Friday 9/7 5.40p: Kershaw vs. Gray Saturday 9/8 5p: Buehler vs. Freeland Sunday 9/9 12p: Wood vs. Anderson
The last time we faced a divisional rival, we romped, taking three of four dramatic games vs. the Diamondbacks at home. Arizona entered the series in first place and exited the series in third place, allowing us a very brief stay at the top of the division, with happiness and momentum on our side.
And then, we went out and shit the bed vs. the Mets, ending with a comedy of errors and an inexplicably late yanking of our starting pitcher from the usually trigger-happy Dave Roberts.
Now we're in Colorado, against the division-leading Rockies, back 1.5 games. The 10-game road trip that starts tonight mandates that we get off to a strong start, because we end with four in St. Louis that won't be pretty (16 of the Dodgers' last 22 games are on the road). It's crunch time. Hope we brought our bats on this trip.

They should start the Grandal who can play defense
Tied at 2 in the fifth
Austin Barnes is horrible with the bat this year. Enough.
4-2 LA, going to B9
4-2 Dodgers going to the bottom of the ninth. Maeda coming in. I'm scared.
Never mind. Still Alexander pitching. Still scared.
Long single and a questionable strike three call. Now Maeda coming in.
WIN!!!
Maeda closes it out with a strikeout of Arrenado! Dodgers win!
I will take it. Dodgers 0.5 GB.
Quad: back to MPQ!
WIN

Hopeless bottom of the eighth there. Utley HBP and steals second, and we can’t score him. COL 4, LA 1

Dodgers score 2 in the first. That doesn't suck!
Hill gives up a leadoff HR. That sucks!
Kiké!!
4-2 Dodgers going to bottom of the second.
4-1 actually. Too much MPQ. Can't read the score bug correctly.
You just hopped in a time wormhole, Quad. 4-2 now (top 5)
Now 6-2 after CT3 2-RBI double!
We will need it. With Kemp misplacing balls in the outfield, we need the help.
Good to see the return of LOLliday in left.
Turnered! 8-2 Blue!
It's only the 6th???
Uh oh. Baez warming
Taylor shoulda had that. Damn.
Petey's back! 8-5 Dodgers
Dammit Baez!
Puig makes a catch Kemp would never make
Turner is on fire
or at Coors
damnDamnDAMN!
Shit. 8-6 Dodgers in the 8th, no out
I don't get Maeda as closer in any way. I know they're short on options, but Maeda gets into his own head way too easily--he's one of the last guys I'd choose.
Can we please shut up the meathead who keeps shouting "HEREWEGOROX!"
Kiké leadoff triple in the 9th! Geico please!
I like Kenta in the pen because he's one of the few relievers who can throw gas and has control. Ferguson too
Barnes has been poop with the bat.
Alexander coming in the 9th with one on and no out. Yikes
Nice running catch by Verdugo in LF for out #1!
Also, the Barves get off the mat and lead the snakes 9-4 in the 9th
