Around SBN: In Crunch Time, Spurs Don't Change Their Game

Gameday Thread, NLDS #5: 10/7 vs. Brewers

Arizona Diamondbacks at Milwaukee Brewers, Oct 7, 2011 5:07 PM EDT

Is it game-time yet? Is it game-time yet?

What about now?

Yeah, it's definitely one of those occasions, like Christmas Eve, where the hands of the clock seem to be crawling, as if they were Wily Mo Pena legging out an inside-the-park homer. I'm pretty sure productivity in the Phoenix area will be significantly lower this afternoon, as the workforce's attention quietly slide to Milwaukee, by whatever means necessary. Arizona has already staved off elimination twice, but now face the most difficult leg: doing so in Milwaukee, against the pitcher who almost blanked them in Game 1.But, for the third time, I want to say this:

If there's one thing I know, it's that these Diamondbacks will not quit until the very last out of the very last game. Whatever happens, it has still been a fabulous season for the team, and a privilege to be a fan.

Star-divide

  1. Willie Bloomquist  SS
  2. Aaron Hill 2B
  3. Justin Upton  RF
  4. Miguel Montero C
  5. Paul Goldschmidt 1B
  6. Chris Young CF
  7. Ryan Roberts 3B
  8. Gerardo Parra  LF
  9. Ian Kennedy RHP

In other words, the same eight position players who started Games 2-4, and the Brewers appear to be sticking with their same line-up as well. Despite it being a lovely day in Milwaukee, the roof will be remaining closed at Miller Park, allegedly because MLB wants "conditions consistent with 1st 4 games." Hmm. May be the first time MLB has ever been concerned about that.. But I'm sure the team will have learned from the earlier games, and will adjust their communication processes appropriately.

Whatever happens, it has been a heck of a series, the teams slugging it out like heavyweight boxers, toe-to-toe, and win or lose, both sides deserve enormous credit for their roles in providing us with four games of memorable baseball. I've little doubt the fifth will be more of the same, and there are few things more dramatic in any sport than an elimination contest for both sides as their 167th game of the season.

Now, is it game time yet?

Today is your day!

by Bcawz on Oct 7, 2011 4:25 PM EDT reply actions  

One hit really doesn't impress me that much

Parra is a Gold Glove-caliber left fielder who ended the regular season with the highest batting average of the regular players. (Yes, higher than Upton’s.) Having a knee jerk reaction because he’s struggling at the plate would be short-sighted, IMO. Cowgill has a grand total of one hit in the postseason, and came nowhere near close to Gerardo offensively over 162 games. As far as I’m concerned, Cowgill should be a pinch hitter all postseason.

Gotta imagine

that really messes with Gallardo. Striking out Upton, only to have a ball called and put your team behind on the next pitch?

My value over a replacement poster is approximately 10.5 runs.

No more than the officiating in game one...

messed with Ian. That game was horribly officiated when it came to what Gallardo got and what Ian got.

Okay, see,

it doesn’t piss me off as much when we swing and miss on Gallardo’s pitches.

It pisses me off when he gets a strike called 5 inches off the plate, or up at the letters. (And when the fans bitch and moan that it wasn’t)

Goldschmidt happens.

by DbacksSkins on Oct 7, 2011 6:02 PM EDT reply actions

6 of 9 strikeouts in Game 1 were looking?

66 pitches

Important to continue being patient, because Gallardo could still easily go 6+ inns.
