Game 87 Thread: July 7 @ D'backs, 1p

Chris Capuano (9-3, 2.62) vs. Trevor Bauer (0-1, 9.82).

Today is part 2 in the Diamondbacks' Attack of the Trevors, with former UCLA Bruin T. Bauer taking the mound for the Diamondbacks. Hopefully Duke (ugh) product Capuano can help the Dodgers enter the All-Star break on a winning note.

Can we all stop busting a nut over the fact that homeboy is REALLY good at long toss?

Alex said...

Alex said...

JHJ moves the man over..

Dusty Baker said...

I want a Parra bobble. So I can deface it in mean and crude ways and document the whole thing.

Alex said...

Roberts robs Herrera of a RBI with a nice diving grab..

F

Alex said...

I here you Dusty - I've hated that lil shit since he bitched about getting hit at the end of last year...

Alex said...

13-2 PIT FINAL

Suck it SF!!!

Alex said...

Mr. Misty caught looking on a questionable call to end the inning...great.

Dusty Baker said...

Do we TRY not to score? Are we celibate or something?

Steve Sax said...

Treanor got jobbed there. How is Bauer getting Jordan-esque calls?

Steve Sax said...

Huey Lewis playing in between innings at Chase.

Dusty Baker said...

Miss a bat already, Cap!

Steve Sax said...

Cap getting hit hard today.

karina said...

epale everyone!

Steve Sax said...

Beach chair promotion July 17 @ the Stadium.

Why do I have the feeling that someone is going to be impaled by a beach chair in the parking lot?

Steve Sax said...

Epale k!

Alex said...

Epale Karina!

Steve Sax said...

Caster escapes, 2-0 AZ through two full

Alex said...

quick inning, thanks in part to the defense, but Cap's getting pushed around...

Alex said...

there's 4 of us here now, does that mean I can relax on the posting and go back to my hermit ways?

Steve Sax said...

Caster with a lead off group rule double to right! On the irst pitch!

Alex said...

Nice stroke by Cap! Ground rule double to lead off!!!

karina said...

@Dusty 1:41 do you want to make me angry? you know how dangerous latina women are when they are angry :)

Steve Sax said...

Steve Sax said...

Man on second with none it. Yeah, that will score.

Alex said...

Who cooked who breakfast this morning, you or Orel?

Steve Sax said...

AZ ball person biffs the easy catch

karina said...

guys, don't waste that lead off double by the ace

Steve Sax said...

Shit I thought that was strike three there on that curve to Gwynn.

Steve Sax said...

@Alex: Orel just left a note. Brutal.

Steve Sax said...

3-2 to Gwynn here

Steve Sax said...

Hell of an AB here by Gwynn

Let's hope it ends well

Steve Sax said...

Well, it didn't. One out.

Steve Sax said...

Here's Mellis

Alex said...

f-bomb from TGJ on that pop-up fly

Steve Sax said...

There goes Mellis..

Goddamn it, we're going to strand Cap there

Steve Sax said...

Fbomb from Sax on That TJ pop fly, as well

Alex said...

@Karina 1:54

We should have guessed Parra is one of your Venezuelan boy toys.

Which only means he will do something great against us...

Steve Sax said...

0-2 to Abreu already.

Dusty Baker said...

Sorry Karina.

Alex said...

anything past 3rd base is lava...

Steve Sax said...

Dodgers now 4-for-25 in the series with RISP. Criminy, we suck.

Dusty Baker said...

I just dropped a lot of F bombs and GD bombs.

And that was bc I noted I was running out of beer.

Steve Sax said...

Why even bother paying for a third-base coach? Sorry Tim, there just isn't enough work to justify your role.

karina said...

@Alex he, along with Cargo, is one of the stars of my very much beloved Aguilas del Zulia. Also, he's a homegrown export :)

Dusty Baker said...

I like homegrown exports.

Alex said...

^ homegrown?! we're fucked.

all kidding aside, i'm looking forward to what Cargo is gonna do in the HR Derby tomm

Steve Sax said...

Nice play by Hairston at third.

Uribe, already at the post-game spread, failed to notice

Alex said...

Guys, the balls are supposed hit the ground not straight into the opposing players' gloves...

Alex said...

or over the fence ferfuckssakes...

karina said...

@Alex hahahahaha and so you know, Cargo and I were born and raised in the same city :)

Dusty Baker said...

If we're not going to win this I want to see some D-bags batters get hit.

Alex said...

^agreed.

Alex said...

@Karina

It all makes sense now :)

karina said...

guys, if this Bauer fella is a former Bruin, I think we are in trouble, because since June 27th, I'm supposed to root for all Bruins.

*blushes*

but I can start rooting for Bruins in September, right?

Alex said...

why after june 27th?

Dusty Baker said...

Rooting for Bruins is a good thing, Karina!

Alex said...

After all, Eric Karros' quaff is from UCLA...

Alex said...

oh, there's a game on...

karina said...

@Alex @Dusty I received my I-20 and admission package on June 27th

Alex said...

Congrats, Karina!

What are you studying?

Fred's Brim said...

FB Reporting from Bali!
It's 5:46am and we need some runs!
Go Blue!

Alex said...

human trafficking again eh, Mr. F?

All kidding aside, isn't the interwebs amazing?

Steve Sax said...

Mayyyyyybe we shouldn't have let Capuano convince Honeycutt he should stay in.

3-run Hr makes it 5-0 AZ

karina said...

@Alex long story, something I didn't want to study but something my government will allow me to study, hopefully.

karina said...

toldja...

Alex said...

Fuck Goldschmidt.

5-0, Crotalus atroxi

Steve Sax said...

Yeah, but we will still be in first place! Ah, fuck it.

Dusty Baker said...

so you'e headed this way for sure, K?

Steve Sax said...

Mercifully, end of five. 5-0 AZ

Alex said...

Shoulder Gnome at the ravine!

karina said...

@Dusty it might be the case, my visa appointment at the Embassy is on Tuesday 17th and i'm totally freaking out about it.

karina said...

@Alex hahahahahahaha that's a great idea. I think that's the very first place I want to go when (if) I get there.

Dusty Baker said...

You'll do fine, Karina. Just remember to lie about your political views!

Alex said...

(sigh)

Alex said...

Beli?

Dusty Baker said...

Belli(gerent), I am.

Alex said...

Does anybody find it unusual that Donnie went with Beli given that the game is 5-0 right before the AS break?

karina said...

it makes sense, Alex, so he's not too rested

karina said...

100!

karina said...

@Dusty last time we went there to renew our tourist visa, was very intimidating

Dusty Baker said...

This Golden Road Point The Way IPA makes the game more tolerable, for sure.

Dusty Baker said...

@Karina

Make it happen, gurl. We need you out here!

Dusty Baker said...

At least I know I'm not going to have to re-write the PGT.

D-bags up 7-0.

karina said...

Jon Heyman says the Dodgers are a bit interested in Victorino...

Alex said...

FUCK YOU GOLDSCHMIDT!!!

karina said...

@Dusty believe me I want to be there, too

Dusty Baker said...

@Karina

It wil be easier to throw at Victorino's head when he's sitting in our own dugout!

Alex said...

hmmm Victorino eh?

How many games back are the Phillies? I'd figure with Utley, Howard coming back the Phillies woulnd't be selling; ESPECIALLY with how that schizophrenic that division has been going down the stretch in recent memory..

Alex said...

14 games back yeah...they are sellers

hahahaha

Dusty Baker said...

I have protected myself over the years w Victorino in publicly acknowledging that if we were to have Victorino, I'm sure I'd like him. So at least I wouldn't be hypocritical.

Alex said...

@ Dusty 3:41

God bless, Kuroda for actually having the sack to throw at those philly fucktards..

Alex said...

Alright 8-run rally here wego!

(cries)

Dusty Baker said...

Urine pinch-hit 8-run HR right here I'm calling it!

Dusty Baker said...

Comeback starts here!

I mean I'm coming back to the fridge right after I finish this beer.

Alex said...

that would mean he'd have to actually make his way around the bases though...

Dusty Baker said...

We could pinch-HR trot for him?

Dusty Baker said...

Rancho Uriendo!

Dusty Baker said...

Urine still hitting below the Loney Line.

Alex said...

RUN(s)?!

Dusty Baker said...

GDPGT up!

(cries)

karina said...

at least it wasn't a shutout
