Game 57 Thread: June 4 vs. Padres, 7p


Last night's milestones.

Ted Lilly (0-2, 4.26) vs. Clayton Richard (1-5, 7.86).

Don't get too cocky, Dodger fans. Sure, Richard has that ugly ERA and losing record, but he also happens to be 6-3 with a 3.19 ERA lifetime against the Dodgers. The Padres always play the Dodgers tough, and tonight doesn't figure to be any different.

Except...we've got that rookie guy starting. What's his name? Pweeg? Hmmm. Maybe this kid is worth watching.

I decree first pitch to human centipede to be aimed at his head if the pansy decides to play today.

Paul said...

He is batting cleanup. Bring out the gimp.

Paul said...

Ramirez in the starting lineup. Hopefully he hits a few homeruns so he doesn't have to work out the hammy too much.

MLB suspending 20 players?

http://espn.go.com/espn/otl/story/_/id/9301536/major-league-baseball-suspend-20-players-including-alex-rodriguez-ryan-braun-part-miami-investigation

Orel said...

I bet Uribe gets suspended.

MR.F said...

I sure hope no Dodgers are on that list. I also would love to see Braun suspended and Melky re-suspended.

Orel said...

Mattingly on Quentin: "I don't really anticipate anything. He gets hit a lot, so if he gets hit, he gets hit." http://sbn.to/16IB325

Fred's Brim said...

Can we also hit Richard in that creepy hillbilly Joker grill of his?

Fred's Brim said...

we may have to wait until the later innings to hit HC. Lilly doesn't have enough fastball to do the job right

Fred's Brim said...

Jesus, Ted!

Fred's Brim said...

Stop talking to Eric Stults

Fred's Brim said...

nice catch, SVS!

Fred's Brim said...

he's not a fast man, but he got there

MR.F said...

We're losing already?

Fred's Brim said...

already

karen said...

On the sofa Vinny. A little late but these things happen.

Hard to feel cocky with Teddy on the mound.

Fred's Brim said...

cripes - Teddy's trying to stink

karen said...

Very nice.

karen said...

FB...Teddy is a pro at stinking.

MR.F said...

PUIGGGGGGGGGG

Fred's Brim said...

get him home, AG

Fred's Brim said...

damn

Fred's Brim said...

@karen, Teddy's had lots of practice

spank said...

couldn't make it home on time but it looks like there was no retaliation.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Fred's Brim said...

@Spank - yet

MR.F said...

Lineout? Was it at least a hard hit ball?

MR.F said...

@Spank, don't worry. We're gonna wait for a harder thrower.

Paul said...

Hope we can score more than 2 tonight.

Paul said...

I got a bad feeling about this.

Fred's Brim said...

@Faner - yeah it was pretty hard hit, just unlucky

Fred's Brim said...

fucking hell

Paul said...

Yup.

Fred's Brim said...

can MLB suspend Ted retroactively to 28 minutes ago?

spank said...

@ F and FB

I hears ya. i just want quick retribution.

MR.F said...

Wow, we suck.

Paul said...

Doesn't Ted know our offense sucks? And our bullpen? And our bench?

Fred's Brim said...

Teddy wasting his good pitches on the opposing pitcher

spank said...

Padres broadcast has a ball hit speedometer.

Fucking assholes

Fred's Brim said...

@Spank - I think you mean quick and frequent retribution

Fred's Brim said...

vigorous too

Orel said...

Already down by three? Christ, Lilly.

Erin said...

Ted Lilly has definitely replaced Mike Mussina for saddest face ever in baseball.

spank said...

I don't think the Dodgers has the huevos for frequent retribution,FB. i'll take anything i can get.

Fred's Brim said...

Padres broadcast probably have a hit speedometer for their schlongs too

Orel said...

And I see Puig got stranded at second. Get used to it, Yasiel.

Fred's Brim said...

Can we get Mussina to come in and teach Ted the circle change?

Fred's Brim said...

@Orel - just to frustrate you more, he was stranded at third and got there with one out

spank said...

The Dodgers can set up a beverage cart at each base for Puig so he won't dehydrate while being stranded.

spank said...

Urine would request a food cart.

Fred's Brim said...

Is Old-Timers day a new thing for the Dodgers?

spank said...

Taco Time!

Fred's Brim said...

maybe we could put increasingly delicious food at each base to lure him around the bases

Orel said...

Have pity on us, BABIP gods!

Fred's Brim said...

I wish Spank was sitting in the seats down the the third base line. I can't imagine the things he would be saying to Quentin right now

Orel said...

Thanks, FB. I am indeed more frustrated.

Fred's Brim said...

Woohoo FedEx!

Orel said...

Wow! FedEx!

spank said...

Fed Ex!!!

Orel said...

Great smile by FedEx in the dugout.

karen said...

Our 4th string players getting the job done.

What's our payroll again?

Orel said...

I don't recall old-timer games in the past.

Fred's Brim said...

I wonder if Guggenheim has money in FedEx

Fred's Brim said...

@karen, I think it's somewhere north of the GDP of Palau

spank said...

@ FB

I'd request a mic if i was there. Man i wouldn't even make it to first pitch. i'll just be talking shit the whole time and would get escorted out quickly.It would be worth it.

Fred's Brim said...

Is Dusty off watching the Jamaica - Mexico world cup qualifying match? If so, he's seeing a decent game

Fred's Brim said...

@spank - that would be a great reality show - i would watch the shit out of that

karen said...

FB & Orel...I remember Old Timers games way back in the O'Malley regime.

spank said...

meh. oh well. puig is coming up.

Fred's Brim said...

hmm - we sure have a lot of them hanging around. It's a pretty successful deal for the Yanks

Paul said...

Stop Puig time.

Paul said...

Ah well

Orel said...

Puig showed bunt. Gotta love it.

BJ Killeen said...

homer time

Orel said...

I definitely remember celebrity all-star games, Karen. So they would do both in one season?

Fred's Brim said...

crud - i gotta go to bed but i don't wanna miss the plunking. They can't do it tomorrow and risk Clayton getting suspended or in a fight, can they? I bet they try it tonight with Howell or Moylan, somebody who can get it up there

spank said...

well shit. that was a quick inning. went for an ice cold beverage in the fridge, i come back and A gon flies out to end the inning. Wtf?

Orel said...

This whole idea of carrying a large flat-screen panel from room to room. Do people really do that?

Orel said...

trivia: How many Cuban-born players have played for the Dodgers?

Orel said...

Sleep tight, FB. If a plunking happens, you'll hear about it here.

Orel said...

trivia answer: at least one

Orel said...

Kings up 2-1 in the 3rd, 16:34 left.

spank said...

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Orel said...

Uribe can't handle the Puig Gun.

Dusty Baker said...

Lilly with three broken legs on that play. On to the DL!

Paul said...

Puig is a Dodger.

Orel said...

Eric Stephen ‏@truebluela 1m

The words "hit the cutoff man" will be used often after that play from Yasiel Puig

spank said...

Urine couldn't handle Puigs throw. Should have blocked the throw instead of trying to make a tag with it.

#basicskillz

Orel said...

SVS got all amped up watching Puig. 5-2 Pads.

spank said...

Good ol' Dodgers are back.

Paul said...

Puig should have never made that throw.

karen said...

Orel...They used to do both in the same season. Like I said, way back in the good old days. Things have never seemed quite right since the O'Malley's sold the team.

Paul said...

Great more bad pitching warming up.

spank said...

True dat Paul, but Urine should have thrown his body at the ball instead of swiping his glove at it like a first baseman.

Orel said...

Buck up, Karen! The Guggenbros will find a way.

Orel said...

Koalas!

Paul said...

Think that is how Uribe catches hamburgers.

Dusty Baker said...

My god I went from 2.5 to a 7 surly in half an inning.

Jesus Colorado Lilly is terrible. This has to be the end of the road for him. He's not even a good 4 or 5 spot inning eater. Not that we have a lot of other options but Lilly is just...done.

Orel said...

uh oh

Dylan Hernandez ‏@dylanohernandez 1m

#Dodgers argue that disclosing relationship with Frank McCourt will hurt chances of landing another sports team: http://lat.ms/18Tsi57

Orel said...

Richard catches Hanley's bullet! Again, BABIP gods?

Dusty Baker said...

For the record:

On the surly sofa, Vinny!

Dusty Baker said...

Lilly would throw at Carlos Quentin - and miss.

Orel said...

Dodgers go down meekly in the 4th.

spank said...

I think i remember seeing Duke Snider and Gil Hodges on the field back in the 80's during one of those old timers games on KTTV. But it could have been one of those celebrity things because i remember Tony Danza on the field also.

i need a beer.

Steve Sax said...

Dammit lilly

Dusty Baker said...

Or Lilly will throw to first - and miss.

Orel said...

Dusty called it!

spank said...

Baseball fundamentals are nowhere to be seen.

Dusty Baker said...

Chase Headley -- no, chase Lilly.

Dusty Baker said...

Great, Matt Gurrier in to save the da....(hangs self)

Orel said...

JATLS

Dusty Baker said...

Kings up 2-1 with 8 minutes left.

Orel said...

Sphincter-squeezing time at Staples.

Dusty Baker said...

On the Sphincter-squeezing sofa, Vinny!

BJ Killeen said...

Dodgers get a record...record number on the DL

Orel said...

Hawks pull the goalie.

Orel said...

KINGS SCORE!

Dusty Baker said...

Kings score!!!!

Orel said...

KINGS WIN!

Dusty Baker said...

PUIG!!!!!!!!!!

Orel said...

HOLY SHIT REWIND DVR

MR.F said...

PUIGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

spank said...

Fuck! Missed the homer by Puig.

Paul said...

Puig!!!!!!

Dusty Baker said...

Now that's some BeastMode right there.

spank said...

FUCK!

Erin said...

Vin loves this kid. It's awesome.

Paul said...

He killed it!

Dusty Baker said...

I feel sorry for that ball that Puig just hit.

Erin said...

Puig came to the plate and I was thinking, "Don't swing for the fences, kid, just because you could tie the game." I was so very wrong.

Also, the replay of that swing made me think of Manny Ramirez.

BJ Killeen said...

After the game Donnie better fucking apologize to every single fan who said to bring Puig up two months ago.

Dusty Baker said...

5-5 in the fifth. We have ourselves a ball game.

At least until we have to pitch again in the top of the next inning.

Cliff Beefpile said...

Kings win!

BJ Killeen said...

439 ft

Cliff Beefpile said...

Fuck! I missed a Puig homerun?!

Orel said...

Wow. Still buzzed.

Dusty Baker said...

Fake Colletti twitter said "Imagine how far that Yasiel Puig home run would have gone if he had hit it off Ted Lilly."

BJ Killeen said...

Puig going for the cycle!

Dusty Baker said...

What's even more amazing is that we actually had two guys on base before Puig hit that jack.

Orel said...

Bill Shaikin ‏@BillShaikin 17s

Yasiel Puig has more XBH tonight than Luis Cruz has all season. #Dodgers

Orel said...

Puig + Vin = priceless

Orel said...

AGon has been positively animated this season.

Orel said...

Hanley RBI! This is...new.

spank said...

Damn.It would have been a wild scene had HanRam homered.

MR.F said...

A lead?!

spank said...

I didn't even realize Dre did not start today.

Orel said...

"Puig does it, just another sentence in the fairy tale that is Yasiel Puig." —Vin

Paul said...

Can Puig pitch? I'm sure he could.

Dusty Baker said...

Well this euphoria won't last long.

#Belli

MR.F said...

WTF that was fast.

Hideo Nomo said...

Missing the game, the thread, and Twitter due to a family function, but I checked in quick. Orel is Puiging it on the Twitters.

spank said...

someone give Belli some cocaine.

Paul said...

Great.

Erin said...

Belisario is a god damn JOKE.

MR.F said...

Don't we have some hotshot Cuban relief pitcher tearing it up in AA right now? smh

Paul said...

666 Devils Wild!

spank said...

*gets wild*

EricoPerico said...

D-bags and Cards also tied at 6... in the 12th inning.

karen said...

Is the crowd saying Crruuuzzz or booooo? Could go either way.

BJ Killeen said...

In other news: Puig heads to Middle East to broker peace.
Puig to record duet with JayZ
Puig to take over Tonight show

Dusty Baker said...

Vin notes that Puig is wearing the score. Love you, Vin.

spank said...

Wow! Cochito comes through with an RBI.

BJ Killeen said...

Puig talk to Cruz. Cruz hits again

Paul said...

Wow!!!!

Dusty Baker said...

Are you kidding me???

spank said...

PUIGTOWN MOFOS!!!!

Dusty Baker said...

Dodger fans were due, to be sure.

spank said...

FUCK!

BJ Killeen said...

We are watching history here folks

Paul said...

What a manimal.

Erin said...

This is so amazing.

Erin said...

What's the rookie record for curtain calls?

BJ Killeen said...

Fuck you Donnie for waiting so long.

MR.F said...

WHAT THE FUCK

BJ Killeen said...

Isn't it time for Donnie to take Puig out now?

Pride of Dong said...

#OMpuiG!

Dusty Baker said...

JP Howell didn't get the memo that he should be throwing AT Quentin, not serving up a meatball.

Dusty Baker said...

Per Dodgers:

"Last Dodger to start career with back-to-back multi-hit games: Larry Miller (6/21/1964 and 0/29/1964)."

spank said...

Larry Miller the comedian?

Dusty Baker said...

Vin has gotten all pro-Commie, VIva Fidel he's so giddy.

Fernie V said...

He's in Puigego

Cliff Beefpile said...

This Puig kid looks like he might be alright.

BJ Killeen said...

If Kenley's up, that means Brandon's last. Pray for us.

Dusty Baker said...

I vote pitching Kenley for as long his arm stays attached. No League.

Cliff Beefpile said...

Even Uribe's shittiness isn't rubbing off on Puig!

Paul said...

Puig already has a third of Dre's RBI total.

Dusty Baker said...

Made you look like a foo, Dre.

Dusty Baker said...

200

Dusty Baker said...

Puig really is into nail care.

Dusty Baker said...

RedSox scored 17 runs tonight? Was Belli pitching to them?

Dusty Baker said...

HanRam with the leather!!

spank said...

nice

Dusty Baker said...

We could easily blow a 2-run lead and see Puig in the bottom ninth.

Orel said...

League in? Guess Puig will have to walk off then.

Cliff Beefpile said...

Cabrera missed Everthing with that swing.

Paul said...

You are such an optimist Orel. Thinking League will only give up two runs.

spank said...

DO IT! NOW!

spank said...

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Paul said...

Ha ha!

Cliff Beefpile said...

Yeah, you were out, Quentin. Bitch.

Orel said...

If League's hand is hurt then Quentin will have knocked out two of our pitchers.
