Los Angeles Dodgers at Arizona Diamondbacks, Aug 31, 2008 8:05 PM EDT

Baseball-Reference.com preview [opens in new window]
This series hasn't exactly gone as expected, has it? Doug Davis beat Kuroda in the opener, while Dan Haren was, by all accounts, pretty mediocre in last night's encounter, and we went down without much fight. The result leaves the series in balance, and today becomes a game we would certainly love to win, as the difference between a 4.5 game lead, and one of only 2.5 games, is very significant, especially with only 26 games left for the Diamondbacks.
Still, no-one better suited than Webb to take the mound, as no-one has more wins in their career against the Dodgers - his ten beating Johnson (8) and Schilling (7). All told, he is 10-3 with a 2.54 ERA and, as noted previously, he hasn't lost to them in almost four years and since the end of 2004, he is 8-0 with a 1.19 ERA. His two starts against them this season were almost identical, each lasted eight innings and resulted in six hits and just one run. I think we'd happily settle for that again tonight, in front of a national TV audience, and definitely not the evil, pod Brandon who showed up in San Diego and blew chunks.
Of course, Ramirez vs. Webb will be interesting - they've never faced each other before, but Mandy has completely destroyed Arizona pitching since coming to Los Angeles. In five games for the Dodgers against the Diamondbacks, he is batting .727. No: that's not a mis-print. He is 16-for-22 with four home-runs, nine runs scored and seven RBI. Much as I hate the man ["Barry who?"], I have to confess a grudging respect for him: it's an interesting contrast to the 2-for-11 with no extra-base hits, walks or RBI he went against us when playing for Boston.
I'll be at The Sets, as we have a lucha show tonight: at time of posting, I am probably going to be at the airport, picking up our star guest luchador, Hijo de Psychedelico. However, I expect to be back in time for the game and will be posting copiously, in order to make up for my absence yesterday - I take the heavy burden of responsibility for the defeat on my shoulders there. I feel confident normal service will be resumed, and we will come away with the required victory, that will put us in good shape for September.

Kind of nervous
because the DBacks often look pretty sad when they are on National TV. But I’ll cross my fingers and hope for a big win!

Disappearing Comments
As a follow-up to the David Eckstein thread, I filed a report with SBNation. It could be part of hardware upgrades (hence all the downtimes!) but they said they will look into the missing comments issue ASAP.

David Eckstein
Wouldn’t the timing make him eligible for the post season roster while not requiring a 25 man roster move due to the expanded rosters?
Cool.

Upton
why is Upton not in the line up? It makes no sense to me. Tracy has been god awful and Clark cant hit a curve ball. Melvin needs to get Upton in there.

I bailed on the team
My sister talked me into going to the game even though we didn’t have tickets. Ended up in 323 row 10. Needless to say, a very disappointing start by Webb. We couldn’t bear to watch any more and left shortly after it was 8-0. I don’t usually leave early when we are losing, but we going to tomorrow’s game, Randy’s 3rd attempt to get #295 and I figured I wanted to conserve my energy (and fury) for tomorrow. I haven’t even looked at the score since we left although I do see that Reynolds scored a run somehow to avoid the shutout.

Remember, pace your rage.
It’s tempting to spend it all in the first couple innings. But remember, this is the D-Backs, and you need to have rage in reserve for every play of the game. It’s a marathon (a groaning, cursing, beer-throwing marathon), not a sprint.

But I think that only applies if your beer is knocked over by a ball hit from the field of play. Just because you knocked it over after your team popped up to end the inning (again) does count.

by DbacksSkins on Sep 1, 2008 12:21 AM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Yeah, that's what they say
The reason a guy runs on the field is to stop the game and get attention. Beach balls usually don’t purposely fall onto the field, they just sometimes float down there. Also, running on the field is potentially dangerous for a player and often results in jail time, whereas a beach ball is just annoying.
