Game 9 Thread: April 3 vs. Giants, 7p

Tyler Glasnow, just hanging out around Dodger Stadium.

Tyler Glasnow vs. Kyle Harrison.

Kyle Harrison is the Giants' new pitching prospect, with a 2-1 career record and 3.98 ERA across 8 games. The 22-year-old debuted in August last year, and supposedly neutralizes lefty batters with a hard slurve from a low three-quarters arm slot.

Meanwhile, the Dodgers--who, to be fair, have played more games than most teams so far this season--are turning out to be pretty potent offensively:

  • Team batting average: 4th (.293), behind AZ, ATL, and PIT
  • Team OPS: 3rd (.863), behind ATL, AZ
  • Batting average: Mookie Betts second at .500 (NYY Anthony Volpe at .529)
  • Home runs: Betts first (5); Teoscar Hernandez second (4); eight others tied at 3
  • RBI: Betts first (11)
  • Runs: Betts first (14), T Herndandez second (9)
  • Slugging: Betts first (1.167)
  • OPS: Betts first (1.772)
  • Hits: Betts first (15); Freddie Freeman, Will Smith, and SD Luis Campusano tied for second (12)
  • AB: Ohtani first (33). But wait, that must mean...
  • BB: Betts first (8)

I'm not sure if I'll be able to see this majesty high up in the reserve deck tonight, but I'll be there, for my first Dodgers game in 2024! Let's get that SWEEP!

I have nothing against Jack, after all he's been feeding us free Jumbo Jacks for years but there is no fucking way that this new burger he is peddling.is better than In 'N Out. There is just no way.
