Game 86 Thread: July 8 vs. Phillies, 7p

Kershaw looking studly on Photo Day.

Clayton Kershaw (5-6, 3.08) vs. Adam Morgan (1-1, 2.13).

Really, Clayton Kershaw is above all this Final Vote and #MVPtoASG business. He's the reigning MVP and Cy Young winner and has earned the right not to be subject to fan voting shenanigans. Let Clayton get the W tonight and then #LetKershawSleep.

What's up with Puig batting all over the place

karen said...

Pops is on the pre-game show. He's talking about having the mumps during the 1974 ASG and also the importance of Donnie having a consistent lineup sometime before September. Muttingly is fielding his 70th different lineup tonight.

Orel said...

We bitch about predictable use of relievers but players like consistency

karen said...

Yeah, Nomar was saying how important it is to be used to the guys and their tendencies that are batting around you especially in the post season

QuadSevens said...

I'm at the game tonight in the fancy pants seats from work. You might see me on tv when a lefty is up.

karen said...

Q7...What are you wearing?

QuadSevens said...

Dodgers jersey shirt and a Dodgers hat with the LA in large print and off center.

QuadSevens said...

Not in our seats yet. Still eating all the free food I can.

karen said...

Hmmm...Vinny saying 'Old friend Carlos Ruiz behind the plate with quotes around friend'. What am I not remembering here?

karen said...

JT HBP on 0-2 pitch

karen said...

Q7...2nd row and your wife is also wearing a Dodgers jersey??

karen said...

RA for SVS...

QuadSevens said...

Yup that's us Karen.

karen said...

Great seats!

karen said...

The Boys squandering bases loaded with 1 out is going to come back to haunt them

karen said...

Beaut of a curve for the K

Steve Sax said...

Did AJ just get his first HR?!

QuadSevens said...

He did! And it was glorious!

karen said...

3 run blast for JRoll...5-0 Blue

karen said...

...and finally some run support for Clay...

QuadSevens said...

Anyone know who this guy in the suit in the front row is? I could tap him on the shoulder and ask but that seems rude.

karen said...

Q7...It looks like there are 3 suits sitting in front of you guys...can't tell if anyone is important tho....

QuadSevens said...

The guy in the black suit is at every game. Jon Soohoo just talked to him between innings too.

QuadSevens said...

Cheers guys!

QuadSevens said...

...and girls!

karen said...

10 Ks for Clay thru 7...5-0 Blue

karen said...

Kid K coming back out to pitch the 9th

QuadSevens said...

Let's finish this off Kershaw!

karen said...

Kid K very Clayton-like tonight. CG shutout, 13 Ks on 123 pitches. Boys win 5-0 and go up on frisco by 5. Good night kids!!

Orel said...

Cheers!

Q7 - are you talking about the guy who goes to cevery game wearing a suit and glasses? i forgot his name but he tried to buy the Dodgers from McCourt. well him and his buddies.

spank said...

btway


noice

QuadSevens said...

That's the guy Spanky. He had what looked like a World Series ring on his finger. Maybe he works for the Dodgers.

QuadSevens said...

@Spanky You were right on about that guy. Found out his name is Dennis Gilbert. He's was a minor leaguer and was an agent. He also tried to buy the Texas Rangers.

Orel said...

I think he threw out a ceremonial first pitch the other day

spank said...

yes. Dennis Gilbert. i was trying to remember his name and was about to look for it online but i stopped here first. good job Q.

i wouldn't doubt that Orel. the dude is at every game and could be a Dodgers mascot like Mart Hart.
