Post-Game 32 Thread: Urine Splatters Home Run


Juan Uribe Prepares for Tonight's Game

We're all speechless on a night that Juan "Urine" Uribe actually went yard. Clearly his new pre-game routine has paid off.

Chris Capuano pitched another effective game to move to 5-0, and the Dodger bats were out in force tonight against Old Man Moyer to the point where one almost felt sorry for him. James Loney had a solid night at the plate, but Andre Ethier did much of the damage, going 3-4 with a HR. With Juan Rivera out for the long haul with a hamstring and Jerry Hairston, Jr. only faring a bit better on the injury front, the offense looked to a patchwork of veterans to get the job done and they did.

Sure were a lot of people involved with the game whose names begin with the letter "J".


SoSG win streak now at 9-0. Pressure is on for those of us attending tomorrow night's matchup!

That picture is f'ing hilarious Dusty. I just snarfed my beer

Paul said...

Dodgers didn't have AJ Ellis holding them back tonight!

Dusty Baker said...

h/t to Stubbs who dug the pic up earlier today!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Ajellis needs to go to the minors so he can work his shit out.

Dusty Baker said...

Worried re Harang screwing up our streak tomorrow.

Paul said...

I'm tripled hopped.

Paul said...

Gordon needs to bunt more.

Fred's Brim said...

I am vodka sodaed! Go Blue!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

TBLA reports the the Dodgers have signed Aaron Miles to a minor-league contract.

Mmmn, creamy veteran goodness.

Dusty Baker said...

No shit, Marla? I like it!

Paul said...

Noooooooooooooooooooooo.

Paul said...

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Dylan Hernandez took a break from ordering delivery for Hank Schulman's house in order to confirm.

Unknown said...

HILARIOUS!

Dusty Baker said...

Did Dylan tweet tonight's attendance? All in a day's work.

Paul said...

Fans are watching fireworks? Worst fans ever.

Orel said...

Dodgers sign Aaron Miles to a minor-league deal!

NicJ said...

I think he was too busy retweeting other writers columns instead of writing his own.

Orel said...

And Marla beats me to the punch!

NicJ said...

I am minorly disappointed with this Aaron Miles signing.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I'm surprised he had no job before now.

Dusty Baker said...

I'm good with the Miles bit. He turned in solid performances for us the last couple seasons and knows the team. Clearly it's not like we signed Robinson Cano but given all we have to work with at the moment, the move makes sense. Nothing to lose, really.

NicJ said...

Please just don't put him at third base.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I don't recall Miles being on the team before last year.

Paul said...

As long as he stays in the minors. We have enough "veterans" up here.

Dusty Baker said...

@Marla

Last season just seemed like it last forever.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I'd rather see the Tattooed Lady over Miles.

Alex said...

brilliant picture!

GO DODGERS!

Paul said...

The tattooed lady over Miles is on sellers left forearm.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

@Paul - I thought that was Jamey Carroll, not Miles.

Paul said...

No that one is one his right ankle.

Neeebs (The Original) said...

Miles? Meh! Who does he replace? Sellers?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Just a minor-league deal, Neeebs.

For now.

Dusty Baker said...

Adam Kennedy? Please replace him.

NicJ said...

I'm guessing it's a depth thing. Sellers is a way better defender though.

Paul said...

I thought Miles was the new Flamming Menudos trumpet player #3.

Alex Cora said...

Phew. Was holding my breath the whole game hoping to keep the streak alive. Thanks for the tickets Sax! I'll pay you back in the unused and used peanuts I picked up from the ground. Go Blue!

Franklin Stubbs said...

That photo is effing perfect in every way, is it not? Full credit to the source of that brilliance here

Neeebs (The Original) said...

Actually, I forgot about Kennedy. (He is kinda forgetable.) I'd make that tradeoff.

Neeebs (The Original) said...

@Paul: That was Miles Long. Former porn srar turned bugler.

Neeebs (The Original) said...

^star dammit

Dusty Baker said...

It's MacDougal who is on his way out to make way for Miles. I'll definitely take that tradeoff.

Paul said...

Wait I thought "Former Porn Stars turned Buglars" was the band's pseudonym back in 1999?

Dusty Baker said...

45

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

46

Paul said...

cause you got that special kind of sadness
you got that tragic set of charms
that only comes from time spent in Los Angeles
makes me wanna wrap you in my arms

Dusty Baker said...

Chargers only JUST NOW retired Junior's number? Wow.

cc: Dodgers re Fernando

Paul said...

Giants suck.

Steve Sax said...

Jandre Ethier did well tonight

Neeebs (The Original) said...

@Pauly: So that's what FPSTB meant? I thought it was a Klingon word.

Franklin Stubbs said...

Former-KLINGON-porn-stars-turned-burglars! Now THAT would be a thing!
