Open Thread Dodgers at Padres, 1PM today

Tiny by Sammy G on Comment 254 comments

A weird Monday series opening day game at Petco.  Its $1 Micro-Brew day also!  Happy B-day TTG!  Hopefully Jake can come through.  We need him to pitch well today, since he is also going tommorrow.  He is such a gamer.  Penny is going for the Dodgers, even after that strange incident this morning with that sheep....

Anyways here are the starting lineups:

Dodgers:
Furcal (SS)
Pierre (CF)
Kemp (RF)
Kent (2b)
Loney (1b)
Martin (c)
Either (LF)
Hillenbrand(3b)
Penny (P)

Padres:
B.Giles (RF)
M.Giles (2B)
M. Bradly (LF)
A-Go (1B)
Cameron (CF)
Greene (SS)
Kouz (3B)
Bard (C)
Update [2007-9-10 15:45:20 by SammyG]:T Gwynn (C)-thanks WG for the update
Peavy (P)

Go Padres!

Peavy
This is why Peavy is nails.  Pitches today AND tomorrow.

This should be a great game.

Happy B-Day, TTG!
If we don't beat the Dodgers with Penny pitching on one day of rest I'm officially giving up.

I love this quote from him
"When I go to the plate today, I'm not gonna hit from the left side OR the right side.  My oblique won't allow it.  So I'm just gonna stand ON the plate and use my bat like an ax."

Dude has game.

I predict a 0-0 score until the bottom of them ninth when Khalil-bot slugs one into Western Metal to win the game :->

I'm posting from the ballpark today
on my brand new laptop I got for my birthday. Thanks for these awesome seats, Sammy G! First row behind home... I knew you had connections but damn! Between these seats, the dollar microbrews, and the painkillers Demoira overnighted, this game will definately be the best time freelunch and I have ever had!

I'm sorry if that's what I implied.
It's not what I meant at all; I was just throwing a name out there because nobody goes to a baseball game alone and yours happened to be the first one that came to mind.

I heard that the team might've signed Tony Gwynn to a one day contract, just for this game.  

I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

You guys are the greatest.
Seriously, GLB is the most wonderful sanctuary this bumbling, kicked-out-of-the-house drunk could ever have. My brothers and friends never gave a darn about the Pads or baseball in general but now they always check the score and I get drunken phone calls at 3 in the morning saying things like "today's open thread was the funniest thing I've ever read" and once I picked it up to hear "BALLS TO THE WALL!!! EXPERIENCE IT!!! *click".

To make a long story short
When we met we were both recovering alcoholics (I used to be sober for years!) and I think my comments on here hint at the fact I'm no longer recovering, she can't jeopardize her sobriety by having a guy drinking around her all the time, and I'm a horrible person to be around when I'm not drinking but that's all I want to do... it's pretty complicated. I think a treatment center would probably be in order.

At least we're civil and there's not a lot of anger tied up in it. It's sort of a long-distance relationship for the moment while we each get our shit in order. We'll be okay; neither one of us knows how to love anyone else.

Not to make fun of the other great blogs.
But do you know how jealous some of them would be if they knew we broke 100 comments on a game that doesn't even exist?

Just to give you an idea on the comment numbers for open threads during yesterday's game in the NL West:

Purple Row - 69
True Blue LA - ZERO
AZ Snake Pit - 43
McCovey Chronicles - 113
GLB - 461

See, I couldn't pull that off.
Mine would be JLan or JLa and that just doesn't look right. I picked 10 for my summer league because my stepdaughter's ten and all of the jerseys were pre-made so I couldn't get 19, 28  or 82 which is what I wore in my single game of high school baseball and two years of senior league (I wanted a high # like Dennis Rodman and I was born in '82 and it was also the Carlton Fisk version of Joey Cora's number). Did you pick 12?

what happened?
this is like the longest game known to man. and what's the score?
"i kinda feel like nevin and klesko were some fling we (the padres) had in the past and now realize were a bad idea and are embarrassed about."

It was 13-0.
Peavy was perfect in every way possible, Kouz hit for the cycle, Philip Fitzsimmons and Joey Cora also homered, Briles walked a bunch and Khalil took an oh-fer until Trevor mercifully took over for him at shortstop.

I'm weeping
inside. Even in an imaginary game, Khalil still gets no love :-(

In our defense...
He was flawless in the field (until Hoffy took over for him).

And Khalil is a team guy...I think he only cares about the team getting a win.

Oh, come on.
Everyone was perfect in the field.

There's perfect
and then there's Khalil.  He was spectacular!  Leaping catches, truly elegant double plays, line drives, pop ups, nothing could get past him!

But I thought
Jake struck out everyone. Did I miss something?

Foul balls
He made all those plays in the stands, but he couldn't manage to keep his feet in the playing field.

That one where he had to death pinch some Dodger fan to get him out of the way was amazing!

Wow
A truly historic day.

Damn, Drama!
That postgame concert was unbelievable. I can't belive that Jello agreed to get back with the fellas just to do "Police Truck" and "California Uber Alles" for some stupid baseball game. That's almost as awesome as when Rollins toured Black Flag songs to raise money for the West Memphis Three's defense fund.
