Game 67 Thread: June 11 @ Reds, 4p


Hyun-Jin Ryu (7-2, 3.08) vs. Johnny Cueto (5-5, 1.97)

The Dodgers have not won more than three games in a row this year. That is...not good. This will be only their fourth attempt at winning four in a row. Their last attempt was foiled by...the Cincinnati Reds.

This season has been grim, but if they can torch Johnny Cueto, that would be fantastic. (If the game isn't postponed by another storm, that is.)

Oh, and speaking of going from three wins to four, this will also be your Kings/Rangers Stanley Cup Final Game 4 Thread. Here's hoping you'll get to read "Richards scores! Kings win!"

That's the thing about these pun posts. They just encourage more puns.

Want to see if Kempy goes invisible as he did last night.

Orel said...

It's not like he's the second coming of Kirby Puckett.

Hopefully this game turns out all right. Otherwise, consider me a channel [i]surfer[/i].

RT @Dodgers: Hanley Ramirez has been scratched with right AC joint irritation. Miguel Rojas will start at shortstop tonight. #Dodgers

Damn you, AC!

Doom.

Hideo Nomo said...

Kemp has been banished to the Negative Zone for arguing balls and strikes.

Dusty Baker's Toothpick said...

Kemp just couldn't wait until after the game to get himself a heaping bowl of that Skyline Chili.

And Hanley hits into an inning-ending DP. Sad trombone

Steve Sax said...

HanRam GIDP 6-4-3. Dammit.

Steve Sax said...

That was against Broxton too. Hanley had a 2-1 count. He should have been patient and waited for the meltdown

Orel said...

Broxton scouting report: WAIT FOR THE MELTDOWN

Orel said...

Shorthanded goal for Dustin Brown!

Steve Sax said...

We now have only two more innings for the comeback win

Orel said...

Maholm has been reliable. 5-0 Reds

Steve Sax said...

Maholm making sure that our comeback effort is even more difficult

Why the fuck do we even have Maholm on the roster?!

karen said...

2-1 Rangers end of 2.

Steve Sax said...

Okay, so here is the spin...Now we get to win it in front of the home fans. That's the best I can do.

Sorry, guys. Only Orel should do Kings threads.
