Hiroki Kuroda (6-9, 2.90) vs. Jon Niese (7-7, 3.72).
I remember partying in a Dodgers suite last night, hanging out with other passionate Dodgers fans, and watching the Dodgers fail to score all game long. But I don't remember much else; it's all a blur. And of course, Kuroda's turn comes up next, all but ensuring his start will reprise another night of offensive futility, wasting what will likely be another great outing (Kuroda sported a 2.12 ERA in June, but didn't earn a single win). Maybe the after-effects of Dodgers Blogger Night 2011 will have worn off by game time, and the Dodgers will find a way to score tonight. But that still doesn't explain my missing tooth.

Damnation, we need a pitcher with an last name starting with R. This team would be totally appropriate to roll with a "fuck lever" lineup.
kuRoda
Rosa, Rubby de la.
Isn't that how it works?
Too bad interleague play passed us by before Trayvon could get called up.
Then we need a catcher with a last name starting with I since "fuck liver" is a totally appropriate lineup for this group to watch. Is Chris Iannetta available?
We need a set of players whose last name initials can form the words "FUCK FRANK."
We just need a set of players before Kemp and Ethier split when they're free agents.
Luckily, the Dodgers locked up Kershaw and Bills.
And thanks to Mr. C for posting a line-up. One was not posted last night.
Oh, and if anyone can get me the information Vin was announcing last night about discounted tickets for tomorrow's game, I'd appreciate it.
StubHub has been weird lately.
It would require going all the way down to rookie ball, but:
Furcal
Uribe
Carroll
Kemp
Franco
Robinson
Akins
Navarro
Kershaw
So this is what it has come to. What a damn shame.
@rbnlaw
Was it the ASG2011 promo code? That was the $5/22/27 sale.
@Jason 5:36p: that's f'ing brilliant
The Dodgers announced today a 48-hour $5 sale on Reserve Level tickets to this Thursday’s game (7:10 p.m. vs. NYM) featuring Andre Ethier Throwback Bobbleheads presented by San Manuel Indian Bingo & Casino.
Teammates Kemp, who will start in center field for the National League, and Kershaw have already been selected to the NL All-Star Team and in celebration, the Dodgers are offering $22 Loge Level, $22 All-You-Can-Eat Right Field Pavilion and $27 Field Level seats for Thursday’s bobblehead night.
Dodger fans can partake in the 48-hour sale by visiting dodgers.com/ethier.
Thanks Orel! The Dodger site is well known for hiding what you really want.
#powerhittingleftfielder
And thanks Jason! I thought you typed "SOSG2011" promo.
I had to chuckle at that one.
At the Yard, Vinny!
WE SUCK
The SoSG2011 promo gets you one beer at full price.
Hrmgrmnnmrm, Vinny.
I don't know if anyone's mentioned this yet (I've been a tad busy), but this is a great read from KAJ.

Drinking leftover 4th of July booze,Vinny!
Epale!
Why do I get the feeling this is going to be a lonely thread?
Mmmmmmm.....leftover patriotic booze
I'll post as long as I get 3g here at the Yard.
Dud we really get someone tinier, with less power, who weighs less than than Juan Pierre, to play LF?
If I was in the L.A. area I would score the $22 All You Can Eat tickets and personally eat the concessions out of business.
Good play,1B. Can't wait till you do that for Baltimore.
Would you call that play by Hiro a "stab with the glove"?
3 great defensive plays in a row...I'm feeling a little woozy now.
Just cast a shitload of more votes for Andre. 17 HOURS, PEOPLE!
(Is there a limit to the number of votes? I could have sworn that was much more than 50.)
just finished my recap of last night's blogger night, it goes up at 6a tomorrow.
gotta hop peoples
True Story:
Right field scoreboard just read: Dodgers Welcome Alcohol Beverage Control
Did Sax put them up to that?
Just overheard (swear to god):
Who was Fernando?
If I had a Darth Vader outfit I would wear it every day. I would love walking into the bank with it on.
Seriously I am still stunned I can get into the Ravine on a promotion night less than the cheapest minor league ticket in my town.
Parking at the stadium costs more than the tickets. That is Frank's dream come true.
Go Grizzlies!
(cries)
PGT Up!
When the Topes come to town next month I'll at least get to watch a more exciting team.
We tied?!
They just advertised Fernando bobble night tix for $5 - reserve level. Can you imagine them having to seriously discount this night?
@Delino
Please come escort out all your trashy Mets fans friends. They are more than just mildly annoying.
epale everyone!
have fun there, Dusty!
I just got a Bumgarner badge and feel lots dirty :(
@ Dusty
My kind of prices.
Hooray! 2-1 not Dodgers
Howdy Dusty... I am not my brothers' keepers, alas. We're all sort of like the Mole Men, living underground since Game 7 of the NLCS.
PGT Up! Again.
Afraid of the light. Nervous of being above ground and over .500
I'm on double kid duty tonight. Toy Story 2 on for the 60th time. MY two favorite teams on Gameday. My only thrill - a possible badge. (Though the Dog just walked over to kiss the baby - that was kind of cute beyond words)
Furcal with a lead off walk! You won't see that for another 76 years.
Ah Mets pitching - never content to have a lead
Pheh
Kemp up with 2 on and no out.
Damn - there were badges all over this game and I was too late to get any of them
Oh no... "THE CHICKEN MAN!"
Thank you,1B,for that tap out.
this is a very close game, go Blue!
What's up with Kuroda, out already.
Just when I was going to give Donny some props a lead off single.
Yes.... I relinquished control of the TV
I mean, he relinquished control.
I watch baseballs now.
I happys
Cliff Clavin fact... Turner's like the king of HBP.
And apparently the king of swinging at utter shit
I had a chance at $20 VIP Field level behind home plate seats... but they disappaeared from my grasp
Ming the Merciless: Execute their hitting coach
Go back to Bikini Bottom, Niese!
I blame Ned as well, paying deferred payments, that Fucken Giant has just screwed us with his signings.
Just read about Jon Garland, that Stan Conte can't keep anyone healthy. Another butt pirate from the north.
Not that there is anything wrong with it.
If looks could kill, Velez would be splattered across left field.
i like the tron theme rip off in the coors light ad
k rod is one step above a position player closing out a blowout. a one run lead with him is like being tied with any other pitcher
There is your All-Star Right fielder.
f
nice one, kemp
That's right Delino and that's how I feel there's a walk off coming up
THERE IS YOUR ALL-STAR CENTER FIELDER!
10 PRINT WE SUCK
20 GO TO 10
there's your red headed stepchild!
There goes my hopes and dreams
Ye gods, we are a pitiful baseball team.
I was talking about K Rod with the blog boys last night. The Angels really turned his arm into dust.
3.32 ERA does not a closer make
Epale, Karina!
Yes, I'm having fun here even though we're losing and we suck. Still True Blue.
(obligatory cry)
oh my. hard to make kemp look silly
Nice timing, fatass.
I knew Urine would get meaningless hit. Get Dinner up!
Close this thing out. I've got garbage to take out
Velez!!
how come mattingly is not praying like my four bobbleheads?
I have to admit,1Bman never let's me down.
Portrait of an SoSG Commenter.
Never swing again Velez. You will screw things up
WHERE IS MY DINNER?!
You fucker! What did I say!
Balls.
We got a Gnat on base and a Gnat batting. Wearing Dodger blue.
good night room.
good night spoon.
good night cow jumping over the moon.
So, did Ned think he could switch out Dee for Velez and hope the casual fan wouldn't notice?
I can't wait till we get Pat Burrell next year!
Oh well,it could have been worse. I could have been out having fun.
(cries)
What would of happen if we had kept Deposta and Collins?
post-game thread up
or your mattress is freeeeeeeee
