Game 131 Thread: Sep. 1 vs. Giants, 7p


TONIGHT! The irritable force meets the indecipherable object!

Zack Greinke (14-3, 1.61) vs. Ashley Madison (16-6, 2.97)

If it's possible to die from prolonged exposure to INTENSE GLARES, then we're all dead tonight. (sad trombone)

But wait! The sad trombone was silenced last night, though most of you were probably asleep when it happened. Last night's win put the Dodgers up 4.5 games in the NL West. Even if Debbie Downer Sax's worst fears come true and the Dodgers lose this series, they'll still walk away with a 2.5 game lead. Plus, it's September 1st! The reinforcements are arriving! (mildly upbeat piccolo)

Of course, there's still the whole Roenicke thing...

karen said...

spank said...

spank said...

Sponge Boy made too many pitches there...

spank said...

Steve Sax said...

0-0 through 1

Steve Sax said...

SoSG AC is in the house

spank said...

instead of dancing like a nerd that little kid needs to slap the nachos out of that Gnats fans hands.

karen said...

Chutley looks disturbingly like Jim Tracy hanging over the rail in the Dodgers dugout.

spank said...

almost Dodgers owner Dennis Gilbert big pimpin' with them blondes trying to get his mack on. get it,holmes!

spank said...

that was a gold glove play by your second baseman

Steve Sax said...

Vin is saying how Peraza had no reason to be involved in that dropped ball play.

Glad we got out of it.

spank said...

jesus christ Peraza is a flaky fielder.

spank said...

@ Karen-i thought Chutley was Jim Tracy for a second. it was a WTF? moment.

spank said...

Ron Jeremy taking in the game

karen said...

Spank...Same here!

Dusty Baker said...

Dusty checking in. On the sofa now, Vinny! Sorry I'm late.

karen said...

I love that AJellis walk up music is from the '70s

spank said...

haha. Dennis Gilbert got cock blocked.

Steve Sax said...

Byrd can't make a catch? I can't believe it

Steve Sax said...

Bumgarner tries to throw a two-strike breaking ball to Greinke, and Greinke's hit was just foul. Darn it

Steve Sax said...

Almost a WP there... 2-2 count to Zack with runners at the corners

spank said...

FUCK

Steve Sax said...

Dammit, Greinke was so close to a two-run double!

0-0 through 2

Orel said...

Are we losing yet?

Dusty Baker said...

We're not winning. So we're losing.

Steve Sax said...

very late start there for SVS, but he gets to the fly out. one away in the third

karen said...

HIT HIM ZACK!

Steve Sax said...

Rollins, yet another K

spank said...

goddamn Rollins. you suck.

spank said...

booze is going down faster with every out

Orel said...

beer status: Pilsner Urkel

spank said...

two out hit for the gold glover.

Orel said...

Peraza bloop single. No-hitter averted!

spank said...

safe mofos!

Steve Sax said...

Roenicke sends Peraza...and he scores! Bet Roenicke didn't expect that outcome!

Steve Sax said...

SVS K looked horrible

karen said...

In the replay you can see where Roenicke tries to trip him...

Steve Sax said...

1-0 LA through 3

QuadSevens said...

The run quieted the gnat fans behind me and the Mrs in the stadium. It was sweet!

Orel said...

Siddown, obnoxious fans behind Mr. & Mrs. 7777!

Steve Sax said...

1-0 through 3.5

spank said...

uneventful top of the third. that'll work for me.

spank said...

4th

Orel said...

This game could very well end 1-0.

Dusty Baker's Toothpick said...

OKC Dodgers knotted up at 4 in the bottom of the 19th

Orel said...

And aren't they playing doubleheader?

Orel said...

Hack, Zack!

Orel said...

^a doubleheader

spank said...

someone needs to break oyster pubes leg again. just a thought.

Alex Cora said...

Giants fans in area getting appropriately heckled.

QuadSevens said...

FYI...Kershaw draws a pretty sad looking palm tree.

Dusty Baker's Toothpick said...

^ game two in OKC starting up soon me thinks.

spank said...

Bumgarner escapes on the Turner check swing (dammit)

spank said...

Spongey made Duffy look silly on that last pitch

karen said...

Paul said...

Steve Sax said...

spank said...

Orel said...

Zack issues a walk for the first time since...

QuadSevens said...

Gnat fan behind us said "Posey is good at sniffing out balls." I can't make this stuff up.

karen said...

Nicasio sighting

spank said...

Steve Sax said...

Byrd grounds to third, so 5-3 with runners at second and third.

Dylan Hernandez ‏@dylanohernandez 10s
Bochy was ejected.

Paul said...

Nevermind.

Orel said...

Ken Gurnick ‏@kengurnick 49s

Greinke taking his warmups.

karen said...

These rooks are going to give me a stroke

spank said...

Greinke can give less fucks. Fuck You Vin with your 7 inning bullshit.

Orel said...

Jesus, Ruggs, don't do that

Paul said...

Not a good start.

Orel said...

Blasphemy, Spank!

Steve Sax said...

2-1 Dodgers, two on and one out for SF in the eighth

Paul said...

5 more outs for the pen to nail this one down.....


*faints*

Steve Sax said...

@spank: hey man, you gotta channel your hate toward SF, not our guys

karen said...

I'm getting nervous...

spank said...

he proved me wrong,Orel. that's all

Paul said...

That was a scary first pitch.

spank said...

relax,Saxy.

Paul said...

Down 0-2. Don't lose this guy.

Paul said...

2-2. Big pitch here. I have no confidence he can get him out without a little luck.

spank said...

that was sick!

karen said...

OMG!!! UJTD!!!

Steve Sax said...

Peraza redemption with that glove backhand!

UP JUMPS THE DEVIL!!!

Steve Sax said...

Keep channeling the hate, Spank!

2-1 LA, mid-8

Orel said...

Opening a bottle of Maker's Mark. Who wants some?

Orel said...

Geico now!

Dusty Baker said...

(raises both arms)

Paul said...

Don't get that alcohol too close to the bullpen.

Orel said...

AGon double!

Dusty Baker said...

A-Gon double off the LF wall! He is fucking locked in.

spank said...

FUCK THE GNATS!

Orel said...

Laser beam sounds!

Neeebs (The Original) said...

So...what's happening folks? Me, I don't have TWC. I blame Frank.

Cliff Beefpile said...

Looks like I picked the wrong day to quit sniffin' glue.

Steve Sax said...

leadoff double for A-Gon off of non-Madison

Orel said...

I'm happy to report Spank is back on the Giants hate wagon

Paul said...

Richard Grieco!!?

Orel said...

NEEEEEEBS

Orel said...

mom

spank said...

i'm channeling my energies to my booze

Orel said...

Don't look now but Ethier's up

Steve Sax said...

CC sacrifices A-Gon over to third.

Hudson is yanked. Thanks, Tim!

Orel said...

The Giants are not afraid to use former starters as relievers

Steve Sax said...

I need to channel some energies to booze.

Right now, however, I can't do that.

Dusty Baker said...

How many POS scruffy white boys can one team have?

Paul said...

Strickland is an ass clown and not the good kind.

Steve Sax said...

Brutal stat displayed: Dodgers second-worst in scoring runner from third with fewer than two outs.

Steve Sax said...

Andre already in an 0-2 hole

Cliff Beefpile said...

@Dusty: Almost as many as the number of sweater-around-the-neck-wearing douchebag fans the gnats have.

spank said...

come on Roenicke. AGone would have scored on the fly. you're losing your touch.

Steve Sax said...

ROENICKE HOLDS A-GON

(of course, Ethier's fly ball was so shallow, that probably made sense).

BUT STILL

Dusty Baker said...

I think Dre was 0-2 when he stepped in.

Dusty Baker said...

"sweater-around-the-neck-wearing douchebag fans"

Nice phrase!

Orel said...

There are good assclowns?

Steve Sax said...

Ellis down 0-2...now 1-2

Orel said...

Guys, we can do it. We can make 200 comments.

Steve Sax said...

dammit ellis, you had that slider (foul)

Dusty Baker said...

Like this:

Paul said...

Welp.

Cliff Beefpile said...

Not sure if the syntax of my last comment is correct, but fuck it. I blame the beer and madison.

Orel said...

more depressing stats

Steve Sax said...

Ellis fans. Dodgers remain second-to-last in scoring runners from third.

spank said...

we need more hate and booze to reach 200 comments. i'm trying.

Steve Sax said...

LA: 1-for-8 with RISP tonight

Orel said...

hatehateHATE

Orel said...

Neeebs (The Original) said...

Steve Sax said...

Orel said...

"Exploring the Mediating Effect of Assclowns on Human Capital in Economic Well-being: A Micro-analysis of Four Countries"

Dusty Baker said...

2-0 to start off Posey. Come on Kenley!

Orel said...

Don't remind me Sax OH WAIT YOU JUST DID

Neeebs (The Original) said...

Cliff Beefpile said...

Dusty Baker said...
