Hyun-Jin Ryu (3-1, 3.35) vs. Matt Cain (0-2, 6.49).
What, you're back? It could be understood if you want to take a break after those last two heartbreakers, which followed the same script. A recap, Mad Libs-style:
- In Game (number), (Dodger player) hurt his (body part) and we anxiously await to see if he'll join the rest of his teammates on the DL. The Giants amped up the dramatics for their raucous home crowd, winning with a walk-off homer by (hated Giants player) off (useless Dodger reliever).
Let's take a look at the answers:
Game # | Dodger injury | body part | Giants hero | LP |
1 | A. Gonzalez | neck | O. Pubes | Beli |
2 | J. Hairston | leg | G. Quiroz | League |
3 |
Now it's time to guess who will play which role in today's gut-wrenching loss! Then, because it's Cinco de Mayo, drown your sorrows in (tequila/cerveza/mezcal). ¡Salud!

I'm back. Painful as last night was, I have to be back. I've been in a bad mood all weekend because of the Dodgers' woes, so the only thing that will kinda help is to win this game. While I get drunk.
Here's the lineup, kiddos:
Crawford 7
Punto 4
Gonzalez 3
Kemp 8
Ethier 9
AJ Ellis 2
Uribe 5
Gordon 6
Ryu 1
AGon could change so watch this space before game time.
Per Bill Shaikin:
"Adrian Gonzalez says today is same as yesterday: In the lineup but won't know if he's playing for sure until he goes thru pregame workouts."
DBT reporting from Tucson. I'll be catching the Topes on Tuesday night.
Hoping for the best tonight. We can't get swept in SF! No fuckin way! Not on our watch, right!?!?
Give us a 'Topes report after Tuesday's game, DBT!
Will do!
At the game, surly level pretty high, beer level low...
@Dong
You need to up the beer level. The even surlier level will naturally follow.
AGon scratched. Cruz in.
(sighs)
Revised lineup:
Crawford LF
Punto 2B
Kemp CF
Ethier RF
AJ Ellis C
Uribe 1B
Cruz 3B
Gordon SS
Ryu P
Mad libs entry:
Ethier, wrist, posey, Beli
I agree. Not enough hate in the video. And is urine really saying anything?
Way to work the count in the first inning, boys!
Matt Cain has a tiny head. And his hat looks funny.
I want every Gnats fan at the game to suddenly contract diarrhea.
And all the other fans, too, whether they are at the game or not.
And the players.
And Willie Mays.
Rancho shitsuckerdiendo!
Throw at this mofo!
Someone please tell me why I'm watching the game?
Nice camera angle, culero ESPN.
1-0. Could have been worse.
Two for flinching, Cain.
The world just isn't right without Vin calling the game.
BJ 5:17...Just why ARE we watching this game??
The ump is a blind punk
K: these announcers suck. Agreed. I hate when the game Is on espn
I swear the At Bat app sent me a notification that the Dodgers were up 1-0. I even yelled at Steiner for saying the opposite when I got in the car.
Kruk is in the booth now? Uuuggghh.
Aw shitbuckets.
Serious depression setting in.
Why do we keep getting that shitty from-behind-home-plate angle of at bats? Terrible.
Hurry Dusty, get drunk before the depression has time to settle in. It's your only chance!
@Karen
Done and done.
Where's that curve ball we saw the other night, Ryu?
I love Orel (both theirs and ours) but these other two are sounding like real gnat homers.
Broadcast is terrible, from commentary to video. What a way to end the weekend.
"He was not only safe on the front of the bag. He was safe on the back of the bag."
WTF does that mean?
FUCK YEAH! STOLEN BASE! WOOHOO!
(cries)
0-5 with RISP. Off to a torrid pace tonight.
0-7 with RISP now. We are good at something!
That's it, kids. I can't take it any more this weekend.
Look! The Gnats have a SS that can make the throw ALL THE WAY to first. Watch him, Dee.
Is this a gnat telecast or what???
They have good brew pubs in tucson. Great for drowning dodgers sorrows
View of the dodgers offense from Arizona is just as shitty as from LBC...
How many ABs will it take Ethier to figure out Lopez. Fuckin shit. Platoon his ass already
Arguably the most beautiful park in baseball?
WTF??
Kruk is looking like a toad these days.
Dee with the RBI Baltimore chop!
Bums
Top of the order in the 9th. Lets go boys!
Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.
Bums
Thank you BJ. After a really shitty game, that has put me in an even shittier mood, you're sniffing glue comment really cracked me up!!
I picked the wrong week to start believing.
On the bright side there was no walk off dinger tonight. We showed them!
Yeah Dusty and Karen. We showed them! The only consolation is that they have to return to their shitty Birkenstock sandal-wearing lives.
Yeah. Who needs two world championships in 3 years. Just wait till 2025!
PGT up!
I like to go on record in saying I've never stopped sniffing the glue or eating the paste.
