NLDS Games Five Game Thread

PrintWill St. Louis shock Philadelphia with a win in game five? Well, Roy Halladay is on the mound for the Phillies so if they do, it'll be a heck of a game to watch. And how about the Diamondbacks? Down two games to none, they fought back to tie the series at 2-2 and forced a final game back against the Brewers.
My money is on both of the home teams, Philly and Milawukee. But honestly, I barely care. Bring on the ALCS!
Arizona Diamondbacks @ Milwaukee Brewers - 5 PM (TBS)
Ian Kennedy vs. Yovani Gallardo
St. Louis Cardinals @ Philadelphia Phillies - 8:30 PM (TBS)

More mysteries from Postseason 2012
Willie Bloomquist is not only starting on a playoff team but is also batting lead off.
Mother, did it need to be so high.
These are the two worst playoff teams ever.
And they get to play each other in the first round.

I believe this is the worst postseason team of all time

Did they say Matt Williams is the 3B coach for MIL?
I miss that guy. There should be more players that eat their jersey every AB.
Mother, did it need to be so high.
why don't guys tag up at 2nd on that play?
it’s not like they won’t score anyway if he doesn’t make the catch
"I may make you feel, but I can't make you think." Ian Anderson
I saw a game in Houston a couple weeks ago
The pitcher was on base, did the same thing. I figure “he’s a pitcher, doesn’t get on base much”, so not a big deal. Next batter singles, pitcher comes around to score. There’s 2 outs, so I explain to my wife how the next batter will take a couple of pitches, step out of the box, etc. to give the pitcher time to catch his breath. Nope, swung at the first pitch and grounded out.
Do they not learn fundamentals any more?
OK, done ranting.

Yeah, that's what I figured. For some reason, I just didn't remember that kind of velocity.
I’ve only got radio and Gameday so I can’t see how he looked.
Mother, did it need to be so high.
He was pretty good in relief, though.

Kenny R. tweeting that Andy M. is gone, which leads me to the following question: Didn’t we know this a month ago?
Roch at MASN confirming, said to be iminent

Nyger Morgan, you are a dickhead. But I’m happy for the #brewcrew.
shitty throw
I was hoping for a close play.

That was possibly the worst throw ever.
He couldn’t have thrown that any worse unless he like Rick Ankiel’d it over the backstop or something.

Out of line
Milwaukee’s a great Baseball city. They deserve this kind of success. Besides, we all know that before the St. Louis Browns moved to Baltimore, they were the Milwaukee Brewers for one season.

Baltimore is a great baseball city too.

- Average payroll in baseball: $93M

- Average payroll of teams advancing to LCS: $97M
There’s a little solace in the numbers going down from #2 to #3, but money still rules overall.
