Congratulations, Aaron! You're tasked with the role of stopper, trying to prevent the Dodgers' first three-game losing streak of the year. (They had two by this point last year.)
Faced with the threat of Voltron, Don Mattingly will attempt to have his remaining healthy hitters merge to form Kemputron. (Though, lately, they've been as lame as Vehicle Voltron.)
Maybe giant robots fighting isn't exactly the best analogy for these two punchless offenses going at it. What can I say? It's been a long, arduous road trip and I'm out of ideas.

This long, arduous 2-game road trip to a stadium two hours south has been torture!
Gordon 6
Mellis 4
Abreu 7
Ethier 9
Kennedy 5
Loney 3
Ajellis 2
Gwynn 8
Harang 1
Let's not forget the stupid start times that should have been switched
fucking shit-ass Padres
I think Donnie pulls names out of a hat to determine the 5-8 spots.
fucking shit-ass Kennedy
I think Kennedy hitting fifth is like batting AJEllis 8th. His main function is to clear the shitty hitter batting immediately after him
THE AGE OF VOLTRON IS UPON US
If Ned Colletti ever re-signed a player he let go at some point, I'd like to see Orlando Hudson replace Adam Kennedy.
How else than random chance could one determine how to distribute those hitting spots given the names from which he has to choose?
Brown-Kopitar-Williams
Penner-Richards-Carter
King-Stoll-Lewis
Clifford-Richardson-Nolan
Scuderi-Doughty
Mitchell-Voynov
Martinez-Greene
Quick
There are a lot of hyphenated names on that team.
Go Kings!
Epale, y'all!
What a festering cesspool of a day that was. I will require a win for my continued mental well-being. Throw me a bone, Harang.
Would that be a Harangbone?
Hey-o!
Win one for Stubbs' bone!

Cmon Aaron, keep throwing strikes
bring this home without me, fellas (and ladies if they show up later). I needs some bed
Kings are offering free donuts and coffee to anyone who comes to Staples before 10:30.

Just the highlight of the Abreu triple. He totally stole my base running style from the softball tournament.

Dammit, that single is going to keep Kennedy in the lineup for another week, isn't it?
AJ NEEDS MORE VOTES
Oh my. Go Harangutan!
Was that double because I called him Harangutan?

@Gnomes 8:14p. Shit, how did I miss Pujols' second HR? My bad.
Oh got it. HR #2 was yesterday
this road trip of mine is for the birds
Where you at Sax?
Just booked my fight to Seattle for the Dodgers weekend in June. Good times.
AJ Ellis makes it 8-0 Dodgers in the ninth
@Paul, you don't want to know. No MLB team in my neck of the woods.
Also plan to make the short pilgrimage to Oakland in June. Tickets are dirt cheap.
I am gonna guess Dodge City Kansas.
NBA Tonight on ESPN: Jalen Rose just lifted his hands, and his stomach looked like it was trying to bust out of his suit. Yikes.
@Paul: Oakland in June? Hmm...
@Paul: Dodge City KS is a good guess. Alas, it's wrong.
No worries, back in lovely LA tomorrow
Lance Lynn Loses sounds good to me.
yikes where the hell was dwayne wade tonight? texting his fab fives?
Carson City, Nevada.
coffey comes in, one pitch, promptly allows base runner
Oakland in June... Think Sinatra has a song about that.
Fried Coffey.
i just realized how funny it is that Jalen Rose is behind the desk at ESPN, and Juwan Howard is still playing in the playoffs for the Heat.
Coffey works soooooo slllllloooowwwllly.
And crappily.
Coffey in, and suddenly the shutout is gone. 8-1 LA with one out in the bottom of the ninth.
Party makin'!
Bleeding stopped. 8-1 Dodgers, Final.
That felt like it went on forever.
Six game lead preserved.
That was much appreciated, blue!
PGT up!
