Game 18 Thread: April 19 vs. Braves, 7p

Hiroki Kuroda (2-1, 3.48) vs. Brandon "Palm" Beachy (0-1, 5.19).

Today's game definitely sounds like a travel postcard (and not just because ol' Sax here spent the last four days relaxing at a picturesque beach resort). Welcome to Los Angeles, home of hot (Jerry) Sands and (Brandon) Beachy environs! These two newbies should be the story tonight at the Ravine, what with Sands Storm Mania sweeping the dunes of Dodgertown, and Beachy having broken into the Braves' starting rotation just under a month ago.

And did we mention Beachy was born in Kokomo (Indiana), a similarly-named city to a dangerously catchy Beach Boys song from a thoroughly forgettable Tom Cruise movie? So I guess the question is, will the Dodgers repeat their offensive performance of last night: get there fast, and then they'll take it slow?

KILL ME WITH YOUR HEAT VISION SOMEONE

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

That's a doozy.

Paul said...

I think Jansen has been jinxed ever since Neeebs created that homemade lunchbox of him.


Fuck!!!!

Paul said...

We can't score 5 in a game. That is just unheard of.

Kyle Baker said...

Can we turn Jansen back into a catcher now?

Kyle Baker said...

I'm not sure what this mysterious "5" is you speak of, Paul.

Paul said...

Troncoso Troncoso Wherefore art thou my Troncoso?

Josh S. said...

We are perfectly capable of scoring five...



...in games where our opponents score nine.

Paul said...

Holy shit that was the first out!?!

spank said...

I hate to be negative but our relievers kinda suck.

Josh S. said...

Chipotle Jones.

spank said...

...but not as bad as Chipper Jones

Josh S. said...

Is Chipotle wearing a wetsuit under his uni?

Josh S. said...

Kenley Gascan.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

MattyG's been pretty good so far.

Any chance we had of winning this one is down the crapper.

In for a penny, in for a pound.

Josh S. said...

Like anyone expected anything different with Tron. HE ALWAYS ALLOWS INHERITED RUNNERS TO SCORE.

Kyle Baker said...

I just paid my mortgage. It was less painful than watching this Dodger bullpen.

Nostradamus said...

This is sucking the fun right out of things, ain't it?

Josh S. said...

Can we borrow Breezy back?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

This does not bode well for tomorrow.

Josh S. said...

What the fuck kind o tag was that?

karina said...

I feel like cursing like a sailor

Kyle Baker said...

Great throw by Sands. Ellis can't put the tag down, though. Fuck this game. Dusty out.

karen said...

This is just horrible.

Josh S. said...

BATTING PRACTICE

karen said...

Vin being diplomatic saying Tron "is having a tough time". You know he wants to say "This guy just sucks".

spank said...

Do it,Karina!

Josh S. said...

Fucking boat! Piece of shit tradewinds! Poopdeck!

#cursinglikeasailor

Josh S. said...

Now I'm morbidly fascinated.

spank said...

2-1 seems like so long ago

MR.F said...

The bleeding stopped!

karina said...

it ain't over 'till it's over

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Don't call it a comeback...

Because it won't be.

spank said...

Because there was nothing left to bleed.

Paul said...

I am at work guys. It is Wed.

Josh S. said...

We can win if Jerry Sands bats 4 times.

Josh S. said...

Just swing, AJ.

spank said...

Fire Mattingly! Just saying.

#bullshitting

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

That was unpleasant.

karina said...

Orel said...
