No doubt.
Just need the Giants to keep sucking whenever they're playing a team not named the Dodgers.


First team to win a division going 2-17 against a rival?



Why are the Dodgers so bad against the Giants? Also, if they keep losing to the Giants they will lose the division

enigma to me.
If the Giants are playing like ****, the Dodgers are like a light at the end of the tunnel for them.

Cluster luck?
Not like the Giants are playing that well anywhere else. They're 8-2 against the Dodgers and are 17-19 in the division.

Still a no-no. Scherzer is on point.

Pretty bush to lean into that pitch but it is what it is. He did his job and broke up the perfect game.

What has gotten into Randal Grichuk? He's hitting HR's like he's prime Pujols.

The Braves just netted, Touki Toussaint, the D-Backs' 4th best prospect (and number 83 overall) in exchange for Phil Gosselin and paying off the rest of Bronson Arroyo's contract. John Hart is the man.

Yasmani Grandal is the best catcher……

on the Dodgers.

But he's easily in the 2nd tier of MLB catchers I believe, if not higher. Solid at the dish. Pitch framing on point. Better with runners…and not an overall dick with the staff like he was in San Diego. So far, Dodgers have won that trade.

I can now say I have attended a no hitter in person. :) Funny thing is, I was actually planning on going to the game Friday, not Saturday, but then I heard Scherzer's start was on Saturday and Harper was out Friday anyway so I figured I'd wait a day.

Really wanted the perfect game though. **** Tabata. It was weird, the no no almost felt...disappointing, just because we were soooo close to the perfect game and to lose it on a garbage HBP like that sucked. But still, no hitter is pretty damn amazing.

No better P in MLB right now than Scherzer. And Harper just keeps smashing homers. We're gonna get both the NL Cy Young and MVPs. Then again all that will do is make our inevitable first round playoff loss all the more painful.

That's cool that you got to see the no-hitter, but it's too bad that Tabata prevented the perfect game.

I'm not sure that I'm buying his story that it was unintentional.

Regardless, you picked the right game to attend to see a masterful pitching performance!
