This guy. 'Nuff said.

9/9, 4p: Clayton Kershaw vs Jose Fernandez
MARLINS 4, DODGERS 1: Kershaw: 3 innings, 5 Ks, takes the loss--but we're happy to have him back [Sax]

9/10, 4p: Rich Hill vs. Tom Koehler
DODGERS 5, MARLINS 0: Rich Hill with a perfect seven-inning sort-of game; Pederson 2 HR [Sax]

9/11, 10a: Kenta Maeda vs. Jose Urena
MARLINS 3, DODGERS 0. Ugh [Orel]

Friday Fish Fry

karen said...

@ Orel....I was MIA through the snakes series but appreciate the picture of The Athlete Formerly Known as Sponge Worthy. He looks fine, fine fine but happily he pitches like shit, shit, shit. best of both worlds for me.

Cliff Beefpile said...

Ethier's back too. Yay.

karen said...

^^^cc:Spanky

spank said...

FUCK ETHIER!

Fred's Brim said...

Hehe

karen said...

That's my boy!!!! ^^^

Fred's Brim said...

Dangit

karen said...

FUCK DONNIE BASEBALL!

Fred's Brim said...

Thinking if Clayton was 100%, he'd have been swinging there

Fred's Brim said...

Clayton checking his pitch speeds after throwing certain pitches, the slider maybe. Fastball seems good, 92-94, some pitches in the high 80s. I assume its the slider

Fred's Brim said...

Cmon don't give Frenchy anything to hit. That guys gets himself out stepping out of the clubhouse

spank said...

Kershaw,you rock!!

Fred's Brim said...

Shit, Utley should have had that
Hanging curve.
2-0 bad guys

karen said...

KKK and 1 near decapitation

Cliff Beefpile said...

Dammit. There's no way diving out of the way of that Fernandez line drive didn't hurt.

Fred's Brim said...

Ugh,Fernandez settling in, it's gonna be a long night

Cliff Beefpile said...

Please, baseball gods, please let Kershaw's back feel good tomorrow.

Fred's Brim said...

Gotta take advantage of these Reddick hits, he's only got 5 or 6 left

Fred's Brim said...

This ump needs some help

Fred's Brim said...

Ugh, Bud

Fred's Brim said...

I forgot about Bud

Fred's Brim said...

Oh yeah, JP is on the team too

And he lets Dee swipe 3rd when he tries to pickoff the dude at 1st

Cliff Beefpile said...

Sure, NOW Dee Gordon becomes an effective baseball player.

Fred's Brim said...

A perfect bunt gets Dee home who shouldn't have been at 3rd
That's shitty.
And another pitching change.
That's shitty too

Fred's Brim said...

Not that it matters because we aren't scoring tonight

Cliff Beefpile said...

#bunting

Fred's Brim said...

Ichiro up to finish us off

Cliff Beefpile said...

Ichiro!

Cliff Beefpile said...

I feel bad for Ichiro, but FUCK YEAH that hit the ump!

Cliff Beefpile said...

Call some more of those low strikes now, asshole!

Fred's Brim said...

Fuck this game is annoying
Maybe its time for bed

Cliff Beefpile said...

Hoo boy, here comes Stanton...against Avilan. This one might end up in the Everglades.

karen said...

^^^and will probably end up as alligator poop.

Fred's Brim said...

I'll be happy if we can go 5-5 on this long road trip

Fred's Brim said...

Avilan is rotten

Cliff Beefpile said...

@Karen, I wish Ethier would end up as alligator poop.

Cc: Spank

Cliff Beefpile said...

Jeez, I didn't realize I was in such a sour mood. This is what happens without the soothing voice of Vinny.

Hideo Nomo said...

This one's on me for forgetting the "Game 1."

Fred's Brim said...

This shitty roadtrip is on me for thinking about going to the games in NY

Orel said...

GAME 2
Kendrick 2B
Seager SS
Turner 3B
González 1B
Grandal C
Reddick RF
Puig LF
Pederson CF
Hill P

Orel said...

Karen @9/9, 3:31p: That picture will never get old. Same with hitting 5 HR off him

Fred's Brim said...

If you had to guess who'd jinx this, who would it be?
Of course. Charlie.

karen said...

Puig'd!!

karen said...

Is Doc taking Hill out?

karen said...

OMG...he's out.

Fred's Brim said...

what the fuck

Fred's Brim said...

that's ridiculous

Fred's Brim said...

if this guarantees Hill throws nothing but shutout innings the rest of the way, then I am cool with it

Fred's Brim said...

Kenley now, really?

Fred's Brim said...

for 1 frikkin batter? that's dum

Fred's Brim said...

but we win, i'll take it

Dusty Baker's Toothpick said...

So I guess Rich Hill doesn't suck ass like I first thought when he was acquired. I'm beginning to think Hill, Kershaw, Maeda and the rest of the patchwork pitching staff can lead us to the promised land.

Roberts should have left him in to finish up his tango with the perfecto. Why not? he only needed six more outs, maybe 20 pitches? Fuckin let the guy pitch. Enough with the pitch counts already.

Why didn't the Blister get his own post game interview?

karen said...

Fish pitcher pitching perfecto through 4.

Fish Pitcher pitching perfecto through 4.

karen said...

JOC BREAKS IT UP AT 4.2 WITH A SINGLE.

2-0 Bad Guys.

Dusty Baker's Toothpick said...

pefect games in an imperfect world are overrated

Fred's Brim said...

The Curse of Rich Hill

Fred's Brim said...

1-2 vs Miami
1-2 vs Yanks
2-2 vs Snakes

Fred's Brim said...

Reddick your only value is defense fer chrissakes!

Fred's Brim said...

Why am I watching this? 3-0 seems like 7-0

karen said...

Rally Baby!!

karen said...

UJTD. 3-0 Fish.

Dusty Baker's Toothpick said...

Why is Red Dick batting in the 2 hole?

Fred's Brim said...

Meeeeeeeeek

Orel said...

WELL THAT SUCKED

Steve Sax said...

Giants only three back now. Ugh
