Giants at Dodgers, 7:10 PM PDT, TV: NBCS BA, SPNLA
The visiting Giants send RHP Anthony DeSclafani (8-2, 2.77 ERA) to the Dodger Stadium mound to face the home team’s RHP Trevor Bauer (7-5, 2.57 ERA).
Today in Dodgers’ history:
- 1969 After ending an 11-game losing streak in their previous contest, the expansion Padres are the victims of a 19-0 shutout for the second time this season when Dodgers right-hander Don Drysdale equals the National League-record for the largest margin of victory in a shutout. L.A. will score more than half of their runs when they tally ten times in the third inning.
- 2000 The Rockies draw their 20 millionth fan to one ballpark faster than any other team in major league history. Taking less than six years, Colorado eclipses the Dodgers’ mark of taking nine years in two stadiums to reach the milestone.
- 2008 In Chavez Ravine, the Dodgers, without the benefit of a hit for the entire game, defeat the Angels, 1-0. The combined losing effort of Halo hurlers Jered Weaver and Jose Arredondo isn’t considered officially as a no-hitter because the home team didn’t have to bat in the ninth (a nitpick if I ever heard one).

MPUT
(OOPS)
NPUT
6 out of 9 innings lead off guy on (at least momentarily). Makes for a tense game.
This is when I really miss Vin, who was always so soothing. Steiner is simply irritating.
Against the Asterisks, the Orioles try to blow a five-run lead in the ninth, but they hang on 9-7.
Who are they playing?
You misspelled “whom.”
AJ is no CT3.
CP3 didn’t have a great night tonight.
CP3?
Basketball. Chris Paul of the Phoenix Suns. They lost to the Clippers.
I stopped following the NBA when the Supersonics left Seattle.
I’m sure they miss you.
Successful franchise that got ripped out of its home.
Not the first time, nor the last.
It was my home town team – first place I ever attended an NBA game.
They might come back. Like the Jets for me.
I should say – I was a fan of Shawn Kemp and the team during his era.
It looks like Greasylocks Crawford reloaded… https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/764fa2bf071d3203e9a2054c45432520730b52739807e16ca0c7374c8efc3379.png
Don’t forget to vote for the All-Star Starters. I couldn’t vote for Mookie unfortunately. Voted for all Dodgers except for him. Taylor is much more deserving. Castellanos and Winker are no brainers.
I won’t vote for any Astros cheaters.
I am still a bit concerned about how many homers our starters are giving up. At least most of them are solo shots. They don’t kill you.
Yippee!!

We’ve missed that.
Waiting till there was a deserving win. 😉
Now let’s head for first place
Well… that was impressive!
Dodgers win!!! Wow!
WOO-HOO!!!!
Down they go!
KENLEY!
The Poseur goes down!
Wow. Has the whole game been like this?
Yes. From like the 3 inning on I think.
Out!
TOOTBLAN!
Finally able to watch. Come
On KJ!
Make it quick, Kenley!
Tonight in Milwaukee, with the score tied 4-4 in the eighth, the Beerboys scored ten runs to slam the Cubbies.
Let’s get insurance for Kenley
This Blake is no “De Witt”
That’ll do!
Yesss
One more
Nervous here
More runs please Dodgers.
So, Víctor gets the job done!
Gulp.
It was hot again in British Bolivia. https://twitter.com/robsobs/status/1409632161028665349?s=20
Hernandez has been an angel.
Bellinger better than Duggar.
Light years.
Way to mess up the hits/HR ratio Lux! Lol
You’re welcome! https://twitter.com/McCoveyChron/status/1409716889136222214?s=20
3 hits. 3 HR’s.
Big Willie!
Sluggo!
Even Steiner got that one right!
Trevor creates his own drama.
Both on and off the field some would say.
Max Muncy, GG.
Posey is having a strong year – unfortunately…
This is his supernova year. Bright stars flare before they die out quickly.
Apt analogy – if true.
It’s an empirical observation.
Qualitative no doubt.
Regardless, he will still end up in the Hall of Fame I would guess.
Seems very likely.
Abanica, ¡y se poncha!
No ears, any mention of what DeSclafani’s ERA would be if he didn’t have to face the Dodgers?
It would be lower.
Meh, I need numbers!
I specialize in qualitative analysis.
By my calculation, instead of 2.91 it would be 1.46.
Does it get any better than this?
Max!!!!
No eyes, but Betts with “in play (runs)”!
Ditto Max!
¡Despídala con un beso!
Moookie!!!
2 game series within the division are strange.
Strike 3? Lol
Ring ’em up!
Giants announce: There’s a Fungus among us.
Meanwhile, in Gnatgnews, https://twitter.com/ProductiveOuts/status/1409613748424171523?s=20
Yes, quite a nitpick.
Weaver and Arredondo are no Bob Hendley…
