In fairness to Rox Girl
Over at TBLA they opened their game thread with the title, “Division Clinching Game Chat”
Ignorance of the American League is a sign of good moral character.
Look out Dodgers...Purple objects in mirror are closer than they appear.
I'll be the guy in a orange shirt EVERY Monday...Broncos are my team win or lose.
The Natinals clearly didn't

im not going to cite a conspiracy or anything since we have gotten calls too but damn he was out by a ways.
and they get the double play so its meaningless
So I'm walking back from my meeting

I'm just not sure Marquis or even the other players would look at it like that.
It might rub a lot of guys the wrong way, no matter what Marquis has done lately. I’d be really surprised if he was left off the roster.
So you think he makes the roster but not the rotation?
I could live with that, as long as it doesn’t mean carrying an extra pitcher and not having the Golden Thong on the bench.

I can't believe i'm saying this, but i agree.
I wasn’t impressed with Marquis tonight. He was inches from getting run early in the game and, despite the fact that he settled down a bit, he got hit HARD in those early innings (when he wasn’t walking people). Fortunately most were hit right at our outfielders.

You can thank me, guys
I walked in the door and turned on the game tonight to see Kendall’s homer. Quickly turned the channel and damn near forgot about the game once Slap Shot started on VS. (“She underlines the sex scenes for ya?”)
Then during a commerical happened across the final score. Hurried to MLB.com to see the highlight. Sweet Mother of God, I’m going to sleep better tonight than I have in the last couple of days.
God bless Jorge Cantu, Leo Nunez, Matt Belisle, and especially that underachieving son of a bitch Chris Iannetta, who is forgiven for a whole season of disappointment with that one swing. God bless us, everyone.

Because it looks like the Dodgers will still be playing important games this weekend, and won’t lay down for those unknown underdogs from Denver.

Who do they match up better against?
Philly or the Cards? Maybe they won’t be that worried about losing the division.

on Hart not being called out at 1st on the tag up? Probably. Umpires are human.
Yes, umps are human, but I guess it's a point to all of our griping in the card's series over the
