Ricky Nolasco had an outstanding Dodger debut: 7.0 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 0 BB and 5 Ks...and two hits (including a double) as well as a run scored and an RBI.
Ian Kennedy was indeed the weak sauce we predicted: 5.2 IP, 9 H, 6 R, 5 ER, 3 BB and 2 Ks. A throwing error from catcher Miguel Montero in the fourth, plus a fielding error by center fielder Adam Eaton, didn't help Kennedy any (both events led to Dodgers runs), but that's what you get when you plunk Hanley Ramirez in the first inning (Ramirez went 0-for-4 and ended his hitting streak at 19).
Carl Crawford got a hit (a bunt sacrifice-turned-single) and scored two runs.Yasiel Puig went 1-for-3 with 2 walks, one of which was sweet as he clearly wasn't biting on the bait Kennedy had left out there. Adrian Gonzalez went 1-for-4 with 3 RBI. Andre Ethier went 2-for-4 with a run scored; Skip Schumaker upped Ethier by going 2-for-4 with a run scored and a RBI. Dodgers pull to 2.5 GB of the first-place Diamondbacks, and one game below .500.

I was still looking for an image on the internet that had a tennis scoreboard showing 6-1, 6-1.
Padres beat Rockies, 2-1
Mets and Giants knotted at 5 in the top of the eighth. Wild pitch by Jeremy Affeldt allows Omar Quintanilla to advance to third and Juan Lagares to advance to second. One out.
Eric Young walks. Dan Murphy coming to the plate for the Mets.
Coaching visit to mound.
Mets score
Murphy sac flies to Blanco in center, Quintanilla scores. Lagares moves to third. Mets 6, Giants 5.
Come on, you Mutts!
Rancho Ardiendo for Marlon Byrd. 6-5 Mets.
Affeldt getting squeezed. First three pitches called balls but could have easily been strikes. I like it.
@Dusty, this is the closest I could find.
In comes Jake Dunning. He's been pretty nails for the Giants: 1.35 ERA with 13.1 IP under his belt (11 Ks).
First pitch swinging, Byrd in play, run(s)
@Sax
I'd actually downloaded an app that allows one to keep tennis score, so I was going to program it to show the set scores and then take a screenshot of that. That's as far as I got. #AforEffort
BYRD GRAND SLAM
Marlon Byrd takes the first pitch, a 78 MPH slider down the middle, and he hits a GRAND SLAM TO LEFT
Mets 10, Giants 5
Granny!
Jon Miller on KNBR radio: "that one just sat there at the belt, as if pleading to be annihilated."
Dagger.
@Dusty 10:11p:
Hey, don't worry about it. Li Na me. When you're not strong. I'll be your friend.
Crown Vic just went Yard for Boston to give them a 9-7 lead in Seattle.
You outdid yourself that time, Sax. Well played.
Giants are losing again? That's a shame.
Dylan Hernandrz has Belli saying the feud w Dbags isn't over bc he hit Montero accidentally, so revenge is still coming. Nice!
It took forever to figure out why Dad retweeted my stupid CP GREESHIN lineup joke, then I remembered what he used to endorse.
Well played all around.
Uh, GREESHN, that is.
BTW I was mistaken about Milano tweeting re the Vin transcript. Someone had Tweeted it and included her in a way that looked like she had Tweeted it, at first glance.
Pence w a weird hit and a throwing error to extend bottom 9th.
Gnats score on a single. 10-6 Mutts.
Game over, Mutts win.
And it's over, Mets win 10-6
Goooooooood niiiight everybody.
This would have the Giants and Padres tied for last, if I'm not mistaken. 6.5 GB Arizona.
Back to Candy Crush
Ps- And the Angels lost to the Cubs 7-2.
Hi.
Hello.
Is it me you're looking for?
I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your smile
Big win tonight. Guarantees another series win.
Fell asleep in the 8th. All my dreams came true. And I heard Beli nailed a D'bag. Glorious night!
