Mon 5/9 3.30p: Urias vs. Quintana Tue 5/10 3.30p: Gonsolin vs. Bry Wilson Wed 5/11 9.30a: TBD vs. TBD
A sweep of the Cubs this past weekend pushed the Dodgers' winning streak to six in a row, and now Los Angeles is 1.5 games clear of the Padres and four games ahead of the Giants and Rockies. But with Blake Treinen out through the All-Star Break, we really need to be racking up these wins against lowly NL Central teams (like the 11-16 Pirates) in May, before the Dodgers' opponents get a lot more challenging next month (Mets, White Sox, Giants, Angels, Braves).

Urias LHP
Freddie HBP but whoever is in left for the Bucs made a great catch on JT leaving Freddie at first. On to B1
I know I said this before but I am really enjoying D Train.
Bucs score a run in B4. 1-0 Bad Guys.
That's gonna leave a mark
Why are we getting punked by the Pirates?!
B6: Urias had second and third with none out, and wriggled out of it without giving up a run.
Still 1-0 PIT, though. Let's get going, Dodgers!
PHEW!!!! Julio had Bucs on 2nd and 3rd with no outs and got out of it. 1-0 Bucs after 6.
CT3 out of the game after taking a hard foul off of his inner knee in T6.
Dodgers have only two hits through six frames. 0 runs.
Pirates have 10 hits through six. 1 run.
Ugh on CT3. Not good
One-out walk to Lux, T7.
Come on, Mookie!
Mookie single! Lux to second. One out.
Jennifer and I put Lavender oil on our wrists for good luck. We will win now!!!
We're girls. Get over it
Bring them in Freddie!
I think we all need to be lavendered at this point.
Dammit, Freeman and Trea both fail to deliver. That may have been our best shot.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
That sucked
I like D Train but he's a bit of a homer. I'm down With Jessica.
What would one need to take Lavender oil off of one's wrist??
Criminy. Leadoff HR to start B7. We suck.
Bickford, Barnes both shitting the bed here
Nickelback gives up another run
If I was a drinker tonight would be one helluva night.
@Spanky....I didn't care for her when she was with ESPN. But I like her with Joe, she's doing a good job. My problem is I don't like all the different announcers. I hate change and I'm a Joe and Orel girl.
Well, at least we aren't shut out.
Final, PIT 5-1.
BOOOOOO
Justin Turner (0-for-3 today, batting .168) simply cannot be in the four-hole. Not now.
Belli with 4 Ks. Not good
@SAX...No problems tonight. I didn't make to many comments tonight so that might of had something to do with it but anyway so far so good.
👍
You know who DID have problems last night?
The Dodgers’ offense!
JT 0-for-3, and inexplicably batting cleanup (3 LOB)
Cody 0-for-4
CT3 0-for-3 and injured
Barnes 0-for-3
Lux 0-for-3
@STEVE SAX.....tehehe!!!

CT3 sits, probably due to last night's injury.
Slappy also sits for the second straight game.
If our 4-5-6 put up another crappy game, we're going to lose this series.
Just watched the highlights (sort of) of yesterday's game. JT seemed to be hitting it hard, but right at people. We'll see if the 5 spot is any better for him today.
JT with a run scoring double. Nice. 2-0 LA
Mookie throws Gammil out at the plate,
Dude should have been safe at home. Barnesy didn't tag him. Good throw by Mookie nonetheless
Catman a little loosey goosey.
Bad call goes Catman's way. 2-0 Blue
Dodgers making.some noise here
2 on one out. Top of 3rd
Damn. JTs second double brings in 2. 4-9 LA
4-0
7-0 LA. Okay, this is a much better start.
Dodgers have 10 hits through 3 frames
So the question being put out there to win possible AllStar tickets is 'What is your favorite baseball movie'. My number 1 is Major League and number 2 Field of Dreams.
Any takers??
Gonsolin isn't going smoothly, but he has a 7-0 lead, and has yielded only one hit through 3.
D Train was doing a terrible job on the announcements so now they've got Kirsten doing it.
Belli with 4 Ks yesterday and 2 today.
Dodgers bats getting sleeeeeeeeeepy again.
7-0 through 5.5, but Dodgers going down quickly since the third.
Graterol in for B6.
Gonsolin's line: 5.0 IP, 1 H, 0 ER, 4 BB and 5 Ks.
Not bad, but it wasn't easy for Tony. Wish he could have pitched a bit deeper than 84 pitches.
Brusdar gets a GIDP to get out of the sixth, seeing only three batters.
Max with a one-out triple to right!
8-zip.
3 doubles for JT.
Belli doubles in JT 9-0.
Rios 2 run blast. 11-0 Boys
Ok we are back. 11-0 off a string of hits from Max, JT, Cody, and Rios. Wow.
Okay, so I've heard of Baby Mama but Cat Daddy?? I'm just lovin' D Train!!
Max earning his check at first.
Vesia in for the seventh. Error by Alberto helps the Pirates have first and third with one out.
Whoops, didn't realize that Vesia himself ALSO had an error contributing to that sticky situation. Either way, Alex escapes, so it's still 11-0 LA, through 7.
Yep. There goes the shut out.
Moronta has the bases loaded with Pirates, one out
"Moronta. Bad times!"
JT in the 5 spot worked!
Come on, Bickford. You didn't do well today. Now you've got a 10-run lead, so starting out with a leadoff walk is not good.
@Quad 6.29p: Hmm. I owe JT a nice PGT, I think...
WIN
WIN BABY!!!!!
See y'all bright and early tomorrow morning!
Cubs had two on and none out in the first, and couldn't plate anyone.
Then the Padres scored two in the bottom of the first.
Cubs again have two on here in the top of the second.
Cubs lose 5-4.
PGT up!
See you tomorrow bright and early!

Pepiot RHP
Major League Debut for RYAN PEPIOT
Breakfast Burritos all the way around (looking at you Quad)
Our boy CT3 back in after that horrible foul off of his knee. What a freaking stud.
Coffee and toast for me,please
Pepiot understandingly shaky in his first two innings but doesn't give up any runs. 0-0 going to B2.
MORNING SPANKSTER!!!!
I'm glad Pepiot got out of the inning with a strikeout but he's shaky as fuck
Good morning Karen!!
Through 3 Pepiot 0 runs, 1 hit, 5 walks, 77 pitches.
@Spank...I get Dontrelle is a homer, he is a little heavy on how grateful he is to be with such a great organization but I still like him.
@Karen - I don't like his cheering when the Dodgers do something good. I never liked that by announcers. Kind of bush league. Feels like I'm listening to the Cubs or Reds. Shit like that
Pepoit goes 3. 0-0. Evan Phillips in.
@Spank...Part of that is probably because you grew up listening to Vin who you could never tell who he was rooting for.
oh man there's a game on! Sorry ladies and gents!
Glad Pepcid did well in his debut
Dodgers need to score some runs. Been a feeble showing so far.
Would be nice if we got more than two hits here. 0-0 through five full
There we go! Trea Turner, batting leadoff (for the lineup, and the inning), with a double to start the sixth.
@ Karen - that's somewhat true. It took me a while to warm up to 2 people in the booth calling a.Dodgers game instead of the old school just 1 announcer.
Geez, Freeman hits a comebacker that turns into a double play. Dammit.
@spank and @karen: I'm not sold on the D-train in the booth. Little too casual, talking about crockpot cooking and everything.
Slappy base hit...would have scored Trea Turner from second had he not gotten out :(
Nope, Max flies out.
0-0 through 5.5
DAMN!!!!!
Fuck
And, we're losing.
Solo HR to lead off the bottom of the sixth.
Tommy coming undone.
Jeez, Kahnle shitting the bed here. HR, HBP, HR. What the hell, dude
No outs in the sixth. LA down 3-0.
Well you're facing a.minor league team so you pitch your minor league arms I guess
This from hitters batting .220, .238, and .167 (6/7/8 hitters). Way to go, Tommy!
I hate to see Kahnle struggle. It's been a long road back for him.
I'm so much nicer than you two!!! :) :) :)
@ Saxy - haha. I heard that crock pot comment by D Train. that was random as fuck.
JT walks!!! RALLY!
Lucky Belli. Wide open left side of the infield and he hits into the shift. Pisses me off.
Great AB for CT3
Bases juiced for Edwin Rios
Bases juiced!!! No outs
Fuck yeah!! Rios!!!
I ALMOST called it!! I told Jenn CT3's gonna walk and Rios is going to hit a slam. I'll take the double though!!!!
I love beating up on (former) Giants.
Go ahead run on third, 1 out.
Definitely take the double. I just wanted a run or 2.
There’s that offense!
Rios with a bases-clearing double. And then Lux sacrifices him over to third for only the first out.
@karen: way to call it for Edwin Rios!
@spank: remind me please, what is up with that photo btw? Dodger person hanging out with three women in giants garb? Is he doing charity work or something?
Come on, Trea
2-1 count to Trea
Trea walks. That sets up the double play though. Freeman up.
Juiced again. Slappy coming up.
Freddie walks. Bases loaded. Let’s go!
Come on, Slappy!
Not good, Slappy. Line out to short.
@ Saxy - that's Ethier with the Full House girls all grown up in Giants garb. I'm not much of an Ethier fan and the photo pretty much makes my Ethier hate legit.
UGH CASTILLO!!
C'mon Max!!
Good play by Diego Castillo, but still Will Smith we needed more there
@spank: gotcha. Thanks for the explanation
Max down 0-2
Max works it back to a 3-2 count
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Dammit max that was right down the center of the plate. Called strike 3. Booo.
Damn. Muncy got fooled on that change.
Tied 3-3 at the stretch.
Shit
Dammit. Daniel Hudson gives up a one-out HR to the rotund Vogelbach. It’s 4-3 PIT
If our bullpen is gonna suck this bad, we had better get some bats working
Spank was right. Minor league arms for a minor league team.
Wtf man. Pitch right,Hudson.
Great play by Freddie!
Spank was right. Minor league arms for a minor league team.
Dodgers get a gift double play to get out of a second-and-third-with-one-out jam.
4-3 🥧🐀🐀
JT fly out. Bellinger called K.
This is not good.
Down 4-3, mid-8
What the fuck, Lux. Field the goddamn ball
Clutch defensive replacement substitution by Roberts putting Lux in left
Dodgers are 1-for-7 with RISP
Lux, that run is on you. You’d better hit a HR next inning.
Horrible throw to the plate by Trea.it hit the dirt. Wtf man
Dodgers down 5-3 going to the ninth. Last licks for LA.
It's not going to be a happy flight home.
5-3 Bucs.
And that’s it. Pathetic.
That's a wrap. Horrible series by the Dodgers. Basically they sucked.
