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.
The Good: Down 6-3 in the ninth inning, the Dodgers rallied to tie it on an AGon home run and RBIs by SVS and Dee Gordon.
The Bad: Josh Beckett got them in that hole by giving up five ER in four innings.
The Ugly: Kenley Jansen blew it for the second straight night, giving up the game-losing homer to Victor Martinez. Oh, and the time of game? Four hours and 16 minutezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

two games with Detroit, split 'em, both in extras. Not bad, but could have been a lot better (or a lot worse).
In good news, the Giants lost.
Meanwhile, Yes is coming to the Greek Theater
I bailed after the first inning took half an hour. I like our fight. I don't like our starting pitching. I am starting to worry a little about Kenley
Beckett is horrible.
I specifically picked this game to go to because it was going to be Ryu's turn in the rotation, so I was pretty pissed.
I'm going to have to respectfully disagree with you, Sax. Beckett is horrible AND slow.
re Kenley: not having regular catcher AJEllis to sequence him is really hurting. I was watching him closely on a monitor from the bar in RF two nights ago, and you could tell from the look on his face that he wasn't sure how to pitch the batters he faced.
The communication with Fed is a fixable problem, at least. A.J. is supposed to rejoin the team at some point, so they can have a big pow-wow or something.
Hey Dusty, I saw a video package last night of Tuesday night's highlights. They asked Ice Cube who his favorite Dodgers were. First name out of his mouth was Dusty Baker.
The pitch to VMart was set up down and in and was on target. Who sets up down and in to lefties? Yeesh.
@Nomo
Exactly! I was walking along the loge perimeter when I heard him say that, so I raised I my arms and whooped for Dusty (I was wearing my authentic jersey that has "Baker" on the back).
Rush!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!
^ what he said
SI!
For those who bet Becket's ER allowed would top gametime in hours; you may now collect your winnings.
Actually, I phrased it as HR allowed, but I should have said ER.
Shit. I just read the GT. No lineup posted=No win.
Damn you Nomo!!! Damn you!
