Carlos Frias (0-0, 5.65) vs. Jordan Zimmermann (10-5, 2.93).
Jordan Zimmermann is a two-time All-Star who led the league in wins last year (19), when he finished seventh in Cy Young Award voting. His ERA+ of 128 is the second-best across his six-year career.
Carlos Frias is making his first major league start today (filling in for Dan Haren). He was sent down to the minors earlier this week, but is back with expanded rosters. He's facing the NL West's best team (and the only team with a better record than the Dodgers in the NL), with a chance to take a critical series in this, the rubber match. You think Frias might be a bit nervous?
Nope, probably not.

I'm mere minutes from the yard, but couldn't get over there today. Looks like I would have had my choice of seat.
Dee's bunting. Don't tell Sax.
Blame Charley Steiner. He kept saying "the Dodgers are going to find themselves up a full game soon" and kept stating statistics about how the Dodgers are awesome when winning through 7, and the Nationals suck when losing through 7.
DAMMIT CHARLEY
Fuck this horseshit, what a goddamn waste. This one is on you, Donnie
and you Charlie
Adrian rips one but right at Werth
Even Vin is talking about Kenley being brought in for the 4-out save
and blame me for listening to the game, that never seems to go well
Dre works the walk
Carl strikes out after a battle
HOLY SHIT%$@#^&$%^$^
Werth drops Turner's fly in the right field corner, Dre scores from first! 3-3 good guys!
Werth tried to kind of basket-catch it, he may have been battling the sun
Joc strikes out for a third time but we are going to extras
uhoh Turner at short. That can't be good
yeesh, we are 5-10 in extras. Jahbless our bullpen
Werth flies to center
SoSG Fest has started early.
Baez gets Desmond swinging
Wow, Werth gives us a lease on life in the ninth!
sorry i am catching up on highlights
Baez gets Harper looking
2 Dos Equis on the bench, 2 Bud Lights under it? Must have been early in the day, before they sung the anthem
AJ works a 1-out walk
Dee rips one that gets over Cabrera's glove, AJ to second
fuck, Yasiel singles but AJ stops at third
Now you PR for Ellis?
I guess Donnie is playing for the sac fly
Dammit! That was our chance, in the tenth
dammit, Wright, get it together
Wright gets out of it
these idiots are driving me crazy
League in to calm my nerves
Of course he walks the leadoff guy
Werth with a single, runners at 1st and 2nd, no outs, we doomed
Desmond strikes out. Now would be a good time for one of your double play balls
Harper with a hard single to center, Rendon has to hold at third
fuck fuck fuckfuckfuck
what a bunch of shitsuckers, I am tired of this
League, you tire me
god damn, that Butera AB in the 11th killed me. How did we not score? what a bunch of assholes
Puig flied to short left
Adrian's strikeout in the 10th was absolutely pathetic too
Gonzales grounds to the pitcher
Uribe extends the pain with a single to right
HOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLY SHIIIIT
CARL TIES IT UP! WHAT A BUNCH OF FUCKERS, THIS TEAM!
Five minutes ago, I was on the balcony ledge crying
Now I am running around the room screaming with joy
Turner a foot from a double down the line
then Ks
on to the 13th
@Saxy I don't understand anything anymore
oh jesus, Correia in
Fister pinch hitting
Now we have to go through the Correia enema part of the physical
Great inning for Correia
It's such a long game, Doug Fister is a PH for Washington
Joc with a leadoff single
worthless AB from Correia trying to bunt
wild pickoff throw lets Joc go down to second
Joc to third on the slow Butera grounder
Dee tries to drag bunt his way on, of course he's out
dammitall Turner!
Maybe we shouldn't play him at short anymore
fuck, now Harper walks
LaRoche up to kill us again
fuck, Correia bounces a pitch that gets away from Butera, Desmond to third with less than 2 outs
This game is a fucking heart attack
slow tapper to short, Desmond scores when they can't turn the DP
idiots
stupid error, stupid wild pitch
Stop bunting, dee
Correia, you ass
what a waste of a fucking game
Puig grounds out
Adrian with a single up the middle
Uribe Ks badly
Carl grounds to short, we lose
assholes
Never had a reading a GT made me want to punch someone in the face. I feel like kicking some ass. Damn Bums.
I am still not over this game
@Saxy me neither. It reminds me of the 4+1 game except instead of winning in dramatic fashion, we are forced to smell Jayson Werth's beard until he tells us to stop
I want to do a PGT, but I'm not sure there are words and images that can properly convey our collective anguish.
@fb, gnomes: good to know you guys feel as empty as I do. What a train wreck of a hangover.
Saw this gem on the internets today. I think we can safely assume the same percentages also apply for the rest of the fan base.
How can a team that is arguably "good" by objective measures feel so subjectively bad?
That's a great find, Stubbsy!
One day we'll play like damn hell ass kings
I blame McCourt
We're number one! F*** yeah!
I'm declaring that this game doesn't deserve a PGT. Let the would remain open forever!
it could use a dash of salt, too
I dunno, it seems plenty salty in here to me...
Giants already up 6-0 but there's a delay in Detroit. Hopefully they have to start the game all over again
I think the salt was for the slugs that make up our bullpen
