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.
Hiroki Kuroda (12-16, 3.19) vs. Madison Bumgarner (12-12, 3.21).
Dodgers' last home game of the year. Giants on the brink of elimination. Hiroki Kuroda's $175,000 bonus for pitching one inning will be worth it tonight if he can go on and get the win. Gambatte!

Sax is at 380 badges. One more row to complete the 24th case.
Mets score four in the top of the ninth to tie the game against WC-hunting St Louis...
6-6 and the Mets are still batting with the bases juiced and two out
Mets take an 8-6 lead. Ouch.
Austin Jackson becomes my 251st badge. I had that great initial surge, but kind of lost interest in badging when MLB kept putting up the same three guys every night.
TB score 3 in the first inning to take a 3-0 lead on the Yank-Mes.
Rays are 2.5 games behind idle Boston. Angels are scoreless with Toronto in the first.
If the current standings hold, the following former Dodgers will be playing in the postseason (pending rosters, of course):
Andruw Jones
Russell Martin
Scott Proctor
Corey Wade
Wilson Betemit
Brad Penny
Adrian Beltre
Derek Lowe
David Ross
George Sherrill
Craig Counsell
Takashi Saito
Randy Wolf
Fuck Victorino. He doesn't count.
Cardinals would bring Rafael Furcal, Octavio Dotel, Edwin Jackson, and Ryan Theriot if they made it.
I may have missed one or two others.
Bobby Parnel becomes badge 255.
Still can't sort the case, though.
Sax, Bobby Parnell is my Black costume Spider-Man.
Mets win, D-Bags and Braves idle?
@ Josh S. Nice list. Andruw fing Jones. Sigh.
Talk about carrying dead weight, re: fat turd bastard.
At the stadium Vinny.
Limping down the home stretch, Vinny!
Poop
Trying to figure out why Marla compulsively live tweets sitcoms, Vinny!
Well, that's better!
You love it, Josh, and you know it.
This Juan is single-handedly outperforming the three Juans that preceded him.
Dodgers gonna go all "War of 1812" on Madison here?
@Mr. C - They're gonna destroy his house?
howdy, yall!
I always seem to miss the Dodgers scoring their runs. I hope Hiro can hold this lead. Or should I go to bet early?
Tommy has crazy fingers
Howdy, FB!
good inning, Hiro!
@mlasc
Possiblly...
I've seen quite a few futile bombardments this year, so that may also be likely.
That, and the Giants will have to wait until the tenth inning of a nine-inning game to do anything really effective.
To New Orleans!
what's poppin, Josh?
I am sad this is the last home game.
This season has mostly been steamy ball sweat but this last month or so has been a lot of fun.
...and don't fuck with Canada.
"Steamy Ball Sweat" was my nickname in high school.
One more year, Hiro!
Last haiku game forever?
Fuck Victorino!
Great Community,
but if I say any more,
Josh will murder me.
Cheeseburgers for Josh,
celebrating his last day.
Hernandez says "Yay!"
Watching Giants' feed
All Raiders between innings
Feel need to riot
I don't get haiku.
NBC Thursday
Marla goes Twitter-happy
Just watch the damn show
damnation, I thought that was going to slice away from Beltran
attaboy, Juan!
Dee Gordon is fast
Jerry is kinda dreamy
Juan gets paid next year
Tormenting Josh S
is the source of all my joy.
Shove it up your butt!
I was busy reading sitcom updates on twitter that i missed how the Doyers scored.
Klassy
Haiku not Neeebs' thing
Everyone is Neeebs' mom's thing
cc: Dusty B.
I know who the new
boss is. It will blow your mind.
Fuck Victorino!
Fat Panda is slow
Huff is what he does to food
Not who protects him
[insert fat/skinny joke I'm too lazy to think up here]
Where is DelinO?
SC ad behind home plate
Too much Mets action?
Fuck Victorino!
Really, Fuck Victorino!
Fuck Victorino!
MLAAC
It's just me with the haiku
I'm an idiot
Dammit, my last post was also a haiku. I'm an idiot.
SPEEDEE!
Wotchale!
One more syllable
makes the Czar an idiot
yet again like me
If the standard sitcom wasn't dead already, Whitney killed it.
MVP, baby!
Lasorda doesn't bleed blue, he bleeds marinara sauce.
Giants' giveaway:
Tony Bennett bobblehead
Dodgers: Sinatra?
KLAC lives again: Dodgers move to 570AM next season.
No more days off left
Go deep into their bullpen
Leave the G'nats stranded
One run in
Rancho Ackbariendo
FUCK THE GNATS!
Dodger offense pleads:
One more season Hiroki,
we can do better!
Neeebs and Mary Hart
Macking hard behind home plate
Cannot be unseen
Kemp* damn you, Josh S
Image is stuck in my head.
(* 'cause Kemp is a god)
Who is this Ethier guy, again?
I love Fernando
Treading on Kobe territory with MVP chants and triple-doubles.
Gordon with a walk
wait, what?
Six total bases
Kemp more than an MVP
New award needed
Matt Kemp is good at baseball.
heh you can see through Gordon's uniform. I am glad he's wearing a Dodgers shirt underneath it
Panda a fat fuck
Still nothing changing that fact
Good guys up by four
Pablo's shiny spot
Glitter on his cheek tells us
Wilson's a strippers.
so help me, Loney better take this hitting into next season
Mattingly's gonna wear out Jansen.
I hope he limits him after tonight
Movies FB will not be seeing: Killer Elite
@FB
We have our boots on the Gnats' throats. I don't care if we go through the whole pen and use Loney for the save. We need to put these bastards down now so they don't have a chance to advance (cc: Josh). Tragic # if we win is down to 1, right?
Thought Ackbar got one
Turned into a can of corn
Carroll will be missed
*ire rising*
*ire bubbling*
attaboy, Hiro
Ahahahaha
Zito up in Giants' pen
Mop up for millions
Burrell's from Arkansas? I bet Dusty boned his sister, and Ditty nailed his mom
@DB
1 for the West, but 3 for the WC. Atlanta's fading down the stretch.
^ Shards between them, though.
All those years in the
NL west, Atlanta owes
the Dodgers this year
attaboy, Kenley. way to work out of that
Wow.
wha? 2 walks?
HELL FUCKING YES!!!!!!!!
what else does he have to do?
MVP!!!!!!!!!!
I got nothing. Matt Kemp is a golden god!
KEMvP!
Hot damn.
M-V-P! M-V-P! M-V-P!
"That's not a bat he uses, that's a magic wand." —Vin, on Kemp
Kemp goes out in STYLE.
36!
WHOO BISON!!!!!!!
Kemp
I've decided that I'm going to have Kemp's babies.
I like the big hug he got from Barajas
man, Jerry looks uncomfortable out there sometimes
*Does a Snoopy dance*
What the hell do the Giants see in this Belt kid? His bat speed is for shit.
*Wipes egg from face*
I think Matty's greatest stat this year is his runs scored. He is leading the league by a few with absolutely nobody behind him to drive him in
cmon, Scotty, lock it down
Now we make MVParty!
I'm making party
'Cause the Giants blow again
And more Vin next year.
Cram it with walnuts, VaGiants!
Wooooooo!
I appreciate ending on a positive note.
Goodnight, Vin!
and goodnight SOSGers
All is right in the universe.
Lock down with your cock down, Scotty! Hells yeah.
Bonsoir, all!
Sounds like you're cold and bothered then, Mr. C.
In progress
PGTUP!
