Game 156 Thread: Sept 27 @ Padres, 7p

Chris Capuano (11-11, 3.74) vs. Casey Kelly (2-2, 5.55).

Although we've come, to the end of the road (trips), still I can't, let, go. And not just because Michael McCary won't reunite with the rest of the band. No, it's because the Dodgers keep stringing us fans along this season, clinging to a slim tragic number of four with 13 outcomes left in the season.

Could the Dodgers go 6-1 while the Cards go 2-4? It's possible, given the Cards play the Nationals and the Reds, since we're facing a rookie pitcher with just 24 innings under his belt (on the other hand, Capuano hasn't had a win since August 12, eight starts ago). But it's unlikely (listed a 0.9% chance). And I don't know if it's worse to just get this elimination thing over with now, rather than have to face getting knocked out by the Giants at home next week. Can I see what's behind curtain #3 instead?

Pass the Punto homie!

Curtain #3 is Uribe in a Speedo.

Paul said...

His speedo is the curtain. Boom!

Franklin Stubbs said...

You'd think we'd be happier with as little of Uribe as we've seen, recently. What voodoo shit did he pull to keep this team from hitting?

Paul said...

I hope we win tonight. I like dragging out the pain.

I don't know I hate those giants and will love to see our guys whip them playing under no pressure to win.

spank said...

Steve Sax said...

All right Shane, whatchoo got?

Cliff Beefpile said...

Browns are makin' a late push. This shit ain't over, Spank! Jordy Nelson's gonna finally pull his head out of his and have a big game on Sunday.

Steve Sax said...

Shane HBPs to bring in a run, which is probably the best possible outcome we could have designed.

2-0 Dodgers

Cliff Beefpile said...

Cruuuuuuuuuuuuz!

Cliff Beefpile said...

Wait, you can't score this many runs in an inning can you?

Franklin Stubbs said...

I'll fucking take it.

Neeebs (The Original) said...

It WOULD be cosmic symmetry if they had a comeback just to come a game short,

Orel said...

Another double for Matty, but he still looks like he's playing through pain.

Orel said...

A-Gon RBI! 6-0 Dodgers.

Wright HBPs Quentin to force in a run.
