Dodgers try to break an eight-game losing streak tonight, while the Fish try to get back-to-back wins for the first time this season. What a story line!
Readers ask, and we listen. Back to the boobies, BJ Killeen! We need all the mojo, juju, voodoo, superstition, etc. that you all can bring. Karina, we need your Shoulder Gnome. We've got the :01 GT post time. Now is the time to switch avatars, SoSG readers. Bad GT puns: check.
Make it happen, folks. This is ON YOU! Eight is enough!

"There's a plate of homemade wishes on the kitchen window sill..."
more like: "There are bases full of Dodgers, who won't get the chance to score."
Fingers crossed, rabbits foot rubbed, candles lit, incantations chanted, pentagrams drawn Dunno what else to do.
Pentagrams always help.
Let's go Dodgers ole ole ole!

@alex that's the winning avatar, that's the piece we've been missing. I'm feeling good about a win tonight. Lets go Blue!!!
Lavenders blue dilly dilly. Lavenders Green.
wtf
@DBTP Jobu will gladly take credit for a Dodgers win tonight. However, I cannot be held responsible if Ryu breaks a leg and Cleveland goes on to win the World Series...
On the sofa Vinny.
Ready for tonites W.
I think we will win this game!
On the sofa, Vinny!!!
I feel like writing on Tommy Lasorda's nuts.
Doble for E!
Skip scores E from 2B. Dodgers up 1-nil early.
Hooray!! We have 1!!
Massive one-run lead, indeed.
I walk the dogs and come back to a Deez Nuts HR?
Had to be the pentagram that made this happen.
Dee Gordon homers?
Fuck you, MLB.com Atbat. Quit screwing around.
Rancho rancho!
Come on, Skip! Grand slam right here is what we need.
I was feeling good then I heard Capuano is pitching tomorrow.
Dropped ball in LF by Diaz means another run comes in. 3-0 Blue.
Rancho futiliendo!
Rancho Whatthefucko.
Booooooo
bs.
Took a shot of this drink called tequila for good luck purposes only.
3-0 Dodgers, starting the bottom of the fifth.
I'm at a dinner party, gents and ladies, but will try to check in.
I'm also very drunk.
Kemp, with that warning track power. Fly out fir out #1.
Ethier 2-for-2? Who is playing the part of Ethier in tonight's lineup?
Ethier gets a bloop single to go 3-for-3. wow.
@Saxy: I'm thinking the exact same thing about Kemp and warning track power. Something is amiss.
*refills Jobu's cup*
@Saxy
I'm thinking the very same thing about getting drunk.
Dodgers up 5 zip in 5th.
The boobs are working.
@Karen
Or is it the pentagram?
DB...Maybe a well placed pentagram tat on the boob??
Can we fire Maury Wills or whomever is doing the base-running instruction? This is 101 shit we are fucking up. First Kemp then Skip. Why are we running ourselves out of innings?
@Karen
That is rich!
And likely the subject of the PGT.
Dandy Sandy!
Thank you, Vinny, for walking us through 1962 and Koufax. Brought a tear to the eye.
@Dusty: You're not drunk already?
I'mma go drink more. Seems to be working.
@neeebs
nope. tried earlier but failed. back on it now, tho.
Good work, Gnomes!
Kemp has his shoulder cut open. Gonzo had the same surgery and he said he will never be the same. Kemp needs to adjust but easier said than done.
Come on Dee! You are a power hitter now!
Enjoying a Grenache Blanc because I'm down with the Rhone Rangers.
Lets go Matty! Hit a homerun so we don't have to watch you run the bases!
@Paul
That, or he weighs a buck oh five wet now.
Looks like I'm middle relief. *dips fingers in vaseline*
Which hand are you using for that, Paul?
Weird to be up five runs and still feel like we suck so badly.
We're getting into those late, scary innings.
I'm a junk throwing lefty Dusty. Wait...
As I was trying to sign in, that became a four-run lead. Probably my fault.
Awesome catch!!
I'm full of Asahi and sake.
5-1?! HOLY SMOKES?!
Did someone bring the champagne if so put it one ice! Or after a 8 game losing streak should we be drinking Boone's?
Do we have to put Dusty on GT duty from now on?
Eric Stephen @truebluela 11s
Pitchers to begin LA Dodgers career with 8 games of 6 or more IP: Claude Osteen (1965), Don Sutton (1966), Hyun-jin Ryu (2013)
Thought Nomo would be on that list.
Wow, Tony Jackson is alive.
We have a formidable top 3 playoff rotation once Zach gets back. The problem is the rest of the team.
Ethier 4 for 4 so far. Talk about streaky.
Dre's found that swing!
They say it all starts with pitching. Kershaw-Greinke-Ryu could be solid for years to come.
URBIbe!
It appears that the contract I signed with that odd-looking guy with the pointy fingernails and cute little horns on his head is working. And I used the red pen he gave me!
Ethier limping in the dugout. Guess he's going on the DL next.
You sign whatever that guy wants, BJ.
WP scores Schu! 7-1!
In the words of the great Chick Hearn, the jellos in the fridge jiggling...Maybe tonite, Chick!!
Don't jinx us Steiner!
Karen. You've seen our last innings. Don't close that door yet.
Ethier is still in the game.
Dbags and rocks lost. Gnats won.
Ethier with the running and diving catch. Guess he's okay.
Cruz and Gurrier? Oiy
Another great catch. Who are these guys?
7-1? Pour me another!
Luis Cruz not letting tonight's offensive explosion affect him. GIDP.
Everyone sit in the same spots and don't move.
Kemp may have a ten-game hitting streak, but he doesn't seem to be having good at-bats. Bad K there.
Methinks I am too inebriated to do a PGT.
Karen will be by to strap everyone down.
But it's a happy drunk state.
I'm also too drunk to PGT.
Almost done with this bottle Vinny!
Sober up, boys. We deserve a happy PGT tonight.
With two out in the ninth and a six-run lead, Vin is already calling tomorrow the rubber game. Pretty cocky.
WE MAKE BLACK MAGIC PARTY!!!
The impossible dream revisited!
What is this strange feeling of lightness in my heart??
Dare I say...Happiness?
Ha! Nice casual grab by Javy to end it.
Guerra with a nonchalant grab to snag the last out
Booooooooom!
A..win?
Congrats, Quad! You get Orel!
Wait...
Groundhog Day is over! I'm crying happy tears. I never thought this day would come. Sniff sniff.
I'm being greedy but can we get two?
PGTUP!
Awoken from my self induced booze related coma,Vinny!
