Game 119 Thread: August 13 vs. Mets, 7p

Thankfully, this is NOT the knit cap being given away tonight at the Stadium.

Hyun-Jin Ryu (11-3, 2.99) vs. Matt Harvey (9-3, 2.09).

Whereas Monday night faced off newcomers and Wednesday night (Capuano vs. Gee) has two with losing records, tonight's matchup faces two strong arms. Ryu is in the mix for Rookie of the Year (though likely overshadowed by teammate Yasiel Puig); Harvey started this year's All-Star Game and is discussed (along with Clayton Kershaw) for the NL Cy Young Award. Can the Dodgers pull another rabbit out of their hat and get yet another unlikely win?

Fred's Brim said...: that stinks about Dre. Maybe he'll be available for a pinch hit; 8/13/2013 5:11 PM
Hideo Nomo said...: Wow. The Angels are a boring mess. They're not even really fun to make fun of anymore.; 8/13/2013 6:30 PM
Cliff Beefpile said...: Wow. That one went maybe 385 feet.; 8/13/2013 7:13 PM
BJ Killeen said...: Geez. This is the welcome I get?; 8/13/2013 7:14 PM
Cliff Beefpile said...: I will say, of all the games I've attended over the years, the Mets have possibly been the biggest pain in my ass. I've watched the Dodgers lose to the Padres a lot too, but I think I've seen them lose a higher percentage to the Mets. At least of games I've seen in person.; 8/13/2013 7:17 PM
Cliff Beefpile said...: HA! That kid tagging Uribe was hilarious.; 8/13/2013 7:19 PM
Fred's Brim said...: we'll be lucky to score tonight

Harvey throwing up to 99; 8/13/2013 7:22 PM

Yes they are fun to make fun of! (re: Angels); 8/13/2013 7:23 PM
Fred's Brim said...: Cmon, HJ, shut 'em down; 8/13/2013 7:30 PM
Fred's Brim said...: mmmm HJ; 8/13/2013 7:30 PM
Dusty Baker said...: Spank will be lucky to score tonight.; 8/13/2013 7:45 PM
spank said...: it all depends on what i want to score,Dusty.

*attach evil laugh here*; 8/13/2013 7:55 PM
Dusty Baker said...: @Spank

I was referring to illegal recreational drugs. I don't know what you were thinking about.; 8/13/2013 7:56 PM
Fred's Brim said...: Cmon, HJ, finish this off; 8/13/2013 8:05 PM
Fred's Brim said...: this ump has no strike zone for HJ; 8/13/2013 8:06 PM

Fred's Brim said...: ^^ the older Pete

I assume Danny Tamberelli is in jail by now; 8/13/2013 8:10 PM
Dusty Baker said...: For the record, my hand definitely counts.; 8/13/2013 8:13 PM
spank said...: let's get some run(s) dammit; 8/13/2013 8:14 PM
Dusty Baker said...: Starting to worry about Puig's inability to lift the ball. Great how he can smash balls through the infield, but in these situations, he's got to try to hit with some power.; 8/13/2013 8:24 PM
Paul said...: D bags losing.; 8/13/2013 8:28 PM
Dusty Baker said...: I read on the Dodgers site that Hanley is penciled in to start tomorrow night.; 8/13/2013 8:28 PM
Fred's Brim said...: Great inning, HJ!; 8/13/2013 8:28 PM
Paul said...: Mini EY is redundant. But he looks just like his old man.; 8/13/2013 8:29 PM
Fred's Brim said...: I thought this was the Dodgers site; 8/13/2013 8:29 PM
Paul said...: Nice quick inning to put the pressure on Harvey.; 8/13/2013 8:29 PM
Hideo Nomo said...: Dusty, you still use websites?; 8/13/2013 8:30 PM
Hideo Nomo said...: I mean, OTHER than this one.; 8/13/2013 8:30 PM
Paul said...: This is a website?; 8/13/2013 8:31 PM
Dusty Baker said...: I occasionally prefer to read an in-depth article on a topic I am interested in, utilizing the internet. For instance, something more than 140 characters.; 8/13/2013 8:32 PM

Paul said...: Nice!!! Someone get Juan some oxygen!; 8/13/2013 8:36 PM
Dusty Baker said...: Vinny thought it was a cut-off man issue with that throw. I think even if EYJr would have hit a cutoff man it still would not have been in time.; 8/13/2013 8:38 PM
Dusty Baker said...: 74 pitches for Harvey.; 8/13/2013 8:39 PM
Paul said...: I'd like to see a Crawford homerun; 8/13/2013 8:39 PM

spank said...: nice; 8/13/2013 9:01 PM
Paul said...: I didn't traffic caused me to do a red eye drive and I still hit congestion. Really bummed I didn't see these boys in person. Need to make a weeknight trip soon.; 8/13/2013 9:05 PM
Cliff Beefpile said...: C'mon, Ryu, make it through 7.; 8/13/2013 9:08 PM
BJ Killeen said...: Just woke up (in Detroit) to talk to Scott. Good timing. Gotta get the D'bags to lose; 8/13/2013 9:09 PM
Fred's Brim said...: this is a fucking jinx, I don't know why I am saying this, but I really like Uribe at third; 8/13/2013 9:11 PM
Fred's Brim said...: AT-AT Boy, HJ!; 8/13/2013 9:12 PM
Paul said...: He solid defensively and has hit much better on a team of sluggers he has a good role. Years past we needed the flukey 20 plus homerun version of him.; 8/13/2013 9:14 PM
Dusty Baker said...: Uribe's defense has been amazing. He's flashed it tonight a few times.

Speaking of defense, Dee Gordon is now in to bat.; 8/13/2013 9:17 PM
Fred's Brim said...: Cmon, Beli, we want a clean inning!; 8/13/2013 9:24 PM
Fred's Brim said...: great play, Beli!; 8/13/2013 9:29 PM
Cliff Beefpile said...: I'm perfectly fine with Uribe at third. I've always liked him as a person. And for once, unlike other feel-good type players: Pierre, Gordon, Barajas, Lilly, Maddux, etc, it's actually kind of worked out.; 8/13/2013 9:33 PM
Dusty Baker said...: Goldshit hit a walk-off HR for D'bags. We need this one to stay 7.5 games up.; 8/13/2013 9:33 PM
Dusty Baker said...: How fuckin old is Scott Atchison?; 8/13/2013 9:33 PM
Dusty Baker said...: 37 I see. He looks 47.; 8/13/2013 9:34 PM
Fred's Brim said...: GoldyShite hit a walk-off the other night too. If that's what they need to keep up...; 8/13/2013 9:39 PM

Dusty Baker said...: DP set up.; 8/13/2013 9:43 PM
Dusty Baker said...: The Boy from Long Beach. Oh, Vinny.; 8/13/2013 9:44 PM
Fred's Brim said...: Cmon,KJ! If you close this out, you get an HJ from AJ!; 8/13/2013 9:44 PM
Fred's Brim said...: Carl, I love you!; 8/13/2013 9:46 PM
Dusty Baker said...: (dry humps Carl); 8/13/2013 9:46 PM

Fred's Brim said...: If Kenley is gonna give up a run, this is a great way to do it; 8/13/2013 9:56 PM

He really isn't a doctor.

Nor is Dre. There is only one Dr. Dre.

Actually there are two Dr. Dres.; 8/13/2013 10:03 PM
