Game 126 Thread: Aug. 17 vs. Brewers, 1p

The Brewers plan to eat the Dodgers' lunch today.

Dan Haren (10-9, 4.50) vs. Wily Peralta (14-7, 3.46).

The Dodgers are in salvage mode, in danger of getting swept after the Brewers trumped our aces with a total of nine runs of offense. Now we turn to the enigmatic Haren, who is riding the momentum of a modest two-game win streak. With Uribe joining Ryu and Hanley on the DL, suddenly the starting rotation and the bats look more vulnerable than ever. Dodgers nursing a 4 1/2 game lead, Giants playing the Phillies...we're playing in interesting times.

Ned says Guerrero (Alex, not Pedro) and Pederson will be called up on or by September 1.

Dee should use "Been Caught Stealing" as his walk-up music just to mess with people

Who's going to the @Dodgers game today? @dustybkrdodgr @sosgsosg meet me for a brewsky? That new Montejo is perfect for a hot day

Dusty Baker said...

Won't be out there today. However, I strongly recommend agains the Montejo. That is some shite beer. I was all in yesterday for it until I tasted it. It tastes like Modelo Especial Light Lite.

I'll review it fully in a post.

Orel said...

Down 2-0. That was fast

Dusty Baker said...

Puig pressing to generate offense. Bats are getting less smart. Swinging for fences early.

Actually a lot of first pitch swinging and not working counts going on.

Orel said...

Just what we need. Errors

Orel said...

Once you go first-pitch swinging, you don't go back

Orel said...

I wonder what it's like to be bad and unimproveable at your job

Orel said...

In play, run(s)

Orel said...

Now we know how Giants fans feel

PHI 1, SF 0, bot 2

Old friend Dan Haren's bad ERA.

Greg said...

The ERA, not the pitcher.

Dusty Baker said...

What does Haren have against eh Equal Rights Amendment?

Hideo Nomo said...

Welp, fuck this. Might as well put up a PGT.

Way ahead of you, Gnomes
