Dodgers at Phillies, 3:10 PM PDT, TV: NBCSP, SPNLA
RHP Mitch White (1-0, 4.82 ERA) makes his first start of the 2022 season for the Dodgers. He’ll be opposed by the Phillies’ RHP Aaron Nola (1-4, 3.64 ERA). White has appeared in one game since coming off the Covid-19 IL, where he’d been since April 30. Nola went seven innings against the Dodgers last Sunday; he gave up two runs on four hits and got no decision.
Today in Dodgers’ history:
- 1927 For the second consecutive day, an umpire at Ebbets Field is the target of fan abuse. Arbiter Frank Wilson needs a police escort after the Robins (Dodgers) drop a twin bill to the Cubs.
- 1952 The Dodgers score a major league record fifteen first-inning runs en route to a 19-1 rout over the Reds at Ebbets Field. After Ewell Blackwell retires the first batter, the next 19 Brooklyn batters reached base (10 hits, 7 walks, and 2 HBP), including Pee Wee Reese getting to first base three times during the frame.
- 1963 Jim Maloney ties a major league record shared by Max Surkont (1953 Braves) and Johnny Podres (1962 Dodgers) when he strikes out eight consecutive batters, beginning with the last out in the first inning, in the Reds’ 2-0 victory over Milwaukee at County Stadium. The Cincinnati right-hander also equals the franchise mark with 16 strikeouts in one game, established by Noodles Hahn in 1901.
- 2000 Major League Baseball has its first six grand-slam day less than one year after establishing the mark with five, with Garret Anderson (Angels), J.T. Snow (Giants), Brian Hunter (Phillies), Jason Giambi (A’s), and Adrian Beltre and Shawn Green (Dodgers) all contributing to the record. The NL also set a league record, blasting four of the six base-loaded homers.

Yippee!
Ballgame!!
Woo-HOO!!!!
Barnes will do well in free agency.
Austin!!!
Dodgers gonna need to resign him.
Not happening. He’ll get a multi-year contract as a starting catcher, primarily for his defensive skills. He’s not an automatic out, but his career stats are less than overwhelming.
I think you are right.
Probably with the Gnats.
Could well be. Farhan likes ex-Dodgers.
And they definately need a catcher.
They think they have prospects.
He’s also on the wrong side of 30, though he’s not been overworked.
33 next year.
BARNSY!!!!!
This definitely qualifies as a bullpen game.
Lux-urious! Great AB!
LUXOR!!
Hudson gets the DP!
MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK!!!
Good grief…
Misplayed by Smith
Get somebody up Dave.
He’s gotta face three hitters.
Need someone ready after those 3.
Betts needs a triple for a cycle.
He woulda had it last AB if he hadn’t slipped and fell.
Good possibility.
He was already a third of the way there.
Mookie’s hurting – only managed a liner for a single.
Okay, guys. Time to get ready for Aida, which requires digging real, fancy clothes out of my closet and making sure they still fit and haven’t been eaten by moths. Get us the win, okay?
Brusdar!!!
Ump not giving Brusdar anything.
Schwarber vs. Graterol. Yikes.
Shucks, foo, and rats.
Brusdar is a beast.
Top of the order next inning, at least.
Gotta score in these situations, guys. Maybe Dino could have been more aggressive with Muncy knowing who was coming up. However, he’s my hero now, so I won’t second-guess him!
Pop-up on a pitch that was the one to hit.
rats
Sub-standard futuring.
Nail-biter at bat.
Oh man – almost got that one down the line, CT3!
Sacks full for CT3. Big opportunity here, Chris!
A Willy Dilly!!
Time to knock Nola out of this game.
Buh-Bye..
That looked bad, but maybe not so bad?
Looks like he will be OK. Can’t afford to lose him for any extended period of time.
Irreplaceable.
MOOK!!
RALLY TIME!! Clap…Clap
So, it’ll be another come-from-behind win. Meanwhile, at Software Stadium, the Gnats have lost again to the Pads, so it’s must-win to keep the 1.5-game lead.
Bad Balco Oil???
That, or the Yanquis hijacked the shipment.
Mookie!!!
KT3.
We strike out too much.
Tell that to Gnats “prospect” Joey Bart. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/6e593426ed4d0d279c4937ca55c06865e07dc3b4a67c34bc59065e5633c355f5.png
Yep, he is the poster boy for SO. As a team the Gnats have only struck out 10 more times than the Dodgers. 318 to 308.
Bart failed to K today, because he never got to bat. He was on deck when the game ended.
DBacks and Rockies coming back to earth. I think San Diego will be our main nemesis this year.
I see Harper is back. Makes their lineup much better. Might want to pitch around him in crucial situations.
It could take him a while to scrape off the rust.
Lets hope so.
Watching CT3 the last couple of weeks has been painful.
Do we have any MLB.TV subscribers here? I’m moving to a condo for at least a month, and the basic cable package doesn’t include the Dodgers channel, and the provider (Hawaiian Telcom) doesn’t include it in premium channels either.
I’m wondering if the $25/month deal lets me see all Dodgers games or do I need to pay the $120 for the whole season for one team. Anyone know?
Pretty sure that gets you access to all teams games for one month. Then it automatically renews if you don’t cancel. Might want to check the blackout restrictions for your locale before you purchase.
Sucks to be me. MLB.tv says even the single team package doesn’t bypass blackout policy.
That just cost them $120.
MLB really knows how to promote the sport…
However, I believe it’s possible to bypass the blackout if your regular cable provider – presuming you’ve not cancelled it – includes the Dodgers. You have to enter that when signing in.
Hmm. I’ll check, thanks.
Hmm. I’ve got three receiver choices, but I’m not taking a cable box, just a TV. The provider to this condo is Hawaiian Tel, not Spectrum cable, and it doesn’t have SPNLA available. Also, it’s 15 miles away in town.
Well, we’ll see.
If you have a cable or satellite provider, it should work anywhere. We don’t have either, so we can’t see the Gnats or the A’s on MLBTV unless we’re geographically out of area (no blackouts in Buenos Aires, even in the post-season).
Ridiculous.
