NLCS Game One: Phillies @ Dodgers
By
Two full days after the Phillies made a remarkable comeback against Huston Street and the Rockies in Game Four of the National League Division Series, the Championship is finally ready to get underway. It’s not as bad as the brutal four day layoff the Yankees and Angels have to endure, but it’s bad enough.
In case you forgot, this year’s NLCS is a rematch of last year’s NLCS, except the Dodgers have home field advantage this year, not the Phillies. Cole Hamels will start the series off for the Phightin’s, the same way he did last year. Los Angeles will counter with the Clayton Kershaw, who graduated high school just three years ago. Since their lineup is loaded with lefty power hitters, the Phillies might have their hands full with young southpaw, who held lefties to a .173-.237-.252 batting line this year.
TBS is carrying the game (and the entire series), with first pitch scheduled for 8:07pm ET. Here’s the lineups:
Philadelphia
Jimmy Rollins, SS
Shane Victorino, CF
Chase Utley, 2B
Ryan Howard, 1B
Jayson Werth, RF
Raul Ibanez, LF
Pedro Feliz, 3B
Carlos Ruiz, C
Cole Hamels, SP (10-11, 4.32 regular season)
Los Angeles
Rafael Furcal, SS
Matt Kemp, CF
Andre Ethier, RF
Manny Ramirez, LF
James Loney, 1B
Casey Blake, 3B
Ronnie Belliard, 2B
Russell Martin, C
Clayton Kershaw, SP (8-8, 2.79 regular season)
Use this thread to chat about the game, or whatever else you please. Just make sure you follow the guidelines and be cool to each other.
should be a good series.
How come no one has noticed that manny ramirez hasn’t hit a home run in eons?

OMFG BALLOON BOY!
AKA BOX IN ATTIC BOY!
Sounds like my dates. Aroused? Yes, very.
Brace yourself for some unconditional fawning at the greatness of Joe Torre..
he
– who negotiated his contract when Grady little was still manager
– who now has a new tiff with a new ownership
– who is the reason Ethier, Kemp, Kershaw, Billingsley matured
– who is the reason above 4 were drafted years back and waiting for Torre to uncork their potential
– who is so brilliant that he starts Padilla 2 times this series
oh by the way, Tom Verducci pack ur bags to LA, Joe Green tea is ready with his’ Dodger Year’ stories
the one where he will talk abt
– Manny’s female drugs
– Kemp’s tea habbit
– Ethier’s comb
anything else discussed in the clubhouse…
here come the lovers
Gammons said on yesterday’s Michael kay show that he’s miserable out there, and all sorts of shit will be coming out after the season.

Celebrity Jeopardy
Kareem Abdul Jabar: I went to UCLA for $400
Alex Trebek: This dude said this about this
KAJ: Who is Kareem Abdul Jabar?
AT: NO! You said it, but it was about Bill Walton!
I saw that. It was HILARIOUS. Best moment in Celebrity Jeopardy history that didn’t involve Will Ferrell or Darrell Hammond.
I am going to have to find this on Youtube at some point.
I would’ve given him that as an acceptable answer.
I was just trying to figure out what happened, then I realized that you guys most have taken down this post once? Either that or I’m going insane…..and you will be reaping all the benefits.
I hit publish by accident earlier.
You have shamed us all.
Had a 300 page book to read and essay to write on it by 11 tonight. I hadn’t even started the book yet. I ask the professor for an extention, he tells me its due at 11 no matter what. So, I tell the best looking girl in the class to ask the professor for more time. He extends the due date until Saturday night. AWESOME!
That’s…
Wow.
There was this girl in my Latin II class. Easily the best looking girl in the class, but also easily the worst at Latin. When called on she rarely got a question right, and in one-on-one dialog she was pretty bad.
I definitely peered over her shoulder and saw B+s and As on her tests and quizzes.

A. Do me, you Brutus of a professor.

Joe, did you read any Juvenal in your Latin classes?
/when well-born girls go crazy for pig-sticking upcountry . . .
Weird. Same thing happened to me except I tutored the girl, did some of her homework and expected to at least get a handy in exchange for the solid grades I got her. Nothing. The closest I ever got was her saying, “Leave me alone, stalker”. Was bad day.
To be fair, you were peering in her bedroom window from a ladder after she’d gone to bed.
Fames est optimus coquus.
Tu stultus es.
That’s the second time!
It looks like the rosters for the Dominican Winter League is slowing leaking out. Just Cleveland affiliated players are known, but I would guess there will be a flood of announcements tonight, being that the league starts tomorrow and all.
Just saw the TBS pregame for the first time ever:
Dennis Eckersley and David Wells look like morons. Fellas, go hire stylists.
Yeah, there’s a reason I don’t watch pregames
The sartorial selections of the co-hosts? Such a girl.
I don’t care how they look…I don’t watch them because they’re Eckersley and Wells.
They try to recreate their basketball studio crew. It doesn’t work. Barkley is the best. He says outrageous stuff, but he really, really knows his basketball. That’s where someone like Wells or Kruk falls short, they say outrageous things, but they’re idiots about their sport.
I know he’s not part of TBS’s baseball crew, but now that you made the comparison… Kenny Smith kind of reminds me of Harold Reynolds.
Tries to be interesting and informative, but for some reason I never really take him seriously.
Not sure if The Jet is a sexual harasser.
Excuse me, Andy, But when has Barkley ever made actual basketball points that were oblivious to anyone who studies the game. Yeah, he make points about the sport to those who never watch any other basketball related media other than the NBA on TNT events. He is without a doubt a racist basket case that everyone loves to laugh at.
He is without a doubt a racist basket case that everyone loves to laugh at.
Barkley is a “racist basket case”?
Examples/evidence, please? I missed that one.
Are you serious? WOW, this is really sad to see how the ever-hip and cool TSJC is blinded into naivety by his color shades of judgement.
Okay, I guess to be fair he’s not a hateful bigot but he does have a significant tendency to use race to argue his points outside the basketball arena. Most of his statements would easily be branded hateful racist retoric if he was not some goofy ex- ballplayer in a manner of other goofball ex-jocks.
Still, if you need examples there have been so many it’s hard to imagine you have never notice it before. But there was the incident of him claiming a large portion of McCain voters were racists; there was the time he went on a rant about his ex-college, Auburn signing a coach due mainly to racist school officials.
Also, he has claimed our former president George Bush was a racist and the list goes on and on.
All, in all, I ‘m not going to demand this guy to be fired but please don’t proclaim him anything more than a lovable goofy idiot. Although, at times he does say pretty smart stuff on the game of basketball.
Are you serious? WOW, this is really sad to see how the ever-hip and cool TSJC is blinded into naivety by his color shades of judgement.
Okay, I guess to be fair he’s not a hateful bigot…
So, then, your original statement that he’s a “racist basket case” was wrong, then. Thanks for being up front about it.
…but he does have a significant tendency to use race to argue his points outside the basketball arena.
Doesn’t make him a racist. Speaking about racial issues does not make him a racist. Race influences and impacts America in a great number of ways, so using race to argue his points is neither racist nor wrongheaded.
Most of his statements would easily be branded hateful racist retoric if he was not some goofy ex- ballplayer in a manner of other goofball ex-jocks.
I doubt that.
Still, if you need examples there have been so many it’s hard to imagine you have never notice it before. But there was the incident of him claiming a large portion of McCain voters were racists
A large portion of them ARE racists.
there was the time he went on a rant about his ex-college, Auburn signing a coach due mainly to racist school officials.
There is significant reason to believe Turner Gill, a black man married to a white woman, played a large factor in Auburn not choosing to hire him. Barkley is not the only one who has spoken out on that issue; just the other day, ESPN Outside the Lines did a show about the topic. Are they racists too?
Also, he has claimed our former president George Bush was a racist and the list goes on and on.
I’d like to see the specific text of that. Was he talking about Bush specifically, or about the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, which is a more intricate issue and which is most definitely racially tinged? Elaborate.
All, in all, I ‘m not going to demand this guy to be fired but please don’t proclaim him anything more than a lovable goofy idiot.
I didn’t. I didn’t proclaim him anything. YOU proclaimed him a racist basket case, and then immediately backtracked from that. So, whatevs.
I see a golden cross-over opportunity…
Coming up on the next episode of Project Runway, baseball announcers who are tired of a wardrobe as dumb as their comments!
Any picks for NLCS MVP?
Nick Swisher.
Nah, he is my AL Cy Young and NL Rookie of the Year pick.
Manny.
Can’t beat that ERA.
ethier
No, you have to pick one.

Kershaw
No matter who wins this series, we’ll be seeing dishtowels in the WS. So sad.
That’s OK, I plan on bringing my pots and pans to the ballpark.
Yup.
You’re talking about Manny and Pedro, right?
Who but?
A baseball game?!?! What sort of novel concept is this?!!
I H-A-T-E these long breaks between series. Ruins the flow of everything. You just start forgetting about Baseball, and then they play again.
Yeah. Couldn’t they have pushed each series up a few days, once the combatants were known?

Phillies or Dodgers? Who do you want to play?
@jaydestro said it well on Twitter:
Not sure I could handle the emotional consequences of Mattingly win a World Series in a uniform other than the Yankees
Mattingly is a jinx.
Jinxes are the hobgoblins of inferior minds.
Ok.
Don Mattingly is a coincidence.
Nick Swisher is a causation.
Like rain on your wedding day.
Dodgers. I think it was TSJC who said something along the lines of “Monster destroying the one who created it.”
I don’t remember ever saying anything like that.
FWIW, though, I did have Yankees over Dodgers as my projection back in April.
http://riveraveblues.com/2009/.....ent-319452
Sorry for the misattribution. I can’t remember who said it then, maybe I completely made that up. Who knows what goes on in my head.
I want to see Yanks-Dodgers because of the historical stuff. Phillies are a better matchup I think. All those lefty hitters against CC and Andy, shitty bullpen, not much SP beyond Lee and Hamels.
The thing about the Phils that I like is the lack of a 6 hour plane ride.
Lee and Hamels are a better front two than the Dodgers have though.
Either way, we have the advantage but they are both very good teams.
Dodgers.
I want to see Tex make Padilla cry.
Dodgers, because I want to win and they’re the lesser team. From a purely Baseball standpoint, they’re the easier draw. I really don’t give a fuck about Torre and all the sidebar drama, I’ll leave that up to the media.
I actually heard Kay say today that ‘many in the Yankee brass don’t want to face Torre’ for fear of the embarrassment if he won. It was some of the worst thinking I’ve ever heard.
There’s the first “fisted” of the night!
Sunday was so long ago I’d almost forgotten about fisting balls.
TMI
… nah, too easy.
Ooooof. Manny is fucking shot.
It’s sad that 45 F is actually warmer than it is outside.
THE FUCKITy FUCK FUCK BATMAN!?
Chip doesn’t seem as excited with the Twins not playing.
In response to the constant (justified) criticism of the announcers in baseball: I wouldn’t exactly call MNF’s experiment with Dennis Miller a success, but I’m not sure the model is wrong. Why not add someone to inject a little humor (intentional, that is) into a broadcast and a personality that is willing to call out the others on the stupid, often inaccurate crap they say?
Frank Caliendo.
George Lopez.
BOOM
I can’t believe I’m about to say this, but, maybe that wouldn’t be the worst idea ever. Bad idea? Probably, but it might not be broadcast genocide.
I’m thinking if we’re going to get batshit insane, why not Emmitt Smith? He’s likely to be legitimately retarded, he’s funny as hell and he has a short fuse.
Given who they hire as announcers, they’d get Dane Cook. He’s the Red Sox of comedians.
(On a serious note, I’d vote for Tracy Morgan.)
On a sad note, anyone who thinks Tracy Morgan is funny enough to be elected to such a special opportunity.
Tracy morgan, really?!?!
/Kyle’d
I’m with ROBTEN.
Tracy Morgan = Funny
tsjc= real bad taste in comedians
To each his own, I guess.
He’s hilarious on 30 Rock and had his moments on SNL.
I’m Brian Fellows!!!!!!!

sWhy not just have announcers that don’t say stupid, often inaccurate crap?
That’s getting greedy.
But sometimes, greed is good (sfw)

This Juwan Howard one was good for a few laughs.
http://www.theonion.com/conten....._meal_free
He’s not 37 because he didn’t play till later in his career.
There’s Loney’s power!
That’s just the second homer Loney’s hit at home all year. Eight in the last two seasons now.
dodgers are hitting bombs, even the outs, against Hamels.
Mets have a new set of bricks to sell, if anyone’s interested.
https://secure.mlb.com/nym/ballpark/citifield_fanwalk_form.jsp
I know what you’re thinking, but they’re really, really nice bricks. The type you be proud to have hold down a stack of papers that you have no intention of ever going through on your desk.
They’re counting on Seinfeld buying 20,000 of them.
At $400 a piece, that’s about what he earns standing around breathing for 3 minutes.
Cole Hamels looks like he auditioned for a role in Twilight before the game.
“C’mon Cole. You got to pound the outside!”
I’d make a comment but Ashmore would kill me.
Funny, this showed up as a comment.
He looks like he appeals to teenage girls?
Manny goes yard this inning.
Who are the announcers for today’s game in LA?
Chip Caray, Buck Martinez, and Ron Darling.
http://www.sportspickle.com/ar.....er-yankees
Better than George Lopez…
Ah, of course, what would a TBS series be without all the fisting..
ruiz murdered that ball
wow
Carlos Ruiz-wood.
Cole Hamels: feared at the plate.
That doesn’t happen very often, I think Kershaw is a little roughed up after the shot by Ruiz.
This game just got out of hand fast.
It really jumped up a notch!
Yeah, there were horses, and a man on fire, and I killed a guy with a trident.
Yea, ROBTEN, I’ve been meaning to talk to you about that. You should find yourself a safehouse or a relative close by. Lay low for a while. You’re probably wanted for murder.

Man, I do anything to avoid studying.
That’s bush league. If you were a man, I’d punch you. I’d punch you right in the mouth.
Joe Torre = Grady Little
Kershaw was flat out not effective. So far, 90 pitches and it was about a 50/50 B/S Ratio.
Are you saying he’s not concentrating out there? Not focused? Should be in AAA? Not a big game pitcher? Feels like he can’t lose his rotation spot? Too big of an ego? etc etc
Don’t blow it, Cole.
You’re in the process of blowing it, Cole.
Blown.
I wish Caray would’ve gotten half as excited for Rodriguez/Teixeira’s homers as he did for that one.
He’s gonna blow it.
Wow. That was Knoblauchian.
Chase…seriously? Wtf?
Did they just play “Mr. Brightside” for Manny?
I hate that whole towel thing. They never did that in Brooklyn. Asses. I’m so glad we don’t do that crap in the Bronx.
Not as bad as the ‘terrible towel’
It’s about time Manny did that to someone other than the Yankees.
Manny performs on cue.
That’s on you, Chase.
Nah, I think Ethier would have been safe anyhow. All it did was give Hamels the luxury of an open base.
Surprise he threw him a breaking ball there considering Manny has had trouble catching to the fastball.
Manny Ramirez is good at baseball.
:looks up, thanks Mo that Manny isn’t on Boston anymore:
wow that FOX gun is messed up
it just said cole hamels threw 99!!!
HAHA
TBS i mean
Since when are the Bearcats ranked 8th? Maybe the Big East isn’t so craptastic anymore.
And I’m getting very tired of this Blackberry ad.
Cinci, WVA, UConn, USF, Rutgers, Louisville, Pitt… they’ve got some decent quality teams there. Syracuse is the only real pushover.
The thing that holds them back is that they’re only an 8 team football conference… they should have at least 10 teams to really have a larger national presence, or better yet 12 to have a championship game; but they have 8 more teams in the conference for basketball that don’t have a D1 football team (except for ND), so they can’t really add 2 or 4 more football teams without making the basketball conference more unworkably large than it already is.
tommie, who is the best wide receiver in this class, Dez Bryant?
Nick Swisher.
Damnit man, can’t you be serious!
Fine.
Jeff Adrien.
Oh and, no, I can’t.
Bryant is the most physical, I’d say. Reminds me of a Dwayne Bowe; he’s a bit shorter but a bit faster, but the game is similar.
I’d say:
1) Bryant
2) Arrelious Benn
3) Marty Gilyard
4) Brandon LaFell
5) Patrick Williams
A good 40 time at the combine can push any of them right up to the top, though.
Yeah, I’m a big fan of Dez.
Thanks for the input.
It’s not a super dynamite class, though. I’d say maybe three of them can be first rounders, tops. I’d be surprised if more than, say, 7 WRs go in the first two rounds.
What position(s) would you say is the deepest in this class?
Trying to make it to the draft this year, depending on if some friends can figure out their schedules.
I love the depth on the D-Line, both DE and DT.
Carlos Dunlap, Greg Hardy, Brandon Graham, George Selvie, Jason Worldis, Jeremy Beal, Ricky Sapp, Corey Wooten, Jerry Hughes, Eric Moncur at DE.
Ndamukong Suh, Gerald McCoy, Terrance Cody, Arthur Jones, Geno Atkins, Boo Robinson, Vince Oghobaase, Jeff Fitzgerald at DT.
Arrelious is such an awesome name.
good to know that i was the cause of manny breaking out of the slump
http://riveraveblues.com/2009/.....ent-627042
The good thing here is, if Hamels ends up blowing this lead, it plays right into the Phillies strengths.
/Kruk’d
Because the Phillies have little to no weakness.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand hamels is walking himself right into trouble
i guess he is now walking right into the showers
Dodgers win this game.
I’ll be honest, outside of Lidge, I don’t trust that Phillies BP, and that’s not saying much.
You trust Lidge?
Cole…wtf? I’m not happy with you right now. I expected this from JA Haap…not you.
So, Jon Heyman says
“There is growing sentiment around baseball that Joba Chamberlain will be a reliever next year, especially after he looked great in that role in the Division Series.”
He pitched less than 2 innings. Unbelievable. The B-Jobbers will seize on anything.
Some guy I was talking to the other night was like ‘Joba doesn’t have to think out there! That’s where he belongs! He can just do what he does, throw!”
My response:
http://chrisoleary.com/project.....06_002.jpg
Didn’t post but
(insert picture of David Cone here)
“There is growing sentiment around baseball” = “I think this following statement is true, and I only talk to other idiots who also think it’s true, so I’m running with it”
Also I kind of doubt people throughout baseball are sitting around wondering what Joba Chamberlain’s 2010 role with the Yankees will be. I hate these fuckers.
And even if they were wondering, who gives a fuck if they’re not with the Yankees? The Yankees are committed to him being a starter–as they should be.
But, how can you guys deny growing sentiment?
I mean, it’s sentiment.
And, for mo’s sake, it’s growing!
“There is growing sentiment around baseball that Joba Chamberlain will be a reliever next year, especially after he looked great in that role in the Division Series.”
There is growing sentiment around Capitol Hill that the health care reform bill will include Death Panels, especially after a careful reading of the bill doesn’t specifically ban or outlaw Death Panels.
Love the Death Panels.
http://www.theonion.com/conten.....would_give
there is a growing sentiment around RAB that tsjc hates conservatives and can’t comprehend how to make fun of liberals.
I’m not getting into that out of respect for the blog commenters who want to refrain from political discussions.
If you can find a liberal example of large groups of people latching onto a meme that is laughably stupid like the Death Panels thing was, give it to me and I’ll be glad to make fun of it relentlessly.
I’m not getting into that out of respect for the blog commenters who want to refrain from political discussions.
….ummm, then why do YOU always bring politics into this conservation, tsjc? Seriously, you are without doubt an intellectual fellow but never can find anything to mock on the left. I know assurdly you could find plenty to riddicule the left but will never attempt because you get your news from unbiased sources like NBC. And no
and no I’m not some right-wing Fox news nut, either smart guy. So don’t even bother with some tired joke on that subject.
All I ask is some respect for conservative bloggers that you riddicule every chance you get.
All I ask is some respect for conservative bloggers that you riddicule every chance you get.
What conservative bloggers do I ridicule? Glenn Beck? I ridicule him because he’s a moron and everyone knows it, even conservatives. And for the record, earlier this week in a convo about broadcasting v. narrowcasting, I chided both Beck and Olbermann for pandering to counterintellectualism when contrasted with someone like Bill Moyers on PBS.
I have a problem not with conservatives, but with counterintellectualism. Many modern conservative voices have latched on to counterintellectualism for reasons that are beyond me. When you say dumn shit, you are therefore subject to ridicule.
If somebody thinks the President is supporting a health care bill that plans on systematically killing elderly people you should be mocked.

http://tinyurl.com/yhfnhcr
And I don’t always bring politics into the conversation, for the record. Making fun of dumb people for being dumb enough to believe that death panels are real is not “bringing politics into the conversation”.
It’s bringing DUMB PEOPLE into the conversation. There’s a difference. I respect people for having any political viewpoint they choose, but I don’t respect people for being dumb and refusing to choose to be smart.

Opinions on Joe Torre? Or am I too late for that.
Good guy, decent manager but highly overrated, stepped into the right place at the right time.
Does the book he wrote change the way you feel about him?
Didn’t read it.
absolutely!! His image of being a descent, honest and honrable man went down the toilet after his cowardice and traitorous actions in his disgusting tell-all book. Lost a lot of respect for #6.
Miguel Cairo pinch hitting, I never thought i’d hear that.
Is there still no word on what the deal for tomorrow is? I’m not in New York but from looking at everything its seems a certainty there won’t be baseball in the Bronx
Via LoHud:
Rain and drizzle will be in the New York metro area most of the day on Friday before the Angels and the Yankees meet for Game 1. Temperatures will be in the low 40s by the scheduled game time, but with the moisture and winds ranging from 20 to 25 mph, RealFeel Temperatures are expected to be in the mid-20s.
Well, what do you expect, they’re not going to postpone the game a full day in advance, they’re going to pray to Mo that a window opens up so they can get the game in.
Yea….what day you think they actually get game 1 in?
Dunno.

rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrraul ibanez says fuck yo couch sherril
Was Joe sleeping in the dugout when Sherrill walked the first two batters of the game? How do you leave that reliever in there in a 1-run game?
I am always surprised when Torre is not sleeping in the dugout…
You know how those senior citizens love their naps…
Is this another one of your liberal “jokes” about death panels, smart guy? Maybe if you stopped watching NBC news for two minutes you’d find something to really joke about, like global warming.
