Buy ‘The Catch: A novel’
What happens when three old friends in crisis fall into an unexpected love triangle? In The Catch, Maya, Henry and Daniel embark upon an emotional journey that forces them to confront unresolved pain, present-day traumas and powerful desires, leading them to question the very meaning of love and fulfillment. The Catch tells a tale of ordinary people seeking the extraordinary – or, if that’s asking too much, some damn peace of mind.

Vin was confusing Morneau with The Island of Dr Moreau – he kept omitting the n.

Bob T can really relate to that.

Carl Crawford told me the reason why umps were checking his bat was because they thought “it was too red”
ASW1
Didn’t know it could be *too red*
KT
me either
Bob_Hendley
I remember when Todd Zeile used to play for the Dodgers. His bat was too burgundy for my taste.
KT
time the the daily pitcher help yourself at bat
Bob_in_Vegas
let’s hope!

Ive noticed that they seem to let Nancy play the organ more lately.
KT
better
ASW1
I’m a Rock ‘n Roll fan but when at DS I prefer the organ MUCH more than the too-loud piped-in blaring music.

Steiner is weird, but that was the weirdest homerun call I have ever heard.
Bob_in_Vegas
I’m glad it wasn’t just me. I had to turn down the volume to make a call and I turned it back up and heard that lackadaisical ending. Then Mo said it was a “screamer” but didn’t sound that way from Steiner.
KT
line drive over the wall…didn’t look like it was going

Okay, hope it’s like last night after the 1-0 deficit!

PUIG!!!!!!!

PUIG!!!!

Glad to see Charlie could get excited about that!
Jack Dawkins
He missed the cut off man again…..
Will Mattingly bench him?
Bob_in_Vegas
Go, Giants!
I know that seems weird, but the sooner the NL West can be wrapped up, the sooner plans can be made to rest people, juggle the rotation, etc.
Besides, I keep thinking of Boston and Atlanta two years ago and what that did to their fans.
ASW1
I actually don’t root for either in this series – Whoever wins, there is a good outcome – Snakes don’t worry me – and would be fun to see the Giants finish in last.

Shoe!

On a visit to L.A. I am taking my mother, who is 92, to Sunday’s game. We will be sitting in Loge, aisle 121, row W, seats 1 and 2. If any of you want to say hello, that would be great. I feel like I know some of you, although we have never met. I will be wearing a Brooklyn cap and a blue Dodgers jersey. We should be there by about noon.
Bob_in_Vegas
I’m stuck here in Vegas, scoop, but have a great time!
I’m sorry you’re not able to see Kersh but Zack’s not a bad consolation prize — I hope you and your mom bring a W to the Blue!
ASW1
Have fun scoop – don’t forget the sunscreen!
KT
under the overhang in row W on the 3rd base side…should be ok
Jon Weisman
But it’s going to be very hot, so go big on the hydrating.

Can you bring in unopened plastic bottles of water?
KT
yes and food
scooplew
Yes. I have a friend who works for the Dodgers and I bought tickets through him with shade being a key factor.-

Yasiel Puig’s arm, unleashed (per @SBNationGIF) http://bit.ly/17bSFgu

That was hypnotic — I kept watching it over and over.
And yes, he sure air-mailed it over the cut-off man!

No chance Yasiel Puig was getting Rene Rivera at home, right? Watch: http://atmlb.com/17xXO91 #whiff

Thanks for both. I liked this one for Vinny, but I liked the other one for the lack of streaming issues.

And all tied up in Arizona.
Bob_in_Vegas
Mo talked about the June series with the Padres turning both clubs’ fortunes around. It was karma because that series in April when Zack was sidelined (and others hurt in the melee) changed their fortunes at THAT time.
Long LIve Chick
This is about the best we could hope for from Cappy (not tooo crappy tonight anyway), we need to take advantage of this and SCORE SOME RUNS!!!!
Bob_in_Vegas
Amen!

Double dose of CCs here!

C’mon, Gonzo!

A gone’s introduction music cracks me up every time.
Bob_in_Vegas
The Dodger hitters have confused Cappy with Kershaw and taken the night off.
ASW1
Damn – and only 71 pitches thru 5 for Cashner – who just hit 100 on the gun against Gonzo.
Linkmeister
Rats.
ASW1
There goes Puig flipping the ball out of his glove to a teammate again.
Jack Dawkins
Great catch by Puig……then he just flips it to Schmacher fromt he glove without transferrign it to the other hand. I guess its only an issue if he flips that way into the stands.
ASW1
Actually, no, if his teammate doesn’t catch it, it could be ruled no out.
Jack Dawkins
Grins, ok. So that and missing the cutoff man. Will he be benched now?
KT
maybe
KT
Nice inning Cappy!
Long LIve Chick
This is our inning. COME ON DODGERS!
KT
Dre!!
KT
Juanito!
Bob_in_Vegas
When I heard him announced at 3rd today, I felt good . . . and happy for him that we now feel that way about him.
What’s the thinking about re-signing him, anyone know?
KT
not many options available at third that are better right now
TAFKA_Gagne55
He’s been terrible two of the three years though. I’d bring him back for a million bucks but wouldn’t give him much more than that.
Jon Weisman
Ken Rosenthal reporting that the Dodgers have acquired Michael Young.
Linkmeister
Why, I wonder.
TAFKA_Gagne55
Because Colletti loves grabbing guys at the August deadline. Remember 2009?

Wow, every one of Fedex’s AB tonight have been simply pathetic. What a wasted opportunity.
Bob_in_Vegas
I’m glad several of you have commented that Cashner looks good . . . and it’s not just the every-5th-game hitting funk (timed to the Kid’s starts) the hitters fall into.
ASW1
Cashner impressive – good swing on that.
Bob_in_Vegas
Great game for Cappy — don’t let him get the loss! (Don’t let ANY Dodger get the loss tonight!)
Jack Dawkins
Puig ran the ball back to the dugout that time. And yes, I can’t believe I am paying attention to this. Especially when we had a great performance from Cappy tonight.
