Last chance to nominate someone special in your life…
For those who have not yet heard, MLB and People Magazine have teamed up for the PEOPLE All-Stars Among Us program for the second year in a row. This Friday is the deadline and thousands of submissions are pouring in for everyday people who go above and beyond in their community.
Maybe they mentored disadvantaged children, cared for abandoned pets or started a community garden. You tell us! You can even nominate yourself.
A total of 30 everyday All-Stars (one representing each MLB team) will be honored at the 2010 MLB All-Star Game in Anaheim on July 13 and one will be featured in PEOPLE magazine.
Take a few minutes and think about the people in your life who make an impact in other people’s lives. You’ll be glad you did (and so will they!)
Inside the Dodgers 
All Dodger fans are special for putting up with Frank and Ned for all these years!!!
I am all for Bear :))
I nominate messagebear for “service to the community” for continuing to support Frank selling the team.
I second that nomination!
LOL tru! The last homestand really put us Dodger fans thru some tough tests. I texted back to the number flashed on the Diamond vision “Charlie Haeger is hindering the enjoyment of the game.” In the sport sectionof the LA Times, Morning Briefing (last paragraph), I noticed someone else texted the same thing.

I think it was “action beyond the call of duty” that had Jaime fired by Frank.
I hope edwin jackson doesn’t have anything to prove to the Dodgers tonight. Our first sweep would be sweet
Since 2005, I’ve been attending road trips to San Diego and four of those years I’ve been part of a group. This is the first year that the Padres are saying “nothing with Dodgers in the name when it flashes on the screen” Thi is BS. I am part of a group of 60 and I know the Dodgers Booster club will have a group of 150 there.
Also they are giving out “Beat LA” t-shirts Saturday. Last year it was “Beat LA” towels. I know that like last year, there will be Dodger fans “altering” the words.
Kershaw should be pitching Saturday and Billz on Sunday.

Is Torre managing the bullpen in Washington to? There this guy the Yankees gave up and he’s 7-1. He just picked up the win today but however that guy pitch last night after he blew the game and gave up 3 runs on 4 hits in 1/3 of an inning. Clippard has 5 blown saves on the year but honestly it should be 2. In those 5 blown saves he’s 4-1.
If you look at the blown save categories they probably think Clippard can’t keep a lead but when you have a 1 run lead and the starter give up 2 hits and a walk and get taken out you’re going to get screw. If you get a dp at home and 1st and than get another grounded that one on the infielder booted it for an error than the scored would be tied and than you get a cheap blown save that wasn’t really you fault because you did your job and the fielder just blew it. There was time when Gagne had to pitch more than 1 inning and you just had a bad feeling Gagne streak was going to end soon. I would hate to have something like that happen to him. I don’t like when closer have to come into the 8th innings and have to get 4 outs.
The Cubs has 5 in the top 10 in ba and they?re holding the 5th and 8th spots. Loney in between 2 Cubs players and ranked 9th. Manny would need a lot more PA to be in the top 10. Freeze and Pujols has ranked 11 and 12. lol NL Central is well represent.

From “Chat with Tony Jackson” on ESPNLosAngeles.com
.
http://espn.go.com/losangeles/chat/_/id/32339
.
“Earl, I have it on good authority (NOT from Colletti, from others) that if anything, Ned UNDERSTATED the issues with Kemp. This kid is really full of himself, to the point that it is becoming an issue in the clubhouse. I’m not saying they WILL trade him. I still think there is less than a 50-percent chance that they will. I’m just saying that if they do trade one of their core young players, he probably will be the one, not only because of these issues but also because he would have the most value.
”
Wow, Revolt, very interesting reading. I had to read all of the questions for Tony.
Wow Hoffman just look terrible this year.
Go figure all those runs that the Brewers had against us they should had used them on the Braves.
lol Philles stealing signs. I wonder what Phan have to say about this one?
http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/blog/big_league_stew/post/Rockies-thrust-Phillies-into-a-new-controversy-o;_ylt=Ajwmxy_lsYP3xW_QIti.m6cRvLYF?urn=mlb,240521

Phillies made this one to and that would hurt if they have to move.
Personally, regarding whatever Kemp is supposed to be, I’ll reserve judgement for a while. Mainly because I don’t trust the media to tell the truth. They usually spend most of their time sucking up. Did you notice that there was not one critical word about McCourt, Colletti, Mannion, Torre, Honeycutt? Lots of bad stuff about Kemp though. Even Kershaw and Billingsley were slammed for being too stubborn to take suggestions.
The way that Q & A session reads, Jackson’s “sources” are a couple of coaches that he is pals with. And no one on that coaching staff has been too impressive to me.
Hi Everybody
Great game last night everything went our way and it looks like we found ourselves a pitcher.
The only thing left to do against one of our former pitchers is to sweep.
GO KURODA.
I agree with your assessment, Dodgereric. I wasn’t thinking that way when I first read it but, now, what you say makes a lot of sense.
I felt like an idiot who’s Mannion?
Dennis Mannion is the – I’m guessing – the CEO?? He reminds me of that bean-counter that the Black Widow Georgia Frontandrearie hired to ruin the LA Rams.
Yep, CEO. It doesn’t say it here, but I’m thinking he is Jamie’s replacement:
http://losangeles.dodgers.mlb.com/news/press_releases/press_release.jsp?ymd=20071107&content_id=2295008&vkey=pr_la&fext=.jsp&c_id=la
Oh ok
Blake must had made a good catch in the stand and Jackson was awarded 2nd bases for that.
So the Mtes first baseman Ike Davis has nothing on our third base Casey Blake.
That s/b Mets.
Kuroda looked a little wild to the first couple of hitters, but now he’s really dealing. Those were some nasty strikes he just threw.
ANDRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
‘DRE what else to say..
Alright DRE!!! He puts another one away!!! The K & E boys strike again!!
IIIIIIII…………… MISSED IT!!!! I just walked in from work/school, I knew Andre was up to bat because tru had told me, and I knew the moment my phone went nuts, Andre did it again!!!! Thank goodness for highlight videos :))
Lets do it Manny!
I posted in real time . . . . I don’t get it.
.
All I can say is that’s what they get for walking ‘Dre to get to Manny – WOW!!
Kuroda was hit hard in the 4th.
WooHoo!!! Andre has truely reached the pinnacle. Intentionally walked to get to Manny. Wow!!! Way to mak’em pay Manny!!! Hey Collie, I also felt a bit sad for Edwin. He was a victom of the crappy Arizona bullpen in this case.
Time warped again. Sigh!!!
Way to go Matt….rbi for you!
Good Job Jamie and Matt!!!!!
NICE GOING MATT.
Alright MATTY!!!!! Great At Bat!!
I guess we can’t expect a homerun everytime Dre comes up to bat. LOL!!!!!
I hope Kuroda settles down this inning.
Look like Manny had a rare k’s and he was like something 13/3 in bb/k ratio before the game.
lol Carroll is a walking machine as of lately.
I’ll take that back his last walk was May 5 until tonight
Come on Matty! Blow it open here!!
We need to get in the dback bullpen the scored is too close lol.
Well, what do you know………………….Andre gets the IBB to get to Manny. Alright Andre!!!!!!!
Ouch Kemp
Come on Manny!!!!!!!!
Holy Crap they ibb Ethier they scare biw
YAY, MANNY!!!!!!!!!
M A N N Y
Alright Manny!!!!!!!!!! Do that to Andre and Manny comes back to bite the snakes in the asssss!!!
Holy Crap they ibb Ethier they scare now
I’m disappointed that it wasn’t a GS but this place is awesome. You have to really give it a drive.
It’s rare I feel sorry for the other teams pitcher but watching Jackson walk realllllly slowly off the field I felt sorry for him.
Holy crap we produced with the bases loaded we was hitting around .210+
All right Jonathan!
We was the 6th worst team with the bases loaded so we was dued. It not hard to figure those categories out. The 5 is hits 2 GS homeruns and so on.
Los Angeles Dodgers .217 30 5 2 1 0 23 0 .300 .522
Wow Manny was like 1/10 coming into the game vs Jackson to.
YAY —– 4 IN A ROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Collie – I watched the dbacks post game show after the game. The manager just was beside himself saying how pathetic the bullpen wa last night and has been. So, I can only imagine what tonight’s conversation will be like.
YAY!!!!!
Thank you Manny!!! What a lineup!!!!!
Would this be the night that Torre let Kuroda get the CG if Ryal doesn’t PH and we all know what happen?
Let’s kill that bullpen again tonight.
Well 1 for 12 since his 2nd career hit off of Jackson.
I do remember reading this on here earlier in the week, but I thought you were all joking. Ortiz is starting on Friday? Oh boy!!!
5-2 Padres hard to root for the Giants at this points but I’d rather we sweep the dback and it look good and the Padres sweep them and we sweep the Padres.
I am with you on that Shad. I rather have the gnats get swept and catch up to them first.
I wish we was joking Nelly but it’s truth.
Oh since we have a day off no CG tonight and let’s see if he can finish the 8th.
The 4th time KURODA has pitched at least 7 innings… 7.1.
Another great outing by Kuroda!!!
Has anyone seen bpb3 aka Crash?
Nelly — while watching the last 2 games before tonight I felt like the D-Backs were playing the way we played earlier in the season (Basically up to last week). They made errors, didn’t execute and their bully was horrible. The D-Backs are a weird team. They seem like they have some really great players and good talent but they just aren’t consistent. That and they strike out so much.
.
However the game isn’t over yet.
.
We need the bully to pull through here tonight.
.
As I write this Belly walks a batter. You’re up by 4 don’t put runners on dang it!!
Looks like a good move here bringing in Kuo, Beli didn’t look to good.
So we’ve had some good starting pitching the last few days! Who thinks that will continue Friday night?
i have never understandf how you bring in a new pitcher and he walk the first guy
Than another pitcher hit the first guy.
That’s rare for Kuo.
i have never understandf how you bring in a new pitcher and he walk the first guy
By sellthetm on May 12, 2010 10:25 PM
Shad — Neither have I!
So, if our bullpen manages to screw this up, will Joe be just as candid as Hinch last night and tell the media our bullpen was pathetic tonight.
Whew!!!!!!
WHEW KUO was wild.
I’m giving Kuo a break there no excuses for bring in a Belisario if he was that cold and is not like he pitch last night. Belisario thrown 5 pitches 1 strike hmm. I’m glad to see Ryal make the last out before he hurt Kuroda again.
I’m having a feeling the dback bullpen going to give us no run.
I knew we score too many runs last night lol.
I miss 1 2 3 innings from Broxton and I hope he’s not turning into Blownitez. I miss that former Giants Benitez.
Oh come on dp now.
It sure would be nice if Brox could put his foot down here and shut them down. Don’t let them off the ropes Brox!! This is a game that if we win could really help us for the season and put a dent in theirs.
Bring on the Madres!!!!
Alright Brox!!!!!!!!!! Scary, but you did it!!!!!! Thank you Andre, Jamie, Matt and Manny for getting the hits and Hiroki, Kuo and Brox for finishing the dbacks off!!!
Good game tonight. First sweep is always sweet 🙂
…………not to mention winning 4 games in a row for the first time too 🙂
Oh, absolutely, Nelly! And let’s tack a few more on in SD, too.
Now we need to sweep the Padres.
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/dodgers/2010/05/dodgers-are-reportedly-calling-around-for-are-you-ready-starting-pitching.html
See what you did Beliasario? You don’t get anything from Nelly for walking the 1st guy lol.
hmmmmm Colllie! Very interesting indeed!!!
Well, he would have if Joe had kept him in longer than two batters – LOL!!!!
I’m thinking Kemp might be seeing a new jersey soon.
.
I wouldn’t be happy with that. Unless Lee was signed to an extension. Manny for him would be ok.
.
I really hope they can keep the core together. I just don’t want to see anyone traded for someone like Arroyo or Harang…
I think he was trying but when you thrown 5 pitches when 1 of them strike that’s going to be problem lol.
There was a rumor of Kemp for Fisher/Harang I think I posted that 2 days ago.
I am so sick of all this Kemp bashing. Is it any wonder players won’t talk to the jock-sniffing media? Unless we get an attributed, non-anonymous, non-gutless quote, Tony Jackson should keep his pie hole shut about his “good authority.” It’s all crap…innuendo…gossip. Last time I checked Kobe had a pretty big freaking ego. I don’t especially like Kobe but so what? Non story, even if he or Kemp DOES have an inflated sense of self. If I’m facing Tim Lincecum, I’d sure as hell better think I’m a pretty damn good player if I’m going to succeed. Can I vomit now? Long after Ned Colletti (talk about ego!) and his ilk have gone far, far away, Matt Kemp will still be bashing. I only hope the cowardly cancers in the front office don’t cause Kemp to do that bashing in NY and/or Ethier in AZ.
Yep Shad, and that is why I didn’t list him as a contributor to tonight’s win. I figure you at least have to get one guy out.
Collie – it would not be good to see any of the outfielders go at this point. We shouldn’t have to be back peddling now to come up with starting pitching. Frank and Ned have known we needed quality pitching since the post season last year, and quite possibly the season before that. Once again, Frank was too busy or too broke to worry about that with all the issues involving his divorce and other non-Dodger events he seems to be more passionate about at the moment.
Also, do you know that Andre is leading the entire MLB in Batting Average, RBIs and SLG%, and he will at least be tied for 2nd in HRs with his 11th (depends on if any of the 5 tied with him hit one tonight too).
lol I wish Loney had Konerko homerun total with 13.
Wow what a series between the Flyers and Bruins. The Bruins were up 3-0 and now tied 3-3. Blackhawks and Sharks going to be a good series.
Stadium Chase Field, Phoenix, AZ

Ethier on pace to scored 125 runs, 235 hits, 50 dbl, 55 homeruns, 185 rbi, 60 walks and so on.
Teamed up with Ethier, Manny’s got a similar situation to the one in Boston. Pick your poison.
Hello, everybody. No game today so, what can we do for fun?
Well, trublu, for fun, I got to thinking about Ned:
“Ned is a term applied to certain people in Scotland, akin to the term chav in England. The stereotypical view of a ned is a white adolescent male of working class background, who wear brand names, gold jewelry, and engage in hooliganism, petty criminality, loutish behavior, fighting, underage drinking and smoking or general anti-social behavior. They are often assumed to be unemployed.”
Wow, works for me….
Billboard:
“Los(e) frank”
Ok we swept the snakes, I appreciate that, but I realize that the padres are real and we play 6 times real soon. We come away winning those series then perhaps we have turned the corner. That means hitting, bullpen, starting pitching, fielding all need to be settled, hey not perfect but just consistently good.
Regarding Matt kemp comments by tony jackson, where there is smoke perhaps it is more than a BBQ, perhaps his new GF has filled his head, regardless, one reason JT was hired was to bring the clubhouse chemistry together (remember Grady little), So if kemp is getting prima donna on us, the team, then a chat is in order, when he plays like willie mays, then he won’t need the chat, because I trust is demeanor will be like Mays. Team Chemistry is so important to it success. This year has had enough obstacles in the way of success we don’t need one on the field.
Many moons ago Garvey seemed to alienate his teammates with his ego, and Sutton ended up calling him on it, in the shower, of all places. A few punches were thrown and it didn’t hinder championship runs. What I despise is the “leaking” of all the gossip and innuendo to the media. Who the hell is running the show? Ned? Frank?…well, certainly not Frank, he’s completely checked out to Divorce Court. I can’t EVER remember this kind of crap under Campanis or Claire. Even if any of this has a shred of truth, an organization needs to be professional enough to keep this stuff in the clubhouse, not in some hack writer’s column.
Kahli- Amen! The media has completely changed since those days, but I agree talking to the media is dangerous. Carlton, koufax and even Manny knows that now. Yea a good team intervention, if warranted, might help. I remember bonds and kent getting in to it in 2001, a struggling team went to the series that year. I like kemp. I hope he likes the dodgers, but I can understand where he wouldn’t, in fact, that might be pervasive through out the field mangement. You think JT wants to manage a team that wont go get the pointed piece he needs to go to the WS?
Whoops that was 2002 when that bonds /kent altercation took place.
Thanks for TJ’s link. I usually reads his column but had not had a chance to read it before. I was surprised to read what is said about Kemp. The times that I’ve seen Kemp, he has been nice and friendly to the fans. But I’ve seen this patttern before where the players are friendly with the fans but not with the media. As long as they contribute on the field, I am OK.
As I mentioned before I will be in San Diego for Sat and SUn games. KCAL is doing the game.
Any ideas on a sign that spells

Kershaw is starting tht game against Correia. Speaking of Correia, my condolences to the Correa family. Kevin Correia’s brother fell off a cliff while hiking with his friends, and died.
.
Has anyone received the next Dodger magazine where Kemp is on the cover? It was at the last homestand but I still do not get it in the mail. I ran into Josh last Saturday and he told me and showed me that I am in the magazine.
thanks
Emma
http://crzblue.mlblogs.com
You can bet your Ned bobble head that Torre is NOT happy. That’s why the “gossip” machine has him leery of signing any kind of extension.
Emma: How about:
.
Kemp
Casey
Andre
Loney
DF1775R,
thanks! I was thinking of that, only that I put Clayton instead of Casey.
I haven’t received my magazine yet either. I did get the Yearbook but not the one with matt on the cover.
Clayton is even better, Emma! Especially since’s he’s pitching that game!
Meanwhile, I’m still in a revolutionary mode, unless somehow Ramon Ortiz puts in a credible performance as our #5 starter tomorrow.
Wow, Gnats swept at home on a one-hitter. Hope the Pods got winning out of their system. Must be very quiet in the land by the Bay.

Kahli: Carpetbaggers = Frank + Jamie + Ned
.
Tru: More to the point! I like it!
Kahli, the Tony Jackson chat piece bothered me as well. Clearly, reporters are supposed to check their sources but since they don’t have to reveal them (and in reality probably cannot reveal them for obvious reasons), we are left with unnamed sources not only in the sports world but beyond. But let’s ask a question: does Jackson have anything to gain by revealing this information? He specifically eliminated Ned as the source although I believe that can be questioned as well. After all, he wants access to Ned and he certainly won’t get it if he “rats” Ned out. He will never name any of his sources for the same reason.
I think I understand your objection: does knowing this make any difference to us, the fans? Has anyone mentioned this before about Kemp? As others have said, he seems to treat the fans o.k. We don’t know for sure how he treats his teammates but as fans, all we care about it what happens on the field. Maybe he does not have much use for the media. After all, how would any of us like dealing with the likes of T.J. Simers whose only goal is to get under the skin of his subject, or with other media types whose best question is, “what pitch did you hit for that game winning home run”, or “what was your mindset when you went to the plate with the winning run on second base”? It takes a certain maturity to deal with this stuff and maybe Matt does not have that maturity. Does that make him a bad teammate? There are some things we are just not meant to know.
LOL! Tru and Khali. I had to cover my mouth as I am still at work.
If Ortiz bomb he should be gone but knowing Ned he won’t do it and might keep him for the rest of this month. The Giants have to played the Padres again on the 17th.
Wow that Ortiz post right on the time and that was my 2nd post but that other post was like 30 mins late.
The Giants should’ve been sweep in back to back series they got lucky to steal 1 game in NY
Good evening ITD boys and girls!
I know, I know. It’s been a long time! Like anything else, I can’t stay too long. But hey, did anyone know that they can buy the REAL Field of Dreams???

Nice to see Jim Campanis and one of the news reporter on ch 9 going to the hospital. Since I don’t know Jim Campanis as much as you guys do maybe you guys can explain him to me.

This is a little something I put on my FB page. I think I ticked off one of my Giant friends…

Kung Fu Panda has become the Yoga Koala – Don’t worry Panda fans … Houston is coming to town!
For the Ethieraholics who can’t get enough reading about Everyday Dre, Captain Clutch, Andre the Giant killer, etc., etc., etc., (he has so many names now, it’s just crazy!!) , another article from the homepage.
http://losangeles.dodgers.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20100513&content_id=10022060&vkey=news_la&fext=.jsp&c_id=la
Yes, I think you did make a few gnat fans upset with that comment. My hubby said his hitting flat out sucks lately.
USA Today………….
If Ethier gets a single, he wants a double. If he doubles, he believes he should have homered. A line-drive out is the same to him as a weak popup.
“He’s never satisfied,” said Dodgers hitting coach Don Mattingly. “He gets so mad, so emotional, when he doesn’t get a hit. He could square up a ball perfectly, and hit a line drive, but he’ll be mad because he made an out. To him, he has to be perfect.
“But with that swing, there’s not a pitcher in game he can’t hit. Nobody.”

lol I guess not. I’m just waiting for Molina to come down to earth so Sandoval could hit again lol.
As of this morning, Andre is still leading the NL in all three Triple Crown categories.
.
When I first started paying attention to baseball as a kid, Frank Robinson won the Triple Crown. Then, the next year, Carl Yastremski won the Triple Crown. The year after that, I was like, hey, how come there is no Triple Crown winner??
.
Maybe this is the year.
Yet another bit of media hype about Every Day Dre!

Stupid time warp!
Shad, you asked about Jim Campanis. Pretty much everything about him is on that Wikipedia page. As you can see, he had a limited pro career and it is a bid sad that his claim to fame is being traded by his father. I am sure there are a lot of Dads out there that would like to be able to trade their sons, lol.
with furcal coming back wouldnt it be nice if GA got a DFA? just a with and a thought…
with furcal coming back wouldnt it be nice if GA got a DFA? just a wish and a thought…
How many runs are needed to offset Ramon Ortiz starting? Ten? Twelve? Fifteen? Twenty-one?
Stupid Stan Conte – Why say Furcal is coming back when he’s not ready?
Hi Everyone!
I need a break! I’ve been so busy at work trying to get stuff done but is almost quitting time (5) and I thought Josh would have a new thread.
Jim Campanis works for the Dodgers. I took a picture with his W.S. ring last year. Ahhh, that was the first time I tried one of those rings. Jim was one of our coaches last year during the Women Baseball clinic. Wonder if we will have another one this year. I know now the group is called “Women in Blue”
.
Have a great weekend everyone and GO DODGERS!
I can’t wait to be at Petco Park tomorrow and wooof wooof for the Dodgers!

Enjoy the game everyone………..
Revolt ~ I’d say at least 10 runs will be needed tonight 🙂
I think ortiz is gonna surprise us tonight… going 5 while only giving up 2-3… dodgers win 7-4
CRAP!!!
Hello Everybody
BIG GAME.
This Padre lineup looks scary but we faced them all before -no unfamiliar faces.
Ramon Ortiz, Torre’s choice over Monasterios, I don’t know.
I like to see Kemp hit one out, the spell, to me, is unbearable.
No Furcal yet, but Jamie is holding his own.
Got to keep the streak alive….Our streak.
GO DODGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Let’s score this time!
Watching the Dodgers play in Petco is torture. It’s like watching a zebra eaten alive by ants.
Damn that was lousy. We had him on the ropes and was only able to get one run.
Nice thrown out stealing by MARTIN and BLAKE, it save a run too.
Well at least the Padre will forget about Loney’s foul ball double.
Are you sure he said that? Just because they said he was ready there is no need to rush Furcal back and we still suck with the bases loaded.
Yep lbirken but knowing me I was just hoping there was much more than that.
Way to go Manny!
WAYTA GO MANNY.
That’s work 4 singles for a runs.
I don’t like that Loney
Look like it was Ely bday yesterday so Happy Belated 24th bday Ely.
How long are they going to keep Ortiz in there?
WAY TO GO DRE!!!!! HOT, HOT, HOT!!!!!
ANDRE’ Strikes again.
lol when do we played the Astros?
-B. Molina walked, A. Torres scored on wild pitch
– N. Schierholtz singled to first, B. Molina scored, J. Uribe to third
– J. Uribe scored, N. Schierholtz to second on wild pitch
Interested scoring for the Giants but Molina scored from 2nd bases with singled by Nate.
Actually Nate singled to first.
The Astros can’t be this bad they swept the Cards of all teams.
NOT GOOD…..FINALLY, ORTIZ OUT OF THERE!!!!!
Not much of a surprise Ramon failed to go 5, now heeeere’s George.
What no Weaver geez?
I wish it were heeer’s Johnny!
Sherrell did a good job.
To bad the led off walk hurt.
Should had did that with the bases loaded Blake with 1 out.

I didn’t see emma comment but I bet you had a very good time to.
Sherrill only had 7 pitches in that innings and I would love to see him pitch another inning.
Good evening all! Glad to see the boys are hanging in there, even though down one. Hopefully we can get back even and squeak this out.
I guess it was too much to ask for should’ve try to get 2 innings from Weaver and should’ve double switch with Carroll.
WAY TO GO RUSSY AND MATTY!!!!!!
Matty!!!!!!
And the DROUGHT ENDS.
About time Kemp
I still can’t believe Torre took out Weaver and bring in Sherrill in that game when it was still 4-1 and it ended up as a blowout.
I notice old called Kemp homerun.
Come on Belli….a 1,2,3 inning!
Tony Gwynn Jr. almost took that HR away from Kemp. It deflected off his glove on the other side of the fence. He was so mad he punched the wall causing almost as much shaking as the earthquake we had a little over an hour ago nearby.
Dang that pesky Ex Angels/Cards.
I hope KUO can shut down Adrien.
Come on Kuo
Brian,
We had an earthquake? I was at a bar at Little Tokyo and then I took the Gold line for one stop then a bus to take to where I leave my car. I am at home now but I did not feel a thing. lol.
Nice job Kuo!
KUO>>>>YES.
Nice job Kuo!!!
I wish we could’ve save Kuo for the 8th. If some how it get to his spot which is 5th coming up Torre should let him hit.
Gonzalez made Kuo work with those 9 pitches 6 strikes.
Emma,
The earthquake was at 8:19 and was just a jolt that lasted less than a second. It was centered near Port Hueneme about 15km from my house.

Sigh
Rookie running mistake. It’s nice to be aggressive but it hurts when it ends the inning. Live and learn Dewitt.
Excellent job, Kuo!
O.K. KUO
Very nice work Kuo, you can have the rest of the night off! 🙂
I think he did that on purpose surely I don’t want to see Kuo pitch to 1 batter what a waste and Troncoso has been overused already and knowing Torre he probably would had GA up to bat.
Speaking of the Devil let’s see what GA do this AB’s?
Well he got on with Gonzalez error and his batting average would still drop.
Make them pay Manny!!!
That’s 2 in a rows that Kemp didn’t overslided. Wow make them pay Manny I knew that was going ibb Ethier.
Come on JLo!!!!
Kemp took the the bat out of Ethier’s hands.
Com’on BIG JON.
Let’s go Jon, let’s turn out the lights and go home!
Oh great I’m watching the news 32and53 was right that was a gift homerun to Kemp.
What’s Johnny say?
WOO-HOO………….A NICE WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FU’Q Y’alll!!!!
.
Boy, I wouldn’t want to be Gwynn with a 98 mph fastball coming at my chin.
B I G W I N
Alright, back over .500, picked up a game in the division. Woo hoo!
I surely hope our bullpen is back.
To bad those Giants won.
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night! Maybe see you tomorrow!
best win of the year so far. imagine if the same standings were in august. instead of 6 back it’s 4..come from behind with solid bullpen action. me likey other than loney crapping all overhimself it was solid
Oh man they just shown Ortiz bunting with the bases loaded and that was awful.
Wow what a comeback for the Flyers I thought they was going to get eliminated.
