Brett Anderson (5-4, 3.00) vs. Chad Billingsley (0-2, 7.71).
Old friend alert! And not just any old friend but Billingsley — Chadley, His Royal Thighness, Billz, member of the famed "Jacksonville Five" (along with Jonathan Broxton, Joel Guzman, Andy LaRoche and Russell Martin) — that guy, who gave us eight fine years with the Dodgers.
Now, as his old team is oh, about two starters short, Bills has the chance to make us regret letting him go in the first place (also Dan Haren, who the Marlins could trade, so we may face him soon enough).
Going against Chad is Anderson, who has been a real lifesaver. He's coming off consecutive wins over the Giants, Marlins and Snakes. Let's add Philly to that junk heap.

Puig has yet to find his groove. He'll probably lock in...right around the playoffs.
the Rollins batting 9th experiment seems to be over after one game. that's a shame. he did good yesterday....well maybe not good but he did better.
Did you hear? He's a second-half kinda guy
Well, every time he murdered us, it was in October, so...

Chad Billingsley starting for Phillies at Dodger Stadium today. Nervous about fan reception? "I’m interested to see what it’s going to be."
Cardinals had their rookies get them Starbucks at Wrigley just like Dodgers. watch them take credit for doing it first
They did it the right way
I hope the crowd is kind to Chadley tonight
If they showed Kemp some love, Chad'll be all right
Me and the Kemp love is a whole other conversation!! I was thinking like the love they showed Dee.
I can't remember. Did Dee get the love?
i'm sure they will. Chadley was a cool dude.
Dee got a great ovation. He was interviewed before the game and was hoping the fans would be happy to see him.
Dee got the love!

Revere gets on his horse and steals 2nd
Ruf walks
Frenchy's batting 5th? Wow
RA for the bad guys
So this is a nightmare 1st
Crap.
Are we playing the Giants?
God help us when we play a team that is actually good

Billingsley welcomed by PA announcer as he takes the mound. Fans applauded. "Thanks, Chad," flashed on the video scoreboards.
Chad hit Howie?
JT didn't look out on that
I don't think there was any intent on that HBP
Telecast flashed the THANKS CHAD as he came up to bat.
JT going through it so far tonight
Vinny was talking about Billz being from Defiance, Ohio...Wasn't Darren Driefort from there?
we are playing like a couple of monkeys fucking a football
Shit. Frenchy doubles in 2. 3-0 Bad People
FB...I was looking for just the right way to describe this game. You beat me to it...
Jeff Francour strikes out more than Joc Pederson blindfolded yet he hits a 2R double
Even the Phillies can get a guy home from third with less than 2 outs
The hole is getting deeper. 4-0 Philadelphia
I need to stop watching these games. We play better when I am sleeping
UJTD
ahh fuck. was about to stream the game. fuck this. man, and i went through all kinds of shit and updates to set up the apple II. takes fucking forever
like bad christmas presents with receipts taped to them, the gifts are quickly returned
@spank you should save yourself the time and just kick yourself in the nuts. It'll produce the same results as watching this game but you'll have the evening back for better things, like plotting Dre's kidnapping
10 fucking road wins
Hard shot by Yaz off Bills' ankle
for realz,FB. that's what i'll do from now on
Wow, that was really close
of course we lose the challenge
Anderson donezo
Is this what our team is? Or are we better than this?
I used to think we were underperforming but I dunno anymore
the offense should be way better than this. the pitching is currently over performing.
I'm with you. I used to think we were just off to a slow start but we're halfway through so I guess I need to come up with a new excuse
good night
thst's a wrap.
Me too guys. I'm done.
So, what'd I miss?
Anderson had 4 quality starts in a row before this one. I liked seeing him slam his bat and helmet when he got pulled for a PH while losing 4-0. I hope he has that same fire in his next start and gets back on track.
Need to win tonight, since we'll be tempting fate with four Sons at the game on Thursday.
Kershaw pitches tonight
le sigh
