Aaron Harang continued his great pitching against the Dodgers this season, pitching eight scoreless innings to lead the Padres over the Dodgers 3-0 on Saturday night at Petco Park in San Diego. Harang entered tonight allowing one earned run on three hits in 12 innings against the Dodgers this season, and it was more of the same tonight, as the Dodgers managed just three hits and no walks against the right-hander in eight innings.
Matt Kemp singled in his first at-bat, but went hitless the rest of the game, including a double play against Heath Bell to end it in the ninth inning. Kemp did have a 400-foot flyout to center field in the sixth inning. Here is the updated look at the triple crown stats.
| Batting Average | Home Runs | RBI | |||||
| Ryan Braun | .3309 | Matt Kemp | 37 | Matt Kemp | 119 | ||
| Jose Reyes | .3295 | Albert Pujols | 37 | Ryan Howard | 114 | ||
| Matt Kemp | .3253 | Uggla / Fielder |
35 | Prince Fielder | 114 | ||
Both Jerry Sands (12 games) and Dee Gordon (11 games) extended their career-high hitting streaks on Saturday.
Clayton Kershaw looks to lock up the National League Cy Young Award in Sunday's series finale. Cory Luebke pitches for the Padres.

I see Billingsley played no part in tonight’s game, and apparently does not deserve a mention. Ah well. He did really great for four innings. That could be his epitaph for the season.
Wait. This is going a little too far:
LP – Wade LeBlanc (11-11): 5 IP, 4 hits, 3 runs (2 earned), 3 walks, 3 strikeouts
Avoidance taken to a bit of an extreme, no? ;-)
He was on “Friends” for, like, 20 years, and then they gave him his own show. You don’t remember? Perhaps you were encased in your pop bunker.

Nate King Cole once wrote about Chad Billingsley’s 2011 season, but then added an “un” after initial versions of the song didn’t test well.

Epitaph

BA contenders vs. tomorrow's probables (career)
Kemp v. Luebke: 2 for 5 (0 HR)
Braun v. Nolasco: 2 for 9
Reyes v. Halladay: 11 for 26
He’s what you get when your lock is stuck.

I love me some Rubby
"Champions last year," he said. "Not this year." - Rubby De La Rosa after shaming the Giants in ST
None of the Big 3 for the NL CYA have pitched
since Wednesday morning when I looked at the Baseball-Reference neutralized stats. These were the stats then:
Halladay: 17-7, 2.50 ERA, 223 IP, 34 BB, 213 K, 1.072 WHIP
Cliff Lee: 17-7, 2.52 ERA, 218 IP, 42 BB, 223 K, 1.083 WHIP
Kershaw: 17-7, 2.53 ERA, 217 IP, 55 BB, 232 K, 1.069 WHIP
Apparently the Dodger Stadium park factor shifted in the last few days. Heading into today:
Kershaw: 17-7, 2.49 ERA, 217 IP, 55 BB, 232 K, 1.065 WHIP
Halladay: 17-7, 2.50 ERA, 223 IP, 34 BB, 213 K, 1.072 WHIP
Cliff Lee: 17-7, 2.52 ERA, 218 IP, 42 BB, 223 K, 1.083 WHIP
I still find it amazing how similar those three pitchers are.
I’ve been down so goddamn long
that it seems like up to me
that is really the bruins song, but I guess I won’t feel bad if the trojans sing it too

"Next year, we're definitely going to make the playoffs."
-MVP
Yes and yes,
But what I said is the truth!
"Next year, we're definitely going to make the playoffs."
-MVP
So, I was reading about MLB's latest ploy to get McCourt out...........
…And now the Dodgers may not be part of MLB if Frank remains committed to holding on to them? I have to become a Rancho Cucamonga fan if I want to see Dodger Baseball? WTF is going on here? Is any of this going to allow for Dodger basebal next year?
Baseball is a game, and games are supposed to be fun.

A word, yeah that would really happen. MLB has hoped not to play this card since it brings the issue of their power into question. But there is no chance they would kick out the Dodgers.
Contest is resumed
A. O/U Total Runs Scored: 5.5 (1:1)
B. O/U Matt Kemp Total Bases: 1.5 (1:1)
C. O/U Dee Gordon Runs Scored: 0.5 (1:1)
D. O/U Clayton Kershaw wins: 0.5 (1:1)
E. O/U Clayton Kershaw Strikeouts: 8.5 (1:1)
F. (Prop bet) Dodgers win by more than one run: (2:1)
G. (Prop bet) Kershaw gives up no earned runs: (3:1)
H. (Prop bet) Kershaw pitches CG with at least 10 Ks: (5:1)
Need some new blood to join and risk it all so we can chase down Phil before the season ends.
