Some guy started the game for the Nationals, and did pretty well all things considered (5.0 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 4 Ks, 0 BB), in his first game back in over a year. Meanwhile, Ted Lilly had stoked the Nats to a 3-0 lead in his 5.0 IP (4 H, 3 R, 2 ER, 3 BB, 9 Ks), putting the Dodgers in a bit of a hole.
But Andre Ethier was armed with a shovel this time, ready to dig the Dodgers out. Ethier had 4 RBI, two of them in a three-run sixth inning, and then two more in a two-run ninth inning. Rod Barajas added two RBI on his own on a seventh-inning double, and the lone other run (back in the third) was from our MVP machine, Matt Kemp (1-for-4 with 2 runs scored).
Javy Guerra had a very shaky ninth inning, bringing the tying run to the plate with only one out, but the Dodgers clung to yet another come-from-behind victory, to even the series at one a piece.
UPDATE 11:34p: Oh, and about tonight's game: Eric Stephen of TBLA and Mike Petriello of MSTI are really, really hungry. Somebody send those guys some bacon, already (screenshot from TBLA).

BAL@NYY just getting started now. Holy smokes, that's a laaaaate start.
AZ down 8-3 to the Rox, who ended up getting SEVEN runs in the bottom of the eighth. Well done, 'Zona.
Late start indeed. Nevertheless, I will end up watching it.
71 badges fellows I will be happy with 100.
I'm on 157 badges. I keep getting a lot of doubles. They need to do better job of mixing them up every night.
Jumped up to 365 badges, one for each day
4-3 Giants at the end of seven.
I'm going to go get in my workout, so I can DRINK after that
DB your right with the doubles. It is the same players going for the same shit.
366 badges
it's leap year, baby
SD puts a late scare into it but the Giants come away with a 6-4 victory.
Baltimore and Yankmes tied at 3 bottom 7th.
@Sax
Like that attitude. Work out so you can drink more. Or do like I have done here and there: get on household elliptical with a water bottle full of gin/tonic.
almost 2am ET, and O's @ Yank-Mes is still slogging along (and not a bad game, I might add)
5-3 Yanks after 7 innings
FINALLY a Dodger gets the Premier Play of the Night on Quick Pitch: Justin F'n Sellers.
@Dusty: Haven't tried that combination yet on the elliptical.
Funny that we're both still watching this late-night east coast fest, btw. I'm just thinking about how the NYT won't have the story filed in time, just like the west coast scores--suck it, Yankees fans! Now you know how it feels!
Pass the beer nuts.
interestingly, the only badge of the six O's-Yanks badges avail today which I don't already have is the Russell Martin one (unless he's alphabetized incorrectly)
Or maybe that's not so interesting.
Corey Wade is the winning pitcher.
(cries)
And the Yanks win it, 5-3.
Here are some words that rhyme with Corey: Gory, Story, Allegory, Montessori.
@Josh I hope you and I can get married someday
