NLDS Game 3 Chat
Los Angeles Dodgers at St. Louis Cardinals, Oct 10, 2009 3:07 PM PDT
Today's game will determine whether the next start for Chris Carpenter will be on three days rest or 179 days rest.
Vicente Padilla and Joel Pineiro have started against one another just one previous time in their career. On April 20, 2006, Padilla allowed just one run over seven innings for the Rangers, while Pineiro allowed three runs in 5.1 innings for the Mariners. Neither pitcher got a decision in the 4-3 Texas win. Pineiro appeared as a reliever twice in games started by Padilla, and Padilla won both games.
Here are the lineups:
| Dodgers | Cardinals | |||
| SS | Furcal |
2B | Schumaker | |
| CF | Kemp | RF | Ludwick |
|
| RF | Ethier |
1B | Pujols | |
| LF | Manny |
LF | Holliday | |
| 1B | Loney | CF | Rasmus | |
| 3B | Blake | C | Molina |
|
| 2B | Belliard | 3B | DeRosa | |
| C | Martin | SS | Ryan | |
| P | Padilla | P | Pineiro |

Well, everyone has been very sweet.
And it’s funny, but after spending a season participating in game threads it just seems odd to watch a game without a laptop and an internet conversation about the action.

Not entirely sure.
He was responsible for the outfielders and they made some uncharacteristic gaffes, also responsible for the baserunners who did the same, but the hitting coach should have gone ahead of anyone else.
I’m sad to see him go, though – he was a funny guy and I think well liked. He’ll get another job soon enough. I think he’d make a good broadcaster.
Miguel Cabrera might be either crushed or relieved, though – hard to tell from the picture in this post. :)

Hey Eric,
do you think that if this goes to a game 5, Torre might consider pitching Kershaw for that game instead of Wolf? Only because maybe he knows that Clayton has the best stuff out of our starters and the fact that Randy struggled a bit in game 1. What do you think?
by desecrator09 on Oct 10, 2009 3:00 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
well hopefully it doesnt go to 5
but id pick kershaw

Still think he would start Wolf, but would have a quick hook if needed.
by Eric Stephen on Oct 10, 2009 3:01 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
honestly
if it did go 5, the Dodgers wouldn’t care who started as much cause it’s our bullpen that carries us; we’d use them 3-9th if had to….must win at that pt.

the bullpen pitching from the 3rd inning on. Thats pretty crazy but I think we’re the only team who can pull that off!!

Just thought I’d point that out, as a pre-emptive counterweight to all the commentary we’ve heard about, “What’s gone wrong for the Cardinals.”

I do not like the Cardinals.
But I have to admit it was pretty classy of the fans to give Holliday an ovation. No point in kicking a man when he is down if you very much need his bat.

by desecrator09 on Oct 10, 2009 3:11 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Per Wikipedia
Kemp’s nickname is “The Bison.”6 During the second major league game of Kemp’s career, on May 29, 2006, he stole second base in the fourth inning, after which Atlanta Braves television announcer Don Sutton said he looked “like a big buffalo running around the bases.” The observation was appropriate due to Kemp’s imposing size and surprisingly fast footspeed. The nickname was modified to “The Bison,” by the commenter D4P on the popular Dodger blog, Dodger Thoughts7, as it is a more proper term for the North American mammal to which the moniker refers.
The D4P part might piss off Phil

fans in parkas?!?
It’s only 58 degrees! Jacket, definitely – probably gloves, maybe a hat too, but parkas?
Either the Cardinals fans are weather wimps or the announcers have no clue about which they speak.

I keep thinking that Padilla is going to get all fired up
and just plunk a batter for no reason .

Good thinking
what are they going to hit Manny, Kemp, and Ethier :)
That’s a lot of walks

Wasn’t that Drysdale? Why waste four pitches when you can put a guy on with one?
by satinhammer on Oct 10, 2009 4:09 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
nice challenge Padilla
its the right approach in that situation vs. just about any hitter I think
by DodgerGlue on Oct 10, 2009 4:08 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
PADILLA WINS!
RT @Fox_Sports_MW: Pineiro’s allowed 5 HR in last 14 innings… 7 HR in 1st 203 innings this year.
