Bing…

Bang…

Boom.

I don’t want to take anything away from Ted Lilly, who was masterful in his season debut against a lousy Padres team by allowing just two hits and a run over seven innings. But whenever Matt Kemp & Andre Ethier can ruin someone’s big league debut by taking him deep three times before he can even get six outs, yeah, you better believe they’re going to get top billing.

The Dodgers are 8-1. Yes, the Padres are atrocious, and the Dodgers have a lot of question marks. But still, 8-1, with two of the best hitters in the game right now. No, I can’t believe it either. But I’m loving every second of it.
