Clayton Kershaw (5-3, 3.36) vs Odrisamer Despaigne (3-4, 4.72).
Odrisamer Despaigne? I'm getting desperado migraines just thinking about tonight's game. There were a lot of concerns earlier on this season, but everyone is now calling Clayton Kershaw restored, having gone three starts and 22 innings while allowing only two runs. I suppose that was just a misdiagnosed reaper. Meanwhile, the young 28-year-old Despaigne is 0-2 in two starts with a 5.84 ERA against the Dodgers, so allow me some preordained ageisms and predict that this pitching matchup should work in our favor (even though the Dodgers are just 10-15 on the road).

No Vinny? I thought he made the Cali trips. Also, I'm confused about what Orel is trying to communicate ^^^ can someone help out here?
i know and see nothing. i'm just glad i'm able to watch todays game and participate in a GT and drink tons of booze and curse as loud as i wants and run nekked down the streets with a fish and....
Just following Sax's anagramming ways, Karen
Hope Despaigne never pitches to Oyster Pubes
Woc Wockerson
@karen, I thought the same thing, RE Vin
Desponya has the sinker/forkball/whatever working tonight, gonna have to lay off that
stop trying to steal joc, just stop
Cawt Stealerson
beer check: sculpin longfin lager
I mean ballast point longfin lager
and lots of 'em
Dusty checking into dis bish. Yeah why no Vinny? Is SD that hard for him to access? Disappointed. Maybe that's training us for post-Vin years (hopefully in 2027).
Still not believing I can actually watch these...what do you call them....games on TV.
Is it getting Dusty in here?
Tha Kid gets Norris after a battle
That's gonna leave a mark
Spank Despaigne. i like the sound of that. it's regal.
Don't plunk Kemp, apparently he don't like dat shit
Clayton's gonna be pissing blood tonight
hehe I like it, spank
Nome, what is this about?
"Large helping of Twitter beef being served right now in our timeline." -SoSG twitter feed
Clay OK?
Too many pitches
Orel handling that call terribly re hit on Kershaw. You're not a doc, don't speculate. Most commentators know not to do so until more info.
@Spank
You should have come over to my crib so we could watch on the patio
Howie rawbed
Middlebrooks Robinson. that fucker.
Despanky has a crooked cranium
@DB can I come over too?
@Spanky...Those fans are not at all nice when you go into their house wearing the enemy gear.
Nice one, Spank, even though it's about the other team
sounds great,Dust. someday,holmes. someday.
i never wear my team colors. i represent vocally.
plus i lived in San Diego for several years. i hate the people and felt like a trader the whole time i was there.
Party at Spank's!
and now back to the game. shit. a commercial.
Spanky...It could have been the singing of 'We Are the Champions' between innings that pissed off the natives.
I forget, did the Padres trade for B.J. & Melvin together?
big difference in the Padres announcers attitudes between the earlier season series and now. i hear nothing now about how great the Padres bats are whereas before that was all they talked about.
i think the Uptons were traded seperately dude
next time i do a nekked run with a fish i'll be singing We Are The Champions
Puig looking a little gimpy going down the line
2 on for AGon
Thanks Spank
1-0 LA!
pretty horrible throw there AJ
yeah, not good, looked like a cutter
Good guys up 1-0!
Meanwhile, Giants being no-hit through 3 (AZ 1-0)
@spank, what's a SD crowd like, besides filled with Dodger fans? Will they get drunk and fight or just sit there and think about fish tacos and gaslamps?
Clayton hitting 96
nice work, Clayton, 56 pitches through 3. He needs a quick, clean inning or 3
Turner hits a long single
oof, Dre almost safe on the slow bouncer, looked like a tie
of course Donnie doesn't challenge that
Puig gimpy after his infield single, Turner gingerly walking around, Rollins terrible
wow. Ellis got a hold of that one.
Ellis has less suckitude than Rollins (who Kd)!
2-0
Upton plays a floating liner from AJ poorly, JT scores, 2-0 good guys
I'll take it
nice work, Howie
"Melvin Upton Jr. was a player to be named later... by himself."
FB..haha. that's pretty much how the Padres fans are. Really passive. at one game i attended though the Padres were blowing out the Dodgers. i think it was '92 or '93. anyways a Padres fan went rogue on his team and started heckling them because the Padres pitcher thought he was Koufax and pitched like it was the World Series in the bottom of the ninth. i can't remember the name of the dodgers hitter but the dude hit a homerun off this pitcher and the Padres fan went ballistic with the snark. "that's what you get for dicking around" is the last thing the dude said and he split. it was fucking hilarious. the only cool mofo in San Diego.
that'll work
haha that's awesome. He probably still denies that Ken Caminiti was juicing
how did Joc not beat that out?
Puig spikes Myers but is safe, both are limping
Idiots talking about Puig stealing. He better not be stealing with that hammy
That ump made the same exact bad strike call on JRoll.
I thought Upton was going to biff that one
There's like zero chance they'll move Seager to another position and extend Howie, right?
Nice bunt by Spankdaspawnye but also a nice play by Clayton
Orel...Is Howie on a 1 year contract??
good question, Orel
Where has Olivera been playing in the minors? I keep reading that he's a better second baseman than 3B. I also read that Seager is probably *fine* at short. But this front office wants more than *fine* I assume. Rookie shortstops are scary. Justin Turner at short is scary too. So I dunno
I think my preference would be Olivera, Seager, Howie (if Olivera is actually decent). If they don't resign Howie, maybe something like Seager, unnamed SS, Olivera?
@karen he's got one year left on his current deal, Rollins too. Something magical would have to happen for Rollins to be resigned
Karen: Technically he's on the last year of a four-year, $33.5M contract. Obviously the first three years were with the Angels
Seager is 6'4". No idea where else he can play
Well, I'm all screwed up cause I thought JRoll was on a one year to make room for Seager.
Rollins is also on a one-year, thank goodness. I guess Olivera is supposed to replace him?
I had to look to see if maybe Rollins was better vs lefties or righties but he is equally terrible against both
I am still on JRoll's side, I haven't given up on him, but man it's been a rough season so far
I wonder if I'll ever be able to relax again when Matty comes to the plate. The haunting is coming, I'm telling y'all.
I think Olivera for 2B or 3B, Seager at SS, maybe for a few years before they move him to 3B where a 6-4 dude with average range should be playing
Damn. Kershaw owned Kemp right there.
Solarte got a hold of that one
@karen I feel it too. I don't worry so much about these situations, but there will be a night when he's hitting against Yimi or League in a tight game and he'll kill us, maybe more than once
JT with the glove.
(cries a river)
nice play by Turner, crazy slide by Middlebrooks
Interesting night at Chase Field....
NEVERMIND
hehe
nice work, OREL!!
7th inning rally coming... I can feel it in my bones
Don't say it, Orel!!! Jinx rule applies..
kind of interesting PIT-PHI game: no score through 10 but 19 combined hits
AJ with another hit? holy shit it's a Christmas miracle in June.
good bunt, Clayton
RA for AGon
RANCHO RANCHO
I didn't say no-hitter!
gift strike there
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
AG is PISSED
and so am I
That's the 3rd time that ump has called that outside strike tonight.
crapola
shit
that homerun pitch was served up with a baked potato and steamed broccoli. whatever that means.
@Orel, can you give one of the SOSG interns an assignment? I feel like whenever we say Rancho Ardiendo (or some Ranchoish synonym), it usually ends poorly for us, worse than what league averages would have you expect. Can you have somebody look through the site history and come up with some numbers to prove or disprove that?
It may be my favorite term in the SOSG glossary but I feel like it's bad luck
117 pitches for Clayton. It was a battle but he battled well
Keep it in the expansive park, Yimi
Yimi will be fine this inning but will give up a homer when he comes back out next inning
Well we knew that was coming. Shit Yimi!
stoopid. goddamnjesusmaryand joseph. what the fuck
Yep.
what a bunch of clowns, like a couple of monkeys fucking a football
What the hell
Poor Clay. He pitched his butt off.
son of a bitch
2 pitches, losing
FUCKING IDIOT STUPID MOTHERFUCKER. SHIT
@FB: I'll get HR right on that.
shut the fuck up Nomar
"You could see this playing out"
that popup was AJ's fault, he should have gone to get it or yelled at Yimi to get the fuck out of the way
thank you, Matty
i just don't understand why come you take out Kershaw with two out in the inning.
HOWIE MAY BE OUR REDEMPTION TONIGHT!!
tough error, indeed
Tied up at 3.
JT redeemed.
We are MKWs for this inning!
attaboy, JT
I tuned in just in time to see AGon get gone and Yimi blow it. Now tied. Let's get these mofos!
FUCK YOU DRE. FUCK YOU
Orel...okay!!!!
Spanky lighting the fire under Dre! Good job, Spank!!
TOOTBLAN for Turner.
what
the
fuck
looks like i picked the right time to start drinking heavily
that was pathetic
sliding wouldnt have done shit
it would have been nice for turner to tag up and be at third after that fly ball
but noooooooo
Aladdin Bail Bonds
Stay klassy, San Diego
Ellis works a walk despite another bad called strike.
this ump
nice makeup call
Turner taketh. Giveth. Taketh.
Everth?
oh god, Hatcher alert
looked outside
Eithier's run counts!
we got the run but..anyways. whatever. i need a drink.
Dre scores, AJ slow
We forgot about Guerrero in our earlier conversation
@spank pour one for me. you got any of that turpentine punch left?
AJ should never go first to third.
i got your turpentine back FB.
That just may be the hardest that I've ever seen Dre run
I mean we're MKWs for only half an inning
here's that Kemp moment y'all were talking about earlier.
Kemp'd.
whew
WHEW
Maybe we're MKW's this half inning, too.....
i was too occupied watching AJ's slow burn to catch DRe hustling.
Vagiants lose
man, ump, you need to go to your hotel room tonight and drink yourself to sleep
Hatcher with an OK outing for him. He looked good and was a squeezed pitch away from a great inning
The Liberator
Let's do this Libby!
grow a beard Donnie. your chin looks like shit
oof somebody remove the pills from that ump's toiletries case
one more inning then i can have a heart attack and another beer.
ugh, FB shouldn't be up this late
Hey FB....You guys are in the city, right? Not upstate where the bad guys are?
Bottom of the 9th...Hold yer breath
here we go...
one out. Vegetable Lasagna up.
Lot of comments for a Friday night game. Don't you guys have bar fights to attend?
One more!
Strikeout, not bar fight
Sit down will-do
Mark Saxon @markasaxon
Kenley Jansen is throwing 91-92 mph this inning, quite a bit down from his norm. Still working though.
I'm taking sidecar in San Fran for first time
So if I disappear submit this to the cops
*throws beer bottle at Delino*
Ump squeezes Kenley on that one
wow, this ump is drunker than Dusty after 3 Cadillacs
Kenley gets the job done but he never seems to go 1-2-3
so not that drunk, but can't see that well
Hey, 200+ comments!
This ump needs to be sent back down to the minors.
padres fuck off
WOOP!
there we go
gnite all!
KJ gets it done! Party!
Yimi with the win?
perfect timing>
apple II version 100 all fucked up
There just is something wrong with Yimi getting the win and Clay getting yimmied
Good job, everybody!
Late answer to Dusty's question: The Twitter beef was a semi-heated discussion (mostly going in circles) between Molly Knight and Howard Cole about Mattingly's ability to manage clubhouse issues.
