Chad Billingsley (2-1, 3.04) vs. Stephen Strasburg (2-0, 1.08).
Rev up the hype machine! Sons Dusty, Sax and yours truly and reader John G will be in the house to check out the major-league debut of the first pick of the 2010 draft, 19-year old Bryce Harper. Mr. Eyeblack, who signed a five-year, $9.9-million contract, is the most hyped prospect since, well, starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg. The 23-year-old Strasburg, the first pick of the 2009 draft, signed a four-year, $15.1 contract and has already undergone Tommy John surgery in his young career. Is he back on track for greatness? Will Harper live up to the hype? The Dodgers will find out tonight.

Hit us up in the GT if you want to say hi!
Hi.
John G up in dis bish!
Heading over in a few. I'm thirsty.
I just noted on TBLA's blog roll (left-hand side):
Sons Of Steve Garvey (Assorted Bastards)
So well said, Eric.Thanks for the compliment!
Hey! My parents were married!
To each other even.
Drinking a giant homemade gin and tonic on the way to the Yard, Vinny!
(not driving, MADD!)
Have a blast at the yard, compadres. This one has the makings of something good.
Heading over now!
Let's get one tonight! Go Blue!
Kings game thread insert here.
1-1 after first period. Quick looking sharp. St. Louis came out strong. Kings came on in the last 6 mins of the first.
Lets go Kings.
Caught Harper in BP. Can swing the bat, a little.
Where is everybody? Other than at the game.
NPUT with a pic of tonight's bobblehead.
Watching the game at Buffalo Wild Wings.....
Strasburg's on a pitch count, right? That's how we got past him last time.
Just so I'm clear: We're rooting for Blue (singular) and against Blues (plural).
Christ, Juan.
Spank, no MLB Network?
Kings wim 3-1
Woo Hoo!
^win. This phone is killing me.
Wimming!

Harper looks like a douche. I already don't like him.
Man hilarious that someone's ass will forever taint the video of Harper's first hit.
Via TBLA: "Dave's Johnson on Bryce Harper..."
And I laughed.
Heh. You said "taint".
Steiner damn near killed me on the call of the play at the plate. "He is...
...safe!"
He said ass taint.
Kings win!
Kings win indeed! You know you're things are going your way when Matt Greene scores the GW.
Oh, Dee. You're lucky the team completely banked shortstop on you this year.
What's that make, a goal for Penner in each of the Game 1s? That in and of itself calls for celebration.
^^ minus you're
Untie this bitch, Matty.
Penner had a nice game.
Clippard looks like Martha Plimpton from 'The Goonies'.
A steal? Please, that's so 2011.
jeeze, at this rate Guerra might be in the minors soon.
Well, so much for the closer situation being solved.
Javy's fucked.
One run again Can we trade for Manny?
If Loney can homer...
This guy is so wild we might get some runners on.
Just don't do anything stupid, Urine.
Uribe is due for a homer.
I think someone realized the game rode on Uribe's shoulders and that made him snap.
@ Nomo 7;40pm
alrighty then
Good luck getting Angel Hernandez to give us a call.
Wow!!!
YOU CAN'T SPELL URIBE WITHOUT RBI
AW SHIT!
Lezgo, Ajellis!
Let's go Jellis!!!
We don't have any speed on the bases.
Dammit ump! Get outta the way!
BOOOOOOOOOOO
Fuck you, Adam Kennedy.
Fuck Kennedy.
KENNEDY? FUUUUUUUUCK.
GODDAMMIT
OK, the Dodgers really need to read up on how to take out a catcher.
Oh man, not Dee. NOT DEE.
Adam Kennedy sucks
Dee, please don't swing at balls at your feet. Thanks.
Dead meat.
This game is messed up.
I've got a 1000 channels, not one carrying this game
FUCK YEAH!!!!!
Yeah!!!! Uribe you slow ass!
Thank you baseball gods for taking it out of Dee's hands.
WILD BOYS!!!!
It was the fear of Dee that caused this.
Uribe waddled down the line
*Throws an Oh Henry bar*
I don't even know anymore.
OH MY FREAKIN GOD
This Is becoming a National Tragedy.
Now that's weird.
Fear the Gordon
National Tragedy? Isn't that the new Nic Cage movie coming out this summer?
Gor the Nlue Tony!!!
If John Lackey and Darin Erstad had a kid he'd look like this new pitcher.
Look for DEE-LITE post later.
All this excitement almost woke up Penelope! So far the dodgers are 1-0 since she was born!
Yeah Cage tries to decode Bryce Harpers haircut
Czar - Nic Cage has 23 movies coming out this summer as part of his bankruptcy recovery. And none of us will see any of them
gor it well
nlue rules
you better get a hit motherfucker.
i haven't seen Oakley's like that since the early 90's.
SHIT!
Boooo! i'm outta here.
Crap. Extras.
No nlues. The french rat gets the out.
All right... off to Golden Road bar.
Yes, it's a real place.
At least we get Kemp and 'Dre in the bottom of the 10th.
Off to watch the Kings replay.
Those Oakleys are awesome. Oooooooh yeah! dig it!
*waves down the street at DelinO*
I think that is a typo and Delino is headed to the Golden Rod bar.
I'm findin it very hard to function right now.
Too many letters on Lombardozzi's jersey. Slows his bat speed way down.
Where Bryce at?
@ Paul
IT was a typo.
IT's actually the "ENORMOUS DONG" bar.
Next to the Blue Oyster.
I can't stand up so I'm staying put.
Just realized one downside of this game.... Clippard was in line for the win. And he's on my suddenly resurgent Fantasy team.
Big Dong Jackson opened a bar?
Jamey!
I'm going to add Derrick Rose to my team.
I really want this to end quickly.
I'm going to add Axl Rose to my team.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! BISON BISHES!
*faints*
Make that party!!!
Now that's a spicy meatball.
Dodgers win. Kings win. All is right with the world.
Thank you, says Javy.
Everyone beyond Dodger fans seem oblivious why Kemp gets the chant MVP.
Best game since 4+1?
WE MAKE WALK OFF HOME RUN PARTY!!!
Thanks Nomo.
Annnnd I woke her up with my carrying on...
Holy crap. What a great game. Go blue!
