Raise your hand or forked tongue if you've never heard of two of those three opposing starters. What happened to the D'backs? They're this year's Padres, who finished 2015 with 74-88 record. Right now the D'backs are trending to a 71-91 record. Ouch.

So this is still the lineup after we trade Puig?
I understood that reference!
Also, Orel Hershiser is the wikipedia article of the day
Dos Equis lady in the stand above my seats just asked me where I've been for awhile.
Also, just saw a t-shirt that said "Make America Very Pleasant Again - Vin Scully 2016"
And I just caught a Snorlax!!!
Star Wars night is getting a little silly and played out at this point.
I am hot (the weather kind) and O so bitchy. I needs to see me some snake stomping tonight.
Here we go! Hello to Mr. F, Dusty & Karen!
Hola Orel!!!
I am hot and bitchy too. Let's see how this works out
Lots of contact but no hits for the Dodgers in the 1st. Gotta believe something will fall eventually
Hot and Bitchys 2 - Snakes 0
SF 1, WSH 0, bot 3
3-0 Blue B4
*H&Bs
Nats tie frisco at 1
Now 2-1 Nats!
Now 3-1 Nats.
I like where this is headed
Kenta pulled after 93 pitches. 3-1 Dodgers in the 7th, one out
Maeda getting sucky.
Bullpen continuing to get sucky
This is becoming a nightmare inning. Snakes with bases loaded, two in, one out
Fans are getting restless in the reserve level. 6 people in my section are playing Pokemon Go.
And Blanton walks in the tying run
Blanton walks in tying run.
Fuck fuck fuck
Damn you Orel!
Doc coming out with the hook. Avilon in.
go ahead run in
FUCK
DITTO^^
game totally unraveling now
They're creaming their designer jeans in frisco.
That was the longest half inning ever!
"Is there anyone left in the bullpen?"
-Mrs. Quad
Joc launches a 2 run homer. 7-5 B7
Joc hits a bomb out to right center! This crowd had some life again!
@Mrs. Q7...Kenley is all I can think of.
Exactly Karen.
TIED!!!!
Woohoo! Utley is the man!
Walk the dog...D'backs score 3, Dodgers score 4. Wow
Puig's last appearance in a Dodger uniform?
And he advances the runner on popup
^a
Grandal RBI-single for the lead!
I'm sure the top of the 8th will not be eventful at all
Giants hit into a triple play
Kenley in for the 4-out save
1 pitch 1 out
Seager insurance! 9-7
Here we go...
Giants lose!
Dodgers win!
BIG WIN now 1 game out.
Frisco should be hearing Blue footsteps about now.
YEEAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Huge win for the boys tonight
GAME 2
Utley 2B
Seager SS
Turner 3B
Gonzalez 1B
Kendrick LF
Grandal C
Toles RF
Pederson CF
Kazmir P
Kemp traded to the Barves for Hector Olivera. When do we play the Barves again? Asking for the MKWs out there.
Not til next year unfortunately
Great avi Q7!
Thanks Orel. It's Kershaw's reaction the Maeda's HR in April.
*to not the.
Thanks for nothing, Nats
looks like the Madres have called it a day for thew next five years.
Matt Kemp: from future HoFer to twice-traded damaged goods
so I'm just getting on board here....Matty traded again??? And Orel's 'Thanks for nothing Nats'....does that mean frisco beat them today??? I'm sorry that my man Matt is getting the nobody wants him treatment but I am happy he's not in our division.
***Still a proud MKW tho....
C'mere gives up lead off home run. 1-0 snakes.
That's right Karen, Matty is now a Brave and the Giants beat the Nats today
C'mere is making my Spidey Sense tingle...and not in the good way.
I see Shitty Kazmir showed up today
AGon bloop single followed by Howie GIDP. That kind of day
Bats are just dead tonight
^^Along with C'mere's arm.
Getting shut down by Shitley
This is why I find it hard to believe in this year's team. They've had some great wins but then they'll just turn around and drop a turd like this one
Joc with the too-little-too-late HR. Dodgers lose 4-2
Clearly I am going to need to be medicated to survive the rest of this season.
Jermac the Magnificent aka JHair with a crystal ball is predicting Chris Archer, Ryan Braun and Jay Bruce will be traded. At least 2 of the 3 will be in Dodger Blue. Also, Puig will remain a Dodger.
Norris hurt, coming out with 1 on and 1 out in first. Ross Stripling coming in.
We get away with it cheaply enough. 1-0 Snakes
Going to bot 1 Snakes up by 1.
Damn you!!!
Dodgers load the bases with two out. Puig up. Guess what happens next
I predict first-pitch foul popup
RA for Puig...
Double damn you!
AWO
(blows smoke from gun)
Hey Orel...Have you heard anything about a trade for Ryan Braun? I hadn't till today.
Nary a peep on Twitter about it, fwiw
That's good, SVS. Give Goldschmidt another chance
SF 1, WSH 0, bot 4
WTF kind of balk was that?? Now calling it catcher's interference.
3-0 snakes.
RA with no out for Taylor. Predict GIDP with run scored
But no! Squib single and everyone's safe! 3-1 Snakes
Everybody moves up!!! Hot Damn! 3-1 bads guys...Agon coming up to PH with RA and no outs
AGon makes up with the run-scoring GIDP. Dodgers down 3-2
Agon GIDP but picks up 2nd run...3-2 d-bas.
^d-bags
Howie ties it up!
TIED BABY!!!
PUIG'D...4-3 BLUE
Trade Puig while his value's high!
Howie didn't even flinch on that HBP
5-3 Dodgers
Grandal 3-run HR!
8-3 ON YAZ HOMER IN 6TH.
Giants won, dammit. But Corey's 3-run HR makes it 11-3 Dodgers
Joc added a 2 run bomb! Series win for the boys in blue!
I blame myself for the gnats' wins. I was in Fresno this weekend and, against my better judgement, I tortured myself listening to their radio broadcasts. When I got there the Nats were leading 3-0. The minute I tuned in their offense stalled and the Pendejas Del Norte scored 5 unanswered runs. Back in SoCal though and all is right again.
noice
Dammit, Cliffy!
SO, Friday night was my first game at the park this year. Love the bobble head display! After getting my star wars shirts, we roamed every level, eventually sitting in some seats on reserve so the little ones could be near the playground. I love the new kid's meal options, great new addition! My kids have grown up at the park, each having been to their first games at less than 35 days old, no small feat coming from Fresno, but they have been there a lot, and are very well behaved. So much so, that a pair of security guards came up to us during the seventh inning stretch, and gave each of my kids "47" brand Dodger hats. Still in the bag with the receipt. I can honestly say I have never seen that happen before. At the very beginning of the 9th we started making our way back down, stopping on club level to watch the last out on the TV by the elevators and watch Pope Vinny do his walk by, (I swear he waived at me!) We made our way down to the field level and sniped out some great seats behind home plate to watch the Star Wars-ish music played with Fireworks. After that, we headed out of the park and the long trip back to Fresno.
Only beef I had was, nowhere in the emails about the special night, did it say no Light Sabers. My son had his Kylo Ren hoodie and saber and I wanted to get a pic of him with a few of the troopers on patrol, but all weapons were apparently being checked at the gate. So I had to walk all the way back to the car to drop them off. If you wanted to, a lot of semi fans were throwing their sabers away, so if you had wanted them, there were tons in there!
I'll be back for a few more weekend games before the end of the season, but this was a great first game to be at!
