Matt Magill (0-1, 6.38 ERA) vs. Mike Minor (7-2, 2.52 ERA)
This a truly ugly pitching matchup. I have the privilege of witnessing it in person. As exciting as a great day game at the Yard sounds, this one could be scary to see. Magill was called up to replace Ted Lilly, who again goes to the DL. One has to figure this is near the end of the road for Lilly. And one has to hope so; he's almost but not quite entirely ineffective.
Word is that Hanley Ramirez is having more hammy problems and will be getting an MRI on what has to be the most over-used MRI scanner in existence.
Everyone pray to Cuban Jesus and maybe, just maybe, we'll get a series win out of this.

Dre is banged up a bit after fouling a pitch off his ankle, but overall he's fine and out of the lineup because he can't hit lefties if his life depended on it.
Great, shitty lineup plus lopsided pitching matchup equals a game for the ages. What are the Vegas odds?
The Dodgers will score 10 runs and Magoo will pitch a shutout.Watch and learn,y'all.
Looks like it's that time of the month for Dre.
This looks like the lineup for the Clanton boys heading into Tombstone...I don't have a good feeling about this (now blending Star Wars references with a western theme)...
@Dusty...I totally agree with the GT. Lets all hope we've seen the last of Lilly. Also, I LOVE the GT picture.
Thanks Karen!
ps- At the Yard, Vinny!
Rich! Hank Azaria is reading the starting lineup as Moe, Apu, and Chief Wiggum.
Teo of my favorite things: Simpsons and baseball.
Oh and I'm having a beer so that's three of my favorite things.
Funny it die taking over braves and dodgers twitter accounts for the game today. Oiy
coor-a-sow

That is the scariest GT picture I've seen in a while

Tony Stewart is still racing Nascar?
Tony won last race!
Pweeg leads off with a single.
@ BJ
Really? Cool. Damm I haven't watched Nascar in a couple years.i've lost touch.
Rancho VanSlykeiendo
Rally?!?!
Oh please baseball gods.
SVS sporting the fu manchu.
Rancho ardiendo, B1, no out?
My gameday must be broken
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Of course, force out at home. Let me guess (since I can't see the game where I am): Puig injured in collision at home, right?
Jar Jar batting fifth. This is Donnie type baseball,yo.
Minor is erratic! Take the damn walks, people
@ Saxy
Hanley pulled his other hammy watching Pweeg run to home plate.
a miracle run
but i will take it
Whew. Thought I was gonna have to start saying fuck.
just poke it somewhere, Fed
fudge
Magoo feeling charitable today. 3 walks already.
One measley run. Boo
In other news, I'm stuck on level 265 on Candy Crush Saga
Btway todays game is the free game of the day on MLBtv.com,ya heard.
Nice catch FedEx!
Mike Minor is almost batting better than our five-hole, Cruz.
Sno coned!
FedEx snags the foul in the enemy dugout!!
Great catch, Fed!
1-0 through 1.5
Jimmie Johnson wins Pocono
@Sax
265 sucks, 266 is worse. I'm stuck on 275.
MEhllis vs lefties? Yes please
Spank, thanks for the headsup on MLB.tv! Though where I am, I shouldn't be awake right now...
Still waiting for FOD to tweet something funny.
lucky, terrible bunting there
@ Saxy
No problem dude. Is it nap time in San Quentin?
SONOFABITCH
Leadoff single, can't convert it. 1-0 through 2.
@Spank: Turkish prison
we get lucky on the Skippy dribbler and no luck on the Punto liner
at least it was just a 4-pitch walk - he's getting more efficient on those.
Magill gives more free passes than Neeebs' Mom....almost.
you gotta be kidding me
and her glove is about as loose as Adrians
Adrian's
Adrian Zmed would have made that play
The Puigster unloads a beauty. He does everything well. I wonder if he can pitch relief for us as well.
oh a sac fly? we should try that next time we get a guy on third and less than two outs. Somebody should phone down to the dugout to let Donnie those are legal
Fuck.
yuck
Thanks Adrian
BJ and I breaking out the fuck word. Things must not be going well.
Really glad we didn't score all those base runners in the first two innings. Now we get to watch Cruz bat again!
Oh, and I use "bat" loosely
@FB: nice Adrian Zmed reference. Wow. +1
It's almost like it is scripted. Vinny reminds us that out 2 should have been out 3 and almost immediately the owl unloads.
It's sad that I want to see urine come in. Take Cruz out.
take the walk
I wonder what our #5 hitter will do this time.
Donnie must be on the bottle.
is it right to say Skippy has hit in 15 straight? Does his pinch-run the other night not count as a game-played?
Welp.
Either the Funny or Die people are asleep or their faces are deep into Will Ferrel's butthole that they can't tweet.
maybe they took the "or Die" part literally
feels like we've had 2-3 of those a game the past week
FUCK ME. Matty has had a fucking set back???
Vin thinks Simmons is good looking? Bleech.
How in the world is this line-up going to make up 4 runs? Maybe we all need to pray to Cuban Jesus.
That last tweet about bedpans was funny
gotta split to the store. don't score any runs while i'm gone,Dodgers.
Fuck me.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
godammit, this team is so tiring
Isnt Belli shittier than Magill, no matter how badly Magill is doing?
Does Belli even care?
The Earps are shooting with ak47s
@Karen
Exactly. Can we put Magoo BACK in??
At least Rafael Nadal won the French Open this morning.
The Owl hits another homer.
@Dusty...At this point I'm thinking that Magoo is just another problem. As bad as he is, I'd rather deal with him then Ted Lilly.
What's Swedish for jesus jumped up fuckin shit we suck ballz?
"Yippie-ki-yay, Ugglafucker!"

It's about time to honor Sandy Koufax with a bobblehead.
@Vinny...I would LOVE to have a Vin Scully bobblehead!!
Great. 16 more of those and we are back in it!
Mofo here wearing a jeff kent Dodgers authentic jersey. Say what???
Sloooooooow game
@BJ...It is slow. It would even be slow if we were winning.
@Dusty...I don't request the throwing of the beer lightly. I can't remember if it was the 77 or 78 World Series that the yankmees won in or yard, but after the game we were walking through the concourse and there were some yankmee fans celebrating a little to much. I was barely a teenager and over emotional about the loss. I grabbed my mom's beer and threw it in their fucking faces. When they started to step towards me, my brother stepped in front of me and said "Don't touch her". The weiner yanmee fans walked away dripping beer. I'm not saying it's right to throw beer in someone's face, but it feels oh so good.
^our...^yankmee
*dry humps Nadal*
Good to have brothers Karen!
@BJ...ain't it the truth!!
Even the Dodger Blues dude has more tweets on the game than FOD.
I am just loving this kid.
Pweeeg doubles. Rally thong time!
Should change their name to not funny or die
I should have washed the rally thong.
DAMN Karen, now that is a story!
Rob Delaney was funnier than FoD.
Donnie talking about switching Puig to other positions but so far hasn't taken my suggestion about refief pitching. I'm thinking, at this point, how could it hurt?
@Orel...Sadly, it's one of the high points of my life!!
Looks like Princess Ethier is nice and rested there on the bench. All he needs is a wine spritzer and he'll have it made.
I'm glad that happened to you in the 70's karen. That shit will get you killed nowadays.Big brother or no big brother. No bullshit.
I want a magic mesh
MLB soon realizes giving FOD control was a big mistake. SOSG team is way funnier
Nothing sad about that, Karen. I applaud you!
@Spanky...That is so the truth. Nowadays I wouldn't even make eye contact with those dudes.
i think i am done here. thanks y'all. if i watch anymore of this game i'll be looking worse than the person in the GT pic...not that i don't already.
IT'S ONLY THE 8TH?
Go wash that rally thong, Spank!
Thank you, Orel. It really did feel good!
Vin has been reduced to begging people not to leave
Uh oh. The drug sales guy is
pitching.
That is one of the bedt stories, Karen! Why were you holding that back?
Reminds me of a few yrs ago wen Yankmes were in town. At the end of the game we had but then let go, a mouthy piece of shit Yankme fan was walking up the stairs past me. He was rotund and looked like Jaba Chamberlain so i started getting mouthy with him. Neither of us backed down. It started to get real, then out of nowhere a bunch of homies surrounded me and had my back - some hardcore bald tattooed long pant wearing white t-shirt having cholos. It could only have gone one way and Joba backed off.
Dusty, rollin wit da homies. This GT is unexpectedly hardcore.
C'mon rocks. Help out some poor basement dwellers
@Dusty...I love it when we go gan sta!! What I left out of that story was that after all the beer throwing stuff happened, we were in my mom's car in the parking lot and my bro, David, saw some more yankme fans getting ready to walk by us. David timed it perfectly and threw the car door open to nail those yankme bastards! For the fact that we had just lost the World Series, David and I were feeling pretty damn good.
@karen. Lol
Well, shit.
FMRPGTUP (ask Dusty)
Uh, yeah.
