NLDS Game 3: J.A. Happ vs Jason Hammel

PrintPhiladelphia Phillies at Colorado Rockies, Oct 11, 2009 8:07 PM MDT
The freeze out last night means that Pedro Martinez and Joe Blanton are both available in long relief for the Phillies should things go south quickly for Happ, Jason Marquis and Jose Contreras are close at hand for Jim Tracy if the same is true with Hammel. The bitter cold might make this point moot, however, as offense figures to be in short supply.
There's a strange sort of symmetry to the season as this game falls almost six months to the day after another bitterly cold Rockies/Phillies game on a Sunday afternoon in Denver. The bullpen collapse of Manny Corpas and Huston Street in that April 12 contest and subsequent (well, minus that sandwiched two game Cubs series that messes up my narrative here) sweep out of Los Angeles the following weekend in many ways could be seen as the start of the downward spiral for the early 2009 team that would eventually cost manager Clint Hurdle his job. Here the Rockies have another shot at winning a series against the Phillies in Coors, and if they do win twice, they'll have a final shot of beating the Dodgers in Los Angeles the following weekend as well.
That chance for atonement is almost too poetic, and people wonder why Rockies fans act like there's some sort of mysterious hand of destiny guiding this team...
GO ROCKIES!!!

For the most part the teams that the networks like better have won, though.
They’d have probably liked a Red Sox/Yankees ALCS, but Angels/Yankees means they get two large markets on either coast watching those games. They’d love for Philly to beat us to give them two series like that I’m sure.

Would love to be listening to Jack and Jeff instead of these TBS guys.

The way Hammel pitched the last month of the season
was playoff caliber. I am glad to see that he has not let us down with his performance tonight. He is pitching exactly like he has in the last month. Making Tracey look like a genius right now!
Hey the announcers got somemm right.
Hammel does have a lot of movement on his pitches, including his fastball.
Remember old folks, I'm just 17 years old =]
I approve of these announcers so far

Just got the internetz back
1. Hammel is looking good.
2. The douchebag who blocked Helton needs his ass kicked. Or kicked out of the game.
Correct on both counts.

I agree with the second thing you just said.
Someone needs to punch that deuche in the face. He obviously doesn’t know he is supposed to help the home team out and do that crap when the stinky Phils are batting.
Everyone else is COLD
HAMMEL IS HOT!!!!

I'm amazed at Hammel's breaking pitches
Those should be harder to throw in the cold, with the grip & release needed.
Doesn’t seem to be affecting him
No records in the last 10 years should count.
Hear, hear.

Other than one pitch
Hammel has been amazing.
Dan, you are a god. How on earth did you get Marquis and Hammel for nothing. You made a deal with the devil, didn’t you?
The devil took a chance on Holliday...
bombed pretty bad.

In the Marquis trade we got rid of whats his name....
He didnt do crap for the Cubbies this year.
Wait, I'm confused..
is the devil Vizcaino or Billy Beane or Scott Boras?

Initially, it wasn't too spicy enough, but I carbonated it more and it is tasting pretty good
I compared it to Avery White Rascal and it wasn’t the same, but equally good. Have you had white rascal? It is an excellent example of that style.
Hey guys!!
How’s the weather t-night? It was horrible here in St. George, It was so nasty that I took my family hiking in Zion NP.

I wanna say THANKS and CONGRATS to Matt Belisle for that clean 7th inning he threw in Game 2. Who would’ve thought!?
Remember old folks, I'm just 17 years old =]
Belisle's been pretty good over the past month.

Ooohhh Toddfather.
There have been 3 pitches in this AB you should’ve crushed.

I forgot how slow Todd's bat was in the cold weather early in the season. I'm glad we get LA next.

Chewbacca died years later
when a moon crashed on him.

The author
who wrote the book that happened in received death threats, even though he wasn’t the one who made the decision to kill Chewie.

When really
All death threats aimed at Salvatore should be focused on his stupid Drizzt novels.
"I can't accept and won't concede that this is who we are..."
Never read
any of his non-Star Wars works. After reading his AotC novelization I had enough.

I've struggled through a couple of his D&D novels
