Josh Beckett (0-0, -.--) vs. Anibal Sanchez (0-0, 4.50)
Josh Beckett returns from the DL as the Dodgers look to sweep a two-game series with the Tigers. Place your bets now: Which number will be higher, home runs allowed by Beckett or total hours the game lasts?
I will be at the Ravine tonight for my first game of the season. I'm looking forward to giving the new bars a spin. Hit me up in the comments or on Twitter if you want to say hi.

Hellooooooo? I am on Dodger Stadium wi-fi.
Where the hell is everyone?
It's good Nomo. We used it there also.
Big game today, a "series" sweep would be huge.
It's all up to you, Gnomes.
Watchin the sandlot
I won one dinner already, got two more riding on it.
On my sofa all!! Lets all harness the good juju for Josh!!
Beckett registers at least one out tonight.
Beckett is still looking for that second out. Tiger on second base.
Two on, one out.
How many runs will have scored when Beckett records his second out?
Be nice Steve. This is about all we got and beggars can't be choosers.
Beckett now at 18 pitches, still one out
@karen: I'm trying, I'm trying.
So is Ian Kinsler, who just stole third.
Need the DP here
And, Beckett gives up a sac fly, so he gives up a run for that elusive second out.
Beckett is just a frickin' disaster.
@karen: but we're not beggars! we've got the highest payroll in MLB! And we're trotting Beckett out there!
Beckett gets a K!
Three outs, 26 pitches, 1 run, two SB yielded. Sheesh, Gnomes is in for a long night...
I guess we've been given small mercies with only 1 run scored.
Finally on the sofa, Vinny!
Good chance to get one back here, lads. Come on, A-Gon, get going.
too bad dee was CS, or we'd be tied
we have more hits. they have more runs.
Arizona scores 3 on SF in the top of the first
Hooray for us!!
I fucking love this stadium.
Sounds like some bad work with the leather from the Tigres.
Ok, my man everyone!!Show us your stuff big guy!!
Glad to hear, Gnomes. Isn't it great? It preserves the best of what was good about it but adds some new amenities that just make it that much better.
"Show us your stuff big guy!!" -- Neeebs' mom
It's ok Matty. When I grow up, I still want you to be the father of my children.
wait we are winning????
anibal is actually throwing more pitches in the first than beckett?
it's a race to the bottom!
Following the game on a GT is an exercise in detective work.
@Orel You mean my masterful insight isn't enough to paint a perfect picture of what's happening in the game?
I'm back. Had to watch the end of the Sandlot. These Detroit TV announcers suck, too.
Nice
Thank eewe
Annabelle is on track to make about 73 wild pitches.
We could fill a blog with your masterful insight, Dusty. Oh wait, we have!
How do you do!!!
Using the words Uribe and squeeze in the same sentence just feels right.
Shades of Tommy Lasorda. I love it!!
Squeeze?
Gordon ran down the line at 3.75 sec
That's a lotta pitches in 2
61 pitches so far for Annibelle.
Started reading War and Peace in the first inning. Pretty sure I'll finish before the game's over.
That was pretty
Started writing War and Peace II: The Reckoning in the first inning. Will be ready for publication by the fourth.
Oof. I need to walk off this Dodger Dog, chicken parm and and beer, you guys. Gonna do a few more circle tours of the stadium.
3 run HR over Kemp's head. This is your modern Beckett. I'm afraid he's Jason Schmidt at this point. RIP Beckett's arm.
Hunnycutt: "okay, Josh, go throw it right down the middle. He'll never suspect a thing."
On Game Day that pitch looked like something a pitcher in on the secret would throw to fulfill a Make-a-Wish dream of a kid who always wanted to jack one out of the Yard.
Welp. Game over.
Dayum Saxie, don't beat around the bush, straight up...how do you feel about Josh right now?
Dre never met a first pitch he didn't swing at.
In good news, D'backs are up 7-2. Lincecum lasted only four innings.
Excellent news, Sax!
Don't worry, guys — League's warming up.
Briefly saw Alanna Rizzo on the Club level. Even cuter in person.
Poor max. His bobblehead looks like a child pornographer.
I gotta go to sleep. Can't do two in a row
Sons of Steve Garvey @sosgsosg 2m
That awkward moment when @alannarizzo passes you on the Club level and your brain goes "DURRRRR" and you don't say anything. Smooth. -N
"Alanna! One day I hope to watch you on TV."
Does Zack Lee get called up next week? Or will they go with Fife or Magill? You know Beckett is going back on the shelf wuth some kind if mystery injury after tonight.
Brandon League, picking up where Josh Beckett left off
I'm sure they don't want to start the clock ticking on Lee just yet.
Lucky sob
Alanna Rizzo @alannarizzo 2m
@sosgsosg - say hello next time! :)
Sons of Steve Garvey @sosgsosg 1m
@alannarizzo Will do! -N
Gnomes, you smoothie!
OK, I knew I was going to wander around a lot tonight, but I'm starting to miss my seat.
Yes, I am quite the player.
Welp, two out madness begins again.
What did FedEx do?
Sweet throw to Dee.
Sweet, for our D.
I have a bad feeling about this.

Here comes the dramatic comeback attempt that will ultimately end in dashed hopes and a troubled night's sleep.
You act is if it's happened before.
Dodgers score two in the ninth, trail 6-5. Two out, men on 1st & 3rd, Dee Gordon up.
Tie game!!!
Gordon ties it up for us!!
Not a series for the closers.
Right you are Orel. Kenley gives up a solo shot to Victor Martinez.
Shit.
Then single, fly out, single. First and second now for the Tigers.
KJ with a K. Two down.
JP coming in now. Hit the showers KJ.
JP strikes him out. Going to the bottom of the 10th down by one.
Joba the Hut in to pitch.
HanRam with the swinging bunt for an infield single.
Joba out. Some lefty in to face AGon.
AGon goes down swinging. One out.
Ethier check swing called for strike three. New pitcher coming in to face Kemp. Two down.
Kemp grounds out and it's bedtime.
Dusty was right!
shit, that was a long game.
