Aaron Harang (5-3, 3.59) vs. Brandon "Hot Wife" McCarthy (5-3, 2.79)
Oh, is it still Interleague? Damn, I was hoping we could get out while we were still above .500. Facing McCarthy seems like as good a chance as any to keep that winning record, though, as he has missed his last two starts with nagging shoulder pain. (Of course, it could also mean he'll bounce back and throw a one-hitter.)
And did I mention he has a hot wife?
Aaron Harang (who may also have a hot wife, but Google is lacking in evidence), is looking to continue a solid June, in which he's 2-0 with a 1.89 ERA.
The Angels don't seem to want to help us out, so let's kick some A and keep ourselves on top in the West.

I still posit that both the A's and As could be considered apostrophally correct. A's may be an absurd contraction of Althetics, but it's a contraction nonetheless.
That was for Dusty. The apostrophe drives him nuts, technically correct or no.
But does he have a hot nagging wife?
Indeed. As I enjoy pedantically celebrating it(')s existence, just to piss him off.
@nickcafardo: "Dodgers scouting Youk tonight at Fenway."
Hope Youk goes 0 for 6 with three errors.
That's in response to the first statement, not the second, for those who are counting.
Given how Youk is playing, I like the odds.
Hmmmmm Red Sox leftovers? Tastes like overprice fried chicken.
Counting is for losers.
I am going to Oakland tomorrow night! Who's coming with me?!??
Giants leftovers taste like the grease trap at Norm's.
I might go, Paul!

Go OKC!
@SteveRushin: "Does 'Let's Go Heat' sound more like 'Let's Go Eat' or am I just hungry?"
I'm OK with Youk if:
-We get him relatively cheap.
-His recent poor performance is an FU to Bobby Valentine for throwing him under the bus and he'll turn it around in a new locale.
He's the Greek god of woks, you know.
I am a bit hungry, now that it's come up.
EK went with the mellow hair today.
The problem with Youkilis and Quentin is that they're both guys with injury histories. I don't quite trust Colletti's track record on guys like that.
On the sofa, Vinny!
That was quick.
Off to a great start, I see.
Harang being Harang
Crisp (.204 BA) doubles.
Weeks (.222 BA) walks.
Yeah.
Guys named Seth inherently give me the creeps.
Son.
Of.
A.
Hurrrrrrrr.
Nice D, Toni.
And it begins. 2-0 A's, one out.
Crapadoodledoo.
I had hoped that the alternating interleague wins and losses would stop here.
Harang has thrown 7489362937483020 pitches this inning.
cut the shit, Aaron
we cannot be making ridiculous errors like that
Well. That blows.
40 hundred million pitches
Harang is making Jim Tracy rethink his plan.
Let's start by getting a hit.
Spotted a guy who pitches great at home 3 runs. Le sigh.
@Mr. F
Cool! I'll be in section 114 tomorrow....I think.
take some pitches, you wieners
Way to put up a fight boys!
Zito zitoish in Anaheim
At least there's that.
On second thought maybe I'll just stay on the other side of the bay and drink for two days.
unacfuckingceptable
make these fartknockers swing! They can barely put the bat on the ball!
Harang is averaging 32 pitches an inning. I hope Jamey Wright is ready to go a few innings tonight
FB not happy
cripes - McCarthy is getting squeezed and we still can't work a walk
Hey, no more no-hitter, at least!
a hit?
"0-1 bunt groundout"
grrr
at least we won(')t get no-hit...
way to take a pitch, Dee
Dee seems to only take pitches late in games
I get home and we're already down by 3?!?!?
pull up a seat mrf...

What(')s so fuckin(')g funny Chadley?
Aaron Harang is, how do you say, ineffectual.
Harrang drinking game:
Harrang walks, we drink...
8:11 EDIT: What(')s so f(')n funny Chadley?
Seriously though, nobody should be smilin(') right now...
YAY I'M WRONG!!!
epale everyone!
Harang, get a 1-2-3 fast, this game needs to be turned around.
Epale, Karina
if only we should be so lucky...
Fucking fuck, let's get the pen already.
My nephew made the astute observation that Harang stinks in his former home parks. We'll see how he does if he pitches in Cincy.
sweet jesus, Aaron
bury this one in the backyard and never speak of it again
Looks like LeBron is on his way....
@Nomo - I am guessing 3 runs vs Cincy would be getting off easy
AJ''s been striking out a little bit more than usual
Kennedy''s been walking a little bit more than usual
Uribe, you asshole, take a pitch
Tony got two pitches into that at bat. It's a start
We are losing to a team of Uribe's and Kennedy's
KILL THE VUVUZELA.
Strong "Let's go Dodgers" chant, though.
Who came up with the plan of "We're going to one of the most extreme pitcher's parks in the major leagues, so we might as well slash away!"
"gotta be aggressive at the plate..."
^ Peter Guber
Fer fuck's sake!
"these guys are due to really start hitting, we better not pitch to them"
Elbert will fix things
I need to go to bed so we can win this. Gnite all
Come on James.
Let's sign some Red Sox!!
8 in a row and only 81 pitches heading into the 8th.
Jesus Colorado can we get rid of Uribe!!!!
Nope, that wasn't it.
Wow, we are horrible tonight.
We have someone on base!!!!
James Loney can tie it!!! Well theoretically.
Here's our look at the game: top 9, two on, one out for Loney.
Fuckin bullshit. I am so sick of Loney and Urine. Trades please!!!
It's amazing how many balls off Loney's bat look like liners up the middle but are actually grounders to the SS.
Aaugh, bullshit.
Nomo, the gauntlet is thrown. @truebluela: "Dodgers Fail McCarthy Trial, Burned By Former Red http://sbn.to/Ms2vTx"
FUCK. I had something similar.
Fuck it, I'm too tired to rewrite. PGT up!
