Dodgers and Rockies Night at the Brawlpark
Walkoff Walk —
Matt Kemp Is Sensitive
FanHouse —
Filed under: Denver, Los Angeles, Rockies, Dodgers, NL West, MLB Video I can understand the frustration that the Dodgers and Rockies must be feeling right now. The Rockies have followed up their World Series berth with a competition against the Mariners for worst team in the league, and matters haven't been helped much by injuries to Troy Tulowitzki and Matt Holiday. For the Dodgers, they've lost nine of their last 12 games, and have about $50 million in payroll sitting on the disabled list right now. So when two ...
Around the Horn - 6/4
My Pinstripes —
There was a huge impact felt by a New York pitcher's start last night and it wasn't Joba Chamberlain. Pedro Martinez made his return to the Mets starting rotation and immediately gave them a lift, putting in a quality efforts in the Mets 9-6 win over the Giants. Pedro stepped on the mound for the first time since April 1, allowing 3 runs in 6 innings for his first won of the year and the 210th of his career. ...
Vin Scully calls it like he sees it
The Postmen // A Sports Blog // Chicago, IL. —
I think if Vin Scully narrated my daily life like the voice in that Will Ferrell movie Stranger than Fiction, I’d be OK with it. Well, actually, it would probably drive me up the wall. But the fact that I even entertained the idea of it, the very notion of my life being captioned by another man’s voice, means the dude holds some serious clout in my book. (Or at least in my blog. Because I don’t have a book.)
Case in point, Matt Kemp gets a little testy here over nothing, a brawl ensues and Scully just drops this one: “Oh, that’s too ...
Dodgers - Rockies Fight: Matt Kemp vs Yorvit Torrealba
FanIQ Blog —
It's little surprise that the Los Angeles Dodgers and Colorado Rockies are at their wit's end.
Joe Torre, Andruw Jones and some rising young talent were supposed to lead the Dodgers well over .500. Instead they've lost 9 of their last 12 and good chunk of the payroll remains disabled. The Colorado Rockies, who won 21 of 22 games at one point last season, have just reached the 21 win mark and have the worst record in the National League by three games.
When things aren't going well, fights are expected. You just don't expect them to be started like this. Matt Kemp went all Sensitive ...

Blue Heaven —
Overall, yesterday was a gloomy day. The sky was filled with clouds. It was chilly- unseasonable cold for a June day in Southern California. The recent weather sure seemed to foreshadow the evenings game, if not the Dodgers past couple of weeks. ...
Vin Scully and Troyfromwestvirginia on Matt Kemp
dodgerfan.net —
I recently came across two great YouTube videos - one with Vin Scully giving the play-by-play of the Matt Kemp vs. Yorvit Torrealba (a fight that I missed due to a family event) and another with our old friend TroyFromWestVirginia who decided to film 2.5 minutes of himself impersonating Matt Kemp sitting in the dugout with nothing to do. I’m not sure where he comes up with this stuff, but I’ll have to give the nod to ol’ Vin for his interpretation of the fight.
Matt and Yorvit go at it in Denver
