Zack Greinke (15-8, 2.76) vs. Ashley Madison (18-9, 2.91)
In Ashley Madison's last start against the Dodgers, the Giants scored nine runs, and the Dodgers zero. In Zack Greinke's last start against the Giants, the Dodgers scored seventeen runs, and the Giants zero. With the two facing each other tonight, you figure something's gotta give.
The Dodgers have to win both of the next two games to clinch the West without help from another team. They're not going to get it done with Dee, Puig, AGon, and Kemp putting up oh-fers. They're not going to get it done with sloppy defense*. And they're definitely not going to get it done by leaving Kevin Correia out there Diane on the mound. If any of that happens again, this series won't mean Jack.
*Except for that Puig throw. OH LAWD, THAT PUIG THROW. Let's watch it again!

I was feeling pretty cocky going into last nights game. Tonight I'm feeling quite humble.
Gnomes...Thanks for the replay on Yasiel's throw. I guess we had one highlight.
We got this.

(CRIES)
BLANCO OWNS US
BLANCO IS THE NEW PAGAN. FUCK THEM BOTH
PINCHE BLANCO. SIT DOWN YOU MUTT.
Spank is en fuego!
NO MORE SWINGING FOR THE FENCES. SCORE SOME RUNS
FIRST TIME I'VE SEEN AN AMISH PERSON WITH RED HAIR. #TURNER
HOMERUN TURNER!!!!!
JT!
Puig HBP. Intentional?
Kill kill kill!!
HOORAY FIREWORKS
What the heck is happening; I just see "on field delay"
Anyone thrown out?
NO EJECTIONS
MKW's CELEBRATE
Muthafuckin' Bison! Eat a dick, madbum!
IM GOING TO FUCK JOHN KRUK IN THE EAR
Wow, MLB.TV is way behind the ESPN broadccast. Totally worth it to hear Vin instead of the ESPNers.
épale everyone!
how's this wonderful thing where they try to move runners, pleasant, isn't it?
I LIKE THIS. THIS IS GOOD.
FUCK I fell asleep and just woke up and missed Matty's homer. MKWs very definitely celebrating!!
ID RATHER LISTEN TO BIEBER THAN LISTEN TO THESE ESPN MONKEYS ANYMORE
(LISTENS TO BIEBER)
interesting start!
Bieber and Neeebs sound a lot alike when they sing.
Somebody get Bumdipshit a tissue or an antihistamine or something.
Spank, you gotta turn down the volume on your internets
I always thought Neeebs was from the Yoko Ono school of singing.
Vinny with the great story about Alvin Dark trying to take out Jackie.
NEEEBS=MARTHA WASH
ESPN vs Giants station. These are not good options.
OH FUCK. DAMN.
SAMUEL JACKSON TOOK OVER MY INTERWEBS
YES THEY DESERVE TO DIE AND I HOPE THEY BURN IN HELL
ITS NICE OF ESPN TO THROW OUT A HELPING HAND TO CURT SCHILLING.
(ROLLS EYES)
ITS NICE OF JOHN KRUK TO POINT OUT THE NEGATIVES OF THE DODGERS AND NOT THE POSITIVES.
(FUCKS KRUK IN THE EAR)
I used to like Kruk. These days, not so much.
I HATE BIEBER
these games will be suffering :(
Zack not impressing me yet.
Dammit, Greinke, come on.
That really sucked.
Van Slyke looked like he was on roller skates.
I'VE SUFFERED ENOUGH. I NEED TRANQUILITY
SERENITY NOW!
Spank...I'm having visions of Frank Costanza dancing around in my head.
what in the hell is going on here? I walk away for a couple of minutes and this?
I blame Mart Hart. Where did she go?
No more walking away FB. You're in for the duration. We need your mojo!
SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE COSTANZA. GEORGE THAT IS
Mart Hart the Flaming Menudos washboard player?
MARY HART IS FRONT ROW,ME THINKS
Need to be patient against this big turd. Make him throw strikes!!
Madison Bumturd. I like it.
We need a good at bat here Hanley.
it'd be nice to get a few more runs
MART IS BACK
THE BOOZE HAS NULLIFIED THE HD.
That wasn't good....
Vinny, being the class act that he is, is playing the worlds smallest violin for Diablo Pagan. Me on the other hand, having no class at all says ha ha Diablo! No soup for you fucker!!
MART HART IS CURRENTLY ON THE ROAD WITH JED AND JIMBO'S "MARRY YOUR COUSIN" REUNION TOUR.
The Zackster is making MKW nervous. We are going to need a lot more runs the way he's looking.
Bumturd hits Puig and hits a home run. So when do we drill him in the ribs?
NASTY CURVE FOR THE STRIKEOUT RIGHT THERE BY THE ZACKSTER
I missed Puig getting hit. Did it look like there was intent?
He got hit in the foot. Could have been. Not sure if Bumturd said something to make Puig mad, but he popped up and was pissed.
SVS may be safe there.
SHIT
That was awfully close...too close for them to reverse it probably.
In other news, GO CUBBIES!
We needed a gift single like that.
Come on AJ at least raise his pitch count up.
NASA'S MARS MAVEN PROBE WOULD HAVE HAD BETTER VIDEO FOR THAT REPLAY THAN THE MLB'S. HORRID.
IsonGarner has settled in. I hope we can sneak another run or two
Nice 10-pitch AB by Ellis, but unfortunately results in an out
Well at least it was a 10 pitch at bat.
It's good to see AJ making solid contact again the last few games
I'm about to make solid contact with some booze right now. Mmmm scotchy scotch.
SVS!!!
YOWSA
Amish Bill Murray with the diving catch in left!
wow great catch, SVS!
good inning, Zack
C'mon, Puig!
AH FUCK.
FB nervous again
3-2 through five. Not feeling good about this
It's never easy, is it?
attaboy, Zack
For the love of Lasorda get some Geico now boys!
@Stubbsy 9:00pm I loved Vin's line from last night: "Of course, if the Dodgers did something easily, it wouldn't be the Dodgers."
You don't usually hear commentary like that from Vin
That was Ball four damn it.
dangit, Matty Ks on ball 4
Please get a hit Hanley.
Throwing all high fastballs. Until that breaking ball. Not sure how Hanley stayed alive.
If anyone would know, it's Vinny.
Is it me or have we not heard much from HanRam lately?
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
damn, that cutter thing gets Hanley too
slider I guess, kinda looks like what Clayton throws
are we done scoring runs?
NICE GREINKE. PENCE HAD NO CLUE ON THAT STRIKEOUT
@DBT sure feels like it. I hope we can scratch another one somehow
GREINKE'S OVERHAND CURVE REMINDS ME OF GAGNE'S.
great job, Zack!
He's over 100 pitches now
oh man our bullpen is giving me hives. Will Donnie go with Baez in the 8th?
BEST LEAVE GREINKE IN. HE CAN GO ONE MORE INNING.
no more runs... hope our pitchin can hold them
What do you guys think? Final score 3-2?
AJ Ks
IsonGarner over 100 pitches and batting second in the 8th
Zack was on deck behind AJ. Maybe he'll be coming back out.
I don't like the idea of leaving him in.
I don't like the idea of taking him out.
@Orel goddamit I sure hope so
Howell and Wilson readying in case Greinke needs help
IsonGarner still in
Come on Zack.
C'mon Greinke. Let's go Zack to Kenley
THROW HIM A FASTBALL
BANG
Sit down you big turd.
"I think the last pitcher that swung that hard was Babe Ruth." —Vin, on Bumgarner's swinging K
(FAINTS)
That was scary
oh sweet jesus
keep it in the park please
Bear down Zack.
117 pitches for ZG
Way to gut that out!
great fucking job, Zack!
Whoops 118
now drown that elbow in a fucking glacier of ice
Mr. Waaaaaade Boggs didn't get it done.
Hell of an outing for Zack tonight. Wow.
3-2 LA, mid-8
who the hell do we have to pitch the 9th? Kenley's had somewhere around 40 pitches the last 2 nights. Let's get 7 insurance runs so we don't have to worry about it
Dammit! So close
Molly Knight getting flak on Twitter. First time for everything
CHARLES ALMOST JUMPED OUT OF HIS GRAVE ON THAT ONE.
Another homerun please.
@Paul We have got the great Wade Boggs' pants!
GIMLI!
BOOM!!!
WTF? FUCK YEAH!
FUCK YES JAAAAAYTEEEEEEEE
Wow, this is an incredible Turner performance against Ashley. I can't believe it.
That felt good.
seriously though, who's pitching the 9th? Barney?
MART HART
Hey Puig what the hell
Puig swinging at shit two feet out of the strike zone.
Vin kind of half predicting we blow this lead
Adrian still doing the first-pitch swinging thing, huh
Show me the way to go home. I'm tired and I wanna go to bed. I had a little drink about an hour ago and it went right to my head.
Kenley coming in? This is no good. You're gonna kill him, Donnie
Bring in the gimp!
FB extra nervous
Cmon Kenley, you can do this
No confirmation yet that Mart Hart was knofed in the robs during a dust-up in right field pavilion in the 7th inning.
That last pitch didn't make me feel great.
KENLEY OVERTHROWING. RELAX MOFO.
NICE PLAY DEE!
OH WAIT..
Nice play Barney!!
KEEP CALM Y'ALL. KENLEY'S GOT THIS.
(PRAYS)
shit
One more boys.
Make this happen, KJ.
Cmon Kenley, please no homers
still have a bad feeling about this. Pubes on second, Pence up...not good
WUB
WAY TO GO! BIG WIN--
We beat Bumgarner...actually, Turner beats Bumgarner!
YES YES FUCK YES!
Attaboy Kenley!
1 is the magic number, baby
TOMORROW WE CLINCH AND HOPEFULLY NOT CLENCH.
