We need to launch a few to Nebraska to get some fear in Rocky pitching right off the bat. Pardon the pun. Watch out for fences and keep an eye on them Rockheads as they play tricks with the balls. Watch out for them using non humidore balls while giving opponents ones from the machine. Cheating basterds everywhere. And don't run into the damn fences. take a loss on a ball hit to the wall then puig out for a month.

15-6 damn. He's good. Whats he doing in Colorado?

 

[LASports96]

Fuck Coors Field

 

[sublime4eva]

Announcers are blind, didn't see the ball glance off Ramirez for the run in the 1st....lol

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

WTF? are you swinging at AJ ? SMH

 

[sublime4eva]

God I wish Piig would hit the damn cutoff man or at least get the ball down more, getting old...

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

WTF is going here ? come on Kershaw settle down SMH!!

 

[OutlawImmortal]

Kershaw's fastball wasn't hitting location. He just needs to settle down, we should score enough runs.

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

We got a troll on SI...this is troll hunting week for me time for me too put him down LOL!!!

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

SMH! Looks like the Dodgers have a hangover

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

Tough win but got it done Dodgers magic number is now 14

 

[Silas]

Kershaw was off the mark today, but gets the win. Makes up for those No Decisions when he was on his game and got no run support.

BP shaky today. Ned has done nothing effective to address it. VolQuez and Marmol does not constitute addressing the situation.

Dodgers will have their hands full next two games.

Dodgers now 12.5 ahead and Giants are 21 games back. What a lovely picture!

why do dodger fans hate the rockies so much? It's not like they have a bright future anyways.

What are you talking about? nobody here is hating or saying anything bad about the Rockies i was on SI & MLB.com no Dodger fan was posting anything bad about the Rockies...We don't really care about you guys. We only cant stand AZ fans & Giants no love lost their.

The only thing atleas't that i don't like is when we play at Coors Field that ball park likes to inure are players SMH! oh & i also don't like Dinger the stupid mascot from the Rockies always trying to jinx a pitcher behind home plate...dude looks like Barney the dinosaur

Other then that i really don't hate the Rockies

 

[CamBradyForPresident]

oh ok then. it seems like a lot of dodger fans hate coors field. hopefully the rox are able to steal a game in this series.

Nolasco looks very good out there...

Nolasco looks very good out there...

Hopefully Nolasco will keep it up. Even if he struggled I wouldn't hold it against him because of Coors field. Yesterday I expected Clayton to struggle as he typically struggles here and the elevation affected his pitches yesterday.

 

[Silas]

Clayton had a difficult time locating his pitches. Pitching is essentially about location. You can have great stuff, but if you don't locate your pitches, you'll get hammered. That's what happened to Clayton and it happens to everyone from time to time; even the great ones. I recall both Koufax and Marichal get knocked out in the 1st inning of a game once.

Clayton will be okay. I'd expect his next start to be a gem, but we'll have to wait and see.

Meanwhile, the SP staff overall (with the exception of Capuano) has been outstanding. If you have a chance of winning 4 out of every 5 games you play, you'll go a long way.

I just dislike when la plays in Coors Field personally because of the ballpark and the altitude. Im not even knocking the Rockies ballclub, I just dislike going to Coors field.
