Ted Lilly (0-1, 7.71) vs. Clayton Richard (1-0, 4.50).
The Padres have a Clayton of their own, and he spells trouble for the Dodgers. In 2010, the left-hander had three starts against Los Angeles — and merely went 3-0, striking out 18 and allowing only five runs over 20 1/3 innings.
San Diego is off to a solid start, taking two of three from the Cardinals and splitting two with the Giants. Adrian Gonzalez has taken his bat to the 0-6 Red Sox, but the Padres always seem to find pieces, which this year include former Dodger Orlando Hudson.
Ted looks to rebound from his disappointing first start, that 10-0 shellacking the Giants put on the Dodgers last week. A strong showing would help restore confidence in the starting rotation, after what happened to (our) Clayton and Chad in Colorado.

hedley
what's up with 3rd basemen killing us lately?
Freaking Headley. Mofo. I HATE the Pods!
lamar
I like this bearded Lilly bit. He looks more gruff and pissed off with it.
Dusty...I like the unshaven look, too, but for more girlie reasons.
oh Matty
Made it to Aptos faster than I thought since it is only the fifth inning of this game.
Can we blame Kemp's defense on Davey Lopes absence?
Damn no Dodger game on in No Cal at the bar. What a surprise.
@Paul - I made it to buzzed faster than I thought I would
@karen - the unshaven look or the homeless hillbilly look?
Hang tough here, Teddy.
@FB...the sexy, unshaven look.
It's gonna be fun watching Lilly in the third year of his contract
That was sexy.
Shit.
@karen what do you think of Cantu's Dutch-painter look?
ODog not being much of an old friend tonite.
No live dodger game and dry as a bone at a bar. I'm a sad man.
ugh - those slow fastablls are way too high in the zone
Shave your beard,Lillie!
@Paul - why dry? Is it a salad bar?
Ted you need to be better
FB...He's a HATED Padre. No look is a good one for this girl.
Oh Snap! It's time to break into the cheap wine.
Chateau Diana?
Boooooooooooooo!
We're screwed.
I always liked Dave Roberts. Why did he have to grow up to be a Padre?
Only the 5th inning,tambien. 4 MORE INNINGS!
We have to adopt a "grind" attitude for this season, where every run matters, both scored and allowed. That's how the Pods did so well last year. We need to take that same attitude and hope for the best. For example, we can't let this guy in from third with two outs
it doesn't matter how ugly we win
Lilly actually *lowered* his ERA to 6.00 (so far)
Where is Belli? karina, can you find him?
I got pick up my padre in a bit. So I was just hoping the hotel bar would have extra innings but no luck.
Six pack at the hotel room waiting for me.
I hear you,Karen. re:Dave Roberts/all other ex-Dodgers
there we go
lets get some hits
and walks
and more hits
Wait we are losing now dammit.
right on, Paulie - you there for a wedding?
Vin in a flasher coat!
@ FB
Shouldn't it always be like that. They get paid. Bring that shit at all times.
I sure as hell don't want to lose because of an unearned run from a productive out.
@Spank - it really should
Dodgers give up lead in the fifth and here comes the rain.
Raffy rolling over to the 2B again
FUCK SMALLBALL, REACH FOR THE GODDAMN FENCES.
Dodgers have only one pathetic hit through five
Casey's swinging like he wants to get back to the dugout
BEARD!!
that'll hurt the FIP
My little Dodger is getting baptized tomorrow.
O-Dogg thought he was still a Dodger
C'mon Dre. Now's the time to sack up.
GET A FUCKING HOMER ANDRE
Not Miles, my son.
gogogo!
Congrats,Paul!
GET A FUCKING SINGLE, ANDRE
hehe nice, Paulie!
hey Dre, he's a righty!
I'm on iPhone GameDay delay. Blake just took second on the WP
I <3 O-Dogg!
Dodgers 7-for-47 this year with RISP
Now Matty. NOW!
Ethier you lucky dog
GODDAMMIT TAKE THE BAT OFF YOUR SHOULDERS FIRST
yes! way to go Matty!
Kemp please don't GIDP
@Sax the heh was for O'Dog's misplay, not your gameday troubles
MY CAPS LOCK KEY IS STUCK I THINK I REQUIRE ASSISTANCE
FUCK YEAH MATTY!!!
(cries)
YES WE DON'T LOSE YET
Yay Kempy!!!!!!
SHORTEN
YOUR
SWING,
URINE
!
I COULD HIT SHIFT TO GET LOWER CASES BUT I'M TOO LAZY
MY CAPS LOCK KEY IS STUCK ON MAD
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST URINE YOU SUCK-DIDDILY-UCK.
Urine is still on the Giants payroll
Urine!!! Way to go bunghole.
Juan Uribe = Juan Pierre take 2
JUAN PIERRE NEVER STRUCK OUT THIS MUCH. ALSO PIERRE IS MUCH THINNER, HITS LEFTY, AND PLAYS THE OUTFIELD. ALSO, HE LED OFF.
Loney 4-for-25 to start this year
AND HIS CAP NEVER FIT RIGHT
Steiner andMonday act as if they have never seen steady rain
@Paul 11:06...Congratulations on the baptism. You'll have a beautiful day tomorrow!
Shit, I had to take the caps lock key off. Now I think it's broken.
4-for-26 now. We may have to change "Free" in "FJL"
So that's it.All for not.
Don't tell Karina.
@MR LASC 11:12p: yes, but both Juans suck.
Well, at least we don't lose.
Padre fans look like a bunch of serial killers in their rain gear.
Shit. Another rain delay.
I really fucking HATE Charlie Steiner.
Okay good news is Sister picked up My dad bad news is my six pack of Sierra Nevada is three hours back at the house and the bar just closed.
Good news is we tied this bitch up bad news we couldn't take a fucken lead.
Is it legal to be sober on a Friday night?
@Paul 11:06p: assuming that your "little Dodger getting baptized" isn't slang for something else--congrats and have a great day tomorrow.
@Paul, you simply must grab a bottle from the bar and run.
What kind of bar closes at 11pm anyway?
Unless you're in another timezone?
Leaving a six pack of brew behind is unforgivable.
I always end up yelling at my radio asking Steiner things like "did the fuckin runner advance?". "they are down by five how are they gonna tie it up with one swing of the bat chuck?!?"
He makes a mistake at least every 20 seconds
I can't tell - are they done or just delayed again?
That is what I am saying re: hotel bar. Maybe they are just not letting me back cause I have my Dodger hat. They don't take kindly to us up here.
Thanks all for the congrats.
Yeah Spank i left six of my best men behind. Inexcusable, unforgivable, interminably hurtful.
Josh Suchon rightfully giving Lilly props for coming back out to pitch into the fifth, esp given we've got 19 straight games after this one. Suchon is right.
@Paul is there a store nearby?
De-laid.
If the Dodgers aren't playing, our goal should be to get Paul some beer
It never rains in Southern California. They tell me.
Paul, congrats! I can't believe it's been over a year since Luke got dunked.
Just call the goddamn game and make it up Sunday already.
Epale. What'd I miss?
Congrats, Paul!
I feel like mocking Dodger Talk callers.
"Bring back Juan Pierre! He knew how to win!"
I think I'm out of luck.
I didn't know my Oates avatar would make it rain. It was suppose to give the Dodgers hitting power. I need to check the avatar code book.
@FB
I'm down with a cross country beer run!
@Paul make your sister take you to a liquor store. On Rio Del Mar, there's a Safeway, a liquor store and a gas station that has stuff
I just Google-imaged Joe Block.
He has a face for radio.
Or get some weed. You are in NoCal.
#humboldtcone
Joe Block and Josh Suchon both praising Kemp an his new attitude.
even the ditch weed in NorCal is at least SourDiesel
Paul make sure you visit Lucky 13 on Market St
Suchon said it has stopped raining hard in SD
can any of you LA folk explain why Byron Allen is still on TV?
Goddamn! Haven't heard that name in years.
Byron Allen? Isn't he the guy who hosts those crummy shows on Channel 7 at three o'clock at night?
Dad brought wine !! Then he left it cause he wanted to see sportscenter and can't Here cause the little guy is asleep now. Well most important thing is the wine is still here !
Though drinking it by the light of my iPhone could be dangerous.
@MLASC, in NYC, it's channel 2 and 2:30am, so yes
Byron Allen exists for people to wake up to after falling asleep in front of the TV.
I wish I had a straw...
I forget what Channel 2 is in New York. I want to say NBC...?
@Paul, at this time of night, all that matters is if you can tell if it's red or white. And in an hour, that doesn't even matter
The lakers lost again?!?
@MLASC CBS
Dammit, I should have known that.
Over here, you might get lucky with CBS and wake up to a Frasier rerun.
That's Incredible?! no the other one.....
Real People?
YEAH!! FUCK YEAH!!
They are absolutely killing it with the "It's time for Dodger baseball" campaign. That Tommy ad with the different generations throwing the ball to each other was another winner. The only dud ad so far is the Uribe one, but that makes sense.
Suchon playing meteorologist
It's almost midnight, just call the damn game.
I'm out guys. Go Blue!
Maybe Rocky IV is on one of these channels...
Approaching 1988 on True Blue Stories.
Jon Weisman has some kind of personal vendetta against Jim Tracy?
Is it understandable? Maybe. Is it a little outdated? A bit. But is it entertaining? You betcha.
There's no easy way out,holmes.
Oh man everytime I want Roc to throw the towel.
1988 was such a great year in the Dodger Kingdom
Yeah it was the last year we had a kingdom.
Now let me tell you about 1991...
Prick!
Joe and Josh are now discussing terrible 3 sequels.
I have a theory I've been working on about 1988 and Dodger mojo since, but I'm not ready to share all the details yet.
No, I'm not.
Oh, that Josh.
SPIDER-MAN 3 CAN DIE IN A FIRE.
Oh, I guess I am now.
It's already Saturday? Fuck, I should be asleep.
I'll go to bed once we hit 400 comments or the game starts, whichever comes first.
Is there legitimate discussion about this game continuing tonight?
That's right, the Dodgers changed Single-A affiliates. It's Rancho Cucamonga now.
Shit.
Game will resume at 12:20. Joe West is passed out on the couch in his front lawn, muttering about how we are a disgrace to baseball.
I still have vivid memories of that post season('88). None more than Howell's pine tar incident.
Someone will injure himself in the midst of this game. Just call it. I'd rather deal with the risks of a double-header than the risks of a midnight resumption.
Sleep?
12:11am conflicting edit?! Fuck!
The rain is back! Forget wind, this is the real scourge of baseball!
It's on!
It looks like the only hearty souls in PetCo are Dodger fans.
@Josh re 88: I have been thinking something similar for a few seasons now
I think they're saying "Beat the rain, beat the rain."
I gotta go to bed so I don't get in any more trouble. Have a good night yall. Take the bad pitches and hammer the meatballs!
I still hear the beat L.A. chant.Sounds like 10 people.
Are we watching a Marlins game?
'Nite FB.
This is hardcore. they probably will stop the game in an inning or two.
It's quite possible that Venable literally caught Kenley napping.
Smoke!
This game is going to extras. I can feel it in my bones.
Excuse me,I was asleep.
399
400
(cries)
Gector Himenez!
you can't beat us in the top of the inning, you dumbasses.
OMG HE TOOK A PITCH
Maybe it'll snow next.
This game will never end!
Hopefully.
Smonkstakes will end before this game.
Yeah, Hector's a good use of a roster spot.
This is seriously going to cut into Kemp's pursuit of tail this evening.
Jimenez Rulez!
*swings tighty whitiez*
When is Joe West going to come in on his monster truck to declare this game complete?
We are definitely going to extras.
Zach Lee will be called up halfway thru the 8th.
I wonder what the temp is now. It looks really cold.
This game needs an 18-20 pitch at-bat.
Do that against the Gnats you mutt.
HE SPILLED HIS PUMPKIN SEEDS
Guerrier still hasn't given up an earned run.
Huh.
Wet Bottom Ethier!
A rarely scene, blue-chested robin-like bird, native to Southern California.
