Phillies at Dodgers, 7:10 PM PDT, TV: MLBN (out-of-market only), NBCSP, SPNLA
The visitors send RHP Spencer Howard (0-1, 4.61 ERA) out to face the Dodgers’ RHP Tony Gonsolin (0-0, 5.40 ERA). Howard has a 2.89 ERA in 9 1/3 innings as a starter this season, while Gonsolin will be making just his second start of the year; his first didn’t go all that well, as he gave up five walks and two hits in just 1 2/3 innings last week against the Pirates.
This date in Dodgers’ history:
- 2003 After being activated from the disabled list by the Dodgers, first baseman Fred McGriff bats cleanup and goes 2-for-4 in his return against the Padres. It was the Crime Dog’s first trip to the DL during his 18-year career.
- 2010 After just seven days in the major leagues, Stephen Strasburg is named National League Player of the Week. The Nationals’ right-handed flamethrower starts his career 2-0 with 22 strikeouts, second only to Karl Spooner, who fanned five more batters in his first two major league starts with the Dodgers in 1954.
Lineup when available.
Yippee!
Hi all. bBabysittkng grandkids again and just got everybody tucked away. We can still win this one, yes?
Sure.
Yes we can!
If the Rox can almost blank the Pads at Coors…
Kudos to the pen. Great job. Really hoping Gonzo can find his groove.
Coming back from a shoulder injury may not be an overnight process.
Woo-HOO!!!
That was a charmed – and charming – win.
A bit more relaxing than yesterday.
Save number 328 for Jansen. He passes Fernando Rodney and is 17th all time. He is one behind Francisco Cordero for 16th.
Dodgers win!
Fine futuring!
Kenley after all.
I don’t care if he gets K’s, so long as he gets out.
OK, Kenley, make it quick!
So far 2 quick outs.
JT!!
Here comes Jansen.
Driving home now. Hopefully to woo and hoo when I get there…
Nelson’s looking pretty sharp.
Now Albert steals second…
Falter is a pun waiting to happen.
Harper just missed that…
Blame the ball?
Charmed!
Okay Victor. That’s enough of that.
Pen juggling. Blake for two tonight?
Kenley unlikely after last night.
Assuming Victor can close out this inning and pitch another.
Forgot that Nelson is back.
Howard heist the rosin bag as he leaves the mound.
¿La robó?
Qu’est que c’est?
Mach deine große Klappe zu, es zieht!
Ti igrash koe nosarog!
Help! Translate!
Exactly!
I’m sorry I don’t understand Spanish… so I thought maybe WBB could converse with me in French…
Não falo não…
Yes!!!
CT3 bomb!
CT3!!!
Will!!!
Let’s keep the good times rolling Beaty.
Sluggo!
Will Smith!!
Dodgers better win tonight considering how many breaks the umps have been giving them.
Dodgers living on the edge! Phew!
Taylor’s an elite 2B but…
Goose living a charmed life so far. Let’s see if Price can strand them.
Charming!
Price check time.
Rox hang on to beat the Pads 3-2 in Denver.
Sweet!
Thank you ump.
The inconsistency is maddening.
Yeah. Why can’t the umps consistently make calls that favour the Dodgers?
Like that!
Missing Belli, Max and Seags is a fair bit of fire power out of the lineup.
Seems to have found his footing, but guess they won’t let him get for long
Tightrope walking.
Zach not all that versatile it seems.
Missing Bellinger.
Mientras tanto, en México… https://twitter.com/Jomboy_/status/1404623792014512130?s=20
Qu’est que c’est?
Was sagst du?
The Catman needs to sharpen his claws a bit.
He needs a Rottweiler.
Pulled out his nail file and got it done.
Jean is a well-travelled player.
Mookie woulda had that, and turned it into a DP.
Let’s go Goose!
Go Dodgers. Gotta take care of business against the Phils. Not likely to get much help from the D’Backs and Rocks.
The Snakes are overdue, and the Gnats scored just three runs in four games in DC. Have confidence! Meanwhile, Rox have taken a 1-0 lead over the Pads in Denver.
