I'm sure Tyler Skaggs is a nice man, but his name is just too, well, Skaggy not to mock in this space. Especially as giddy as we are, on the precipice of getting back to .500 for the first time since the end of April. Having already locked down another series win, the Dodgers behind Ryu will try for the series sweep and a chance to move within 1.5 games of the NL West lead. This would be great momentum coming into the final home stand against the Rockies before the All-Star Game break.
One thing I'll be looking for is to see Crawford get back to his pre-DL form, given that the Kemp news seems to be getting worse (irritated AC joint). For the record, Kemp has thus far expressed no irritation toward SoSG AC.
In other news, Ted Lilly has asked Donnie to consider using him out of the pen, and not as a starter. Waaaaaay ahead of you on that one, Theodore.
Happy thought for the day: the Gnats have a worse record than the Cubs!
Above all else: VOTE PUIG!
UPDATE: Looks like we'll have to wait longer to see about Crawford. He is not in the lineup tonight. Ethier, Puig, and Van Slyke will round out the outfield.

Puig RF
Gonzalez 1B
Ramirez SS
Ajellis C
Ethier CF
Van Slyke LF
Punto 3B

Crawford is both happy and proven wrong?
Crawford's presumed discontent noted in the GT.
Sosg AC is irritated by Kemp though.
What was reason given for Crawdaddy's absence?
I heart SVS
Tigers up 8-3. Go blue
Gotta keep pitching
Damn you, Cody Ross.
Yay Dodgers baseball.
Ugh. D'backs homer.
Damn, down 1-0 in the first already
Another rocky start by Ryu.
Minimal damage.
Come on Shredder!
Come on, Ryu!
Dang, just realized Steve Garvey was at Barney's Beanery in Pasadena last night.
He's at the WeHo location tonight.

Did you guys see that asshole Puig run over to the right field stands and give the ball to a woman holding a baby? What a dick. #Dodgers
EricoPerico,
Is that still for the Puig campaign?
Mellis gets robbed for a second time. Who goes a guy have to fuck to get a hit around here?
Yeah, Mr. F.
Check it out:
http://www.am570radio.com/pages/Dodgers.html?article=11459786
Leadoff triple for the D'backs. Those never score.
Guess it's the Dodgers' turn to look lifeless.
I got here just in time to see Cody Ross strikeout. =)
Get one back, Hanley!
Still havent heard why Crawdaddy isnt in lineup. Scheduled day off hopefully?
Hanley walk, A.J. single, no outs.
2 on, 0 outs. Ethier up.
Twitter's pretty mum on the subject, Dusty.
Ethier single. Rancho Ardiendo. "Dodgers PR" on twitter refers to SVS as Stache Van Smash.
SVSRBI!
Well, there's 1.
SvS gets us on the board!
Shredder's useless tonight.
Ryu's gonna clear them here.
Back to our old ways.
Shucks. Oh well.
Ha! If you can't crush 'em, bunt 'em, says Mellis.
Low and away. Low and away. Low and away.
Puig single.
2nd and 3rd, 1 out for Hanley.
Hanley two-RBI double!
I see you, HanRam!
<3
Oh yea! That's what I'm talking bout
A month ago we don't overcome a two-run deficit.
Now start the beat down
Love watching the D'backs struggle.
JABBFAJ
RANCHO ARDIENDO, PART DEUX
Rancho ardiendo! And Skaggs is gone, with the Dodgers up 3-2
Lets break them.
svs should not have the green light 3-0
He takes a called strike. 3-1
Pretty sketchy call for strike two there.
SVS GIDP. Boooooo
Welp.
We should be up like 16-2 now.
I think we're gonna need a bigger lead.
AZ takes the lead back, 4-3.
Damn that Goldschmidt is good.
That's a lot of eye black, Cody
This has been annoying so far.
Hanley with the sweet pick to get Co-D. His defense has definitely picked up.
Gonna need some balls to win this one.
Now it's our turn to look incompetent.
My cue to go to bed and dream we win.
Ryu just fell into a dinner party there. AZ 5, LA 3, end 5.
Man, we needed those RISP.
Remember when Punto could hit? One out.
Crawford PH: ground out to first. Two out.
Get On for Puig.
Mellis with a base hit to first! The graphic says Ellis' base hit gets runners on first and second, but then corrects to stick Ellis on just first.
Here's Yasiel!
Tie it up Puig.
Damn.
So many wasted opportunities tonight. Going to cost us the game.
Hard fly out to center for Puig, but right at Pollock unfort.
@Orel: We're going to win this game. It's just going to be closer than it should be.
Ken Rosenthal wants to stand up against bullying.
I just can't tell if he's standing up.
I so want a Puig Factor shirt.
Man, Puig just clanked that catch.
Puig drops the fly ball in right for an error. But runner holds at first.
I hope that dropped ball wasn't the Puig Factor that they've referenced.
Nice 3-6-1 DP!
UJTD!
I like avocados, but that's a little nuts there.
Kia Cerritos woman: a little scary.
Puig's brilliant fake botched catch set up that double play. He can see the future, maaaaan.
A-GON GONE!
5-4 AZ, none out in the seventh. Nice bullet of a HR, Adrian!
Okay boys and girls: what are you all drinking right now?
I'm debating which beer to open.
Ramirez and Ellis rope fly balls to right, but Parra tracks both shots down for fly outs.
Ethier up with two out. He goes yard here.
Lot of fly balls. Think Dre is due for an Arizona bomb.
I lied. Still up. WTG agon
Mets: first series sweep in SF since 1994
@BJ!
I'm stuck on Level 356
DIdja go to the game tonight? See Fielder go yard?
That was not going yard, Ethier. Chased a bad ball there
That wasn't what I envisioned.
Boy, that handshake gag in Grown Ups 2 looks high-larious.
Beli is in
Where's the vengeance, Beli?
@Sax
Was thinking of opening a Paulaner Pills but the fridge is way over there.
Beer maiden where art thou?
Rox up 3-0 on the Padres, Top 6
@Paul: I'll go get you one, but I'm grabbing one too
Nice grab by Ellis there to get Pollock out at first
Nice Ellis.
Ethier tracks that down in the deepest part of the park. Nice job, Andre.
Hey Beli: Hit the next guy.
Line out to third for out #3
Beli didn't fool anyone but it worked.
Come on Dodgers score on this Putz.
Uribe PH for Beli. HR right here.
Or, a first-pitch foul out behind the plate.
Not good, 2011 Uribe.
Or maybe that was 2012 Uribe.
This Puto project should end NOW.
So should the Allan Parsons Project, if that's still going on.
Crawford is due.
Dodgers set up a dramatic 9th inning win.
Dodgers go 1-2-3 in the eighth.
Cmon Jose, we need a clean inning to give us a chance
I love how that 100-mph pitch triggers a flame graphic in the score/game info area.
Wait, 99 mph just got it, too
Think it starts at 97.
Jose sets himself up for the W.
nice work, kid!
Drew Pomeranz is going to shut us out tomorrow
the 9+ era tells me that
Drive the ball Puig.
Can't see him walking here.
Yup.
good pitch by Bell
Make him work.
Nice at bat!
Hanley up with a man on. All we can ask for.
Don't think we can ask AJ to come up big twice this week.
attaboy, Hanley, way to keep us going
Nice!!!!!!!
A.J. delivers!
AJAAAAY!
Basehit Dre.
Judging by that swing we can't take the lead.
Turrible AB, Dre...
attaboy, AJ, that was clutch
Great walk by AG.
cmon, Paco, take us to the 10th
Nice start.
Puig cruises through the second out
Got them on the ropes.
wow, great inning, Paco!
Zack on deck.
Have no fear D.E.L.I.N.O. is here
Green light him Donnie.
If Donnie even THINKS about putting in League, imma put out a contract on em both
Nice Zack!
attaboy, Zach!
Come on.
when is Carl going to get going?
@FB: When Tammy Skaggs is released.
I like pinch-hitting Zach.
This AB by Mellis has more grit than a pallet of sandpaper.
I want another 20 ABs
MORE
12 pitches and counting
Just get on base. Just get on base.
BTw.. I'm watching Skyfall with my wife.
Even the coolest, most brilliant women just don't get Bond.
fuuuuuck
Oh what could have been
bah, nice AB, Mark
Wearing Darryl's old number.
@D. has she seen Casino Royale? I thought the girlies liked the shirtless Daniel Craig in that one
I can't believe we are missing Skip
Had him 0-2 and walked him.
throw strikes, dingus!
UJTD!
Where was that, blue?!
that works
Should IBB Goldshit here.
Starts him with a 96 mph right down the middle.
WOW gets "Goldie"!
nice K!
can't believe I am still up
what's my cutoff? 2:00am?
SHUT 'EM UP, YAS!
ugh, wasted AB there
I would say FB. Since mine is going to be 10:45.
hey, this is quite a game here
was that a bat flying around the mound?
Rake it Hanley.
attaboy, Jerry!
Shit. I miss A-Gon's bat.
balls
Anything left in the Clutch meter AJ?
That was a meek inning.
meek sauce indeed
I am gonna be meek too, I need bed.
Bring this one home, yall
Rodeo clown is going to win the game here in the 11th
Two VERY IMPRESSIVE innings by Withrow.
Please score. I have to be at work at 6:30.
Fuckin' Dre.
Fear the speed of Juan Uribe!
Uribe with an infield base hit! One out.
