NLDS Game Four Discussion Thread, Phillies at Rockies, October 12, 2009

Philadelphia Phillies at Colorado Rockies, Oct 11, 2009 10:07 PM EDT


One more game to go!

The Phillies look to Game One victor Cliff Lee to close out the series against the Rockies, who counter with their own ace, Ubaldo Jimenez.  Game temperature will be somewhere above "can't feel my fingers," which is good stuff.

A Phillies victory would catapult them to an NLCS rematch with the Los Angeles Dodgers, starting in California on Thursday.  A loss would send this series back to Philadelphia for a decisive Game Five.

Discuss the game below.

came home to TBS bald dudes wailing about umps. On talk radio this a.m. I believe Angelo Cataldi on WIP brought up point that Utley once was ruled out on a play that he had stopped running on when it hit him.

Let’s go Phillies.
There were two times before when the Phillies clinched a best-of-five series on the road: 1980 in Houston and 2008 in Milwaukee. We all know how those years ended.

I think I like Organic because I only have to really count to 4. Cause that’s all the bonds carbon has. And if you don’t know why something reacts like is does, the answer is nearly always miscibility, polarity or resonance. :)

you are so right. But i had an argument about Lidge today with a friend. He makes the claim that Lidge will not blow a save this post season if we win it all, using last year as a measure stick and completely disregarding this year.

Feliz

I saw him at bat on MLB TV today from a 2003 game vs. the Marlins. At least he was out there trying to beat those damn Marlins. I hadn’t realized he was on the Giants roster for the 2002 postseason (went 0-5 in the Series) but his division series stats were okay from 2003. Postseason LDS in four years his average going into today’s game is .296. LCS average: .143. And World Series average: .261. Overall postseason to date: .250. No home runs and including last night’s walk he has walked three times in 25 postseason games.

I can’t believe he threw him a change up.

With the way Ibanez has been seeing the ball, that was a ballsy call. Borderline stupid, but it worked out, so it gets the tag “ballsy.”

I would probably have to insult a specific race to be a racist.

Meanwhile, does Werth look a bit pissed off to anyone else?

After he got back in he dugout, he was kind of staring a hole through whoever was in front of him.

Utley got the same stare after Werth almost ran him over in the outfield, and he’s been looking rather upset at himself after his previous at bats.

I think Werth should be made angry some more. Colorado wouldn’t like him when he’s angry. Though I did see him crack a bit of a smile a couple minutes after the home run.

I would guess that chanting a guys name while he is trying to hit would be very distracting and not very helpful.

Think back to times when you would be talking to someone and someone would keep repeating your name trying to interrupt, how annoying is that!

Well, I think teams are pretty interested in selling their brand when they get national exposure. It can lead to a lot of revenue even if you just pick up a couple thousand causal fans over a series. Having biased announcers for the other team will prevent, for instance, that person in Idaho who is watching because nothing else on TV is on and may start rooting for the Rockies just because.
