Post-Game 33 Thread: Marine Layer Can't Stymie Dodgers

DODGERS 2, ROCKIES 1

As unexpected, Aaron Harang and Juan Nicasio put on a pitchers' duel tonight, Harang allowing one earned over eight and Nicasio allowing one earned over seven. On a night where Matt Kemp (twice!) and Juan Uribe watched hard-hit balls die at the warning track in center field, Tyler Colvin managed to defeat Mr. Layer for a solo homer. But the Dodgers got it done with small ball — microscopic ball, really. Uribe singled in Andre Ethier in the fifth, and in the eighth Tony Gwynn Jr. followed a James Loney squib single and, yes, an Ajellis sac bunt, with an RBI flare single, giving Harang the win after Kenley Jansen mowed down the heart of the Rockies' order for his third save. Credit also to Loney and Uribe for fine defensive plays. Dodgers avenge last week's series loss and go for the sweep tomorrow!

Steve Sax said...

So much for that insurmountable 3Q lead.

spank said...

Kobe ain't right.

spank said...

I liked George Lopez as the sketchy mayor on Reno 911

spank said...

69-68 Lakers at the end of the 3rd quarter. grab your Depends y'all.

spank said...

Dusty Baker said...

Denver went on 22-7 run as soon as I got home. This one, it appears, is also on me.

Fred's Brim said...

Pau and Brown are not amigos right now

Fred's Brim said...

Steve Blake - unbelievable. How is that guy in the league and Juan Dixon not?

Dusty Baker said...

If Blake were any whiter on that 2-1 break I don't know how he'd do it.

Hideo Nomo said...

My neighbor's TNT feed is a good 10 seconds ahead of mine. Their screams are spoilers.

Dusty Baker said...

@Spanky

You're clenching Marla?

Fred's Brim said...

Javell McGee feeling the effects of the Marine Layer

spank said...

BLAKE!

NicJ said...

If I see one more "Andre Miller old man at the gym" joke I'm got to lose it.

Dusty Baker said...

Steve Bleeeezay!

Cliff Beefpile said...

Lakers are getting carried offensively by Steve Blake and MWP, just like Mike Brown drew it up.

Orel said...

Whose fans are more frustrated right now?

spank said...

Steel Reserve sponsors the flagrant fouls.

Steve Sax said...

85-80 Lakers, 2:53

Fred's Brim said...

Neeebs' mom has the same effect as leaving a tent up in the yard for too long

Steve Sax said...

(forgive me guys, all I gots is this espn gamecast on my iPhone.)

(these weekends in a Turkish prison need to stop)

Fred's Brim said...

Fred's Brim said...

@Sax, do the Turkish crime, you do the Turkish time

Fred's Brim said...

^Men

Steve Sax said...

Giants beat Snakes 5-2; Padres over Phils 2-1

Dusty Baker said...

@FB

Nice tent/yard imagery!

Steve Sax said...

Dodgers 6 up on SF, 6.5 on AZ, 7.5 on COL and 10.5 on SD

Steve Sax said...

@FB: yes. This is not a Turkish "delight"

Orel said...

Lakers looking they'll win the privilege to get stomped by the Thunder in the second round.

spank said...

BEAN!

Orel said...

Scimitar!

Cliff Beefpile said...

Wow, that was a tough shot by Kobe.

Dusty Baker said...

Thunder are like Nuggets squared. We're going to look like blind schoolgirls against these guys.

spank said...

@ Orel

Never doubt the Lakers,holmes. We champs not chumps. #16

spank said...

You too, White chocolate.

spank said...

Flop

Steve Sax said...

Wow, 19 pts from Blake tonight. Would not have predicted that.

Dusty Baker said...

I'm with em til the end, Spank. Just calling this next round like I see it.

#LakersForLife

Fred's Brim said...

Bynum and Gasol have to play their best. That seems to be the on-paper only advantage the Lakes have for the next round

Dusty Baker said...

Wish Fish were here.

Steve Sax said...

Mike Brown lives to get another criticism from Magic

spank said...

All we need is corazon.

Fred's Brim said...

Q-Bee!

spank said...

I'm getting more drunk.

Dusty Baker said...

We need corazons de campeones.

Dusty Baker said...

I am not getting any less drunk, to be certain.

Paul said...

*sticks dick in the mashed potatoes*

Dusty Baker said...

I wish I'd known it was going to be that kind of party, Paul.

Paul said...

Got busy in Frisco fooled around in Fresno

spank said...

@ Primo

Were they garlic mashed?

Dusty Baker said...

Got over on Neeebs' mother cuz you know she never says no

Paul said...

Garlic stings. I better go to the Dr. on Monday. I swear Dr. It was the potatoes

Dusty Baker said...

Oh, wait. Was that your Friday night, Paul, or were you quoting Beastie Boys?

Paul said...

Both D Money.

spank said...

Count Da Money

Paul said...

One beer ha ha ha. Two beers ha ha ha

Dusty Baker said...

You look like the piss boy, Blake Griffin.

Dusty Baker said...

Always weird to have way more commments in the PGT than in the GT.

Hideo Nomo said...

How was it in da club tonight, Dust?

Orel said...

See what happens when you go to the game, Dusty?

Dusty Baker said...

Club was suh-weet. Great vibe, excellent booze variety, and we rocked some incredible appetizers. Always worth doing a few times during the season. Bartender said this year picked up big time over last year's Stadium Club crowd.

Dusty Baker said...

@orel

Right. 547 percent less masterful insight in the GT.

spank said...

I blame A.J. Ellises ineffectiveness for the lack of enthusiasms in tonight's GT.

Paul said...

Go Kings!!!

spank said...

Go Yao Mings!

Paul said...

Go Canadian Neeebs! Who is gonna buy me ticket?

Dusty Baker said...

The graphic for this PGT just keeps cracking me up.
