Almost never here these days, but if he ever wants to come through DC, let me know.
Gnats gnibbling on Fryers 6-3 in bottom of ninth.
Trashtros already binned Snakes and, miraculously, Gnats have taken 3-2 lead over Fryers in face-off of mediocre starters.
The offer is good from me, too.
I’m always impressed with Jessica Mendoza. She is so solid she even makes Stephen Nelson tolerable.
I’ll let him know!
Great game!
Woo-HOO!!!
Dodgers win!
Back into first (tied with Philly).
We are here if he heads West!
Miggy pick!
Nice grab to prevent Miggy getting a hit.
Wow, great catch.
Hey, how’s Bereket doing?
I’m of two minds about games like this:
1. It is good to see them score a bunch of runs even if Ohtani is not producing.
2. I want to see Ohtani hit home runs and steal bases.
It must be good for him to know there are other ways to win, however. I also wonder if the internal and external pressure to get to 50 and 50 is slowing him down a little.
I think it must. Even if it is just a little bit – it must.
I’m in a posting frenzy because I don’t have grandchildren. Can you tell?
I'll have one at end of month.
Wreaks havoc on commenting but worth every minute!
We'll see…
Just curious. What do you mean when you say you will see?
That it will not hamper your commenting – or that it won’t be worth every minute?
No comment.
Barnes is not the accurate arm that Smith is.
We are using every arm, aren’t we?
Flaherty goes tomorrow, but it'll be 103°.
K!!!
Kwan K's only rarely.
Took a lot of pitches.
Gnats draw Fryers' blood, 6-3 final.
About time they lost!
Nice K!
Treinen!
One more out, Blake. And no more walks please.
The more relievers who are called upon, the more likely it is that one will get hit hard. Thus, though a five-run lead is great, I remain an apprehensive Dodgers fan. We need more runs.
I tend to agree, but same is true for them.
Agreed.
Weird hit. But it still counts, alas.
I'll give reluctant credit to someone who hits it where they ain't.
He perfectly placed that one.
Great pitch, Treinen!
Oh yeah. Mookie is good at baseball too.
MOOKIE!!!
Let’s keep the runs coming Shohei!
Gnats swarming over Fryers, 4-3 after six, but Webb-Steroids is probably done for the night.
Good job Wrobo
Guards are trying to scratch and claw their way back into this game.
You misspelled "Spiders" again.
I don’t know whether to laugh or cry at that response.
What would a Stampeder do?
Shohei gets another AB.
This is the kind of start we've been waiting for.
Yes!
Tonight's one of those once-in-a-lifetime moments where I wish the best for Logan Webb-Steroids.
Trashtros leading Snakes 5-3 after four. Do the "Oxy" patches on their uniform sleeves mean they're promoting opioids?
I had the same thought!!

Today in Dodgers History
September 7th
1903 A year before the completion of the first NYC subway line, the Brooklyn Superbas play their crosstown rivals in a two-stadium, same-day doubleheader. The first game played in Washington Park begins at 10:30 a.m. with 9,300 fans watching the visiting Giants win the opener, 6-4, and later that afternoon, in front of 23,623 patrons at the Polo Grounds in Manhattan, Brooklyn wins the second game, 3-0.
1916 The Giants defeat the Dodgers 4-1 to start their major league record 26-game winning streak. The 'Jints' start the span two games under .500, making up nine in the standings, but remain in fourth place during the entire run of victories.
1962 With four steals in a 10-1 loss to the Pirates, Dodger Maury Wills breaks the modern National League record for stolen bases in a season with his 82nd swipe. Cincinnati's Bob Bescher established the mark in 1911, playing left field with Cincinnati.
1964 At Connie Mack Stadium, a Labor Day crowd of 26,390 fans watches the first-place Phillies split a doubleheader with the Dodgers. The attendance for the twin bill brings the season's total to 1,224,172 patrons, breaking the all-time franchise home attendance record established by the Whiz Kids in 1950.
2001 At Busch Stadium, right-fielder Shawn Green breaks the Dodgers' record for homers in a season with his 44th home run, the first of his two dingers he hits off Dustin Hermanson in the team's 7-1 victory over the Cardinals. Duke Snider (1956) and Gary Sheffield (2000) shared the previous mark.
