World Series Game 6: Colby Lewis vs. Jaime Garcia
It is a day we have waited patiently to come for two days. The St. Louis Cardinals will finally host the Texas Rangers tonight at 6:00PM MST. The game will take place at Busch Stadium in St. Louis, which will be the location of the World Series Championship ceremony. We just don't know which team will be erupting with jubilation yet.
Trailing the series 3-2, the Cardinals will go with Jaime Garcia to push the 2011 season to its latest possible day. Aside from a disastrous inning in Milwaukee, Garcia has been brilliant in the playoffs, including seven shutout innings against Texas in a Game 2 loss on October 20.
In an attempt to neutralize the southpaw's effectiveness, Ron Washington has gone with eight right-handed batters in his lineup:
1. Ian Kinsler (R) 2B
2. Elvis Andrus (R) SS
3. Josh Hamilton (L) LF
4. Michael Young (R) 1B
5. Adrián Beltré (R) 3B
6. Nelson Cruz (R) RF
7. Mike Napoli (R) C
8. Craig Gentry (R) CF
9. Colby Lewis (R) P
As Rob Neyer points out though, Garcia has immunity to the platoon attack. This construction means Mitch Moreland and David Murphy will be on the bench to start, and Yorvit Torrealba loses out on the festivities due to the DH rule. This is more evidence the NL has the rule right.
By the way, the Cardinals lost that Game 2 despite Garcia's seven shutout innings. That prevented a 2-0 series lead for St. Louis, critical in the roadmap draft that puts them on elimination's doorstep. The one reason was Colby Lewis, who allowed just one run on four hits in 6.2 innings as Garcia's opposition. Lewis gets the start tonight with the chance of giving the Texas Rangers their first World Series title in their 51 year history.
Lewis will be facing a the lineup that Tony La Russa seems to like most, the one without Ryan Theriot, Jon Jay OR Colby Rasmus.
1. Rafael Furcal (S) SS
2. Skip Schumaker (L) CF
3. Albert Pujols (R) 1B
4. Lance Berkman (S) RF
5. Matt Holliday (R) LF
6. David Freese (R) 3B
7. Yadier Molina (R) C
8. Nick Punto (S) 2B
9. Jaime Garcia (L) P.
Whoever you are rooting for, this ought to follow the Series' heretofore script with another gripping game. GO BASEBALL!

Thank you Cookie for many years of service. Hope all goes well with you in your continued career.
Self taught and falling in love with this game is very easy to do, you can never hate it, and that is something that not one person can take away from anybody. The love of baseball and OUR COLORADO ROCKIES.

Not the first time for Holliday
Does his brain just freeze in big games?
Yeah, I know. Game 163. But remember he klutzed it up in the field before he scored the winning run.

Matt Holliday is making an absolute fool of himself
Unless he does something from here on out, he may have had the worst World Series ever by a big star. He is Goat of the Year right now.

Okay, this is driving me crazy.
Keith Law just tweeted this:
When LaRussa called the bullpen tonight he actually said “Aawon Buh”
I’m pretty sure this is a reference to something when a person was trying to answer a trivia question about Aaron Burr. But I cannot for the life of me remember where it’s from. Is this a movie? A commercial?
Okay, that sounds familiar.
At first I was thinking that it was a movie, then it hit me that maybe it was a commercial. That was a long time ago.

I was pretty disgusted after the Rockies season, but the rapid demise of the I-95 teams have helped with that.

"The prettyist UGLY game I've ever seen" Orel Hirschiser
"Why are they outlawin' the spit pitch? The curveball is a cheap 'n easy pitch; the spitter aint" Ty Cobb
"When I was pitching 90's in the seventies; I never thought I'd be pitching 70's in the nineties!" Frank Tanana
Which only means as much as the next day's starting pitcher
Oh it’s Carpenter?
Yep all the momentum

Ya, and I really want the Rangers to win this thing
but now I’m not so sure….
It's Jim Tracy's Fault.
I know I'm probably in the minority among Rockies fans, but I'm mostly neutral/indifferent toward Holliday now.
me too

I still like him, but not enough to root for the Cardinals.
I also want Yorvit to get a ring before Matt..I don’t really know why…

I didn't want his miscue to be the reason the WS was lost
he’s already endured that with an NLDS… not to mention that… well of course he touched home plate.

i just stopped by to say go cards!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gotta love Freese
Welp
You win some you lose some, awesome way to lead into game 7 even though I’d have rather it ended differently
What just happened?
I think if i was a fan of one of those teams my heart would have exploded.
Attempted murder? Now honestly, what is that? Do they give a Nobel Prize for attempted chemistry?
Alright, now I want a good old fashioned pitcher's duel tomorrow with awesome defense.
That’s the best way to finish this.

It's amazing how many truly CLASSIC Game 6's there have been in the World Series in the last 40 years
1975, 1985, 1986, 1991, 2002, and now this.
I was pretty disgusted after the Rockies season, but the rapid demise of the I-95 teams have helped with that.
