Big k by Green Roy with runners at 2nd and 3rd and 1 out.

Roy chewed up the middle of the Dogs order. Nice of Unca Charlie to drop by. We need 8 Roy.

ManRam- bat waggle, ball, bat waggle, quick glare at RoyO, foul to the right, shake dreads, step back out of box, fiddle with armbands, step back in, bat waggle, ground to Kaz, throw to Berkman in time. Furcal to 3rd, Hudson to 2nd, ManRam out.

Ethier- Called S, foul, ball, golfed another foul to the left, foul to the left again, iRod out to chat with RoyO, went golfing again and struck out swinging. 2 outs, runners on 2nd and 3rd.

Bleh. I hate how I type "post" and walk away for a minute, then come back to find that my post didn't post.

I missed the Kaz's out due to serving children fried rice, and barely saw some Dodger little league antics which assisted Miggy with getting safely to first, and at the moment, Berkman's at 2-and-2.

iRod: had a b before the steal, called S, Gunter took off for 3rd and then iRod hit to the diving 3B, who recovered in time to throw iRod out at 1st. 2 outs, Gunter at 3rd, Keppinger up.

94CougarGrad · « **Reply #19 on:** April 22, 2009, 07:42:59 pm »

Dodgers 3rd:

Clemens being interviewed in the seats. Kinda got the Guy Fieri thing going with the visor and spiky hair.

Missed the 1st out while checking on the Rangers game. Clemens still being interviewed while on his laptop. C'mon, y'all, I'm missing the pbp here while y'all are making environmental divot jokes.

Furcal's now at 1-2. Foul, bouncer to Berkman who jogs to 1st for the 2nd out.

Brownie: "I spoke to Lance, who says there was no doubt that he was on the base last night for that out..." etc etc etc.

Hudson- b, b, b, called S, foul popup to Kep for the 3rd out.

Dodgers 0.

ManRam with a swinging strikeout. Yee haw!

Ethier- S, b, smack to CF bounces off the visitors' bullpen for a double. Ethier on 2nd, 1 out.

I didn't see how the runners made it to 1st and 2nd but Michaels doubled them home, getting gunned out at 3rd.

MusicMan · « **Reply #97 on:** April 22, 2009, 09:08:05 pm »

Michaels 2-run double to plate Berkman and Lee. Out trying for the triple.

matadorph · « **Reply #98 on:** April 22, 2009, 09:09:14 pm »

Berkman walked, Lee singled, Hunter K'd, then Michaels crushed one over Kemp's head in center, scoring both Berkman and Lee. Michaels got thrown out trying to leg a triple.
