Is it just nine times? The Cardinals won Games 1 and 2 with the day off in-between in 1996, 2000, 2002 and 2004.
Confused yet?
I don't.
And people wonder why they went 82-80 in a terrible division.
PACIFIC TIME
Odd. I didn't think that Johnson guy was on their playoff roster.
Being a West Coast resident, I don't mind the 8 pm start.
Actually, that works perfectly for me. I'm going to visit my folks for the weekend, and we're having a nice dinner on Saturday, the kind that you don't want to pollute with television. With that start time, it's cocktails, then dinner, then a healthy pour of Scotch and settling in to watch the first pitch.

The Padres' playoff roster can be figured out almost by looking at the Game 1 box score. Just about everyone except Hoffman and the other SPs made it into Tuesday's game.
10 starts for the padres, 3.17 era,

And you think that's his actual skill level?
What did LaRussa say? Pujols?
Context. If you are evaluating for a contract during the offseason, you don't look at his recent record in 10 games of course.
If you are picking from available, rested, and healthy starters, you look at the last 10 games plenty and ride the hot streaks.
He could win todays game. He has as good a chance as any other Padres starter. That does not make it a good chance. But no worse than any other options they have right now.
nope, but it's not like they are benching Oswalt or Pettite in favor of Astacio, their next best starter was Eaton, who posted a 4.27 era, or Lawrence who posted a 4.83 era this season, both are worse than Astacios career average(and both eaton and lawrence pitched like garbage the last month, so it's not like it's a bad decision)
I'm so good I scare myself sometimes.

Any wish that involves the 8th and 9th place hitters on a poor National League team making outs will usually be granted.
nobody I have talked to thinks he is/deserves the gold glove this year, just that he is very good.
Both ESPN and ESPN2 just went black for me...all my other stations are working
damn Channel 11 must have gotten in trouble, yesterday they put their logo right over the espn logo, today it doesn't look like that is the case. (of course I could be remembering it wrong)
What do you mean? You've baffled me.
I think it's okay to call Pujold Gold Glove Caliber, as he plays the position well enough to win. There's just a guy who plays it better at this time.
Why do the Cardinals always seem to get short-dicked by television coverage. We must provide a better audience than the Angels or the Astros I would think. Yet every year we get stuck in the crappy non-prime time spots.
I suppose I should be thankful that:
1) we are in the playoffs every year
2) we are at least on ESPN2 this year instead of Family Channel or whatever it was last year
3) the Padres suck eggs
the announcer was talking about people 'touting' Albert for the gold glove, I don't think I've heard anyone saying that Albert deserves the gold glove over lee, I've heard people say he is gold glove caliber defender, and I have no problem with that, but to say that people are 'touting' him just seems to be wrong to me.
I know Cardinal announcers, and writers think someday in the future that Albert will win a few gold gloves, just don't think that future is this year.
2nd, and 3rd one out, Eckstein up, hits a hard hit ball that the first baseman dives and fields, he gets up and throws the ball to the plate, catcher sweep tags Nunez sliding in, Umpire called the runner safe. on replays, in my opinion it is too close to say whether the ump was right or wrong.
Still, though, bases loaded one out should turn into more than one run (regardless what happened before they got loaded).
I know I'm certainly not in that camp. Yeah, I would have liked for them to have tacked on another 1 or 2. But the 2 that did cross the plate are better than none.

He wouldn't have been out at first, considering the fact that nobody covered.

By the way, with a 3 game sweep, the Padres would go back to being under .500 for the season, worse if they did not get to beat up the detritus that is the Rockies, D-backs, Giants, and Dodgers so often.
If Pujols ever reaches the level of his play in national popularity, the Cards will be on in prime time more often, I'd guess.
It would be interesting to see what would happen without the Yankees or Red Sox involved.
Another play at the plate? Please decribe for those of us stuck with no TV at work.
see post 51, with the exception it wasn't a diving play by the first baseman, and it wasn't that close, the throw beat the runner home but the catcher doesn't block the plate and makes a high tag. He caught it about his head level, and then tried to tag the runner, doesn't block the plate, Grudz makes a good slide and he was safe.
squeeze play for another run.
AO
Doesn't look like it, unless Isringhausen comes in.
:)
sorry, that's dumb. I've been busy all day and am about to collapse. Go Cards!
see post 62.
As in game 1, the Padres are getting runners on every inning, but double plays are killing the Pads.
Lord help us all if Burger King comes in -- he has been absolutely horrible, allowing .400 batting average against with runners on base, which doesn't even account for his frequent walks and hit batsmen.
