Momentous night at the Stadium tonight: Clayton Kershaw has another bobblehead giveaway; Don Mattingly returns to Dodger Stadium in day-glo colors; and the Dodgers return from the roadtrip first in the NL West by 2.5 games. What a perfect night to have Ross Stripling take the mound, where we can watch the #5 and see if he pitches like a Ross or like a tosser (literally).
My aunt has been all over me about Dee Gordon, whom I was fine to let go from the Dodgers two years ago, only to have both of us watch him flourish in Miami last year. So Gordon is back to Dodger Stadium tonight as well, to make sure my aunt is vindicated this four-game series.

I'm with Auntie Sax...I hated to lose Dee. I loved his game and thought he was a grounded, decent young man. I wish him nothing but the best except of course when the Boys aren't effected.
Who is that non-Gonzalez on first base?!?!
Avilan optioned, Coleman reinstated
I'm staring at that lineup, and I don't get it.
7 news just had a story about Rick Monday and the flag-saving play. Monday will be honored today on the anniversary of that play by throwing out the first pitch tonight. Also cool is that Monday, who kept the flag, will bring the flag back to Dodger Stadium for the first time tonight. If that's true, that is pretty cool!
ice cold beers - check
steak a cooking - check
cigar on deck - check
Fuck Muttingly - check
damn. should have got me some cheetoh puffs
Dee Gordon's up. Boooooooooooooooo
that out light on the broadcast score display aint fucking around. it said 2 outs before the marlins outfielder caught Hendricks flyball. controller must be on crack cocaine.
I don't think I'll ever get tired of seeing that throw Puig made to 3rd in Colorado.
Vinny talking about 'the late Gary Carter'. I was lucky enough to have known him and it still shocks me every time I think about him being gone. He was a great guy with a bit of a wicked sense of humor and he is so very missed.
Favorite Gary story...Back when he was playing for the Expos he left tickets for a bunch of us. I was pretty young, probably about 16 and still looked at pro baseball players as gods. After the game we waited for him for a quick visit before he had to catch the team bus. As we are pulling out of the parking lot the Expo bus pulls along side of us and when we look over at it there was a bare Expo butt sticking out of just about every window. That surly cured me of my god complex pretty darn quick!! But it makes me smile every time I think of it...
good one karen. i like it when ballplayers keep it real
I wonder how many of Mutt's former players had kind greetings for him tonight. My guess would be not many.
yo karen! long time no see. 'sup?!
goddamn game stream is freezing. its like J Geils all up in dis bish.

You are just too freaking funny Spanky!!
Giancarlo goes yard. Kinda saw that one coming.
i'm sorry but i dont care how great you are wityh a glove or if you are a star player but if you're hitting .196 you do not belong in the major leagues. fuck that
Stripling is sucking ass now. i blame his extended debut outing. you know the no hitter game.
PUIG!!!!
PUIG'D!!!!!ALL TIED AT 1...
TRAYCE!! 2-1 GOOD GUYS...
Your aunt is all over me too, Sax.
i really like the thought of a Thompson Pederson Puig outfield. mofos need to sack up though
Grandal's mistake costs a run. tied
dont know how bad that mistake was cause my stream is choppier than raging rapids.
That Stanton guy is pretty good.
this game should start getting interesting soon because,you know, Muttingly and ..well..Roberts.
Fuck Rick Monday
Stripling still in. Surprising.
102 pitches. take him out now!
oh wait. its not his debut and not pitching a no hitter. leave him in!!
Thompson's a bit of an adventure, but damn would I love to see the Thompson/Van Slyke-Pederson-Puig outfield allowed to flourish. Partially because it would mean we've jettisoned Crawford and dipshit Ethier.
haha. Robert's. where the grammar police?
102 pitches in and Strip convinces Roberts he still has gas in the tank?? I hope this isn't a sign of things to come with Roberts and his pitching calls.
Ethier is done. you heard it here first. well shit you've always heard it here.
Meh, I can't blame him considering some of the bullpen options...and having to turn to them this early.
but his arm,Cliffy. gotta save it.
i say we bring in Blanton. he's due for some good things.
(cries)
so if Nancy Bea is no longer on the keys who the fuck is playing Mission Impossible on the organ?
goddamn Eliis. you shouldbe on third with two outs on that muffd pop fly.
Lipitor pitching.
Greinke has given up 6 ER through 6.2 innings tonight. Right call, Dodgers.
/Joe Blanton enters the game
D'oh!
Turner finally gets a little BABIP luck.
mustard off the hot dog shout out by Vin and he couldn't even remember who said that. i has a sad. Chick fucking Hearn!
come on Trayce get a double
George Costanza sitting in the front row
Pederson walk. Agone up. Dodegers down 3-2 one out 9th
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Dieter Ruehle is playing the organ now. He played some Prince between innings tonight. He also plays the organ for the Kings at Staples Center. Sucks that the B team couldn't get the win tonight.
PGT up
