Series Thread (Games 89-91): July 9-11 vs. Diamondbacks

Fri 7/9: TBD vs. Widener
Sat 7/10: Buehler vs. C Smith
Sun 7/11: Gonsolin vs. M Kelly

The Dodgers stumble into the All-Star Break having lost three of four to Mattingly's Marlins, so we didn't gain any ground against the Giants and we still sit a game back. Now here's one more series before the break (except for Mookie Betts, Max Muncy, and Chris Taylor), but with the Giants playing the sub-.500 Nationals, and us down to bullpen bullets in the gun, I'm not hoping for first place.

Nunez has a 1-2-3 inning in his debut. And Mrs. Quad pointed out he looks like Matt Kemp.

QuadSevens said...

Down 3-2 in the eighth.

@Q7 & Mrs Q7...I fell asleep and missed Nunez. Hopefully he won't be on his way back to OKC tonight and I'll be able to check him out. I could sure use a Matty fix.

@karen You can probably catch a glimpse on the post game show.

We are two games back with two to go before the break.

karen said...

We couldn't even beat the lowly Snakes.

Word on the street...Mookie out of ASG because of injury (don't know what) but the good news is that JT and Walker Buehler are headed to Coors Field.

@Q7 & Mrs Q7....I just saw our Matty doppelganger and he does look like Matty!! Especially around the eyes.

karen said...

Belli bomb brings in two for a 4-0 LA lead in the first.

karen said...

Pollock goes yard. 5-0 still in first.

@karen Mrs Quad is glad you agree on the Matty doppelgänger.

TURNER GRAND SLAM!! 9-0!!

ALL STAR JUSTIN TURNER HITS A GRAND SLAM. 9-0 LA.

QuadSevens said...

The second inning has been a Dodger All-Star showcase! Buehler single, Betts walk, CT3 walk, Turner grand slam!

QuadSevens said...

So with the score 9-0, Mrs Quad and I started watching The Tomorrow War. Got an alert that said the Dodgers won 22-1! 8 home runs including 2 grand slams! Talk about an offensive outburst! Holy shiznit!

Catman goes 4 innings only gives up one run. Nunez gives up a run in the fifth. Down 2-1 going to the bottom half.

Steve Sax said...

Not looking good. We are leaving lots of ducks on the pond.

QuadSevens said...

One out hit for CT3 in the seventh. Let’s go Pollock!

QuadSevens said...

FC for Pollock. CT3 into scoring position and a pitching change.

QuadSevens said...

Tio Albert in time PH.

QuadSevens said...

Down on three pitches. Bleh. 4-1 Snakes.

QuadSevens said...

Rancho ardiendo in the eighth!

QuadSevens said...

Turner with a long single and Smith HBP. 4-3 now!

QuadSevens said...

CT3 ties it up! 2 down on some bad base running by Smith.
