Random rantings and ravings about the Los Angeles Dodgers, written by a small consortium of rabid Dodger fans. With occasional comments on baseball, entertainment, pop culture, and life in general.
Ted Lilly (4-5, 4.13) vs. Jason Hammel (3-5. 3.66).
Here comes the Hammel, and I would love nothing more than to turn this mutha out. And it's not like we can't touch this; Hammel is only 2-2 against us in his career, with a soundly mortal 4.80 ERA.
However, we've spent two games coughing up four-run leads (twice, in Game 1) and somnambulating through the first eight innings (in game 2), so maybe it's me who should pray for a break here. Please, Hammel, don't hurt 'em.

Now, off to the bar.
Thanks Jason... You got June Gloom up there too?
@Sax
Is June Gloom some new brand of Whiskey?
Actually the sun just peaked out from behind the persistent cloudiness that is Pacific Northwest weather this time of year. This type of event calls for another beer.
Don't mind if I do, Jason!
I'm about to have a friend come into town fro a couple of days, and he has access to very nice liquor. Spirits will be good, if you know what I'm saying.
FJL
And I don't mean I want him freed.
That poor wee lad having to watch this Loney shitfest...child abuse.
I'm at Mrs Dusty in Law's condo. My beer is over in my condo. (cries)
Yea, some light hitting!
MSG can't get the bunt down then flies out while advancing the runner. Men on first and third with one out. Lilly up. I'm making plans to go get my beer.
Come on, lil MSB! Let's tie it up!*

Re: Loney from earlier...
Anyone who swings at the first pitch after the guy in front of you walks to load the bases should be automatically DFA'd.
NO SERIOUSLY FUCK OFF AND DIE LONEY
Rancho Addie do the wrong way. This blows little boys.
80-year-old roider flies out.
Sons of Dante Bichette readers must be furious with that fruitless rancho.
I'm just going to turn off autocorrect for good.
Josh S 6:27p: I totally agree. First fucking pitch! Who the fuck is teaching these kids?!?!
Apodaca Apodaca Apodaca
Sittdown, Hammels. Lil bish. Speaking of, Timmeh got stomped today. 5-5 on the year.
Rancho Lillyendo
Er, Rancho Beardiendo.
OT: I saw trailer for Captain America today. My god, it looked shitty. I'd rather watch Loney go 0-5 than see this fuckig tripe.
Beard Mode!

Hey now.

Did you see the WSJ Weekend Journal article on top shelf liquors?

That 2-RBI 2B by Miles was pretty sweet.
6-1 Dodgers
I always liked the Miles signing.
*avoids lighting*
Linblom isn't spelled Lindblom? Well gooood damn.
Hawksworth was rolling. Why switch to Lindblom?
These were some medium hitting guys today. I like it. I needed this after yesterday. And the day before. And the day before that.
Son of a bitch, I was right! TV graphic had it spelled wrong.
Fuck Dinger!

Game time tomorrow? Hope De La Rosa doesn't Rubby the wrong way.
Live look in just came in MLB Network at the bar. Comely bartender agrees: Fuck Dinger and, apparently, Matt Kemp is "golden hot" (I assume she misheard when I called him a Golden God).
Kemp...GIDP?
That's unpossible!
I love to hear Vinny say words like computer and Twitter.
Ha! Bartender: "That mascot is a dino-douche."
@ Jason
Put a ring on her!
The Human Highlight Machine!
I like when Vin says "ANdroid phone."
Fuck, do I hate remakes.
Rancho GOD DAMMIT RELIEF PITCHING DO YOUR FUCKING JOB!!!
Elbert's been god awful since I praised him to Joe Block on Twitter.
Sorry, guys.
Apparently all of the phone lines are down in the neighborhood so credit card transactions aren't going through. Since I've already run a tab higher than the amount of cash in my pocket, I figure I might as well go crazy and run up this non-payable tab. Any suggestions?
Meanwhile, Kenley's throwing perfect frames in Chattanooga. Fat load of good that does us right now.
@Jason
Japanese whisky
Jason, that sounds eerily similar to our bullpen's way of thinking.
@ Josh
Hey, it's not like your comments caused the hated rival SF Giants to win the WS or anything.
Argh. Matt Kemp should have caught that one.
New line of the night: That guy (Wigginton) looks like a super ugly baby.
Bison, that was bad.
GOD DAMMIT RELIEF PITCHING DO YOUR FUCKING JOB!!!
Get this cocksucker out of there already!
What is it with guys wearing #55 for us sucking (modernly)
@Dusty:
NOPE. THAT NEVER HAPPENED.
I was on the moon at the time.
No lead is too big.
Is it weird that I'm excited that Miles is due up?
Dee Gordon - Kid N Play
Jeebus, Loney is slow.
But I'll take it!
@Dusty 8:02
I actually have a bottle of Suntory Yamazaki at home that I bought in Tokyo last year. I have some on special occasions. Like Tuesdays.
For good times, make it Suntory time.
@Dusty: TBLA had the line, "Dodgers call up Kid, will have him Play."
I'm continually amazed how slow Loney is.
Run James, run!
@Jason
Smoking' and drinkin' on a Tuesday night...
#Beasties
Wow, the Rockies fail more than the Dodgers.
Watching CO is like watching...ourselves.
Mini Sirloin Brother is 0-5 but he's been brilliant with the leather. Love him already.
Nats win!
My phone thingy says we're getting runs back. Is it right?
Jamey Carroll is fired up!!!
Yeah!
11-6 good guys
Fuckin Jamie Carroll!!! LHWGs rule!!!!
@Josh
I think you need to do a hard reset on your iPhone. It seems to be out of sync.
Where is Spank amd his shotgun to take out Dinger?
FJG
As in, F Jason Gambit
Kid in Play - only have to tag the bag once.
Damn I love this kid. Can I adopt him?
^ you know what I meant
Come on, fuckers! I need to walk the dog.
Wow....
GRAAAAAAAH.
Just end this!
Wow.
"What an afternoon, an evening, and a night."
For cereal.
Nice catch, Gwynn!
(asks Mrs Dusty to walk the dog)
Yaaayyy! Charlie Blackmon ignored my earlier advice!
