'Member Clayton Kershaw? Ooooh, I 'member!
'Member Rich Hill? Yeah, I 'member!
Kenta Maeda vs. John Lester
One day. One goddamn day. That's all the time we got to enjoy the Dodgers having the lead in this series before the Baseball Gods kicked us in our collective nether regions for having any kind of hope whatsoever. We can bark at Angel Hernandez and MLB replay headquarters all we want for that blown call at home, but a) It didn't end up mattering in the long run, and b) Things had started to unravel before that with Utley's weird barehanded catch error.
Now the series is tied, with one more game at home. Kenta Maeda, not Clayton Kershaw, gets the start, which makes some sense (save Kershaw to possibly stave off elimination in Game 6), except that Kenta hasn't been what you would call good lately. If there is any upside at all, you can argue that the Dodgers' two losses in this series were so fluky and weird that they can't possibly happen that way again. But that's dangerous thinking that can anger the Baseball Gods. (adjusts rally thong to protect nether regions)
Better eat more 'Member Berries and remember the good times. Oooh, 'Member Vin Scully? Yeah, I 'member!
Hold on. Vin Scully?
Legendary Vin Scully, voice of the #Dodgers, plans to attend Game 5 of the NLCS for his first visit to Dodger Stadium since his retirement.

AGon sixth?
Punishment for getting thrown out at home yesterday
But...he didn't get thrown out. (blood boils again)
Adroam Gpmza;ez
Vin has arrived.
He batting third
I like Puig's arm in RF
I'm a little (okay a lot) freaked out about this line up but totally jazzed that our Vin is in da house.
#WINFORVIN
i think Roberts has surrendered this game. fuck it
#WinForMe
It's weird to think Vin is at the park as a spectator.
Wonder if he'll be cheering on the boys in blue now that he doesn't have to worry about professional bias?
Will he do the wave?
Will he make it on Kiss Cam?
Will he log on to SoSG and join the PT?
television's on mute,Vinny!
I LOVE YOU VINNY!!!!
Vinny's wife is hot...just saying
that's a wrap
Cubs ain't joking around...
Maeda somehow escapes the 1st
I didn't have time to write my "Kike Hernandez Should Not Be On This Team" post. But it's queued up. Let's see if it will run tomorrow.
Kiké scared him.
Hell. Kiké scared me.
Kike walks on four pitches, JT Ks but Seager singles and there are two on
Chooch advances Keekay
Dodgers strand another man in scoring position
Should have scored but Maeda will give up 19 runs here anyway
Kenta K then BB
Kenta better in the 2nd
Lester far from sharp but he mows thru AGon, Puig & Joc anyway
Kenta gets thru another inning
Feeling kind of detached from this game. I know Maeda is going to make us all sick so I'm building those good old protective walls.
Know what you mean
I think he was yelling at the ump for those two borderline calls?
Oh you're probably right. I was kind of hoping he was going to piss off the Boys and light a fire under them.
Here's the meltdown inning. 2 on, no out for the Cubs
Start moving around Doc. Maeda always comes undone in or around the 4th.
Reading my mind again Orel!
Why isn't our home crowd making all kinds of noise? No wonder we get a bad rap.
Maeda out, Fields in to face Lester for some reason
(cries)
eeek
@ Karen 6:32
they're too busy on SnapChat
phew
Tie game! Woohoo!
IT'S TIED FOLKS SHOULD BE A LEAD BUT I'll TAKE IT RIGHT NOW
THANK YOU BASEBALL GODS!!!
HK47 giving the boys some life that inning.
(cries)
Joc with an incompetent route on a routine fly ball leads to a double
Dayton Ks Rizzo or some dangerous Cubs guy!
SPARKS WIN
Dayton escapes!
Fucking Puig! Nice jump
Just Puig'n Baby!!
Tied after 5
Dodger blues baby
FUCK
He can't the Dodgers do that?
The Cubs have Blanton's number. Sucks. He's been great this year.
Seager with the one-out single to give us false hope!
Ruiz pops foul to the catcher. Pathetic.
HK47 swings at a ball in the dirt to end the inning. Bleh!
GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER MOTHERFUCKERS. SWINGING AT BALLS AND SHIT.
Cubs manage not to score in the 7th
Looks like they made up for that in the eighth. Damn Baez.
Goddammit FB is pisssed and drunk
Fuck our lefty lineup
Fuck our tired-ass bullpen
Fuck Cub-loving Cardinal punkass Joe Buck on any network
FB is tired of this shit, already sick to my stomach about Saturday
Glad I sold my tix for tonight. I couldn't have taken it after yesterday.
And that night I had my first doubts about the Rally Thong. I knew I should've gone for the one with the elephant trunk that goes over your dong. Or perhaps a different style altogether? Rousing Boxers? Stimulation Tighty Whities! Electrifying Boxer Brief.
*cries...and wipes away tears with thong
