yesterday I read an article on south korean sports website that Ryu said he didn't know what it feels like to have a no hitter after Beckett's historic night, and he would like to experience it himself, and here he is, going perfect so far in the first 5 innings, only spending 56 pitches........

this post should have come after the 6th inning.

if Ryu isn't perfect, guess who I'm blaming.

oh man as soon as i posted this, i realized what i had just done....... :banghead:

come on Ryu, my wife's long distant relative, please erase my error!

BTW, I know you had a little run ins with Ranma, but that brother also needs to be here and join the game thread!
(or i guess you can call it a season thread)

Ranma and my self are cool brotha.
we had a couple disagreements purely about the Clips and that was it.

it's much diff than ppl like azncorrupt n angel strike where we had a dispute over Sterling....which got me pissed IRL....probably the 1st time ever in internet history i got real life pissed off at what some people on the webs said.

NO PROBLEM with Ranma here and i hope he feels the same way.
i have no prollem with disagreeing with Clipper fans.

btw, you subscribe to the theory that the guns in the stadium are juiced or nah?

Ryu is consistently hitting 94 tonight.

Ryu is consistently hitting 94 tonight.

possible, considering his south korean league days were mostly in low 90s, often dipping down to high 80s with his fastball.

but he also is somebody with a long track record of pumping himself up for the big stages, since his high school days. many players have said in articles i have read leading up to the dodgers signing Ryu, that Ryu seems to be content with simply coasting with his natural talent alone, not giving his 100% until he gets truly fired up. once he is focused to do something, he kicks it up a notch, not only with his velocity but with his control, pitch selection, and command, and becomes unhittable.

this has to be the worst 6-9 in a lineup in the history of the NL.

come on turner....let's get another insurance run.
I think this will make Ryu more comfortable as he's already locked in.

edit: i mean Butera...bring turner around

ERISBEL!!!!!111

i haven't seen his at bats at the AA level.

but outside of the 1st game at Philly....his at bats have not sucked man.
that one was beautiful.

I am really glad he is hitting well so far, but it is a very small sample, man. I wouldn't hang my hat on Erisbel hitting this well for the rest of the season, but i would take his .200 BA as he continues to provide a gold glove level defense at SS. yesterday in Beckett's no hit no run game, there was a couple of plays that I thought could have broken up the no-no, but Erisbel made the plays, and not only that, he did it in such an effortless way that most casual viewers probably didn't even see how great those plays were. one that i can remember from the top of my head is the one that was hit in the gap between the SS/3B/LF and the other two fielders looked unsure, but Erisbel tracked the ball down the moment it was hit, did not deviate from the straight line path he was on, caught the ball way early than i anticipated.

hey in case you are only checking out your thread status page rather then the dodgers home page, Ranma made a Ryu's perfect game thread already

Neddy · Post #139 » by **Neddy** » Tue May 27, 2014 2:25 am

**** me, it's over.

still, a great pitching performance by Ryu tonight.

Quake Griffin · Post #140 » by **Quake Griffin** » Tue May 27, 2014 4:02 am

It's a great thing to have won this game tonight. Baseball is about collecting the Ws more than any other sport.
This is the ultimate, "no matter how, get it done" sport.

with that said....I'm glad we held on and are now 5 out of our last 7.
that's a great place to be knowing that we're throwing Greinke and Kershaw next.
