Game 161: Jorge de la Rosa vs. Clayton Kershaw

PrintColorado Rockies at Los Angeles Dodgers, Oct 3, 2009 8:10 PM MDT
As Rox Girl noted, the next two games will carry a lot of weight for the Rockies and Dodgers. The team continues to ascend to surprising heights against the odds - first back to .500, then to contention, then to the Wild Card lead, then to clinching the Wild Card. And now, if Colorado wins both games, they will not only win the NL West but also clinch home-field throughout the playoffs. Truly, inconceivable. However, with a loss in either or both games, Los Angeles earns home field.
Depending on who starts Sunday for LA, last night was the most likely of the three games the Rox would win, and with the win, they increased their chances of the division from 7% to 17%. Tonight is the least likely win (relatively). Last night, Colorado won by just one despite their ace on the hill and holding Manny Ramirez, Matt Kemp, James Loney and Casey Blake to an 0-16, 10 K night, stranding 11 baserunners. I wouldn't count on that happening again.
It is ironic that the least likely W in the series comes with Jorge de la Rosa on the hill, given that the Rockies won all six of his September starts and 17 of his last 19. One of those two losses came at Coors Field against Los Angeles, when he got outmatched by...ahem...Vicente Padilla. In fact, he's 0-2 with a 5.75 ERA against Los Angeles. Of course, we saw just how much that can mean last night, when Ubaldo Jimenez tormented the Dodgers after coming in 0-3 with a 7.77 ERA against them. With a win, de la Rosa would tie Kevin Ritz, Pedro Astacio and Jeff Francis for the franchise record in wins in a season, despite having none through the first third of the season.
Kershaw will be making his second start since returning from an injury to his right shoulder in early September. The Dodgers surely must have scolded their young rapscallion for the injury, which he sustained from running into the outfield wall during batting practice. In his first start since his return, he went just four innings due to being held on a pitch count. Colorado has managed to work the pitch count of the 21-year-old this season fairly well, as he has averaged just 5.5 IP in four starts against the Rox (2 wins, 2 losses). That could be the key in the game: perhaps he'll be nervous in a clinching game, seeing as this is the first season he would even get to legally partake in a champagne celebration.
The Vegas odds for the game: Dodgers -134 favorites.

And Wyoming only beat Florida Atlantic by 2 points. Not terribly helpful.
No, but all that matters are wins :)
CSU beat Sac St on a last second field goal last year, but without that eek out win, they wouldn’t have made the bowl that Gartrell Johnson III set the records in. The W is what matters :)

Watching the Detroit game.
Looks like at least one series will be going right down to the wire tomorrow (hopefully two, of course)
Does anyone know if the tiebreaker game
btw the Twins and Tigers will be on Tuesday? Last I heard that was the only solution as MNF has booked the Metrodome and is unwilling to change
SWEEP L. A.

Yes, there should be two series down to the wire.

that this is the last late night game of the season. It takes me like 2 hours to decompress after the game, at which point the sun is starting to come up and Roosters are already crowing! Starting tomorrow I might be able to go to bed before 3am

At least for the regular season.
Don’t be surprised if TBS schedules an 8:00pm MT or 8:30pm MT playoff game at Coors Field in the NLDS. I remember a few late starts two years ago, especially when TBS had a LDS tripleheader.
yep
I think we will get the late games because of the time zone

I don't think there will be any start times that late.
That’s 10pm on the east coast. I think games in Denver would start at 6 or so.
I know, but last year the start times were a huge complaint.
I don’t think they’ll go that late this year. But who knows.
But, you know that TBS is going to put a Yankees game in primetime at or close to 7pm ET.
So then a Rockies would have to be placed before it, around 1:00pm or 1:30pm, or afterwards at 8:00pm or 8:30pm.
I don't know what they'll do.
I just know that the complaints last year were so rampant that I’m pretty sure Selig acknowledged it was a problem. I don’t think they want games starting at 10 eastern.
Maybe they’ll be more lenient for the NLDS, but I would be surprised.
The only other option they could do like they did during the ESPN days several years back...
Stagger games starting at 11:00am MT, 2:30pm MT, and 6:00pm MT. But TBS has been starting later, like around 1pm MT on weekdays, and 11am on the weekends.
I don't see how that's possible..
the NL postseason is all on TBS.. AL is on FOX….

Speaking of Star Wars
anyone planning on going to see the “Star Wars in Concert” event in a couple weeks? Seems like it would be pretty cool.
I know someone who saw it a couple days ago.
They loved it.

so do you watch the movies with the live orchestra playing when necessary
or is it just them playing with clips in the background playing at the same time?
I heard great reviews about it..

hey i have a question for you baseball experts
so i had thought that if the dodgers and rockies came down to a tie, the dodgers would win the division cause they had a better head to head record. is this true?
the reason i ask is why is there a tiebreaking game if the tigers and twins end up tied?
Because in the NL west the loser still makes the playoffs
in the AL central…not so much
SWEEP L. A.
Because somebody's got to clean it, that place is filthy ;-)
that too
"There are only two important things in life: baseball and breathing. But at least you can survive without breathing for 3 minutes."
www.soundclick.com/hollidayrain
that confused me at first too.
but anytime a team would be eliminated from the playoffs there will be a playin game. Anytime both teams would make it they just go to head to head
Dex Knows
The problem is that the Dodgers and Rockies can't finish with the same record, since they're playing head to head. When the Rockies win tonight, both will be at 93-68, with the tiebreaking game on Sunday.
Since Detroit and Minnesota are not playing against each other, they can potentially play in a tiebreaker game.
No playoff game on the NL side, since both teams are in. Not the case in the AL side. If Detroit and Minnesota tie after Sunday, their tiebreaker game will be Tuesday at 3pm MT at the Metrodome on TBS.
+1
for the “when”
"There are only two important things in life: baseball and breathing. But at least you can survive without breathing for 3 minutes."

i know they cant tie now but several weeks ago when i first heard this it was still possible
so the rule is if a team has already clinched the wildcard its goes to H2H record but if the WC is in another division it will be a play-in game?
mlb has the weirdest tie breaking rules
The tiebreaker game would only be played to determine if one team gets to advance into the playoffs, while one is left out.
Detroit and Minnesota are fighting for one spot this year. Colorado and San Diego in 2007 were fighting for one spot. Since both Colorado and the Dodgers are in the playoffs, the game is not necessary.
Can't stay on the thread much tonight
But wanted to put my 2 cents’ worth in:
Beat LA.
I’m really looking forward to the playoffs. The Rox have peaked at the right time.
No records in the last 10 years should count.
Already ran four calls in two hours.
I have zero chance of seeing any part of this game. But I can dream.
Is it me or does the whole team look way way down already?

1st innings are important for JDLR

I seem to remember a few games this year
where the first inning went poorly, but the second and third times through the order were MUCH more productive.

It's not really that important
although it is my favorite town I have ever visited. I nearly didn’t travel there when given the chance, as I figured, if I didn’t know about it, it probably wasn’t exciting. I went anyway, and I have been back again and will in the future as well. I suppose if you want to relate it to the Rockies: don’t overlook what people aren’t talking about – they might just be missing a gem

Tonight's probably
going to boil down to pitch counts and whatever team can get to the bullpen
He has changed from a borderline, plug-the-gap 5th starter
into a pitcher any team would love to have in their rotation.
I’ve been very iimpressed with his development.
Apodaca takes a lot of heat here sometimes, but somebody has turned JDLR into a first-rate pitcher.

I love LA fans
They boo Ramirez for hitting a ball hard that just about only he can hit hard.
I'm just really bummed out now.
Regardless of whatever happens in this game, I really wanted to see how long Jorge could keep it going.
me too...I'm just going to remember his fantastic outing at SF :)

Atkins Walks
maybe DLR figured him leaving was the only way for the offense to get the Kershaw
I prefer Homerkins.

We don't even need a hit

get to the pitcher
if you're reading this, it means my undying support for your team will result in its failure.

They would be better off
letting Barmes fail
and then get the sure out with a Contreras leadoff AB
Who didn't see a GIDP happening right there?

A strikeout would have been slightly productive.
My expectations weren’t that high.
