes.
Ah nuts.
I thought that ball was going to t-bone Barry Zito! Wow. Out of there in so many parks.
I thought I was listening to Steiner for a second. Vin got me all pumped up for a fly out
That Steiner gets you excited, like getting your balls liked and then the car pulls into the driveway.
balls licked, freakin Josh, now I got it
"getting your balls liked"
Heh.
Will someone make me a retro t shirt with Kemps face and the words "hey don't do that shit here boy!" on it.
I'll pay Target prices!!!
They just re-showed Kemp. I'm pretty sure he said what Mrs Dusty thought he said, not the "boy." But it sounds better.
Yeah. I'd pay Target prices for any Matt Kemp shirt, tbh.
So #55 went from the French-Canadian to the guy with a butchered French name.
And both #55's have a tendency to strand runners.
Siddown, Larry!
How is MattyG getting it done?
Chipper looks 176 years old now. Or is that his BA?
Urine almost killed me with one of those foul balls on opening day.
Don't you love it when they show highlights from, like, 8 minutes ago set to some hip song?
Hells yeah.just saw the Lilly retaliation pitch.
(cries)
C'mon, Fatty.
@Dusty - No, not particularly.
I don't believe what I just saw!
Urine squirts one.
Everytime I see Trey Hillman I want him to pull out some six shooters and fire them wildly.
28,292 paid. Christ.
Paid Christ for what?
Mrs Dusty in Law has proclaimed that Loney is BACK and said I could book it here in this space.
(denies)
I'd like another hit please. Maybe a double just to get Urine some exercise.
Nuts.
The Dream is over.
Sands in the worst slump of his career.
C'mon, Roddy. We still need a little Broxton-proofing.
MLASC and Nic- Sands' slump is all your fault!
Kempy rocking a better beard than Blake. He's the total package.
Urine may need a pinch runner after all that exercise going first to third.
Jerry Sands, substitute teacher? What a great kid!
Let's get it done Marcus.
@Josh
That's why I was dry humping him so much.
(yes, that is how far behind my feed is)
what are you talking about? My avatar is a bench of very tiny pebbles.
My avatar is of the Rat Pack in front of a defunct casino-resort.
And what's your excuse, Josh?
300
Change it bastards, he is now batting a clark kent .333
My avatar is #68, Barry Sands.
I really liked the Super Dave, it is my second favorite next to Spanks - Fletch.
My god, I'm not meaning to run this Broxton thing into the ground, but he seriously doesn't fool anyone any more and doesn't throw particularly fast compared to himself of old. I guess at least he's not Ryan Franklin.
Broxton doin' his thang. Two on, no out.
Son of a bitching bitch.
it's never easy with Brox
Booooo, indeed.
Bring Sands in to close.
Karina's avatar: representation of Broxton's ERA.
they should let sands pitch, or switch Loney back to a pitch and move sands to first.
Are you really 3-0 to Freddie Fucking Freeman?
Ivan DeJesus, Loney back to a pitcher, shit
Just need a triple play.
has he gotten a swing and miss yet?
Anyone seen that fan fumble away the foul ball?
Avoiding Bubba shooting the jukebox.
whatever, its an out.
Padilla for closer.
Broxton hasn't finished this shit yet? Fuck!
@Nic: This season?
"Broxton Sucks" trending on Twitter.
Bring in Mary Hart!
Padilla's closer song could be three dog night's Joy to the World
Dusty is using misdirection to keep us from noticing that Sands was doing great until HE brought up a jinx.
Mary Hart can like my balls.
On Facebook?
Brox is all we got, Jansen been talking with brox,
I wish I were thinking that craftily tonight, Josh. Way too tired and cranky for that.
Ach.
we got this.
i bet she a good ball liker
Beer status: stone cold sober
I would also prefer Jansen or a pitching machine as closer.
Sitting dead red.
We should trade for George Sherrill.
Dont worry guys, Hawksworth is backing him up.
(cries)
NEVER A DOUBT!!!
Well then.
Game ball to Jerry Sands.
We win!
We make party!!!
Broxton no invited.
Game balls to Fernie V.
I'll remember Broxton struggling with a 4 run lead thank you very much
No one put an hourglass as their AVI?
That Brox wants to keep his ERA above 6, so he doesn't make the All-Star team and really lose his confidence again.
This Chris McGee is a goober.
Only if they get liked
They're chanting for Sands while he's doing the post-game interview. That's awesome.
Good game ,Sands. Keep it up. But I'm still not sold.
How come all of us knew this kid would be good, but the Nedster missed it.
Spank the kool-aid is good, just like my friend Jamal's mom used to make.
