Chad Billingsley (2-0, 1.33 ERA) vs. Wandy Rodriguez (0-2 1.96 ERA)
Expect a Frosty reception from the Houston fans as the Dodgers go for a sweep of the Astros. Kemp and Ethier have been the answer to "Where's the Beef?" but maybe today we can get a Single from Matt Treanor, a Double from Juan Rivera, or even a Triple from Dee Gordon!
Let's get The W!

Brilliant GT, Gnomes!
Scary thoughts on today's game, from the MLB preview:
• Third baseman Juan Uribe is expected to return to the starting lineup on Sunday. The veteran has missed the last two games with an inflamed left wrist.
He returns to an inflamed fanbase.
Is that flame-broiled?
Business and marketing note: Hey, BK, how the hell are you letting Wendy's school you lately?
It's all about the square patties.
Dodgers have not played any team this year who currently has a winning record
BK is trying to be all classy. In some ways it works (the quality of their breakfast has improved), but most of it comes off as phony.
Dodgers lineup:
@skinnyswag9 SS,
Mellis 2B,
@TheRealMattKemp CF,
Rivera 1B,
Ethier RF,
Hairston LF,
Please God Not This Guy 3B,
Treanor C,
Billingsley P
Sax, have the checks from Wendy's started rolling in yet?
We just received a cease and desist from BK, though.
@Nomo
So wait, an attempt to be classier has meant poorer sales and therefore earnings?
I love America.
Aubrey Huff forgetting to cover second. Heh. I just keep watching that over and over. We may need to post it.
We may also need to take another look at KFP falling after being distracted by cake.
As soon as BK introduced that scary looking costumed guy, I was out.
Pigtails, on the other hand,...
Anyone else hungry?
I mean, besides Urine.
As Sax has pointed out, all Dodger opponents are sub .500 teams. Much like most of the NL west, who have also been playing many sub .500 teams.
Beating the teams you should beat is how this team now rolls.
@Dusty: we absolutely need that no-Giant-at-second-base gif...
Sax would rather see the Dodgers get creamed by Detroit and Texas while he drinks a $10 beer.
Dee Gordon turns 24 today. That's years, not months.
Nice oldellis.
Hamilton has 7 homeruns? That is so last week
@Paul: nice
That was not good.
Rivera blows a grounder to first. E3
Smooth move, Rivera.
Pretty neat: MLB GameDay says the roof is open at Minute Maid Park, and indeed is open.
That was ripped.
And bills gives up a no-doubt-about it HR to left.
2-0 Stros.
This is all Rivera's fault.
^indeed IT is open
If Rivera had gone to the police, this would never have happened.
Bills looked good. Shake it off Urine will get us even.
Here we go Juanster.
Jerry Hairston, OBP Machine.
Ump zone Is wide left. Tv left.
Really urine? Fuck.
Good effort, Uribe.
I hate how urine swings the bat. It's like he is trying to protect himself from a swarm of bees.
Nice job Jerry!
Someday Uribe will get his four seam fastball he looks for on every pitch.
What's going on? Gameday is frozen.
Wait, nevermind.
Crap. What time is the Lakers game?
Balls. Dre had leather on that one. 6 runs down. Game over.
I'm willing to sacrifice the dodgers and lakers if that means the kings win.
This is a little messed up.
Fuck The Penguins.
Happy now, Sax? We're playing a real opponent!
Oh shit! Astros score 4 runs and they only had one runner on base. #gameday
I thought Crosby was supposed to be great.
Crosby also gets a lot of concussions.
Kemp gave that ride even with a off balance swing.
What's up with the kcal scorekeeper how did the Astros score an extra run in between innings?
I doubt the Dodgers will come from six down. It's not like they're playing the Red Sox.
Someone needs to do research to see how many players that Colletti gave multiuser contracts to were still in baseball after those contracts were up.
I'm guessing it would be pretty low.
Multiyear
Billingsley can't even throw a strike to second base today.
@Orel
What about from 8 down?
I think I just made some Wendy's chili in my pants.
This has to be one of the worst defensive innings I have seen by a Dodger team.
On to the Lakers.
@paul, sadly I don't think the defense is going to get any better when you change it over to the lakers.
Snap, Nic!
Nine down. Repeat Red Sox joke.
Hey guys! I just got back from the zoo. What did I miss?
This is not enjoyable.
Looks like the Dodgers are taking the day off.
Get it all out of your system, boys.
End of first quarter 26-20 OKC. Lakers not losing as bad as I thought they would be.
We look like a bucket of dicks today.
What time is the Kings game?
Well the lakers are toast.
5 I think.
I thought I was watching the Lakers not the Sparks. #Jordan Hill
Can't wait for the Kings' game today!
(ignores other local sports teams)
Laker comeback.
37-35 OKC
RonRon is back! That's what you get for fucking with Artest.
No more world peace.
Seriously Mike Bremen fuck off.
No more world peace.
Tell Breen to get off his high horse.
Fuck him up, RonRon!
Meta World Hate!
What the blazes!? I emerge from my Nyquil-induced coma to a 10-0 deficit.
Yes, 5pm start for the Kings game today. Meanwhile, I hope the Caps beat the shit outta Boston. Glad the Flyers won.
Looking like Boston/Washington will go to game 7.
Can the Lakers amnesty RonRon after the game?
Fer crap's sake, Orioles, come on!
Caps score!
At least this game is over.
Although I do now have a hankering for Wendy's chili and a burger.
No shit. I really want a frosty.
A frosty cold one will have to do.
When did we get Brian Grant back on the Lakers?
