    Most likely. Although I could see them pulling out a surprise extra innings win vs the Orioles.

    Changing the game is a great idea, the NFL has been changing things and just look at how well their ratings did this year....

    That's how it's done in my beer softball league. If it works for old guys softball, it can work for MLB, right? Maybe next they can start every batter with a 1-1 count.

    Always cracks me up when in those situations when dudes tighten up and act like it is game 7 of the world series. I can't tell you how many times I've watched that guy just sit on 2B the whole fucking inning and not even move.

    SportsNet LA’s preseason coverage concludes with the three-game exhibition Freeway Series from March 30-April 1.

    SportsNet LA will carry a game every Saturday throughout Spring Training, home and road contests against the Chicago Cubs, and the Dodgers’ first night game of the spring — against the San Francisco Giants at Scottsdale Stadium on Wednesday, March 1.

    Joe Davis and Orel Hershiser return to the booth to call Cactus League games, and Charley Steiner and Rick Monday will also handle duties for designated games.

    Coverage during Spring Training will include SportsNet LA’s flagship program, Access SportsNet: Dodgers, which will air live on Wednesday, Feb. 15 at 7 p.m. PT, to recap pitchers and catchers reporting.

    The program will air a new live episode five days a week throughout the spring. Access SportsNet: Dodgers will feature the latest Dodgers news, highlights and exclusive interviews with players, coaches and staff.

    John Hartung, Alanna Rizzo and Kelli Tennant will host the program, with Orel Hershiser, Nomar Garciaparra, Jerry Hairston Jr. and Ned Colletti providing analysis.

    I'm southern Italian, I've been mistaken for Puerto Rican many times believe it or not. I'm not taking any chances.

    If I had to put them in order of best chance to rebound I'd go Kaz, McCarthy, and Ryu.

    I've been too lazy to look into it, but how the hell would they even standardize it? Last out starts on second base? I can already imagine all the times we'll get stuck with Adrian leading off the inning at second.
