Brett Anderson (1-1, 5.49) vs. Chase Anderson (0-1, 4.24).
I know, the reference doesn't really fit, when it was Agent Smith who duplicated himself rather than Mr. Anderson. But fans at today's afternoon game will see duplicated Andersons square off: Brett (ours), vs. Chase (theirs). Neither will be wearing 90's era sunglasses.
The magic number today, however, is 4: the Dodgers have not lost a game when scoring four or more runs. In some ways, the outcome of today's game is meaningless. However with the Giants inching their way back to 4.5 games behind the NL West-leading Dodgers...it would be nice to keep the early-season pressure on. So take the frickin' red pill already and let's keep the good times rolling.

One of the Dustettes and I will be out the Yard today if anyone wants to catch up in person.
I would like to publicly thank BJ (I think it was Mrs. Killeen anyway) for labeling Goldschmidt with the far more appropriate GoldSHIT.
I just love that.
At the Yard, Vinny!
Davey Lopes is SEVENTY years old today. Happy Day Davey, you look like you're maybe 50.

Agon gets first hit with 2 down in 4th. No score.
Slow game
Todays Vinnyism----While TV camera is showing baby sleeping in grandma's lap..."Do angels dream of angels? Maybe".
We love you, Vin!!
@Sax...It's been a total yawner.
Playing MPQ and waiting for something to happen. Dre with a single and Uribe up with two outs.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
@karen: thanks for the update... I'm watching now in the ninth (just in time to see Rollins feebly strike out)
WHY IS KENDRICK GOING FOR THREE???
Kendrick has been great for us but MAN that was stupid
I guess he saw Trumbo fumbling with the ball, but I still think he should've stopped at second.
You're not allowed to block the plate, but you can block one of the other bases and invite a collision?
I know the rule is you don't get thrown out at 3rd to make the first out or the third out. But getting thrown out at 3rd to make the second out?? Well, that sucks like a mofo too.
A-Gon reaches on an infield single. Two out for little AG (Alex Guerrero)
Y'all up for xtras??
Nope. On to extras, 0-0
Who figured this one would be the pitcher's duel?
Ugh, Goldschmidt. What a pain in the dick he is.
leadoff double for the snakes in the 10th. not good
whew, we get out of it, thanks to Paco
0-0, on to B10
Wow is Trumbo an awkward outfielder.
Ethier with a leadoff double!
Note how he didn't try and go for three, Howie!
Dusty are you still at the game?
Dre sticks the landing at 2nd. No 3rd base out this time around.
Uribe takes the first pitch and bunts it straight up, luckily it falls foul before a Snake can catch it.
1-1 count
Uribe you gotta swing here. I want jazz hands
Remember the last time you tried to get Uribe to bunt, Donnie!?
Uribe hasn't bunted in two years, says Vin
Another bunt that goes straight up, but foul.
STOP BUNTING
And Uribe swings on a gopherball slider for a weak K.
Grandal PH for Ellis.
Grandal walks, SVS Ks. And here's Joc the kid.
Pederson is 0-for-4 with 3 Ks today.
And like the Diamondbacks, the leadoff double can't score.
On to the 11th, 0-0
Nice inning by Paco. Now score a run dammit!
my god, Rollins is incredibly ineffective with the bat
Kendrick, three-pitch K
A-Gon with an ugly K as well.
0-0 through 11.
nicasio Ks pollock, who thought it was ball four. Pollock starts jawing. One out.
Here's Goldschmidt.
well at least J-Roll can play defense. GIDP!
Rollins at least doing it with the glove.
On to 13th.
i'm picturing Dusty going nuts in beer withdrawal.
OUT AT THE PLATE!!!
Nice play! Glad Howell didn't get hurt on that.
YAZ WITH THE WALK OFF!!!
GONE! Dodgers sweeeeeeeeeeep! We make grand ol' Grandal party!
andre dancing at the home plate celebration there was hilarious
I think someone needs to take Dre aside and remind him that he is indeed white and white guys can't dance.
@Karen
He's only half white, so he should at least be able to pass on his dancing!
@Sax
You nailed me! No beer in several extra innings is a bummer. We finally left bc the Dustette was cold and I was thirsty.
Grandal, doing it all!
Sons undefeated this season!
noice
I hated the wild pitch/passed ball and was about to be furious for the rest of the day but Grandal getting it to JP and that great tag was amazing. YOu hardly ever see that be anything but a pitcher scared to get near the plate. They are lucky to catch the ball from the catcher let alone stick in there and make the play
when did Mark Madsen join the Dodgers?
