Phillies won Yankees won Dodgers lead 5-2 with two on and Manny up. Update: They won. Matt Kemp made some interesting choices in the field, but also hit what would turn out to be the game-winning homerun.
drive straight theough the main entrancethen go right away from the stadium. there is an exit you can park near. By the time you walk from your seat to the car, that exit was clear and it was a quick trip though the neighborhood to the freeway. never failed me.
Hate New York City
It’s cold and it’s damp
And all the people dressed like monkeys
Let’s leave Chicago to the Eskimos
That town’s a little bit too rugged
For you and me you bad girl
Rollin’ down the Imperial Highway
With a big nasty redhead at my side
Santa Ana winds blowin’ hot from the north
And we was born to ride
Roll down the window put down the top
Crank up the Beach Boys baby
Don’t let the music stop
We’re gonna ride it till we just can’t ride it no more
From the South Bay to the Valley
From the West Side to the East Side
Everybody’s very happy
’Cause the sun is shining all the time
Looks like another perfect day
I love L.A. (We love it)
I love L.A. (We love it)
Look at that mountain
Look at those trees
Look at that bum over there, man
He’s down on his knees
Look at these women
There ain’t nothin’ like ’em nowhere
Century Boulevard (We love it)
Victory Boulevard (We love it)
Santa Monica Boulevard (We love it)
Sixth Street (We love it, we love it)
One: because it is a vile drink that turns even the most respectable men into complete scoundrels. Two: that signal is over a thousand feet high. The entire royal navy is out looking for me, do you think there is even the slightest chance they wont see it?
Though when I was younger (and, thus, skinnier) I’d heard on more occasion that my facial structure sorta resembled that of Mr. Depp and/or Skeet Ulrich.
It was our anniversary today so I missed a lot of the Yankee game.
I saw most of the Dodger game and ‘ya know it seemed kid of boring really. I couldn’t get into it. The Yankee /Twins was a little better. I really wanted David to beat Goliath, so it didn’t really satisfy either. I hope I feel more connected tomorrow. I detest the Halos and Boston so I expect to feel the burn when that game comes on.
I jinxed Manny good.
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
Good Job!!
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
ManBoobs
into a 6-4-3, how many LOB for LA tonight? He said they’ve had 2 or more on in 6 of 7 innings.
emperor nobody - October 7, 2009
At one point each team had 9 LOB but that was a while back
I think LA has loaded the bases three times…
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
Thanks for hanging in there, BBG
Are we up to 12 continuous hours of baseball yet? well, not quite…
Englishmajor - October 7, 2009
Almost, right?
I started listening at 11. Just about!
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
still not enough
that’s why there are 12 more tomorrow!
cuppingmaster - October 7, 2009
Nice!
I HEART the first two days of the playoffs!
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
looks like the national league is going to win two games tonight
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
I'm confused.
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
My work is done
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
I was gonna say you have a unique understanding of the BB play-oofs
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
What will be really fun is the "don't stop believing"
that they now sing after the top of the eighth
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
I could see LA getting behind
singing “Break My Stride”.
That’s so LA.
Hit4TheCycle - October 7, 2009
So where are the lineups?
Hit4TheCycle - October 7, 2009
waaaay back on the main page I think....
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
Way back two threads ago
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
"number 3 please step forward and say 'give me your money'"
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
This is as good as any time to make a move, St. Louis...
danmerqury - October 7, 2009
At least the Dodgers are still winning
cuppingmaster - October 7, 2009
Look the DODGERS team store is in a big tent.
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
they hadn't invented "Team stores" in 1962
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
is it bad
that I want Matt Holliday to come up as the tying run in this game and strike out pathetically?
emperor nobody - October 7, 2009
Nope, I'd like that too
I laughed maniacally in the first inning.
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
no- no it isn't
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
no- no it isn't
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
no
brian.only - October 7, 2009
i like the way you think
cuppingmaster - October 7, 2009
Such a good matchup
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
Did someone here say that Vin was calling the game? where?
Amnesiac - October 7, 2009
790
The Lakers have kidnapped 710
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
thank you!
Amnesiac - October 7, 2009
Ain't nothing gonna break my stride
One final chance for the Cards.
Hit4TheCycle - October 7, 2009
This is gonna sound weird
but watching this game makes me miss living in LA
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
I LOVE living in LA...I do
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
look at those mountains, look at those trees
look at that bum over there, he’s down on his knees!
emperor nobody - October 7, 2009
What are you missing??
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
MY KEYS!
but seiously, I miss something, dirty stip malls, parking, Certain places. Its that summer feeling. I can’t really describe it.
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
My parents loved the summer there where you could stay out in the yard and it was warm well into the evening.
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
I can't tell you how many jackets I have lost because I forgot I brought one to whereever I went
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
This game is still ON? Good lord.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
Exactly how I felt about the Twins/Tigers yesterday.
6hr game…
brian.only - October 7, 2009
But that game was really exciting - if long
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
that game was great
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
That game was the best.
Such a great baseball game.
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
Totally
I was lucky to catch the last 5 innings.
brian.only - October 7, 2009
At least it was 12 innings.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
PAM!!!!
Did you laugh in the first inning like I did?
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
I didn't get home till about 7...what happened?
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
I assume when holliday stuckout looking with the bases loaded and no outs
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
Bitter? Me?
Naaaaaaaaaaaah
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
Bases loaded...zero outs
Cardinals about to get off to a lead, and Holliday takes strike 3 right down the middle
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
That's lovely.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
I keep trying to spy Michelle and/or Lisa on TV. I miss Dodger Stadium!
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
I LOVE Michelle and Lisa! They are my favs!
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
Thanks BBG! Game is way better with Vin calling it.
Amnesiac - October 7, 2009
Isn't it, though?
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
it is
Amnesiac - October 7, 2009
Oof Back tot back walks...
brian.only - October 7, 2009
to*
brian.only - October 7, 2009
Help me...I love Eastwick
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
ok I CAN help, but you have to listen carefully. There are several steps.
1. Strip.
2. Uh… shit, I forgot.
mikev - October 7, 2009
oh my
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
Great play.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
That's the kind of play that'll fire a team up
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
Not that I want it to.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
I'm kinda meh for either team
just want to see good BB played
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
Prince Albert wants that ring
no, there’s noi double entendre in that statement, nothing to see here, folks.
emperor nobody - October 7, 2009
Kudos to you, sir.
mikev - October 7, 2009
That is a PERFECT example of why not to slide
I think he has a MUCH better chance running through it
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
that poo holes guy has a future
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
Holliday's up...
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
Holliday's out.
Tee hee.
brian.only - October 7, 2009
God, I hate Holliday!
Amnesiac - October 7, 2009
OK - let's see what the Cards can do here.
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
hotel, motel
Holliday in.
emperor nobody - October 7, 2009
haha
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009

then you take her friend.
emperor nobody - October 7, 2009

ElQuesoCapitan - October 7, 2009
Uh oh.....
….I don’t think this one’s got the distance
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
hee hee
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
big smile
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
So you followed my instructions?
mikev - October 7, 2009
Matt Kemp needs some instructions
just sayin’
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
yeah, about that
mikev - October 7, 2009
Nice hit
Englishmajor - October 7, 2009
Too bad so sad, Matthew.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
i'm confused
why didn’t hudson start. i assumed he wasinjured. DOes he just suck?
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
what's with the Black Sabbath "Iron Man" loop
they play before every pitch?
I prefer Sweet Leaf, gee wonder why.
emperor nobody - October 7, 2009
Lots of ppl have left this game!
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
this thread cleared out like it was dodger stadium
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
Niiiiice
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
Hmm...Matt Kemp, that's two now
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
CARDINLOLS
ElQuesoCapitan - October 7, 2009
Oh, Gorgeous Matt Kemp.
Big oops.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
Haha...gorgeous Matt Kemp
Too bad we don’t do Dodgers lineups
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
There are some lookers.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
Naughty BBG today...!
ElQuesoCapitan - October 7, 2009
That was baaaaaaad. No way that should have gotten by him
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
That's two he's looked...um...interesting on tonight
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
Musta missed the other one during Glee.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
tivo, young lady, tivo
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
Yes, I dvr-ed Glee, I just took some time off during the game to watch it.
Which was fine, because nothing really happened and it was still on after I was done.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
there were plenty of walks
and failures to score runners
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
What the hell is that blowhorn noise after every foul.
ElQuesoCapitan - October 7, 2009
not as weird as the weed they grow in the back of the bullpens
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
huge standing oveation
for baseballgirl doing 3 games today with threads all around!
emperor nobody - October 7, 2009
Awwww...thanks!
That’s a nice standing ovation!
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009

BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
I LOVE LA...do do do do do
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
You love it more that you're not driving home right now.
Getting out of there is gonna be hell.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
Can you even imagine????
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
I always had a plan.
drive straight theough the main entrancethen go right away from the stadium. there is an exit you can park near. By the time you walk from your seat to the car, that exit was clear and it was a quick trip though the neighborhood to the freeway. never failed me.
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
My plan...
…park on Figueroa and walk up the hill ;-) But your idea is good too. :-)
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
see there you go
street names make me want to go back too.
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
I'm just glad this one didn't go into extras....
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
Can you imagine?
AROUND THE CLOCK baseball!
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
Oh gosh, I don't think I could keep up with that.
Brb, dying.
ElQuesoCapitan - October 7, 2009
this game, no
last nights, I could do it
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
Felt like it anyway.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
Longest game in division game history
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
And yet there was not much excitement in it
Englishmajor - October 7, 2009
Yeah pretty damn boring.
blah.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
something like 27 runners left on base
that’ll make it boring
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
Base loaded LOBs. Boo.
ElQuesoCapitan - October 7, 2009
It's time for me to fall on a couch somewhere and pass out, totally forgoing the steps it takes to get to my room and sleep on my comfortable pillows.
Night all!
ElQuesoCapitan - October 7, 2009
Night y'alls...so tired!
proabably see you manana
BERRYJO - October 7, 2009
Nighty!
ElQuesoCapitan - October 7, 2009
I Love L.A.
Hate New York City
It’s cold and it’s damp
And all the people dressed like monkeys
Let’s leave Chicago to the Eskimos
That town’s a little bit too rugged
For you and me you bad girl
Rollin’ down the Imperial Highway
With a big nasty redhead at my side
Santa Ana winds blowin’ hot from the north
And we was born to ride
Roll down the window put down the top
Crank up the Beach Boys baby
Don’t let the music stop
We’re gonna ride it till we just can’t ride it no more
From the South Bay to the Valley
From the West Side to the East Side
Everybody’s very happy
’Cause the sun is shining all the time
Looks like another perfect day
I love L.A. (We love it)
I love L.A. (We love it)
Look at that mountain
Look at those trees
Look at that bum over there, man
He’s down on his knees
Look at these women
There ain’t nothin’ like ’em nowhere
Century Boulevard (We love it)
Victory Boulevard (We love it)
Santa Monica Boulevard (We love it)
Sixth Street (We love it, we love it)
I love L.A.
I love L.A.
(We love it)
emperor nobody - October 7, 2009

We've been here for TWELVE HOURS!
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009

I was out on errands and paying bills all day long, then cookin’ dinner, then…

One won lost won - October 7, 2009

i don’t pay bills
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
thanks for the game threads
when are the recaps gonna be up?
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
When you write them! :-D
I did a mini one of the first game, but the last two games were kinda meh.
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
1 for 3 on the day.
Hoping for a prediction sweep tomorrow:
rocks over phillies
sux over slegnA
dodgers over cards (again)
go plyoffs!
cuppingmaster - October 7, 2009 via mobile
Sweet baseball dreams to all!
Englishmajor - October 7, 2009
See y'all tomorrow!
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
Anybody else feel like Captain Morgan right now?
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
But why is the rum gone?
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
hey yooooooo
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
WHY IS THE RUM GONE
mikev - October 7, 2009
we reckon that means yes.
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
LOL.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
Don't get uppity with me.
mikev - October 7, 2009
Squawk! Wind in your sails!
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
You're cracking me UP!
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
I think we've all arrived at a very special place.
Spiritually, ecumenically, grammatically.
;-)
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
My favorite line.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
Mine is:
A wedding? I love weddings. Drinks all around!
And…why is the rum gone? Of course.
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
but
WHY IS THE RUM GONE?
mikev - October 7, 2009
One: because it is a vile drink that turns even the most respectable men into complete scoundrels. Two: that signal is over a thousand feet high. The entire royal navy is out looking for me, do you think there is even the slightest chance they wont see it?
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
You'd make a good Captain Jack Sparrow.
pam5981 - October 7, 2009
If I were taller and skinnier, perhaps.
Though when I was younger (and, thus, skinnier) I’d heard on more occasion that my facial structure sorta resembled that of Mr. Depp and/or Skeet Ulrich.
Not so much anymore. I blame the beer. And rum.
mikev - October 8, 2009
Unfortunately no, I'm 100% sober.
Aside from the vicodin that isn’t doing shit for the pinched nerve in my neck.
mikev - October 7, 2009
Harry belefonte is my uncle
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
I took a trip on a sailing ship...
…when I reached Jamaica, I made a stop
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
I love the sad objects commercial
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
millions of men with "E.D."
yeah, one of my favorites
Future Ed - October 7, 2009
haha, not that one!
baseballgirl - October 7, 2009
you mean the swiffer ones?
With the mop, the woman, and swiffer?
“I’m sorry I was dirty…”
cuppingmaster - October 7, 2009 via mobile
It was our anniversary today so I missed a lot of the Yankee game.
I saw most of the Dodger game and ‘ya know it seemed kid of boring really. I couldn’t get into it. The Yankee /Twins was a little better. I really wanted David to beat Goliath, so it didn’t really satisfy either. I hope I feel more connected tomorrow. I detest the Halos and Boston so I expect to feel the burn when that game comes on.
