Game 137 Thread: August 31 @ Padres, 1p

Save us, Ryu!

Hyun-Jin Ryu (13-6, 3.28) vs. Eric Stults (6-14, 4.63).

With the NL West lead down to 2.5 games, the Dodgers call upon Hyun-Jin Ryu to return from the DL and and frickin' save us. Playing the role of Ken tonight is Eric Stults, who took the loss against us in June, but beat us in August, off of five measley innings pitched. We certainly haven't done much street fighting in the last two games, both one-run losses with poor offensive outputs. Can Ryu bring his shoryuken and win this match?

We've left six on base through five. Pathetic. I think we've had five walks, and can't score 'em. Credit kemp for a two-out single to take the lead in the fifth, but SVS GIDPed right afterward.

Giants up 6-1. Did Milwaukee send its b-team?

Stults out

second and third, none out in the top of the eighth. surely we can score at least one run here, right Carl?

Steve Sax said...

And Carl works an 0-2 count back for a walk. Rancho Ardiendo for Uribe.

oh my god, these camo uniforms are hideous

(the Padres' uniforms, not ours)

Uribe with a 3-2 count gets a basehit to right, scores one. Rancho ardiendo for Ellis.

Steve Sax said...

WP during the AJ Ellis AB scores another run to make it 4-1. Ellis walks them loaded again.

And Darwin Barney hangs back on a 0-1 count, high curve ball, and hits a basehit to right to score Crawford and Uribe. 6-1 Dodgers!
