Lotsa Dodger fans in board BART, but I got off the stop before
Rockies win.
Stone gets the loss that Kelly deserves.
C'est La Vie.
Well rats. But at least we showed a pulse!
Ah well. I still love this team.
SHOHEI!!!
You never know!
Just might get lucky and the Rocks will beat the Puds tonight. Leading 5-2, bottom 8th.
Three outs to make four runs.
Need a spark Dodgers. Check that. Need to go right to a fire now.
Not sure my comments are posting.
I see you.
I see this one.
Dodgers in first place but apparently boring us.
Stone comes out with a runner on base and understands the drill. His runner will score via home run.
sigh The slide south continues.
What good is Kiermaier if he doesn't catch those balls.
Stoner is losing it
¡Viernes de miércoles!
Well Rats!!
Teouttahere.
Bobby Miller scratched from his start tonight because of a strained abductor muscle.
At the rate he’s going this might just end his year.
Not looking good for him or Buehler.
Mookie Betts, Max Muncy, Tommy Edman and Miguel Rojas will face live pitching in a simulated game at Dodger Stadium on Thursday per Dave Roberts. Things appear to be progressing well, and Muncy has been swinging for a few days now.
Today is the second anniversary of Vin Scully's passing.
I loved Vin, but I hate euphemisms.
I could not care less about how you feel about euphemisms.
So what the heck is "¡Miércoies" if not a euphemism?
gnats, barves, …
Seems like a lot longer.
I feel the same way. Perhaps it is because he retired after the 2016 season.
That must be it.

Except for those of us who live in Oakland or nearby, today is MLBTV's free game of the day. I'll be watching with a friend who's an A's fan and has an expensive blackout-free streaming package.
Today in Dodgers History
August 2nd
1938 Bright yellow baseballs designed by Frederick Rah, who believes the visibility of the dandelion-hue sphere will help players avoid getting hit by a pitch, are used in the first game of a doubleheader. The one-game experiment draws mixed reactions, and the Dodgers complete their sweep of the twin bill from the Cardinals, 6-2 and 9-3, using the traditional white ball in the nightcap.
1982 During a ceremony held in Cooperstown, NY, the United States Postal Service unveils a 20-cent stamp commemorating baseball great Jackie Robinson as part of its annual Black Heritage series. The Dodger infielder becomes the first individual baseball player depicted on a U.S postage stamp.

2002 Commissioner Bud Selig fines Jim Bowden for the comments the Reds general manager made to reporters before yesterday's contest against the Dodgers when he compared a baseball strike to the terrorist attacks of September 11th. Quickly realizing such an analogy was inappropriate and insensitive, the Cincinnati GM apologizes after the game.
2008 In the first game after the Manny Ramirez trade to the Dodgers, the Fenway Faithful enthusiastically welcome Jason Bay, the player replacing the Boston icon. The former Pirates outfielder doesn't disappoint, tripling and scoring the winning run in the 12th inning of the Red Sox's 2-1 victory over the A's.
