After the bedshitting that was getting swept at home by the lowly Pittsburgh Pirates (winners of five out of six games this year), the Dodgers should be thoroughly embarrassed. Especially the offense, whose situational hitting absolutely stunk (a combined 6-for-28 with RISP); the baserunning, with runners getting thrown out trying to pop-up slide (Gavin Lux), or stretching for an extra base in vain (Chris Taylor), or getting picked off (so many people I can't list them all), or not tagging up properly and getting thrown out at home (again, Gavin Lux). We were awful for that series.
And our reward is now hosting the best team in the National League, the Mets, who are getting it done despite injuries to their top starters Jacob deGrom and Max Scherzer. They've got players stepping up in the moment, not cowering under the bed.
And meanwhile, we just sucked. Swinging at first pitches when Pirate pitchers were wavering. Blowing saves that negated comebacks. Spotting the Pirates four runs before the seats were even warm.
Oh, I'm pissed off. This Pirates series was f'ing embarrassing.
Get your shit together, Dodgers!

guillorme ground out to lux
0-0 through 0.5
0-0 through 2
dodgers have one hit
cody's last hit: may 27 vs. arizona
he's now 0-for-7 since that his last hit, almost a week ago
lux with a leadoff single. he steals second.
but mookie k's, freeman grounds out (lux advances to third), and trea is about to go down swinging
dodgers actually won a frickin' challenge call for a change. which helps them to a scoreless fourth
friday nyt crossword: 16:30. not too shabby
taylor speeds to third off a lux single. dodgers have first and third with one out (bellinger, leading off the inning).
so here's mookie.
mookie gets he rbi single on the first pitch!
that ends the 26-consecutive-scoreless-inning streak by the mets.
1-0 los angeles, b5
not exactly sure what happened there given charley's horrible call of the play. but it sounds like freeman is definitely out, and mookie evaded the tag, and lux might have also gotten safe in a rundown?
charley and rick say their replays show lux is out.
yep. that makes ***another*** baserunning gaffe by lux. that's like three gaffes in like two games.
get your shit together, gavin
1-0 los angeles through five full. whoop dee fucking doo, that isn't going to hold up against the mets.
trea turner with a leadoff double, but of course slappy lines out to short. one out
how did marte miss that one? we'll take the rbi-double.
2-0 los angeles
taijuan walker chased with two out in the sixth. jt on second. bellinger up.
and of course, bellinger strikes out swinging.
2-0 los angeles through six
cool. fuck the mets
bellinger is awful. his offensive war is currently 0.8
alonso had no chance with that graterol fastball
taylor leadoff single in the seventh.
lux ekes one out and reaches on an infield single (lux is 2-for-3 tonight with one baserunning gaffe).
first and second, no out, betts up.
freddie pops out. he's been horrible lately.
feeble
so we've got two out, and betts and freeman can't deliver.
damn. that was fucking horrible
nor can trea, who ks. fuck we are awful with two on and none out.
2-0 los angeles through seven
cody you mushmouth, do something here please
and of course, cody flies out meekly.
here comes kimbrel. charley is talking about the shutout, which means craig is giving up at least one run.
fuck you spiderman. pitch right fucker
that's a wrap
wow, a 1-2-3 inning for kimbrel.
win!
that'll be...one bajillion. for eggs.
sorry, egg. it's jumbo.

looks like rios is on the injured list with a right hamstring tear.
@ saxy - im using the 720pstream. it was a clean connect. minimal popups. it usually acts up during super bowls and championship games.
good inning by anderson
trea turner with a two-out single!
trea has a 26-game hitting streak
corey seager: batting .236 with a 114 ops+
time was called, ball slipped out of bassitt's hand --> and dieter plays the theme song for "curb your enthusiasm". hilarious

through one inning: tyler anderson, 14 pitches, 9 strikes. chris bassitt: 16 pitches, 10 strikes.
nice.belli with a bomb
2-0 dodgers
bellinger with a two-run bomb. 2-0 los angeles
rios' hamstring injury is apparently pretty bad. pillar is also injured. yikes
freddie with a hit, breaking an 0-for-10 skid
both radio and tv broadcasters are mentioning how the dodgers got there early to take a lot of work today
slappy works a walk, a surprisingly good at bat. so freddie goes to second.
justin turner has 999 hits as a dodger, 18th in franchise history
turner ks swinging.
2-0 los angeles through three full

zach mckinstry with a two-run homer! and it looked so smooth there, really well done zach
4-0 los angeles, b4, one out
nice grab by alonso to retire lux there
mookie ropes it but it's a fly out to marte in right. three out.
4-0 los angeles through four

freeman flies to center for out number one in the bottom of the fifth
4-0 los angeles through five
1-2-3 inning for anderson
anderson pitching a good game
i didnt even see pillar play and the dudes already hurt.

almonte gives up a leadoff boooooooomb to alonzo. 4-1
almonte then gets three outs.
stretch time
joely rodriguez in to pitch for the mets.
lux leading off.
betts that is so pretty. waited on it and smoked it.
base hit to left.
freeman ks.
rodriguez has a pretty sweet third-strike fastball, it pops. it bamboozled both lux and freeman.
pitching change for trea turner.
i haven't heard a freddie chant in a while
mookie steals second, sees the ball goes the catcher and continues on to third. two out
trea beats out the single up the middle! mookie scores.
trea turner's 42nd rbi this season
come on, slappy

good guys down 6-4 through five.
buehler was horrible tonight.
again
it was a shitty outing by buehler. ruined my saturday night.
game 4 sunday afternoon, and the dodgers nursed a 2-1 lead into the eighth, when brusdar shits the bed. he gives up two runs and it is 3-2 new york.
FUCK!!!
