  1. No one awakened me cfrim my nap Does that mean that we didg tie or win?

    • I am a bit surprised Doc did not pinch hit Barnes for Will Smith and give him the rest so he could play all three games against Philly.

  2. Well, going to bow out to watch Uruguay in the Copa America (soccer).

    • I've gone to one soccer game in my life, in Sweden. The best thing about it was the Kanelbullar at halftime.

    • Oh wait, it’s actually Messi and the Argies tonight against Canada.

  3. I'm tired. It's hot. It's 0-3. Time for a nap. Wake me when we tie the game or take the lead.

  4. I would love to get three back here, but not having a lot of confidence about that. Especially with Biggio up first. Prove me wrong, Biggio!

    • I fear he's a hopeless case. A stab in the dark that failed to make contact with the target.

  5. What's the over/under on how many hits Lux and Biggio will combine for today? I'd put it at 1.5.

  6. Dodgers place Glasnow on the IL with back problems. He will miss the All-Star game. That makes 2 Dodgers who will miss the game with injuries, Betts and Glasnow.

    They should select Stone to replace him.

  8. Today in Dodgers History
    July 9th

    1956 After Commissioner Ford Frick shares his belief that hurlers lack support in the MVP voting, the BBWAA, by a narrow margin of 14-12, votes to establish the Cy Young Award to honor the major leagues' most outstanding pitcher. The first recipient of the Cy Young Award will be Dodger Don Newcombe, ironically the winner of the Most Valuable Player Award.

    1996 Mike Piazza, named the All-Star Game's MVP, hits a moon shot into the upper deck at Philadelphia's Veterans Stadium. The Dodger backstop also strokes an RBI double, helping the National League beat the AL, 6-0.
