PrintNo surprises in the Philadelphia lineup, with the exception of the pitcher it's exactly the same as it has been the first two games of the series according to Troy Renck:
- Jimmy Rollins, SS
- Shane Victorino, CF
- Chase Utley, 2B
- Ryan Howard, 1B
- Jayson Werth, RF
- Raul Ibanez, LF
- Pedro Feliz, 3B
- Carlos Ruiz, C
- J.A. Happ, P
Jim Tracy's lineup according to Jack Etkin is missing Brad Hawpe once again:
- Carlos Gonzalez
- Dexter Fowler
- Todd Helton
- Troy Tulowitzki
- Yorvit Torrealba
- Garrett Atkins
- Ryan Spilborghs
- Clint Barmes
- Jason Hammel
I still think it's a mistake to not start Seth Smith, and Atkins has done little this series to reward Tracy's faith in him, which is why the scorching hot Torrealba is getting moved up.
Putting this up now because we're all getting antsy. We can discuss the Yankees/Twins game here.

I could see it affecting one play or another in a big way.
I think it would be difficult to predict who will benefit, though.
NOT a good night for baseball.
This could be an ugly game. I just hope the Rockies win without any injuries.

problem is
A space heater is not going to do anything to help my huge house. It’s only capable of heating my room when it’s all sealed up.
This and keep it close
I will be wearing fleece pants under my snowpants at the game. You will still be warmer than me.
I tried that
Didn’t work.
The correct C answer is to get my furnace going so I don’t have to hide in my room to keep warm.

Then keep running up the stairs to post. This will keep you warm :)
until I faceplant the top stair, pass out, and miss work because my alarm is not set.
And not missing work was the whole reason why I’m not at the game.
Bad decision
You can always find another job. Seriously where is your heart? :)
Swisher might have a slight advantage offensively, because of the wiffle ball park he plays in.
Other than that, advantage Spilly.
Swisher would probably have more trouble in a staring contest against Dinger than Spilly did.
But Swisher can
also play in the infield (1B) if necessary. I don’t know if I want Spilly playing an infield position of any kind.

A couple of years ago, ALW produced a reality series in Britain where the searched for a girl to play Maria in his new production of The Sound of Music.
The title was, of course, “How do you solve a problem like Maria?”

George Lucas has been responsible for far too many OT threads on the Internet,
including here, young padawan.
He was hanging around campus the other day.

Indeed he does.
Have you seen the new Cinematic Arts building he and Spielberg paid for? Gorgeous thing. I especially enjoy the hallowed “GEORGE LUCAS BUILDING” carved into the architecture (Spielberg has his name on the other half of the building).
They recently put in a new plaque in front of it because the spelled a word wrong on the first one. More money = less attention to detail. I think Lucas might have been here for the installment of that plaque.

I have not yet,
I just know that they had to tear down the Arnold Schoenberg Institute to build it and that his family was really pissed. Serves them right, though, they’re not my fave people.
The groundbreaking was in my first semester, Fall 2006
I remember a parking lot being there, but don’t recall any of the buildings, as I never really went over to that corner of campus that year. They did take out a gigantic chunk of land though.
by Greg Stanwood on Oct 11, 2009 7:46 PM MDT up reply actions
The Schoenberg family has been badmouthing the university
which actually had a very valid claim, that the building they were paying out the nose for needed to be put to better use by students at USC. Hardly anybody on campus even knew it was there or what happened in it. If you Google Arnold Schoenberg Institute or look at the Center’s wikipedia page, you’ll usually get the family’s sob story because they’re a bunch of primadonnas trying to live off of their Daddy’s legacy. Sounds a lot like something that would fit in with USC, I know, it didn’t work out. I hear their current building is just as empty and lifeless as the ASI was when they ran it on campus.

Since school was in the way of both games, the only thing I’ve seen have been the scores. Oh!! And I got a story…
On Thursday I was in my last period class and the Rockies were playing..So I turn on one of the computers to watch the GameDay :P Boom and I had my whole class watching the little Gameday crap..and I was yelling whenever In play,out(s) showed up in the bottom of the 9th inning.

I’m not that crazy about Hawpe not starting and Atkins starting at 3rd. Why is it that we have to change the lineup that brougth us success all season? I know Hawpe and Stewart were slumping but Hawpe seemed to be doing good once he got moved in the lineup. Hopefully we win tonight though.

Is it just me, or is Ron Darling the best of the TBS commentators?
He’s been right on top of everything, including the Cuzzi blunder.
I think he’s doing a good job — the best of a bad lot
No records in the last 10 years should count.
Who's Ron Darling?
Is he the one with Chip right now?

The "analyst" in the Yanks-Twins series
Ex-pitcher for that other NY team.
There are so many bad announcers, that it’s refreshing to hear a decent one.
No records in the last 10 years should count.
Yes I agree...
Dear Rockies - Please annoy the national media and the MLB by beating the Phillies :)
Troy Tulowitzki - THE best SS in the game..nuff said

He does have a NY accent of sorts
But not totally annoying.
I could be wrong, but I think Darling may have gone to Yale. He may be smart, though going to Yale doesn’t guarantee that. And I won’t name names.

No that's Ron Darling

Are they going to hold the start of the Rockies game until the Twins/Yankees game is over?
"I can't accept and won't concede that this is who we are..."
It will start on time
on TNT

You'd think they'd have implemented that feature by now.
Little extra marketing, you know.
