Game 74 Thread: June 17 vs. Padres, 7p

TBD vs. Randy Vasquez (3-4, 3.57).

Dylan Cease was mowing us down in the first two innings: five straight swinging Ks, followed by a Max Muncy weak tapper to the mound. But then the fourth inning came around, and seven of eight consecutive Dodgers reached base, and suddenly the Dodgers were up 6-2 on the Padres. Cease ended up lasting only five innings, and although the Dodgers used seven pitchers to secure the victory (the day before another spot-start and/or bullpen game), it seemed like a pretty big win in the opener of this four-game series.

Oh yeah, and that Ohtani guy pitched as well. He gave up a run and lasted only one inning, so his ERA is 9.00.

I hope that guy makes it in the bigs.

Anyway, today is game #2 and who knows what we'll see on the mound, so I hope the Dodgers are ready to (yet again) bat their way out of trouble.

spank said...

pages still a train wreck in centerfield

Machado is such a bitch.

karen said...

Damn! That bitch worked the walk after waving his hand during Trivino's pitch.

spank said...

meh

karen said...

That was SOOO on purpose! Time for the friars to get some bean balls at their heads. Maybe put Machado in a coma. (That was mean. Sorry God). Doc just got thrown out of the game. Let's clear some benches.

kick dirt on home plate Doc

spank said...

so the Padres manager can come out and talk to the ump but Roberts get thrown out for the same thing. Riiiiight

karen said...

PAGES BABY!!!!!

spank said...

Pages again!!!

karen said...

Spanky...Doc didn't even leave foul territory. The ump that threw him out is the same ump that made that horrible call last night on Machado's swing that went around. Trip Gibson said he checked. Next swing Machado hit a sac fly and scored a run. This shit really riles me up. If you're drinking, time to have one for me!

spank said...

slappy!!

karen said...

SLAPPY!!!! After a 12 pitch AB he goes yard for 2 runs! 5-3 Blue.

spank said...

@karen....he still came out of the dugout when they said not to. i just dont understand how afterward the padres manager came out and didnt get thrown out. i mean the Dodgers got the warning too when they did nothing so why didn't the coming out of the dugout also apply to both.

spank said...

rbi single for Pages.

karen said...

Spanky...I didn't see them tell him to not come out. It still pisses me off tho.

karen said...

8-3 Dodgers. The baseball gods know that the Padres are a bunch of bastards.

spank said...

goddamn shohei. you strike out too much

spank said...

@karen...the padres announcer was calling the shenanigans while it was happening. he said Doc got the warning and a couple seconds later he came out and got ejected. i dont know what joe davis was doing at that time....prolly interviewing Kershaw.

spank said...

wtf is kopech doing? i leave for a second and now the bases are juiced

spank said...

take this idiot out

spank said...

kopech you dumb fuck.

karen said...

What a roller coaster ride this game has been. I had to break out the Ben & Jerry's.

karen said...

Buckle up.

karen said...

Another great play at short for Mookie.

Steve Sax said...

Sorry I'm here late. Work has been nuts.

Scott gets Machado to ground to Mookie for the first out in the ninth.

Steve Sax said...
