A’s 7, Dodgers 1: USMNT is into the round of 16 at the World Cup!

(Via @USMNT) Hello, everybody.

I put the same amount of effort into this recap as the Dodgers did in trying to win.

It's a great game to do it because I'm still jacked to the tits over USMNT advancing anyway.

Almost Heaven.

Anyway, the Dodgers now come home for a four-game series against the Padres on MLB Network at 4:10 PM HT/7:10 PM PT/10:10 PM ET.

It'll be Roki Sasaki facing the same team for the second time in a week, and he'll be up against Randy Vasquez doing the same.
