Our @Dodgers haven't gone on a long winning streak, I hope that will be coming soon!

Clayton Kershaw (3-2, 3.57) vs. Jose Quintana (3-4, 3.61).
First things first: If you haven't read Cee Angi's profile on Vin Scully at SB Nation, do so here.
Done? OK. Wasn't that great? Anyway, interleague play returns to Dodger Stadium as the White Sox roll into town. The Dodgers have the good fortune of missing Chris Sale, and the White Sox get Kershaw first up. Take that, suckers!
Then again, the White Sox aren't the team that just dropped three of four to the Pirates, who lead only the eternally cellar-dwelling Cubs in the NL Central. The White Sox are the team that just lost two of three to the Padres. They are ripe for the plucking. Finish them, Clayton!

Speaking of ripe for the plucking, Chone Figgins is batting fucking leadoff. Look for another 0-for performance.
Figgins, 2B
Kemp, LF
Puig, RF
Ramirez, SS
Gonzalez, 1B
Van Slyke, CF
Turner, 3B
Butera, C
Kershaw, P
I'll take the over on that. Maybe because I haven't been watching any games.
"Chone is due, I've got a feeling about this one"
and you can't tell me SVS is a better CF than Matt
Gotta get Matty his reps in LF.
Who put together this big shit sandwich of a lineup?
Neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed Colletti!
The mlb.com preview is all about Abreu's return.
(Not Bobby, to the Dodgers)
Hey Magic:
Our @Lakers haven't gone on a long winning streak, either. I hope that will be coming soon!
Hmm. With a .243 BA, you'd think Chone Figgins has been an unmitigated disaster. However, acc. to baseball reference, Chone has a 109 OPS+, driven by his .404 OBP (which trails only Yasiel Puig in OBP; Puig is at .437).
Hmm.
Does anybody else remember the headlines in the LA Times when Robin Ventura came over to the Dodgers?
"We needed Batman. We got Robin".
Still makes me giggle.
not a lot of hustle happening in that first inning. Matty was barely halfway down the line on that double play and Puig would have been safe if he has busted it out of the box
We have one hit! They have none.
0-0 through 1.5
Clayton off to a nice start
wow my gameday just loaded and it's all tweaked up. let me reload
yikes, it still looks the same. anyone else having this issue?
Reading that Vinny story. I like the picture in the Let the Crowd Road section, a carton of smokes and a quart of Schaefer!
I think SVS is the only player who can do anything against lefties
two-out SVS walk leads to nada
0-0 through 2
I've got to get rid of this mlb.com gameday window, it looks horrible
switching to mlb.tv
do it, Saxy!
Another good inning for Clayton
no score through 3
i did it, FB!
there goes the no-hitter
Chone will not have an 0-fer performance tonight, for the record
Vin calls that one staying in the yard, and of course it goes yard.
It's been that kind of year.
2-0 CWS
godDAMMIT!
Clayton goes back to work. 2-0 White Sox through 3.5.
This is team is hard to watch. They show you slight flickers of hope but then quickly piss all over them
From watching all of these games, I can't believe we're even at .500. It seems like we should be at .250.
Uribe, on the other hand, is well over 250
puig, first ball swinging, quick out.
@Sax, I know what you mean about our record. We aren't as bad as were early last season when were kicking the ball all over the field and hitting and pitching like shit. It seems like that if we can get just a tiny bit better (or healthier) at each aspect, we can win a lot of games. I am only 60% confident that will happen
my god, we're going to lose again. with kershaw on the mound.
bloody hell.
@FB, this team plays with no heart
Beautiful curve from Kid K to end top of 5th.
Let's get some runs, you assholes!
ugh, I am tired of these buttholes.
Time for bed. Gnite all. Keep fighting.
WAKE THE FUCK UP, DODGERS
Geez, it's like we scored 12 runs and then the team thinks they get the next three games off.
Mattingly had better well light a fire
What happened to Gameday?
Clayton taking care of business. 1-2-3 6th, singles in the bottom of the inning.
Show us some BeastMode here, Matt.
Come Puig! You're our only hope!
Two one, one out for Puig. Quintana at 82 pitches.
Just when Gameday catches up to iOS7 graphics, Apple releases iOS8.
Puig goes down swinging.
Uh come on Hanley!
Hanley!
Getting gifts left and right in this inning. Need a clean hit now.
We get one on the throwing error. We'll take it. Big time.
I'll take it!
Call for another hit, Paul!!
Van Slyke homerun right here.
épale everyone!
though I will gladly take these two runs, it troubles me the continuing bad defense from the White Sox.
I guess I should hide during these series :(
Two errors! We'll take it!
But I'll take a single.
Epale Sistah!
Or a walk. Ok now let's do some damage.
épale everyone!

RANCHO ARDIENDO
Yeah!!
Are we getting the breaks or what??
Turn Turn Turn!
Gotta have some luck mixed in to get back on track.

Dodgers turn two errors into five runs. And for Kershaw!
Ahhh Matty. From 3-0 to a strikeout? You are so much better then this.
Javy!
Three CWS errors = gift win for us
PgTUP!
