Not that Garland should get off for giving up a 3 run homer but….
D Eckstein reached on infield single to third. 0 1
A Gonzalez popped out to shortstop. 0 1
C Headley singled to right, D Eckstein to second. 0 1
W Venable flied out to right, D Eckstein to third. 0 1
K Kouzmanoff homered to left, D Eckstein and C Headley scored. 0 4
N Hundley struck out looking.
Eckstein should have been labeled an error since any competent 3rd baseman makes the play. That was a clear error on Loretta, and if it was the game was at DS, they’d give Loretta the error.
If Eckstein was retired, Venable would have been the 3rd out, and Garland would likely still be pitching.

Maybe not a great All-Star, but not a Manny Parra. And the Padres have been one of the best teams in MLB the last five weeks. I’m not surprised frankly.

Jason Hammel got his 10th win tonight. That makes the Rockies the first team to have five starting pitchers with 10+ wins since the 2006 World Series Champion St. Louis Cardinals, who also had the worst record among NL playoff teams that year, who also got swept in the World Series in 2006, who also had Jason Marquis on their roster.

By the way
I realize he’s struggling and it’s a LHP road game, but seriously – Ethier 7th? That’s about as bad as Kemp 8th.

Ethier is 1 for his last 31 or something like that
I woulda liked if he got the night off

I actually expected him to sit tonight. It was puzzling to see him bat 7th. Torre is just trying to mix it up I guess </grasping at straws>

If Ethier sat, it’s either Pierre starting, or Repko…..

Sitting him makes sense
Batting him 7th is a little weird

Perhaps
if they got the Padres drunk on the bubbly they could sneak in a few more walks.

He won't because Loretta will botch an easy DP ball and then allow all three base runners to score.

Are we seriously blowing up our heads
considering, if we suck, the Phils take the lead, we play St. Louis
if we rule, Phils come in second we play St. Louis
if we loose the division, Phils come in first, we play St. Louis
If we win the division, Phils come in first, we play St. Louis
If we suck enough for Phils to come in first, loose the division, we play the Phils
Can somebody please tell me why any of this matters? Especially where the worst case scenario is we play the Phils instead of St. Louis?
by Dodger Dude on Sep 30, 2009 9:39 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
I have to believe that the Phils will rest their guys this weekend
They have played most of the year and the Phils have a 3 game lead over the Cards.
