Chad Billingsley (10-9, 3.44) vs. Nathan Eovaldi (4-8, 4.03).
Bowled last night with kids from LA Children's Hosp. at
— AJ Ellis (@AJEllis17) August 24, 2012@jamesloney_7Event. They were the real VIPs.Giants series put in perspective.
OH MY GOD A.J. thanks a lot for providing an antidote to the irrational feelings of hatred and impotence brought forth by being swept by the Giants. Geez, what a buzzkill! Let us wallow, wontcha?
Anyhoo, Hanley begetter Nate Eovaldi gets a chance to thank his former team for getting him on "The Franchise" this season, while the rejuvenated Chad Billingsley looks to make it seven straight wins. Time to start a new streak!

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 332 of 332On the Gaudin intro, he was talking about his 7-inning minor league perfect game against the Suns, and the only batter who got to a 3-ball count was Shane Victorino (as he appeared).
I would transcribe, but I am Tivo-disabled.
That Steve Finley flashback video just reminded me how ugly the outfield wall was back then
It was hideous, but Gahddamn, that was an awesome game.
That was the year the had the Cy Young winners on the outfield wall, IIRC.
Hup your wide ass back to the dugout, Chuck.
Carlos Lee is too fat to stretch that into a double. Doesn't he know that?
Stretch marks are the best he can hope for.
Good thing you got that extra base, wasn't it?
Get a good enough look at that HR, Stanton? Throw at the next asshole that comes to the plate, Wright.
He could have gotten a knob blister on his way to first.
I tomorrow's game has already started, in fact.
Fooking Giants. Lose already.
Dre 3-3 tonight.
^think tomorrow's
How does one email the truck and get a message to Vin?
5-2 Gnats
@Dusty: It's the blister
No shit, GLG. Since that's the case, we should cut off Urine's hand and watch the remarkable increase in offensive production.
Los Angeles Dodgers @Dodgers
RT @shawngreen15: The fans of L.A. have been asking for this type of owner for yrs now; they need to show support by selling out every night
EVERY NIGHT
Who knew Shawn Green was tweeting? I just subscribed to him on the official SoSG twitter feed.
Not the fake SoSG feed.
@DBT
I'm almost sober!
Braves get a sol HR to make it 5-3.
3 home runs for ATL. All solo shots.
Holy Christ, his 'stache is terrifying!
@dusty... Damn that sucks
Dylan Hernandez @dylanohernandez
Adrian Gonzalez will wear No. 23 with the #Dodgers, the same number he wore with the #Padres. Kirk Gibson wore No. 23 with the #Dodgers.
It's a strange feeling indeed, DBT. I do not like it one bit.
Didn't someone have 23 this year?
Not that you don't give the man the number he wants, just curious.
Speaking of buzz kill - Adam Kennedy.
That's right, Abreu did for a while.
Does anyone else feel kinda strange about becoming the "Yankees of the West" I always rooted for the underdog Dodgers. It will take some getting used to.
Yeah, Abreu. So that won't be a problem.
Wow nice sinker from League
I said the exact same thing earlier, DBT. Beats the shit out of "Oakland of the South"
One half a year of spending, some of which simply brought us up to what we should be spending, does not make us the Yankees.
That's true, but I don't have my finger on the pulse of where the ceiling really is yet.
Jesus hated the Yankees before they had an astronomical payroll, anyway.
Where is your finger, then, Stubbs?
Yeah you guys are right. We should have a big payroll. It's fucking LA! But it's still weird.
Sweet, sweet bourbon-y goodness.
Buchanans 12 year blend for me. Oh yeah....
Everyone is ok if the Lakers spend a ton of money (and always have), why can't the Dodgers?
Excellent point, GLG.
On that note, I'm hitting the booze again.
I wonder how much of Crawfords 2013 contract is covered by insurance?
Blanton's. This shit is as good as Joe has been terrible.
GLG that's righ!
Talk about bad contracts... How bout that Zamrano fuck
Oh I have always been around Dusty, I have just been lurking in the shadows
My god that's a terrible 'stache, Dumbrano. You deserve everything bad that happens to you just because of that 'stache.
That's creepy, GLG! I feel so dirty. *closes blinds, pulls cover over eyes*
Geico!
Bison, bishes!
The goggles have night vision
Bills has a tender right elbow.
Put a little Montreal seasoning on that thing and cook it til medium rare, I say.
Now I'm scared shitless. Are you in the house, GLG, like When a Stranger Calls?
Woohoo!
Dre Day! Dre goes 4-4. Must call father-in-law to give him shit about wanting to trade Ethier.
Pile it on, boys.
The comments are coming from inside the house!
Offense!
Heh Cliff...exactly. I think I see a shadow from the back room when I look at the glass door in the back.
Turns out it was Urine going through my fridge.
I won't say much more, but I wouldn't turn around if I were you
Cliff @9:51: Nice!
More runs!!!!
You're just playing with me before you gruesomely murder me, GLG. Again.
@ DBT at 8:34 p.m.
Bills is making party by getting a diagnosis on his elbow. According to Vinny a couple of minutes ago, it's Bills' right elbow that's an issue. How egregious that issue is remains up in the air.
Am I concerned? Hells, yeah. I'm concerned that Fried Chicken Beckett will be a bigger piece of the deal than was originally planned. Crap.
For the short term, I'm good with us adding two more runs.
I wonder if Chad will hit the DL again.
last licks for the Barves coming up.
10-4, good buddies!
*Citizens' Band humor, circa 1976*
Did we just score, like, 7 runs on one play?
So a dribbler that goes 70 feet scores 3 runs. It's just one o' them days, Marlins.
Someone describe!
That last pitch would have been a wild pitch, but NO ONE WAS LEFT ON BASE TO ADVANCE! Hahahaha!
@orel
Goofy-ass play:
Cruz hit a dribbler to between the pitcher and third, throw to first was wide, so Ethier and Kemp both came around to score. Throw to third was also off, so Cruz was able to jog it in as well.
More runs!!!
And the throw to third was only vaguely even called for in the first place.
Goofy-ass play is a phrase that requires extremely precise hyphenation.
@ Orel
My husband (Mr. Beardingsley)and I watched the Mount David meeting on the mound with Bills, Honeycutt and the team. His first words to me: "Your boy may have to go under the knife. This may be the last time you see him until 2014."
WAAAAAAHHHHH!!
*bawls*
Yep. The second throw was pure panic.
HAHAHA at Stubbs.
Barves Barve.
Barves lose.
Braves need to get their asses off the floor tomorrow.
I need to get my ass off the sofa tomorrow.
Is barves the plural of barf?
And Stubbs brings the grammar humor!
What ISN'T funny about syntactic ambiguity, Orel?
Mrs. Beardingsley: Feel free to give your husband a swift kick.
No-thing!
Syntax humor is all the rage with the kids these days.
@ Orel
Will do.
That, and the clinching Scrabble entree from Mr. Jack in the latest Jack in the Box ad: NONOOKIE.
"Nonookie? What's that — ohhhhh."
What's the problem, Gnomes? Did you lose your iPhone and iPad?
Mrs. Urine's winning Scrabble word: NOMUNCHIE.
At least you're still not at work, Nomo.
You're still not at work, are you?
I'm sure Choate never got made fun of at school. He was classmates with Dick Tainte.
Nah, just busy getting ready for Nomo Jr.'s party.
When Mrs. Nomo asks why I'm always online, I can just point to today.
Blow up some friggin balloons already, Gnomes.
#BadFatherComment
If I were at work, being online wouldn't be an issue.
Sympathy Uribe appearance
Ladies and gentlemen...Juan Uribe.
Speaking of Uribe...I have to go take a leak.
Party at Nomo's house!
Has it gone without noting today that should this trade be consummated, Uribe would ONCE AGAIN escaped a roster culling? What's the guy got to do?
I want a backpack, Vinny!
Speaking of Uribe, I have to eat a horse.
^escape
I may be slightly drunk.
Vin needs to make party and start telling dirrty jokes. You know he's got a shitload of good jokes
Quelle surprise.
@ Orel
hawhawhaw
Uribe has the dirt on someone. That or the Giants attached some kind of voodoo curse to his fat ass when he got signed.
Uribe, Andruw Jones, and a little nuber walk into a bar...
I may take Jr. to the game on Sunday, then steal his backpack.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SON! *yoink*
Well, folks, I've got to leave you and Vin's raunchy jokes by now and get some some zzz's. Tomorrow and Sunday will be busy days at work, just as today was.
Just please hold this lead, bullpen!
*prays*
Excellent use of the Oxford comma, DBT.
Night, CB!
We make long-awaited party!
WOO HOO
Get well soon, Billz. Night all!
Uribe has (potentially) outlived:
Abreu
Gwynn
Lindblom
Eovaldi
Hairston
Guerra
Hawksworth
Guerrier
Lilly
Sellers
Coffey
Gordon
Sands
Loney
De Jesus
De La Rosa
Fife
Van Slyke
MacDougal
How is that possible?
Zuh?
Hrm?
I'll see you guys again in 2013
Just checking because I don't want to think for myself: how is it that Urine survives? Do the math for us, pls.
Get out of my house, GLG!
PGTUP!
Fun Game Thread, kids!
Awesome GT guys. I may just stay here in Siberia for a while.
