Aaron Harang (5-5, 3.68) vs. Mike Leake (3-5, 4.12)
Harang lets fly against his old team in an attempt to help his new team string together a whopping two wins. It's no secret that the Dodgers have sprung a few leaks of late, but with Urine out of the lineup, we may just stand a chance to salvage the series. The Nats have already done us a favor today, beating the Gnats handily and drawing us into a tie atop the NL West - nothing to wet the bed about, but we'll take it.
Happy Fourth of July/hideous, jingoistic cap and uniform logo day, everyone!

Giants lost! Happy fourth everyone!
Working on the 4th of July should be illegal.
Sorry to hear it, Mr. F. I pee-I-T-Y you.
Do you think Carlos Lee will bring his cattle with him to Florida?
I can't really complain. I had a lot of days off in June and I can use this holiday later in the year.
Nash to the Lakers?!?!
From The Basketball Jones...
John Gambadoro, a sports radio talk host in Phoenix, is reporting Steve Nash is going to the Lakers in a sign and trade for "multiple pick." Still waiting confirmation from Woj. Stay tuned.
Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA
Source confirms: The Suns are sending Steve Nash to the Lakers for draft picks.

OMG why don't I start a Lakers blog so I can post Lakers news on that blog?!?!?!?!?
Wow, Lakers land Nash.
Last thing the Lakers need to do is get older, but this is probably the one exception.
Happy 4th, everyone! GO DODGERS!!!
Man, Billy Ray Cyrus really sucks.
Rick Nash to LA? Hockey dynasty to follow.
I hope the Lakers can get Howard...
Oh, Steve Nash...at least he's Canadian. Bet he can skate.
Man, this GT is a pisser, Dusty!
I am at a barbecue tonight, sure to be drinking heavily. Happy Fourth everyone, stay safe and sane, and Go Dodgers!
I'm guessing that Sax is a surly drunk.
All the Sons are chatty drunks.
We are also chatty when sober, as rare as that is.
Pipe down, Nomo. That's enough chat from you.
Does the Nash deal preclude acquiring Howard?
Joey Vato says "orale"!
Harang with the ol' 1-2-3-4 inning.
Orale Hershiser?
Oh, and:
Gordon SS
Cruz 3B
Abreu LF
Loney 1B
Kennedy 2B
Van Slyke RF
Herrera CF
Treanor C
Harang P
Has Dee EVER had a 1-0 count?
Cruz 2nd? Loney cleanup? You score a few runs and....
Dee double!
Or, should I say: DD!
Wow, Dee almost hit a Chinese homerun.
That looked like a home run to me.
With is it with Reds pitchers and the pageboy look (Arroyo, Leake)?
Sweet inside-out swing by Cruz! RBI! 1-0 Dodgers!
1-0, bishes!
Ha! That was awesome.
Cruz is the new Herrera!
Vin saying "The Giants already lost today" is one of the most beautiful sounds on earth.
Abreu singles! Three straight hits — first time since 1907!
Or something like that.
Cruz runs like a Hanna Barbera cartoon.
3 straight hits? You mean you can score runs without walks and wild pitches?
RALLY KILLA TIME.
Loney single! Universe ready to implode upon itself!
Wait, WHAT?
Reds' pitching coach to Leake: "You realize this is the Dodgers?"
Adam Kennedy will now test the limits of the space/time continuum.
Throwing error by Cylk Cozard leads to another run! Are we still playing the Mets?
Dusty just swallowed his toothpick. The Reds' Dusty, not ours.
Adam Kennedy is still Adam Kennedy, but there is still something screwy going on.
Guess we're recouping all the karma in one inning.
I just started drinking. Why so many typos?
Prime Ticket changed their on-base graphic. Baserunners are now red, not yellow.
Herrera HBP. This inning contains all the offense we've been missing for, oh, the past two weeks.
C'mon, Mr. Misty.
@Orel: It's a Fourth of July thing. The runner marks are red squares with white stars, all on a blue backdrop.
We're only leading 3-0?
Thanks, Nomo. That's what I get for using a 720p monitor.
Cozart with the bobblethrow!
DO THAT EVERY INNING.
Treanor obviously from the Piazza-Karros School for Speed.
epale everyone! Happy 4th of July!
Yay 3 runs in the 1st inning.
Loved Vin's astonishment at the Hot Dog Eating Contest.
Wow! Leake could bat clean-up for the Dodgers.
The old lady sitting behind home plate with the bright orange hair kinda scares me.
Seems like forever the last time the Lakers actually drafted someone.
Defensively disastrous inning leads to no runs. How un-Dodger-like.
That last offensive inning was very Dodger-like.
Is that Misty May behind home plate?
What gives, weird holiday start times?
Epale, Y'all
If you're gonna give up a homer, make it solo. 3-1 Dodgers.
Epale, Stubbs! Aren't you in the Reds' lineup tonight?
Red Solo Bop?
Drew is from crazy Uncle Ernesto's side of the family.
Dare I say it? Harang cruising through five.
Oops, six! Only 73 pitches so far.
Mellis can't come back soon enough.
It's a good thing we scored three in the first, because it's be awful quiet since.
^ been
@Orel we are in shock we are winning, that explains the silence.
Jefferson Davis, er, Leake has really settled down since the first.
Karina: I'm in shock, but that hasn't stopped me from making noise.
meanwhile, Matt Ke,p had a RBI-double.
i miss him and that, a LOT
Dodgers return the favor with a 5-pitch inning. Still 3-1.
Beli time.
Belisario's pitches have a lot of crazy late movement.
Power outage at the Nomo-in-law's place. Thankfully, the wi-fi is on battery backup.
Got to hand it to Belisario. He's really stuck with it.
Dee Gordon hurts himself stealing third.
It's a threat!
Mark Ellis pinch-running!
The return of the mellis!
Why is Apple implying you can watch "Brave" on an iPad right now?
IBB Loney? RANCHO ARDIENDO!
Hopefully that IBB is as ridiculous as it seems
AK sac makes it 4-1!
In comes Kenley.
insurance??????
Van Slyke's got nuffin'.
One down.
Back in first!
Dodgers win! PGTUP!
Holy crap, that's hard to believe.
^The win, not the PGT.
WE MAKE FIREWORKS PARTY!
