Shit on a stick, really? Just when this team gets some momentum, having swept the D'backs, they roll into SF and puke up a game like this. The anticipated offensive fireworks didn't materialize; instead, Beckett and Lincecum each turned in five innings of ugly but effective pitching — Beckett somehow leaving the bases loaded in both the fourth and fifth innings — and the Dodgers held a 1-0 lead after five.
Withrow promptly entered in the sixth and gave up the tying run, aided by an error by Hanley. The Dodgers took the lead on a Justin Turner RBI in the seventh and wasted a Puig triple in the eighth, which of course turned out to be crucial because Kenley couldn't convert AGAIN, allowing the game to go into extras.
Jamey Wright out-highwired Beckett, stranding the bases loaded in the tenth and also pitching a scoreless eleventh. Then Donnie decided to trot out League, and you know what happened next.
Time of game: FOUR HOURS, 54 MINUTES. Number of ulcers created: too many to count.

LOLOLOLOL DONNIE SAID HE STILL TRUSTS LEAGUE AND I JUST CAN'T RIGHT NOW
Our bullpen was supposed to be a strength. Instead it blows.
What's eating Kenley Grape?
I have a little poem today:
Brandon League, you stink.
Go away.
Thank you.
Signed, the girl who stayed up till 3 am in Detroit to hear you lose.
@BJ: it could be worse. You could be in Det... oh, wait. Sorry about that.
Lost in all the crappy performances League is making for us is that fact that we're paying him $7.5M this year...and next year...with a possible player option for 2016.
Shit.
I blame Ned
Kenley's new faster straighter cutter ain't getting it done.
league is shit
@Sax: coming home tomorrow. Got game tickets for Sat. All is almost right with the world.
