Chad Billingsley (4.7, 4.18) vs. Homer Bailey (5-6, 4.42).
Clayton Kershaw was the stopper yesterday, and now it's up to Chad Billingsley to nourish the iota of momentum the Dodgers have mustered. In his way stands Homer Bailey, the Christian Bale lookalike widely known for hitting Manny Ramirez on the hand in 2009...which lead to the dramatic BobbleSlam. Ah, memories.
Anyway, where were we? Huh? Oh, sorry, we were talking about chocolate?

Or is it Donnie who doesn't do that?

Loney and Urine. Together again.
Looks like the Brooklyn Nets will go with a 3 man team next year.
They'll dominate the playground.
Why do they hate IDJ so much?
Not saying it's wrong, just wondering why
@yvonnecarrasco: "Fun fact on #StarWarsNight here -- I've never watched any Star Wars films, not one. Anyone else? Is that weird?"
That fact isn't very fun at all.
Agree w Sax - great GT!
Also, I'm having a great G&T right now.
Kemp on Dodgers Live pre-game. Confirms he'll play for Rancho Cuca...(word I can't spell or be bothered to look up). Says he'll push it hard to judge where he is in his rehab. Also said the joint was sold out.
Cocomango!
Coco Loco!
Tix were CHEAP for tonight, but I opted to go tomorrow. Less cheap, but still priced right.
Less cheap, but still priced right: Neeebs' mom!
Love the sight of Yoda wearing a Dodgers cap.
Hit we cannot.
Chad gives up a leadoff single. Anyone remember his last 1-2-3 inning?
1-2-3-4, okay!
1,2,3 and to the 4
Snoop Doogy Dogg and Dre Dre is at the do
JHa "Kid" HR makes it 1-0.
JHJHR!
"Down goes Frazier" - Vin
We took the lead in the 1st. Feels weird.
We're winning? What the shit?
James Loney leadoff single. Feels...super-weird.
Urine hitting off the tee, according to Vin-god.
PISS
Uribe gives the gift right back.
"Uribe takes a look at ball four" - Vin
So weird to hear that. I didn't see it so not sure I believe it.
Juan Uribe thrown out at 2nd on a single. PLEASE EXPLAIN
Uribe sucks, but WTF are we holding guys up at third?
@orel, assumed Loney could score from second on a single and overran The base.
Props to Cruz for his first RBI, BTW.
Loney: world's slowest non-white guy
Ugh. But we are leading 2-0 AND we got the pitcher's spot out of the way. AND no bunts yet.
How is it that the Reds have more white guys than when Schott was still around?
@FS - Ha!
Cozart has Bills' number.
What has gotten into Billingsley tonight?!
Aerial cam? That's new.
Yeah, they had the "Hanger One" blimp out there.
Relax, Chadwick.
Damn, that was a nasty pitch.
Escape hatch.
I, uh, thought Bills never threw at anybody.
Someone should go to Dylan Hernandez's house and tweet about how no one ever goes there either.
How's Chad doing? Grinding again?
He's actually cruising, except for trying to murder Cozart.
@Nomo, seriously for someone who works for the LA times he shouldn't be pointing out a diminished audience.
Juan Uribe out with pulled fat?
@Orel: Pulled pork.
Ruh-roh.
I could go for a pulled-pork sandwich right now.
balls.
He's always in one batter too many.
Such a great outing ruined in one inning.
Is it just me or has Ellis been swinging at a ton of bad pitches lately?
So Chad has had two of the last three leads we've had in a week and blown them both.
Never known Chad to be inconsistent like that!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Nine outs left. Let's do this.
There's the bunt!
Juan Uribe: "Did someone say Rally's Hamburgers?"
Is Nomo's "pulled pork" tweet our most popular tweet ever?
My fake lineup from yesterday got 50 retweets. I think that's the most popular since I started monopolizing the account.
Coffey brought his gas can.
Back to losing again.
Stale Coffey. 4-2 Reds.
I totally thought we were turning it around, bummer.
5-2 Reds. Game over.
Dusty's team better beat the snot out of the Giants.
Bunt, Dee, bunt!
Bad things happen when you don't bunt, Dee.
DSB (+DSB Guy) is back. So, there's a reason to root for a loss.
mojo falling
It wasn't that we were pulling out of the nosedive, that was just the wings tearing off.
Jamie Wright is Jamie Wright.
Comeback starts now.
Don't call it a comeback, because it isn't one.
:/
This was not good tonight
