Gameday Thread - Angels @ Dodgers - 8/5

[NachoPop]

Lets see if Hector can keep up his team leading .333 avg

Hamilton vs. Kershaw should be high comedy.

 

If Hamilton fouls off two pitches for the entire night, I am ok saying he went 2-4.

[LAAMike]

Meanwhile in Oakland the Hammel show continues.  Go Angels

[jshep]

This one I am fine with.

 

Kershaw is so overdue it's not even funny. The Dodgers have won his last 11 starts, and Kershaw is 10-0 over that span. He has allowed just 12 earned runs in his last 13 starts, 9 in his last 11. 13 straight starts allowing 3 or fewer earned runs.

 

I know he's a freak, but he's also human. He can't pitch like this forever.

 

Now he's going to give up negative runs. Thanks bro.

I didn't make a thread about it! I thought about doing it but then I realized they would get perfecto'd.

About to head to Dodger Stadium to see them play our Halos there for the first time. Wish me luck =o

 

Will be wearing my Trout shirt, but will sport the Kings Championship hat (just to be safe). Though true haters likely would see red and not notice the hat. Sitting with a Kings Season Ticket Holder I know who has Dodgers Season Seats as well. He has assured me that the Dodger fans near him are nice about it. So I don't know what to expect really. I think it's the random Dodger fans that aren't near me that I should be worried about.

On 12 pitches. Book it.

LOL.

 

I remember the quote by Reggie Jackson, on what it was like to face Nolan Ryan. He said he just hoped to go 0-3 with a walk, and call it a good night.

Wish I could watch the game to see the best player in baseball vs. the best pitcher in baseball facing each other for the first time (or did they meet in the ASG?).

Trout just missed him in the ASG. Kershaw pitched the second inning.

[tdawg87]

Cy Danks allowed 9 ER in 4.2 IP against Texas.

 

Have no idea how that team is only 5 back of the WC.

[Jason]

If they can get 2 runs off Kershaw, hold him to 7 innings and have Santiago go 6 then I think this game is a success

[martinpa25]

Last time I checked kershaw is human...which means he's beatable

[tdawg87]

Hopefully Aybar rips a liner off Kershaw's balls.

OGAAT!!!

That could cause serious injury. I'm only hoping he gets really bad diarrhea  

[Frieri Meatball]

I have no doubt Trout will do big things tonight. Dude always steps up big when the spotlight is on him like it is tonight versus Kershaw.
