It seems like just yesterday that we heralded the onset of another attempt at the elusive four-game win streak. Today, we stand on the precipice of doing just that. Thus a repetition of the now-talismanic Game Thread image.
And who better to tee off on than Justin Masterson? Per MLB's game preview:
Masterson's start was pushed back two days after it was revealed he has been bothered by a sore knee all season. The struggling sinkerballer's up-and-down year continued when he gave up five runs on seven hits in four innings vs. the D-backs.Problem is, though, Josh Beckett has been suffering "general soreness." Apparently nothing specific, and nothing related to his arm or last year's surgery, but something the team is monitoring. If he can't go, sounds like Red Patterson would be called into action. In that case, you may be seeing Will Ferrell's image again soon.
Don't make Will angry.

In a mildly unprecedented move, Yasiel Puig is currently 9 rows deep in the Dodger Stadium stands signing autographs for fans
Four game curse.
Frickin' A, this is not a good start. Missed pickoff throw, RBI double, and HR has us down 3-0 before I can blink. Come on!
Never fear. Puig double, AGon HR makes it 3-2 in the first.
Nomo, I don't understand that Gonzalez tweet
So we get two back, but Try-and-fail Ks with the bases juiced. 3-2 CLE through 1.
Wow. Looks like I've missed all kinds of stuff.
Orel, you need to pay more attention to radio commercials.
That would explain it. We get shitty reception at Casa Orel
neither Josh Beckett nor Tim Lincecum will have no-hitters today
0-0 in the third in SF
Beckett doubles! Dee doubles! But how does Beckett not score?
RA and Matty up...
Ouch!! Now 2 out, RA with Dre up.
How do we have 2 doubles and not score??
wow, we've got a perfect game going with men left on base
This is April-May behavior, guys
wow, Karen's boy flashing the old-timey leather!
Sweet Baby Jaysus, that catch!
I MISSED IT!! What did Matty do??
2-out walk, 2 out double have Beckett in trouble again
sorry single, Puig got to that quickly!
Oh geez, I did get back in time to see the Indians score two runs, however.
Goddanmmit, Swisher double brings both of them in. Figure it out, Josh!
general soreness
why am I watching? There's no way we get 4 in a row
general sorryness
hey a third out
yaaay
5-2 CLE in the third.
Sack the hell up, Dodgers
Danny Masterson seems to have that slider working again
2 outs, time to give up 3 runs
SF up 3-0 in the fourth
Gonzo with the wheels!
When the Dodgers come up in the fifth, Danny Masterson is going to need a place to Hyde.
Adrian outraces Bourn to the bag for the third out
feels like a night to drop temporarily back into second
Glad I'm missing all this Vinny gold, per what I'm reading on the Twitters.
hehe good one, karen
another double from Beckett? how will we waste this one?
Dee with a bunt single, Beckett to third. How will we waste this?
It's one of those nights, I think.
No-out madness! Puig RBI single makes it 5-3 CLE
Puig with the single to right, Beckett scores, Dee to third
Hyde getting booted out of the basement by Red
Crockett is pitching? Where's Tubbs?
Mark Saxon @markasaxon 1m
Now, the Indians are challenging, hoping for the rare 7-2-4 triple play
Mark Saxon @markasaxon 14s
So, the Indians win their challenge, and at least temporarily get the triple play, but now Don Mattingly comes out to review play at home
Triple FUUUUUUUUUCK!
Pedro Moura @pedromoura 9s
That was almost baseball's first-ever temporary triple play, folks. But it's permanent. 7-2-4.
definitely one of those games
please don't get anybody injured
7-2-4 triple play. Only the Dodgers.
Goodbye, first place
Kemp walks. Ethier singles. Uribe up
2 on, nobody out, another triple play opportunity!
RA...Again.
heh another rancho to screw up
uh oh RA
that's a good way to start the screwup, Butera with a K
Hanley in to hit into the double play
if he can pinch hit and stay in, why is he not starting? the better question is why is he playing at all?
So he can strike out with the bases loaded
This is some shit-suckery tonight.
well at least it wasnt a double play. Clint can make the third out instead
ayup.
whelp, that's it for me
win this one without me
Gnite yall
I wouldn't blame her if Karina gave up on the Dodgers tonight
Karina, give up? NEVER!
Wasted chances, wasted efforts.
No four-game streak.
Looks like tonight was Play Like The First-Half Dodgers night
*streaks*
At least we get a police pursuit to soothe our frayed nerves.
Where there's a Will, there's a...
oh, shit.
PGT up.
