Game 43 Thread: May 20 @ Padres, 7:30p

Scott Kazmir (3-3, 4.89) vs. Christian Friedrich (0-1, 1.50).

Kazmir is coming off his best start of the season, in which he went 8 2/3 innings against the Cardinals, who suck. Can he keep the momentum going at pitcher-friendly Petco Field against the Padres, who also suck? He's going to have to, since our bullpen sucks too. Here's to a sucktacular game!

Padres announcers already starting with their bullshit. wanted a double play on that Turner slide.

Great base running by Puig...all tied at 2.

Orel said...

spank said...

rally thong time!

spank said...

spank said...

Padres pulling the plug on the starting pitcher. thats a shame. he was doing good this inning.

karen said...

Nah it's not his pitching it's the rally thong!! You keep that baby on!

spank said...

dammit

spank said...

Night Moves up with the bases juiced.

spank said...

Orel said...

Bases loaded? Let me guess what happened next.

spank said...

PUIG!

karen said...

PUIG BABY!!! 4-2 Blue...

Orel said...

Puig!

spank said...

Greg Maddux chilling in the front row in all Dodgers gear. kind of weird.

karen said...

Maddux is one of my all time favorite pitchers.

spank said...

i was just gonna say that Cashmere has calmed down a bit when that mutt hits a homerun

karen said...

C'mere just cannot stand having a lead. Already trying to give it back.

karen said...

Geez. C'mutt.

karen said...

How does this guy keep a straight face when he collects his paycheck?

Steve Sax said...

SD: five runs on three hits?!

karen said...

@Sax...Kazmir.

'nuff said.

Orel said...

Jay Sherman: How do you sleep at night?

Rainer Wolfcastle: On top of a pile of money with many beautiful ladies.

spank said...

wha happened?

C'mutt is wha happened

karen said...

frisco loses.

spank said...

Crawford single. its a miracle

spank said...

FUCK YEAH TURNER!!!

karen said...

Mr. Justin Turner everyone!! 6-5 Dodgers.

spank said...

do i dare watch the 8th inning?

Steve Sax said...

holy shit, we're in the lead

spank said...

i almost let out a scream there. fucking Baez

karen said...

Now if we can just survive Baez and get to Kenley we have a shot...

spank said...

haha. a stadium full of Charley Steiners on Kemps flyball

karen said...

My heart is going pitter patter. Not sure if it's cause Matty was hitting or Baez was pitching.

spank said...

east LA represented right there

karen said...

HERE COMES KENLEY!

spank said...

nice move bringing Jansen in to finish off the 8th. bout time,Roberts.

karen said...

Quackenbush looks like he came straight to Petco from the Duck Dynasty set.

spank said...

haha. he is Duck Dynasty.

spank said...

someone needs to feed the Padres shortstop Ramirez a fucking sandwich or a steak or something. he's got the Dee Gordon look. with or without steroids

spank said...

here we go. bottom of the ninth

karen said...

Strap on yer pardy hats...were going to the ninth.

karen said...

AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

spank said...

i got the sound on mute just in case.

spank said...

that fastball blew by BJ in a hurry

karen said...

BJ FUCKING UPTON

karen said...

DAMN DAMN DAMN.

Steve Sax said...

Unbelievable.

spank said...

see you tomorrow for more disappointment

Fred's Brim said...

I was just starting to get encouraged a little, not that this was a good team necessarily, but that we were steadily working through this awful month in our schedule. I was hoping for .500 for the month but you gotta make hay against the bums like SD and Cin when you know you have to go play NY and the Cubs at the end of the month

karen said...

Yeah, this one hurt. I had a little trouble sleeping last night.

spank said...

no GT again? wake up y'all!!

karen said...

Our Sons are MIA this weekend...

karen said...

We lost again last night with a walk off WALK! Thanks Tsao, so glad you're maintaining our pens stellar reputation.

karen said...

Home ump took a foul right to the nads and is still laying in the dirt. Dude getting lots of sympathy from all the menfolk...Steiner 'There are not enough deep breaths to take'. Dude is seriously suffering. Now he's coming out of the game.

karen said...

Okay, play resuming after 15 minutes and i SWEAR that when the 2nd base ump took up behind home for the injured ump he crossed himself. Honest, no kidding.

karen said...

1-0 madres B5.

karen said...

4-0 mads still B5.

karen said...

Good News...Boys fight back to score 3 to bring it to 4-3 in T6.

Bad News...Joan Baez coming in to pitch B6.

karen said...

JT pinch hits and unnnLOADS and ties this mofo up at 4 in T7.

karen said...

Now that the Boys have tied it, Dave makes one of his brilliant moves and brings in Teri Hatcher to pitch B7. I am holding my breath...

karen said...

...and he walks the first batter...

karen said...

Somehow Hatcher gets out of 7th. Still tied 4-4.

AND just as I wrote that Howie hits his first homer of the year and we LEAD 5-4 T8.

karen said...

Coleman Ks my future baby daddy so it's 2 out tying run on second and Kenley coming in to face...wait for it...Blow Job Upton.

karen said...

*in B8.

karen said...

SHITFUCK Blow Job triples in tying run. Go ahead at third with 2 out.

Kenley gets Meyers to pop up but we are freaking tied going to 9.

spank said...

stoopid Puig should have been on third base on that sacrifice. fucking idiot.

spank said...

100

karen said...

Kenley retires bad guys in order...We're going to extras....

...and I'm sure Kenley is done for the day so it's our bullpen the rest of the way.

karen said...

Oh please stay here with me Spanky...I don't think I can do it alone.

spank said...

bring in T'sao

karen said...

Spank...yeah, Yasiel flashed back to one of his brain farts.

spank said...

oh no!! Joe Blanton. game over

karen said...

I know Spanky...kemp'd!! But now I'm okay with it when it's against us. Jenn says we're the Jedi and the madres are the Sith. (She told me you'd know what that meant.)

spank said...

haha. yes i do know,Karen.

spank said...

horrible offense

karen said...

Geez. A 4 pitch walk to open the 11th...and Blow Job Jr. is up.

karen said...

I needs me some crack.

karen said...

These IW always come back and bite you in the ass.

spank said...

on 5o the 12th. i needs some crack too.

spank said...

feeble

spank said...

the game that wont end. to the 13th

karen said...

(Original) Orel is saying something about being in a 24 inning game or something like that. I don't know, I'm so fucked up I may have hallucinated it.

Onto the 15th and I think The Stripper may be coming in for the bottom half.

karen said...

CLAYTON COMING IN TO WIN THIS MUTHER...WITH HIS BAT.......

The SAN DIEGO crowd is chanting MVP for Kershaw.

FC. Clay at first and Howie at third with 1 out.

karen said...

CHUTLEY RULE ON JON JAY. GET THAT BASTARD!

Steve Sax said...

Matt Kemp, 0-for-7 today

karen said...

Left hand looked above the knee to me.

karen said...

Welp, guess I saw that with my heart. New York calls it good.

karen said...

SAXY MY MAN!!! He's also Kd 3 times and I think also hit into a DP. Seems like all his ABs were with men on base. Dude still makes me nervous though.

karen said...

Alex Wood has the rally look going on.

karen said...

17 here we come...

spank said...

i remember a 24 inning game against the Astros back in late 80's. 89? Jeff Hamilton pitched and lost the game.

karen said...

Spank...That may be the one Orel's talking about. He said he pitched innings 14-20 in that one. Now that you mention Jeff Hamilton it's starting to sound familiar. I think it might have been one that was televised.

karen said...

Kendrick is hitting out of his mind today.

spank said...

finally runs

karen said...

YASIEL!!!!! 7-5 BLUE!

btw...just loving Kike in the catcher's gear!

spank said...

Roberts gonna find a way to pitch Baez in the bottom of the inning

karen said...

EIGHT to FIVE!

spank said...

fucking hustle!

spank said...

a geyser of runs 9-5

karen said...

NINE to FIVE!

karen said...

Spanky 7:16...the truly sad thing about that is I think if he could he would trot Baez out there.

Steve Sax said...

Puig is the catalyst. love it

Steve Sax said...

@karen 7:15p: what is the deal with Kike in catcher's gear? tell me please, as I am not watching the game (from prison)

Steve Sax said...

leadoff single for the stripper. come on, ross

Steve Sax said...

WP sends amarista to second, none out

Steve Sax said...

Called K! One out

Steve Sax said...

comebacker! two out, amarista on third

Steve Sax said...

sprinklers going on in right field. that's how late this game is running

Steve Sax said...

WIN!!!!!

spank said...

from Puig being the hero to Lamaar Latrell owning the javelin. i love cable TV!

karen said...

Saxy...Guys in the dugout were pulling out all versions of the rally cap. At one point Alex Wood had paper cups sticking off his ears and eventually had 4-5 pair of sunglasses stacked on his cap. During the rally in the 17th they flashed into the dugout and Kike was decked out in complete catcher's gear.

And we win BABY!!
