I'd like to see them score at least 12 runs for the series.

I wouldn't care if we only scored three runs for the series, if we win all three games ☺

Its hard for me to fathom how I grew up as a Dodger fan. Granted the Dbacks didn't exist and the Dodgers had likeable players, a loveable manager and announcer and a respectable ownership group... but still... the modern Dodgers soiled a lot of pleasant sports memories.

I grew up a Cubs fan - when I moved to Flagstaff in 1983, the only regular baseball we got was on KTLA - Dodgers. Hard to not root for a team that has Vin Scully announcing for it and Tommy Lasorda managing it.




Now of course, they are the enemy.

Yeah, my dad was a huge Dodger fan because growing up out here they got the radio broadcasts. Almost every year in the late 80s and early 90s we made 2-3 trips to LA to catch a series. The first athlete that I really worshiped was Orel, and then Mike Piazza came along right at the tail end of being young enough to really idolize those guys. When they canned Lasorda and then shipped off a tearful Piazza it made it really easy for me to fully adopt the Dbacks.

This lineup 6-8 is brutal. Offense is down throughout baseball but it's unbearable at the bottom of the lineup.

this might sound crazy but Ruby didn't have THAT bad of a game. couple bad pitches.

by the way, where in the world did the dodgers get this joc peterson kid from? he is going to be GOOD i think. beast at the plate, and has made some INSANE catches in the outfield

D Backs jump out to a lead (Thx to Goldie), LA ties it in their half, but we take the quick lead again in the second.

Why is it every time Marshall gets out there the other team takes the lead?? Why is he still in the rotation?

Hill finally hits a homer yesterday and he is not in today's line-up, while Ahmed is.

Burgos looks like a keeper! And Goldy continues to rake!
0-0 top 12... Would be nice to grab this final game and avoid the sweep...

You know, a couple years ago, I thought Marshall was going to be good. But, now I don't know.

Nasty stuff... Just doesn't have the ability to stick with a plan and locate appropriately. The gopher ball he gave up today was just above belt high... Against a proven lefty power hitter like Grandal, you HAVE to keep the ball low and outside... He didn't and he paid the price...

tough series. I hate losing to the Dodgers, regardless of where we are in the division

Only 3 solid OBP guys in the order (Tomas' sample size isn't large enough yet for me to count him). It makes for really inconsistent offense.

Getting Lamb back and sliding (a hopefully consistent) Tomas into the OF would be a huge boon for our offense.
