Game 57 Thread: May 29 vs. Phillies, 7p

This manager looks vaguely familiar.

Justin Wrobleski (6-2, 3.07) vs. Zack Wheeler (4-0. 1.67).

Since taking over the manager's role in Philadelphia, former Dodger manager Don Mattingly has led the Phillies to a 20-8 record, basically the reciprocal of the 9-19 record he inherited. So while the Phillies currently appear to be a .500 team (at 29-27), looks are deceiving...which makes for a perfect test for the Dodgers this weekend.

Let's get this party started tonight.

Charley is back on the radio broadcast—and once again, he mis-calls a HR (he thought it was a foul ball). Freeman solo shot, 1-0 LA B1

Wheeler had only given up one HR all year. We now have four HR tonight: Freeman, Muncy, Ohtani, Slappy. All solo shots.

4-0 LA, B5

Post-game show played Apple TV’s call of Freeman’s first-inning HR, since Charley Steiner’s call was so inept
