Scott Kazmir (1-0, 0.00) vs. Johnny Cueto (1-0, 1.29).
The two NL West heavyweights go at it for a fourth and final time this series, with new #2s on the mound for each team. Kazmir signed with the Dodgers this offseason for $48M / 3 years. Cueto signed with the Giants this offseason for $130M / 6 years. Is Cueto worth twice the number of years, and roughly 3x the number of dollars? Let's see if today's start gives any indication on the relative worth of these disparate investments.
We know one guy who will come ready to play: Charlie Culberson. I'm still enjoying watching his highlights from Saturday's game, and he understood the importance of the rivalry in his post-game thoughts, especially given he started his major league career with San Francisco. Let's do it for Charlie and get a series split today, boys!

FUCK THE DODGERS!
Cuerto hits Chutley on 2nd pitch of the game...we'll take it....and Corey immediately singles...
JT brings in Chutley...1-0 Good

It's a challenge, right? Not an injury like gameday says?
No lead is safe.

Geez, things were happening faster than I can post!!!
Ten batters and 5-0? That's a pretty good first inning
5 Good - 2 Evil
Cashmere being Cashmere (??)
5-2 LA through 1.5
What's up Karen, how's your weekend
KKKKazmir
Oh yeah, and Culberson, yesterday's hero, is not in the lineup
Just got the Gamora cover progression reward
Whoops, wrong blog
OMG!!! I leave the house for 10 minutes and all freaking hell breaks loose. 5-5 now??
Saxy...all was well til this debacle!!!
I know Chutley is old but damn!! Oh yeah, on Corey RBI (I'm just lovin' this kid) 6-5 Good Guys...
Now how will Kazmir give it back? As I typed that, Pagan hit a homerun.
...and it's tied again. Diablo fucking Pagan goes deep.
I enjoyed Gamera vs. Barugon when I was a kid, and the MST3K episode as an adult.
The umps strike zone has been fuckin' weird all series long, for both teams.
I don't even care that Duffy went to CSULB. Fuck 'im. Hit him again!
8-6 evildoers
Kazmir sucks, and this bullpen is worse
9-6 Evil going to 7th.
The chickens have come home to roost for JP haven't they?
Down by three, two on, two out, top 7, laboring opposing starter...
...yeah, this seems like a good time to PH Micah Johnson.
CULBERSON WAS AVAILABLE, ROBERTS
Far be it for me to be an armchair quarterback....but Micah Johnson as the tying run at the plate??
Joe Blanton: because apparently a 3-run deficit with only 6 outs left isn't enough of a challenge.
How can you let Joe fucking Blanton wear 55? I guess its already been sullied by Skip Schumaker and Matt Guerrier
Blanton gets off cheaply enough...seeings how he's Joe Blanton.
Depressing.
*Muttley flies out weakly*
Yeah, I don't see Howie Kendrick replacing Utley as a huge problem, Nomar.
Painful.
yuck
well shit. that went well. next time i'll listen to Karen and comment. sorry kid. #superstitions
PGT up
