Jon Garland (1-4, 4.75) vs. Javier Vasquez (3-4, 6.41).
Don't overlook these Fish. The Marlins, second place in the NL East by a game, came into the NL West-leading Giants' house on Tuesday and not only swept their sorry San Francisco asses (including an epic extra-inning Wednesday game that saw the Marlins give up four runs in the bottom of the ninth, but then come back to win it in the 12th), but also squarely and cleanly knocked Giant catcher Oyster Pubes onto the DL--possibly for the whole season--with an violent leg-breaking, ankle ligament-tearing collision that ended up scoring that 12th inning go-ahead run.
It's a deep and unfortunate blow for the Giants to lose Pubes this early on, and our thoughts go out to him for a complete recovery. In the meantime, though, we've got to worry about the ravenous, deadly Fish in town this weekend, starting with tonight's game. Let's hope our day off Thursday gave us time to prepare for a big haul. Or at least apply some proper sunscreen.
I know, you expected Marlins Mermaids references in this GT. Keep it in the pants. We've still got two more games to go in this series.

Hey you buncha drunks, get off Facebook and come on over to the GT.
O's playing the A's. Battle ofnthe teams with apostrophes that piss me off.
On another esoteric note, the logo letter between us and our opponents tonight can spell "ALF."

Happy birthday Paul!
Here's to your boutique!
(hopes for another Beasties lyrics avalanche)
Epale,Karina!
What's with the Glenn Danzig avatar?
I don't mean to brag
I don't mean to boast
But I'm intercontinental when I eat French toast

I think my whole has been one long Beasties lyrics avalanche.
I think your whole has been too!
^life
Maybe the next puzzle series puzzle could be to figure out the one Beasties lyric from their entire canon that I will not recite.
This sucks. I can't access my google account with my laptop but I can with the rec cpu. I may have to log in as a total different entity so excuse em moi.
@Spank nope, it's the BAMF Neville Longbottom, can't wait for that movie!
FUCK!
At my local, Vinny!
Not you,Karina. My fucking computers.
Ethier, batting .311, is all mixed up, don't know what to do
Booooooo!
my shit is a beautiful disaster without the beautiful.
yay! I can see Loney is heating up!
I'll call him King James tonight
My Twitter feed is messed up. It said Loney homered.
I'll still call him mutt.lol
At the SEA - BUY game and note the Dodgers scored. Pull out my phone to find out how and it says Loney HR. I'm being Punk'd, right?
Russell J. with a walk and a steal tonight. In retaliation, the Seattle catcher also walked and stole second. Burn!
^ uh, NYY
And, happy birthday, Orel?
Making me a little weepy for some old skool 311 there, Sax.
Douchee-mcyankee-fan sitting in the next suite has so far:
* Declared Robinson Cano the best player in baseball, right now (currently, 0-2, 1K)
* Threatened to fight anyone willing to argue his point that, historically, jitters have the worst average on a 2 and 2 count
* Loudly predicted that Teixeira will hit each pitch "out of the park" (he struck out swinging weakly at a ball in the dirt)
* Unironically announced his desire to have Jeter's babies.
@ Jason
Is he Billy Crystal?
Guys, my GameDay is down again. It says Loney had a HR.
@Josh 7:58p: wow, I had not ready your comment prior.
Great minds think alike
would love a Mariners romp here
would love a Dodgers romp even more
If you get a chance, check out a replay of the catch Franklin Gutierrez just made on a Swisher drive to center. Ex-Dodger farm hand done real good.
Furcal is batting .130 and is in the leadoff spot.
shit, just watched the video of that HR ball by Loney, and that was surprisingly deep in the Fish's pen (bowl?)
@Jason, when Tex went yard, did the guy have a money shot?
this is not good, mr. garland
two on, none out, top 6
Garland almost botched that throw to second on the double play. Focus,Fool.
@Sax
He was still too busy cleaning his pants from Jeter's at bat to notice.
Garland just erased Loney's home run. Asshole.
shit. just when I thought we'd get out of the jam, rbi single for greg dobbs.
1-1 game.
Dammit.
dammit garland, FOCUS
four-pitch walk to stanton
Did Vin just say "ironical"?
"Furcla, still lost in space since his return from the disabled list,..."
--Charley Steiner
^ Furcal
Alex, your avatar is Oyster Pubes getting flattened? Dude, that's cold.
I don't want to lose a game where King James homers :(
DRE DAY!!!!
HOMERUN1
ANDRE!!!!
Another one into the Fish Bowl!
steiner got the HR call right
mark the date
"A curveball that Vasquez would like to have back."
--Rick Monday, again stating the obvious.
steiner got the kemp non-HR call right, too
2-1 Dodgers through six
and it's time for Tommy's skechers shape-ups story
Sax, yes my avatar is cold, but give me a BREAK- see what I did there? =P
I dig those stories! Cousins is pinch hitting now...
You could say that making my avatar was a snap...okay I'll stop now...
Cousins is alright in my book.
there's a rumor that the Giants want Sandoval to be a catcher again.
I love the look on Loney's face when he homered. It was clearly an accident. He stood there like "what do I do now?" and "do I get to run around these base thingies uncontested?"
^that was cruel, Dusty :(
Juan Castro Ladies and Gents.Let's give him a round of applause.
Booooooo!
All 'tussened up - I shant be held responsible from here on out...
Rub a dub dub.
Rubbymania is dead.
I thought everyone said this guy is good. I can pitch better left-handed with my left hand tied behind my back.
I hate us
Ha!
Break his leg!
what the fuck just happened there with gaby sanchez getting run down on a foul ball?
it ain't over 'till it's over
Brox still on the prime ticket commercial? Maybe we fix that with Sands...
Maybe if Tony Gwynn,Jr. puts on about 200 pounds he'll start hitting like poppa.
Over/Under fookie stays healthy the rest of the year?
*plays Danzig first solo release on cassette*
Rubby Tuesday on a Friday
Leggo!

Royals just scored FIVE in the top of the 14th inning to take a 12-7 lead on the Rangers in Arlington
Walking Kemp to go after Dinner. I can go for some take OUT myself.
bases juiced for...DIONER????
@Jason: Let's go M's
100
Dioner has never had a Dodger walkoff hit; he has had three in the AL
Dioner Navarro for this?
*shakes head but still has hope*
I'm watching that game, Sax
I love us! It's been fun, night y'all stay safe!
Dinner satifies. We Makes Parhtay!
IT'S DINNER TIME!!!!
YAY! WE MAKE PARTY ON PAUL'S BDAY!
PGT up.
Making Seattle party.
M's getting ready to finish off the Yankees. (Sorry about the rogue apostrophe, Dusty)
@karina, I credit your hope
I swear I thought Navarro was going to GITP
@Jason, you still have two innings to go...
That fish in the GT pic must be from England.
