Tue 3.18: Yoshinobu Yamamoto vs. Shota Imanaga, 3a Wed 3.19: Roki Sasaki vs. Justin Steele, 3a
It's finally time for Dodger Baseball, and it's awful early in the day here in Los Angeles. But I'm totally excited to get up and watch the Dodgers defend their World Series Championship by facing off against the Cubs in the Tokyo Dome. And just in time, Spectrum is finally allowing a subscription streaming service, which should open the Dodgers up to all those cord-cutting fans in the Los Angeles market.
The only bad news? Mookie Betts' recent diet plan (drop 15 pounds in short notice!), a.k.a. the flu he's been fighting since leaving for Japan last week, has knocked our new shortstop off the roster for these two games in Japan. I guess that puts more pressure on that other guy to carry the load. (No, not Freddie Freeman; he did his part during the 2024 World Series!).
I'm going to try and get up at 3a and watch this puppy. Come join us on this GT!
LET'S GO, DODGERS!

I hope all of SoSG Nation and loved ones made it through the fires okay. If not, thoughts and prayers.

Freddie a late scratch.. Kike playing first. Don't know what would keep Freddie out of the lineup but I don't like it.
Dodgers go down in order to start 2025.
Yoshi is penalized for time clock before first pitch.
After walking Happ Yoshi sits down the next three. No score going to second.
Freddie injured the rib taking batting practice.
Reinjured I guess.
