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.
Nathan Eovaldi (1-0, 1.64) vs. Zack Greinke (11-4, 4.08).
The Brewers have the Diamond Dancers, while the Dodgers are Diamond Disasters. It's good to be Greinke, who's 8-0 at Miller Park this season, but it's bad to be the Dodgers, who helped the Brewers to a season-high seven-game divisional lead yesterday. The most we can root for today is another solid outing from the rookie Eovaldi, and for Matt Kemp to inch closer to 30/30...and 40/40.

This date in lineup history comes from 2005:
Izturis 6
Robles 5
Bradley 8
Kent 4
Valentin (and his mustache) 7
"Can't spell" Jayson Werth 9
"Can spell" Jason Phillips 3
Dinner 2
"Not Oliver" Perez 1
Special appearance by Broxton pitching the 5th (3 K, 3 BB, 1 H, 1 ER). For the Braves, we got to see Furcal leading off and Andruw Jones go 1-5 with his 38th homerun.
I thought Valentin was hurt most of that year. Must have been between hospital visits.
Freaking Odalis...
Definitely up there on the most-hated ex-Dodger lists for me.
I would like to see Odalis and Brad Penny in a Rock'em Sock'em Robots-like battle
"Can't spell" Jayson Werth 9
"Can't hit" Jason Phillips 3
I can only find info on the 2010 squad, but I'd have to go with Katie, Angela, Racquel, or Melissa.
And Gwyn.
Dibs on Chelsea!
I think Gwyn refers to Tony as "Can't spell" Gwynn, Jr.
Damn, they don't get a lot of sun up there, do they?
Sun, cheese, beer: choose two.
Zack Greinke has a tiny head!
(pours one out for Dusty)
kill, Kill, KILL.
I'll hook up wif Erica and Courtney.
If you'll excuse me, I need to go home for some cheese and beer, whilst enjoying the sun.
Loney: 1 PA, 2 outs
To be fair, one of those outs came on a Miles CS, but still...
It appears Navarro just got the bunt sign that was sent in to Loney when Miles was caught stealing.
Changing shit again Sons? I see what's going on.
what shit are we changing?
Aaron Miles: legitimately our best option for #5 hitter?
Yo Mr F!
Gwynn with the bunt single
and Billingsley is our best #5 hitter option
So true, FB!
nice pickup, Casey
eff you, Collins
where have you been hiding, MrF?
looks like Nate will get another crack at the meat of the Brewer lineup
Dre gets us started with a nice single
Cmon Matty!
Matty can't lay off the breaking balls
that slider thing is nasty
at least Loney can't hit into a double play this time
good AB for James
two on, two out, Dinner up
Dinner down
Grankey with a nice backhand of a grounder up the middle
was that our last good chance to score?
Jamey Carroll in to replace Casey for some reason
heh heh "Regina"
Young Billy Joel gets the walk,
Fielder up with one out
Fielder with a single, first and second, still one out
this ump won't give him the outside pitch
and another walk, bases loaded, one out
Is there another double play in our bag? Maybe get Loney to rub the ball
that's the same damn pitch you called a ball, (ch)ump!
Betancourt with a shallow fly ball to center for the second out, runners can't advance
One more, kid. Finish this off
What's up, FB!
shite
grounder up the middle scores 2
What happened to the fat letter script on the home page? I wasn't dreaming it right?
We get 2 strikes, 2 outs and we can't close the deal. It feels like it's been like that all season. I guess that's why we are 11 (soon to be 12) games under .500
Whattup, Spanktopus?
Lyons is blaming Navarro for the hit by Hairston
@Spank - I didn't see that
Must have been my Apple II fucking with me.
2-0 Uecker.
Tony Gwynn with a... a... homer?
WHAAAAAAAA?
I used to like it when teams (or players) would mark the team's logo on the back of the mound, but the Brewers painting it blue and gold is straight wack. I would scuff it out or drop the rosin bag on it
yum, our bullpen
T'would be nice if the Dodgers could at least get Captain Eo off the hook.
Craig Counsell is still in the league?
Busy at work. Traveling. Then working "hard". This and that. And then I get lazy and don't feel like watching the Dodgers at home because they suck.
I hear ya, Mr F - I couldn't even participate in the AssAssIns Circle this year
Casey left with shoulder pain - shit ain't right with gramps
The monkeys score more consistently than we do.
I don't like the Dodgers.
Navarro, the ass that he is, throws out Counsell
Casey's a year older than I am, but I have qualms about calling him Methuselah.
The monkeys should set their horny sights on Navarro's mask next time
Josh S. left the game due to acute malaise.
My Halloween costume was a monkey fucking a doorknob.
Marla, do you have a pic of that?
and do you mind me stealing that idea?
All photographic evidence was confiscated by the NSA.
this damn ump has a shitty strike zone
i'll just have to imagine it
Matty with the infield single
James can't lay off the head-high curve
nice work by the bullpen against the middle of the order
Axford in to send us back to the hotel
thanks, Dinner
Did we lose yet?
Sellers draws the one-out walk, Rivera up
And Rivera stands there like he never saw the pitches
@Josh, just about
this ump is no good - his strike zone is all over the place
and that'll do it
thank you, drive thru
gnite yall
I just get home and they lose already?!
Damn FB, that's a lot of cover shots.
Wait, wrong thread.
We won!
Sorry, I was looking at August 17, 2010.
