Game Thread: 6/16 Happy Bum Day!

[Stokes1931]

I hate the Dodgers. Since 1965. Always have. Always will.

But, I am impressed with their resiliency. They lose Turner. They lose Kershaw. They lose Seager. Piggy isn't hitting. Belanger isn't hitting. They lose Ryu. They lose Hill. They lose Utley. They lose Maeda. They lose a ton of games in May, and look like they are in free fall.

And yet, here they are in June, 2.5 bag of the Dbags and 3 ahead of the Rox and Giants, and playing well. Not sure how they are doing it, duct tape and baling wire I suppose.

So I hate them, but admire them.

We've gotten to Jensen before so a bloop and a blast, or f it, EWS ftw.

There's your bloop (E5)!

And the lineup needs to keep hitting. It wasn't really the pitching as a problem today. @tzill approved I'm sure.

Giants 8 for their last 52 with RISP, and only 6 of those hits have driven in runs.

"[The Giants] have not scored more than two runs in any of their last 11 games at Dodger Stadium."

Interesting game...Bum looked like he couldn't locate his FB all night. By the 5th, the dogs were sitting on his cutter. The pitch to Kike was a meatball -- it deserved to be crushed. Awful,awful pitch. Otherwise a very interesting game. I thought it turned on the check swing "strike" to Herk. It looked like a walk to me. Anyway Bum looked 80% back.

My sister won the 50/50 raffle - $15k after taxes. The latrine looks old and in need of upgrades. It's a nightmare to get to, to park, to use the men's room. Very limited food selection.

I got reminded how perfect our yard is.

Get em tomorrow.

Better record than last year.

I prefer a 100 loss season to a 82 loss season.

I didn’t follow the game today, but I think it isn’t clear why the Giants lost.

Mac played the whole game. Hasn’t Boch learned yet that if you have to play Mac, you gotta take him out in the 6th?

We have to be able to win the 1-0 games, as the O won't always be there.
