Random rantings and ravings about the Los Angeles Dodgers, written by a small consortium of rabid Dodger fans. With occasional comments on baseball, entertainment, pop culture, and life in general.
Chris Capuano (4-7, 4.41) vs. Mike Leake (11-6, 3.51).
Uh oh, it's Cap, who steps in for Hyun-Jin Ryu, who is out with back stiffness...although nobody's complaining about the extra rest he's getting. Fortunately for the Blue, Leake is 1-2 with a 5.64 ERA lifetime against the Dodgers, who have won four of their last five in Cincinnati.
Momentum is on our side! The thin air of Denver is behind us! The magic number is 12!

No AJEllis? This T-Fed crap has me surly.
Where the party at?
On my way to (undisclosed city) for a bachelor party of a friend. Will try to check in as much as I can. Thankfully, many of the cats also going are big Dodgers fans, so we'll likely be around a TV as much as possible.
Gotta keep pitching.
Gotta keep hitching.

Kemp news post up top.
A Dodgers win and a DBacks loss will reduce the magic number to 10, but a Dodgers win and a DBacks win will officially eliminate the Giants from the division, so...WIN-WIN!
And, Win for Vin!
Good math, Gnomes. Can't wait for this one tonight.
Also, last Collins and Lyons game for 2013, and hopefully forever.
holy damn
Hanley bazonked that one
2-0 good guys
I love a quick start but I have a feeling Cap will need a few more runs tonight
wow...these MLB announcers on video SUCK worse than Lyons, and I didn't even think that was possible!
This don't look good
Wow, just saw the highlight and Hanley crushed the crap out of that ball
Who is hurt?
Don't know if you've ever eaten Skyline Chili, but it's nasty.
Cappy is out Sax
Just turned on the tv. I'm assuming it is Cap who is hurt.
I have indeed eaten skyline chili, and it was pretty good
Wow, Capuano has a lot more tattoos.
Oh, that's Peter Moylan.
Also on the Hanley HR highlight: Lyons actually called the HR before it happened, and then again as soon as it left the bat.
Moylan gets Cozart to K.
2-0 through two innings
Compared to Carney's it stinks...
Great, now Dee got hurt on a bunt single
SO STOP BUNTING DEE
Ball hits Dee in the back of the neck
@BJ: agreed. And Carneys blows doors on Pinks, imho
You gonna steal, Dee?
On-screen graphic notes that the Dodgers' 36-9 record post ASG is better than all these other great teams. Except the other teams in comparison have the full season record, not the 45-game record.
Bad sampling, Fox Prime Ticket
dang..almost Puig
Phillips bobbles the Puig ball but gets Puig at first. Dee advances to second
gotta get AG out of his slump
Fife Dawg in for a few innings hopefully
Why won't the MLB TV synch with MLB audio? I want to listen to Rick and Charlie, not these Reds clown. if I want to hear primetime, I'd have to pay for Premium TV...MLB gets you coming and going...amazing
cmon, blue! where was that?!
nice work, Fifer
attaboy, Hanley
Belated high five to BJ for the hate on Skyline. Shit is naaaaasty.
Boy, these Reds announcers are so jealous of the Dodgers and the money they can spend. It's really sad to listen to them. Veiled nasty comments.
Horrible CS call on Hanley there. You suck, ump
Not that Uribe would have made that matter anyway
stinky call there on Hanley
Thanks, Nomo. I went one time and got the hot dog in the chili...The hot dog was raw, cold, and the chili was one step below dog food. Never again!
That extra gum commercial with the origami swans te dad made for his daughter was really cute.
Awwwwwww
damn, so close
fuck
Great DP there even though we cede the run
that would have been a double play too
great DP
And Hanley makes an error on the next play
fudge
Uribe messed that one up for him
Fife is sucking some serious wind here. We are almost at Edinson Volquez levels of BP.
cmon, Fife, finish this off
Frustrating inning.
Gonna get some dinner guys. Back soon
good recovery, Fifer
throw strikes, Fife!
unacceptable
Mild groin strain...sounds painful
gift strike only delaying the inevitable
Can this guy get any lower?
Ryan Braun's Apology Calls to Milwaukee season ticket holders...
this is giving me agita
wow, nice DP!
FUCK
wow, nice inning, C-Dub
wow, nice 2 innings, C-Dub!
Young swings like he's got a short bat
Young with the dunker to keep us alive, Leake out after 7 2/3 innings
first pitch swinging, gotta love it
this is where we give up 3 runs to put this to bed
Hamilton steals the base on a low throw that AJ can't handle
Hamilton seems like what we thought Dee would be
Sad. Wasting an opp to go 1 up on Atl
goddamnit blue! how was that not a swing? Votto walks after being down 0-2
2 men on, nobody out
jesus this is May-like
Bruce almost made me look like a sad genius
throw strikes, Paco
god DAMMIT
Paco loads the bases without recording an out, Wilson in to piss gas on it
Officiating is bad tonight. Hope the Dbags lose. We need help tonight. It looks like May.
Infield in for Ludiwck
wow
holy
shit
what a double play
Cmon, Brian, finish this off
holy moly, Wilson shakes out of that somehow
now let's go get this! Be patient with Chapman. Let's take a few pitches
Cesar Izturis is in the game
I always liked him and AC in the middle infield

FB sad
BJ sad. Dodgers offense sadder.
we're gonna need some good pitching tomorrow and sunday. Latos and the Bailey going for the reds the next 2 nights. They have been a pain in our collective ass over the years. I really hope Zach and Clayton bring their Pitcher of the Month stuff
Well, that sucked.
this makes our half-assed game against Colorado on Wednesday that much more annoying. Why don't we load up against a bad team like Colorado?
laters, yall
Let's get one tomorrow
That was sad.
Well, at least we weren't the Yankees tonight: up 8-3, then lose 12-8.
Giants leading AZ 2-0 in the fifth
