Game 130 Thread: Aug. 31 vs. Giants, 7p

Brett Anderson (8-8, 3.36) vs. Jake Peavy (4-6, 4.21).

The Dodgers go for their third no-hitter in their last 10 games against Peavy tonight — it won't be easy, given that Peavy sometimes leaves eminently hittable balls up in the zone, but I'm confident the bats will find a way to miss. Meanwhile, it won't matter if Anderson throws his own no-hitter, because he won't get any offensive support. SAD TROMBONE

Pride of Dong said...

Dusty Baker's Toothpick said...

Hate boiling over...

karen said...

Here we go..........

Steve Sax said...

Two-out double by Crawford, but Oyster Pubes flies to Crawford to end the threat.

0-0 through 0.5.

Steve Sax said...

leadoff double by Rollins!

Steve Sax said...

wait, take that back...Rollins was "sacrificed" to second base?! WOW

Steve Sax said...

dammit, A-Gon hits it reasonably hard, but right to left for a fly out. Two out.

We're gonna strand Rollins.

Steve Sax said...

peavy is pitching around turner

karen said...

JTTTTTTTTTTTTT

Steve Sax said...

Turner! He gets jacked on the called strike two (I actually agreed, it was a strike; but he was walking to first anyway), and then fouls one off, and then strokes a double to left-center to EASILY score Rollins!

1-0

spank said...

BOOOOOOOO

Steve Sax said...

orange-fedora-wearing joker behind the plate: you are lame.

Steve Sax said...

Dre already down 0-2

Steve Sax said...

valiant AB, but Dre flies to center for out #3.

1-0 through 1

Steve Sax said...

DODGERS WILL NOT BE NO-HIT TONIGHT

karen said...

NO SAD TROMBONE

1-0 Boys....

Steve Sax said...

joc pederson, .083 avg last 24 games. Yikes.

Steve Sax said...

Joc flies out to second base. really pathetic, Joc.

1-0 LA through two

Steve Sax said...

Peavy at 34 pitches. Anderson at 26 through two.

Steve Sax said...

Blanco frickin slides into first and is called safe. ridiculous.

Giant on first with none out

spank said...

bean this mutt

spank said...

holy hell these gnat announcers are the worst homers. i'm ready to hang myself

Steve Sax said...

find the damn strike zone, Brett

Steve Sax said...

game is tied. we're doomed

karen said...

FREAKING ANDERSON

spank said...

still one out and the bases juiced. the word "fucked" comes to mind.

karen said...

Pubes looked really bad on that

spank said...

aint that a bitch

karen said...

Another Cody Fucking Ross.

Steve Sax said...

Wait, is this game nationally televised? Because we're sucking again.

spank said...

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Dusty Baker said...

So two runs come in on the infield hit? Of course they do.

Steve Sax said...

Dodgers come back to the dugout looking beaten.

spank said...

MLB Network,Saxy

karen said...

I'm telling you guys, Chutley brought a curse with him.

Dusty Baker said...

If the Mendoza line is .200, what is the .100 line? Pederson?

Dusty Baker said...

^45

karen said...

Spanky...We may need to break out the rally thong...

karen said...

Pence has got the Marty Feldman eyes thing going on...

Hideo Nomo said...

I'M SORRY I'M CHANNELING MY ANGER IN THE WRONG DIRECTION.

spank said...

Karen i've been wearing it all year. hasnt worked for shit. i should wash it.

karen said...

Spanky...and I thought leaving last years crust on it was a good idea....

spank said...

yeah that's right. sit down Plinko

spank said...

nope,Karen. crust was a bad idea for both the Dodgers and my unmentionables.

Dusty Baker said...

Vinny is spinning yarns tonight so I'm only at like a hatehateHate level so far.

Jason said...

This could be going better...

spank said...

worst offense of all time.

karen said...

Pubes got his bell rung.....finally something to cheer about.

karen said...

C'mon Joc. Do something here...

spank said...

coome on JoK. do something you mutt

karen said...

Pederson getting the Bronx cheer at DS.

spank said...

jesus christ. muttingly and mcgwire have JoK all screwed up.

Jason said...

Man, remember when Bundy coached 3rd and the team knew the axiom: you throw the ball, you hit the ball, you catch the ball. Those were good days. Those were days free of this plague know as Roenicke.

karen said...

For shits sake wtf Blue??

karen said...

I still think Sandy is our best bet as our #3 pitcher and as our entire bullpen.

karen said...

My enthusiasm is waning....

spank said...

we may get out of this inning unscathed.

spank said...

SCORE SOME RUNS GODDAMNIT

spank said...

SCORE SOME RUNS GODDAMNIT

spank said...

rollins gets a hit. amazing

spank said...

GET A HIT

karen said...

AGONE!!!!!! WE ARE TIED!!!!

spank said...

A FUCKING GONE!!!

Jason said...

Roenicke still can't stop the long ball.


I'm sure he's working on it, though.

Steve Sax said...

holy shit, we've got life. 3-3 with a two-run A-Gon HR

Steve Sax said...

@Jason, I think I saw a hand from behind the wall try to swat the A-Gon HR ball back onto the field. I assume that was Roenicke's hand.

spank said...

WHY DOES ETHIER HAVE TO BAT?

spank said...

I BET ROENICKE WISHES HE WAS KAREEM

spank said...

YOU'RE WELCOME

Jason said...

Dre bomb? Dre bomb!

Jason said...

The water Roenicke soaks the bats in before each game has finally dried out

karen said...

Future HOFer Avila in...Lets all hold our collective breath...

spank said...

OH SNAP. THAT WAS QUICK

karen said...


...and breathe...

spank said...

DRE IS ON MY FOREVER SHIT LIST.

spank said...

JOK HITS A SINGLE.THATS CRAY.

Jason said...

@spank: I can't leave 'Dre on my forever shit list because he got noted wife beater Milton Bradley out of town

spank said...

HUNTER VS. AUSTIN. IT DONT GET ANY WHITER THAN THIS. JUST SAYING.

karen said...

lmao^^^^

Jason said...

All we needed was a Colt and a Sebastian playing the parts of catcher and home umpire to complete the most white at-bat ever.

spank said...

TRUE THAT,JASON. I'M JUST SICK OF DRE AND HIS SHITTY ATTITUDE.

Jason said...

Middle of the lineup, I run Kenley out here.

Dusty Baker said...

^That white space is less white than Hunter vs. Austin.

karen said...

Peralta coming off DL tomorrow??

shit.

karen said...

100^^^

Dusty Baker said...

Speaking of white, White Loney is up.

spank said...

HIDE THE COMBUSTIBLES.

Dusty Baker said...

Throw at Pubes!

Dusty Baker said...

Dre denies Pubes. Two outs now. Great work, Dre.

Wow this feels like a playoff game.

Dusty Baker said...

LOL Spanky.

spank said...

FUCKING HELL

Dusty Baker said...

Why isn't Kenley in there for the third out?

karen said...

Byrd. I fucking knew it.

FUCK!

karen said...

Dusty....cause Muttingly is making the calls^^^

karen said...

This bullpen would screw up a free lunch. I fucking swear I AM SO SICK OF THIS SHIT

spank said...

THAT'S TWICE WITH THE BYRD TODAY,KAREN

karen said...

Somewhere in heaven my mom is saying to my dad "They don't deserve to win".

spank said...

THAT STRIKEOUT TO END THE INNING JUST PISSES ME OFF MORE.

Dusty Baker said...

@Karen

I was actually just thinking...well, we're going to go ahead and lose this one somehow but we didn't really deserve to win it anyway.

Jason said...

Nicasio forgot to take his anti-Roenicke pills today

karen said...

I know Spank. How did we see that and no one else did? Freaking Gugga Bros should be paying us the big bucks.

Dusty Baker said...

J.P. Hoornstra @jphoornstra
Chase Utley has faced the new Giants' pitcher, Javier Lopez, 23 times in his career. He's still looking for his first hit.

karen said...

Dusty...My mama is channeling through you!!

spank said...

I PUT THE RALLY THONG ON BACKWARD BETWEEN INNINGS. MAYBE THAT WILL HELP THE MOJO.

spank said...

FUCK YEAH

Jason said...

"You hired who? Roenicke? Fuck this, I'll give you a year." - Vin

karen said...

I heart Aoki!!

Dusty Baker said...

I'm "channeling" Neeebs' mom.

spank said...

CHUTLEY AT THIRD WITH ONE OUT. BEST BRING HIM IN OR ELSE

karen said...

Poor Neeeb's mom. She never gets a night off....

spank said...

AND HERE COMES ROMO. FUCK I HATE THE GNATS

karen said...

Do you guys remember a few seasons ago someone said something about hating Romo and MB thought he was talking about Tony Romo and jumped all over him??? I miss our girl!!

Dusty Baker said...

Up to a hateHateHate now that jackass Romo is in. He is NOT the boy from Brawley!.

cc: Spanky

Dusty Baker said...

@Karen

Yeah that was a hilarious exchange.

ps- Fuck Tony Romo, too!

spank said...

NEEEBS MOM "WORKS" MORE HOURS THAN A 7-ELEVEN

karen said...

The back of Romo's head looks like the front of his head.

Orel said...

SVS fail

spank said...

WEAK SAUCE

Orel said...

This would be a great spot for Crawdaddy to earn some regular playing time

Orel said...

WE SUCK

Jason said...

One thing I miss about Joe Torre, he didn't know any better and would use Kenley in an 8th inning tied game against the heart of the order because he had to "save" Broxton for the Save.

Damn it, Mattingly!

spank said...

FUCK OFF ROMO AND WASH YER BEARD

Steve Sax said...

Lead off double, and we choke.

Orel said...

1-2-3 for Kenley? Forgetaboutit

Orel said...

Hey, that's OUR bunting style!

karen said...

I wonder where we would be without Agon...

spank said...

MUTTINGLY BRINGS IN JANLEY WITH THE GAME TIED BUT DOESN'T BRING HIM IN WHEN WE HAVE THE LEAD. THAT'S THE DUDE I WANT MANAGING MY TEAM IN THE PLAYOFFS.

Dusty Baker said...

That whole stealing a base thing seems so foreign, doesn't it?

karen said...

My new little puppy is enduring her first Dodger/gnat game with me and every time I yell she jumps up and bites me.

Cliff Beefpile said...

Fuck Duffy. I don't even care that he's from Long Beach. Shaggy-looking dipshit.

Orel said...

(holds down fort)

spank said...

ROLLINS!

Orel said...

J-Roll D!

Jason said...

Remember, Roenicke has no effect on the long ball

Orel said...

"Brandon Belt is going steady with the right-field foul line." —Vin

Orel said...

win-now-ass-holes clap clap clapclapclap

Orel said...

#JocWheels

Jason said...

Fuck, Roenicke is in Joc's ear.

Dusty Baker said...

@Karen

Up jumps the devil puppy?

Cliff Beefpile said...

Joc with a nice bunt.

spank said...

WELL I GUESS HE HIT THE BALL

Orel said...

(still holding down fort)

Jason said...

Aim for Kettle One, A.J.

Cliff Beefpile said...

Fucking Saxon jinxed the bullpen by tweeting about their 13-inning scoreless streak.

spank said...

I WOULD HAVE BATTED GREINKE INSTEAD OF THIS MUTT

karen said...

I'M BACK!!!

karen said...

SAFE!!

Cliff Beefpile said...

Stolen bases! What wizardry is this!?

spank said...

STOLEN BASE? WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT.

Cliff Beefpile said...

Fuck you, Bochy, you overrated dickbag.

karen said...

SIDDOWN BRUCE

Orel said...

Bochy icing his own pitcher. Nice.

spank said...

DID ROENICKE ASK FOR A REVIEW OF THE STOLEN BASE?

Orel said...

(lets go of fort)

karen said...

YES!

karen said...

(thanks orel)

Steve Sax said...

was Pereza safe?

spank said...

SHOULD HAVE LET MARY HART BAT INSTEAD OF ELLIS.

Cliff Beefpile said...

Spank was right, shoulda gone with Greinke. Goddammit, Ellis.

Steve Sax said...

Peraza won't matter now that Rollins is up

Orel said...

Vin called strike one a ball

Steve Sax said...

my feed is jumpy

matter of fact, so am i

Cliff Beefpile said...

Rollins with a little gamesmanship of his own. Nice.

Steve Sax said...

we suck.

spank said...

PUT A CORK IN IT ROMO

Orel said...

We suck so bad.

Steve Sax said...

Ellis and Rollins both can't deliver in extras with a runner in scoring position. Weak sauce!

karen said...

Going into extras with our bullpen???

Dusty Baker said...

My Sportsnet LA feed is jumpy, too. I was just about to ask if other people's feeds were the same way.

karen said...

Mine is okay

Paul said...

Fuckin idiot Umpire. That was a balk. This game should be over.

Cliff Beefpile said...

Posey's getting fat.

spank said...

FILL 'ER UP

Orel said...

John Jimson gave up a hit. What a shock

Orel said...

Byrd HBP. Beginning of the end.

Jason said...

That's about what I expected

spank said...

MATCHES READY

Dusty Baker said...

Aaaand he hits the batter. Two on, all pissed off.

Paul said...

Jim Johnson is awful. My god don't do this to us.

Cliff Beefpile said...

Fucking idiot Johnson. Up 0-2 and hit him.

Steve Sax said...

hitting byrd with a pitch is honestly the best outcome possible, considering

Dusty Baker said...

I see Jimson wears my least favorite number. Uh-huh.

Paul said...

Is Crawford's hair seaweed?

Orel said...

1-2 to Belt. Wonder how he'll fuck this up.

Orel said...

I mean Crawford

Dusty Baker said...

Men on second and third. Two outs with Juan Perez up. Whoever that is, he'll kill us probably.

Steve Sax said...

this team does not deserve 205 comments

Orel said...

Pedro Moura ‏@pedromoura 8s

Angels lose, go 10-19 in August, fall under .500. Their playoff odds will sink below 10%. Had been 11.6%. http://www.baseballprospectus.com/odds/

Paul said...

Juan Perez. Yeah that would be a new kind of pain

karen said...

Out of it.

Steve Sax said...

Juan Perez may as well be Eugenio Velez, we're still gonna lose

spank said...

I MUST BE DREAMING. NO RUNS ALLOWED.

Dusty Baker said...

Nice news for a change, Orel!

Orel said...

Johnson wriggles off. Credit where credit is due
