Game 124 Thread: August 25 @ Reds, 4p

Wood Lamb.

Alex Wood (8-8. 3.79) vs. John Lamb (0-1, 6.35).

Cincy had a rookie Lamb,
And we've lost five in a row.
And everywhere on this road trip,
Our bullpen sure did blow.

These two guys met two two weeks ago, and it was good for the Dodgers (who won 5-3).

Can Ron Roenicke keep his franchise-destroying streak alive after five? I don't think I have the stomach to watch.

Took the off day to rest my butthole, now I'm good to go.

I'm getting in on the Ron Roenicke conspiracy train:

June 3, 1975: Drafted by the San Francisco Giants in the 29th round of the 1975 amateur draft, but did not sign.
...
May 3, 1985: Signed as a Free Agent with the San Francisco Giants.
April 1, 1986: Released by the San Francisco Giants.
...
August 17, 2015: Hired by the Los Angeles Dodgers

Sleeper agent?


Sleeper agent!

Grandal has a sore butthole, er, shoulder.

Steve Sax said...

First inning: six Dodgers come to the plate; one run scores.

Bottom two, lead off double for the Reds.

(cries)

I know I can't have Matty back (sobs) but am I the only one here who misses the Bubble Machine????

Jason said...

González takes one off the elbow. Until proven otherwise, Roenicke is responsible.

Jason said...

@karen: yes! Bubbles were the best, especially after the league made them get rid of it then had to backtrack

karen said...

Okay...So Utley takes out ads in 2 Philly newspapers thanking the fans that hate Santa Claus for 12 years of a dream come true. Now, if memory serves, didn't The Flyin' Hawaiian do something very similar...kissing Philly fan ass? And, well, we all know how that turned out. An omen??? Just sayin'.

Jason said...

Huh, long ball is back. Nothing Roenicke can do about that.

karen said...

Only a 5 run lead for the Arson Squad...this can't be good.

Jason said...

Hatcher lets one in. Another hatchet job (bah dum dum)

*sighs*
