Is this lead Yates-proof?
Despite the groundout, ConOrto holds the Mendoza Line.
ConOrto has crossed the Mendoza Line!
Mike at bat.
Glasnost has now thrown more strikes than balls.
Tyler on to the seventh!
Tyler still around for the sixth is amazing. Doesn’t have much, but keeping them off the board.
ConOrto edges ever closer to the Mendoza Line.
Nice quick shutdown half inning for Tyler.
I like Mike!
Reading Jane Leavy’s new one “Make Me Commisioner”, she of definitive bios of Koufax, Mickey, and Babe.
Rox rolling over early for Fryers.
Mutts break their eight-game streak with Alonso walk-off.
Both pitchers are a mess.
Robot Ray struggling with control.
Runs here would be nice.
Glasnost on pace for 153-pitch CGSO.
Clean inning from Scott? Seriously?
Ballgame
Woo-HOO!!!
Great Scott!
Rooting for Tanner to do well here.
Does Doc dare risk this?
Mister Doubles
Scott lurking.
Kopech not quite so bad as Yates and Scott?
One more, Michael.
Wrobo doing his best Kershaw impression.
Wrobo!
Conforto is having a lot better at bats. And how about Miggy Ro?
Thanks offense.
Max is the man.
Wrobleski looking like a better choice than Yates for the post season roster
Yates is opening the gates
Yates misses are big misses.
It was like a light switch. He was doing fine and all of a sudden he stopped striding toward the plate and instead was falling off the mound toward first. He never fixed that.
His contact expires at season’s end. Dodgers should DFA him and recall Casparius.
Earlier I said they should score a run or 8. But 6 is pretty good.
Rortvedt is Wally Pipping Rushing
This is more fun
Go Blue!!!!
Conga line baseball!
You can’t stop Rortvedt. You can hardly hope to contain him.
Setting up Rortvedt for a big at bat
Big Ben!!!!
Ben!
Keep it alive Rorty
Let’s go Miggy Ro.
From Orel: 8 2-strike base runners tonight. That seems good.
No loss for Kershaw. And hopefully also the same for the Dodgers tonight.
Teo! Baby!
Ballgame!
