Let's get it on! Post your thoughts, bets, smack here.
Peavy will be tough, but I think the Cards hang on in 5. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

ESPN has already managed to miss showing both 3-2 pitches so far.
First was coming back from a replay and the second showing the baserunner instead.

I'm relying on the MLB playoff radio package. Well worth the $9.95 IMO, since I can't get TV at my office.

Joe Morgan is consistent, if nothing else.
"I don't think the Padres are intimidated"
"Well, they DID win the season series against the Cards."
"Yeah, but I don't put much stock in that."

Definately out.
One inning for first missed call.

Brilliant, Eckstein.

Morgan at least got the call right.

Morgan on the Eckstein error:
"That's one of the problems with day games. Sometimes you lose the ball."
"Well the sun is over the right field fence"
"It definately wasn't the sun"

Ugh, and yet another inning-ending double play.

This is horrible. Did the Cards hit 1 ball hard that inning?

i'm listening to it on the radio at work. this game is over, but the series is over when the first team has won 3 games.
remember how the Cardinals were supposed to kill the winner of the ALCS? IIRC they got sweeped, so stranger things have happened.

i smell a comeback...
This game is a heck of a lot closer than it looks. If you go by errors, it's a tie ball game.

A little Dizzy entertainment during intermission:
Quotes by Dizzy Dean
"It ain't braggin' if you can back it up."
"Anybody who's ever had the privilege of seeing me play knows that I am the greatest pitcher in the world."
"I ain't what I used to be, but who the hell is?"
"I won twenty-eight games in 1935 and I couldn't believe my eyes when the Cards send me a contract with a cut in salary. Mr. Rickey said I deserved a cut because I didn't win thirty games."
"It puzzles me how they know what corners are good for filling stations. Just how did they know gas and oil was under there?"
"Let the teachers teach English and I will teach baseball. There is a lot of people in the United States who say 'isn't' and they ain't eating."
"Mr. Rickey, I'll put more people in the park than anybody since Babe Ruth."
"Son, what kind of pitch would you like to miss?"
""Sure I eat what I advertise. Sure I eat Wheaties for breakfast. A good bowl of Wheaties with bourbon can't be beat."
"The doctors x-rayed my head and found nothing."
"The dumber a pitcher is, the better. When he gets smart and tries to experiment with a lot of different pitches, he's in trouble. All I ever had was a fastball, a curve and a change up and I did pretty good."
"The good Lord was good to me. He gave me a strong body, a good right arm and a weak mind."
"He slud into third."
"Well what's wrong with ain't? And as for saying 'Rizzuto slud into second' it just ain't natural. Sounds silly to me. Slud is something more than slid. It means sliding with great effort."
Quotes about Dizzy Dean
"When ole Diz was out there pitching it was more than just another ball game. It was a regular three-ring circus and everybody was wide awake and enjoying being alive."
-- Pepper Martin
"You were attracted by the graceful rhythm of his pitching motion; the long majestic sweep of his arm as he let the ball fly; the poised alertness after the pitch. That was what counted and you knew it when batter after batter swung ineptly at pitches they couldn't even see."
-- Editor of the New York Times
"As a ballplayer, (Dizzy) Dean was a natural phenomenon, like the Grand Canyon or the Great Barrier Reef. Nobody ever taught him baseball and he never had to learn. He was just doing what came naturally when a scout named Don Curtis discovered him on a Texas sandlot and gave him his first contract."
-- Red Smith

The injury apparently happened during the celebration after they clinched the West. I don't even know where to start on that one. Glad I'm not a Padres fan, I'd be pissed.

just in general? or because the west sucks?
Peavy may be done. Surprisingly enough he hasnt actually said that he's out yet. Said he might pitch anyway. I dont think he will be able to pitch well with a broken rib, but you never know.

Won't matter, because there isn't going to be a game 4 for him to pitch anyway.

I think they just knew better than to surface for this series. But hey, they finished about .500, how about that!
The fun part will be shutting up the Braves or Astros fans. Both equally enjoyable.
