I would guess that the passed ball was a case of Molina not keeping his eye on the ball. Yes, he wanted a high fastball and it ended up being a breaking ball in the dirt, but it looked like for a brief instant he took his eye off the ball as it was coming in - most likely to see what the baserunners were doing. It was a mistake on his part, but didn't really have much of an effect on the outcome of the game.

without the passed ball, Loney is running from home second on the Loretta single. Loney is a good baserunner, but it is possible that there could have been a play at the plate. The Loretta single was short and fielded on the run. You are probably correct, though.

That's freaking low, man. LOW. How DARE you speak of St. Tommy that way?!

You are really, really uptight, Tim.

Non-Dodger fans wish they had someone as colorful and beloved in their organization as Tom Lasorda.

If it is wrong to have a man crush on Andre Ethier, I don't want to be right.

I will admit mine for both he and Kemp.....

This is karma for Albert Pujols being a drug cheater. ManRam paid his penance and now he is being blessed. Pujols has basically been a non-factor in this entire series.

It is also nice to see Julio Lugo do nothing (which is what we are all used to seeing from Julio Lugo, I know).

Andre Ethier almost hit for the cycle tonight!

Did you know that Ethier's wife is LDS? She came down on the field and spoke with Elder Ballard on Mormon night.

I did not. Yet another reason to love Andre.

What night will the NLCS start? Will it be Friday along with the ALCS or are they waiting to announce until the Phillies/Purple Dinosaur series is over?

My boss was just telling me it will start on Thurs, regardless of who wins. If that's the case, it would be sweet to have this go 5 games. Then, whoever wins will have flown from Denver to Philly to LA in a 72 hour period.

I hope the Phillies/Purple Dinosaurs series goes 5 games for the travel that you pointed out.

As usual, Rauquis not able to close the deal. Looks like they are going to go down in flames tonight. Which wouldn't be a bad thing given how freezing cold it is in Denver.

The forcast for the next week is in the 60s. Is that too cold for your precious Dodgers?

That is more like it.

Looks like the Rauquis are putting together a nice little rally to prolong the inevitable.
