Game 1 Thread: April 5 @ Padres, 4p

Clayton Kershaw (0-0, -.--) vs, Edinson Volquez (0-0, -.--)

Thank the baseball gods! After anti-climactic, off-time-zoned Japanese baseball games with MLB teams, followed by weird art-deco "stadiums" going through their own antiseptic, abhorrently-colored motions--the Dodgers finally get to do a REAL opening day, today at Petco Park.

Finally, real baseball. I can't wait!

Kershaw was 3-0 against the Padres last year, and is obviously going to be a critical part of any run the Dodgers make this year. Volquez was acquired by the Padres from the Reds in December; he was 2-0 with a 3.48 ERA in 20.2 innings this spring (but was 5-7 with a 5.71 ERA in 20 starts last year for Cincinnati). Let's start this season off on the right foot!

Go Dodgers!

Man this thread turned blue fast.

Please continue.

One of my all-time fav SoSG thread comments was MB re pornography, making the claim that "If she can't be having it [sex], she'd at least rather be watching it." Classic.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

What?

PGT up!

Steve Sax said...

Dusty Baker said...

Hey, is the PGT up yet?
