Aaron Harang (1-1, 5.40) vs. Mike Minor (2-1, 3.10).
Minor's on a roll, having allowed one unearned run to the Brewers over 7 1/3 innings, then following that by holding the Diamondbacks (sans Upton and Young) to two runs over eight innings. The NL-best 13-4 Dodgers counter with Harang, who anchored the Dodgers' sole win in Milwaukee last week.
But all eyes will be on the Dodger bats, which cranked out 15 hits against the Braves last night. Will Andre Ethier and James Loney continue their hot streaks against a lefty? Will Loney even start? (UPDATE: No.) Will Juan Uribe's tender wrist actually force him to continue making contact? Can Dee Gordon and Ajellis keep getting on base? Will SoSG readers Alex and Bryan send us pictures of themselves in a Dodgers sleeved blanket? The tension is killing me!

So Guerrier goes to the DL? I bet FB is happy.
I also think this means the Dodgers automatically win the Chin-Lung Hu trade.
Loney sits.
Nevermind. I remembered the poem wrong.
Reds take an early lead 2-0 lead on the Giants. BY my calculation the Giants will reach maximum suckage at about 7:42 pm.
Fucking Artest.
My favorite non Dodger pitcher on the mound for the Reds. Not really but much respect.

Darvish in trouble after a Jeter bunt.
SF still down 2-0 to the Reds, in the sixth
By my calculations the Rangers are pretty good.
Reds plate six in the seventh, now lead 8-0
9-0 Reds through eight innings
Final in Cincinnati: Reds 9, Giants 2
Final in Pittsburgh: Pirates 5, Rockies 4
Arizona and San Diego both scoreless in each of their respective matches
Half soaked from my kid's bath and listening to the idiot Brave announcers Vinny!
Leadoff double for the Braves.
That's bad.
Harang wriggles his way out of it!
That's good.
Can I go now?
(Actually, I do need to go.)
(That's bad.)
Buh Bye!!'
RBI machine. I guess.
Chip Carey called that homerun like it was a national tragedy.
Rivera does what Kemp could not (this time)!
2-0 Dodgers in the first
Clean single Jerry!!
Nice single by the guy with one of the worst Twitter handles ever.
Yeah. Uribe being Uribe.
Throwing the bat at the ball will only get you so far.
Watching the game on KCAL,Vinny!
#FreeGameOfTheDay
Hey, we're winning!
I'm starting to warm up to Hairston. Not really.
Rivera's night so far. Nice play.
Nice play 1B.
Safe.
Damn, Larry.
Larry is always dialed in on his birthday.
Please dont fall behind the .178 hitter.
Fuck.
Bunt. Fools.
Somebody get Kenley warmed up.
Damn. Tied score.
Are we all in agreement that the IBB to Heyward with two out was moronic?
Hey, we're losing! Fuck!
Stoopid free game of the week!
RUN(S)
Kemp baserunning fail
Seriously Kemp needs to just hit homeruns so he doesn't have to be on the basepath.
GAMEDAY, WHY YOU CONFUSE ME?
Uh oh. Loney time.
Rivera haters might get their wish here.
Can't they use a pinch runner instead of putting in Loney right now? Please!
i'm a little disappointed i didn't get the chance to tell Mattingly "I told you so,mutt".
I think we used up two weeks worth of Uribe hits last night.
Ellis helping us clear the Kennedy spot.
Really you are playing matchup against Kennedy?!?
Is Justin Sellers dead?
Kennedy? Why?
We'd get more offense out of Kennedy at this point.
Wow I forgot about that Kennedy.
@Paul
Just don't forget about Dre.
That was close.
Uh oh Larry is up again.
Crafty Larry gets a walk. He will be a the reagle beagle tonight.
Epale, mofos!
we need some runs up in dis bish and i don't mean the port o potty type.
Okay, I'm back. What? Tied up???
Rivera pulled his hammy?
Kemp walks. Let's not make this a base fuckup hat trick.
Rivera hits his first HR and then gets a hammy injury.
And so we have FJL.
Looked more like his calf
Loney is not clutch material
Dammit James, I blink and you're out
Why is Michael Cooper not included in the KCAL 9 Lakers montage?
Kenickie?
We are being pasternikied.
3 singleS the other way. Uribe impression.
Guerra Ks Bourn!
That pitch was nasty.
I had a pasternicky sandwich for lunch.
Don't let Larry bat!
I'm not very well positioned to make an informed comment about this game.
Dennis Gilbert chilling like a villain a couple seats from Neeebs behind home plate..
DAMMIT!
Dammit, Kemp should have had that one.
Blerg.
Kemp with the glove fail.
Don't no how Kemp didn't glove that one.
#Beastfail
Arggggghhhhhh
Worst part is listening to Chip Carey orgasm. Is really Larry Carey?
Don't worry, guys, Urine's coming up!
Heat.
TV radar says Kimbrel at 98. Vin says 99.
Man, he just toyed with Ethier.
Well, we're fucked.
Nice at bat,Ethier.
Hairston and Uribe. This can only end well.
This is not good
@Sax - I thought you wanted the Dodgers to play winners?
Hairston singles!
Take us home fatboy!
Hairston one-out single!
Walkoff Uribe HR right here...
Of course Hairston gets a hit
Wow Uribe bailed on that pitch.
come on urine. get all metta world on the fastball.
Breaking pitches to Uribe.
This is the moment Uribe has been dreaming about. Er, the moment unrelated to food.
Uribe: it's all downhill from yesterday.
Good effort, Uribe. Have a donut.
Mr. Walk walks off here.
I felt the backwind on that strikeout 300 miles away.
Except at the team spread.
I'll streak if Ciellis hits a homer.
I was half right.
Gift walk!!! Let's go TONY!
Let Guerra bat. Fuck it.
It's all up to Gwynnster.
"The firm of Ethier & Kemp close to going out of business tonight." —Vin
Nice.
Let's get 'em tomorrow.
Boooooooooooooo
MFPGTUP
i guess we lost.
Ugh ugh ugh.
It felt like a loss from the moment Larry hit it out.
I hate Uribe again.
