Miles, Ethier Propel Dodgers to Victory Over Fighting Rockies
by Bryan Kilpatrick on Jul 25, 2011 11:56 PM MDT
in Rockies Game Wraps
Email
PrintAaron Miles had two hits and three runs batted in, and Andre Ethier broke a two-week-long homerless drought (and a 5-for-33 slump overall) with a two-run big fly as the Dodgers defeated the Rockies 8-5.
Colorado got the scoring started in the second inning when Dexter Fowler scorched a ball into the hole between first and second to plate Chris Iannetta, who reached on a single earlier in the inning and moved to third on a Juan Nicasio double. However, it was all Dodgers from that point on as Miles and Ethier doubled and homered in succession to give Los Angeles a 3-1 lead. Two more would score in the sixth on a Juan Rivera double and a Dioner Navarro single. The bloodbath continued in the eighth when the Dodger bats BABIP'd recently-recalled Esmil Rogers to death (although, with some control problems, he certainly didn't help himself).
Despite Nicasio's issues, he had pretty decent stuff, striking out five and walking two in 5.2 innings. However, the five runs on six hits suggest his road woes are not behind him.
Troy Tulowitzki walked three times and missed a home run by about two feet in the eighth inning as Tony Gwynn Jr. made a leaping catch in the outfield. And those three hits in the second inning that were mentioned above? They were the only hits the Rockies had in the game until the ninth, when the Dodger bullpen decided to make things interesting by not throwing strikes.
At least the Rox showed some fight at the end, at least until Troy Tulowitzki swung at the first pitch of his at-bat, - at a ball above the letters, no less - and popped out with the bases loaded. Ugh...truly a battle of ineptitude in that last inning. To top it all off, Jason Giambi left the game with an apparent leg injury after reaching on an error by Jamey Carroll. We'll have to keep a close eye on that, as it could seriously hamper any trade value he may have had.

Comment of the night:
Tomorrow, Jhoulys Chacin will look to get back on track after a bad seven-walk outing against the Braves last time out. Unfortunately for him, he'll have to face Clayton Kershaw. Outlook =/= good.

Most fascinating stat from the box score:
Esmil Rogers has a higher slugging percentage than Ian Stewart.
He was a shortstop, wasn't he?
That’s like 3B, in that they are both positions on a baseball diamond.
So......Wheeler anybody?

he couldn’t hit any worse than stewart or wigginton, that’s for sure, even if he’s probably not so quick with the glove any more

Maybe getting their jackets peed on will piss the team off
and they’ll go on a 30 game win streak
and everybody will proclaim O’Dowd a genius.
We're talking Rockies pitching, home of the Walkapotamus.
I’m assuming the safest place for stuff not to get peed on is in the urinals.
O'Dowd won't pull the trigger on this unless he can get at least one MLB ready pitching jacket guy in return.
and a case of good beer. I think the kid is safe for now.
I think they should get something for him now though. He’s been slowing down a bit it seems every time I see him live. I don’t want this to go the Hawpe/Atkins route.
Serenity Now.
Before you know it we'll have to cut him
and he won’t even be qualified to run jackets for the A’s.
And we’ll really wish we had gotten that beer.
Well if the Latin American scouting dept is worth it's salt we should be able to find a replacement for him in the DR somewhere....
and fast-track him/her to the Bigs pretty quickly. Kids down there learn to run around with jackets right around the time they learn to walk.
Serenity Now.
I don't want a lot of these guys back next year
which is very hard to me to say because I genuinely like the guys on this team

And one of the few nonbroken parts is 38 years old.
Good lord, we might have a big hill to climb….
I really can't manage to care too much who manages the club.
Yeah sometimes I get mad at Tracy’s lineups or his pitching matchups, but I don’t expect everything would be constant rainbows and unicorns with someone else at the helm. If the organization feels that the team would respond better to a different manager, give it a shot, whatever. But at some point these guys are the ones earning their paychecks and they should be able to play for Jim Tracy about as well as anyone.

i think its the culture of the orginization
seems like a “oh well, we tried hard and we will get them next time” attitude
Would a hard-nosed manager change that attitude?
Or would he just get frustrated when losses were met with “good job boys, you came so close!”
Just thinking out loud.
If it’s an organizational philosophy, it’s hard to change it with one guy. If nobody has his back, he loses the clubhouse quick when he’s meeeeeeean to the poor guy who popped up the first pitch in 3 ABs.
this team baffles me
when the pitching matchup is Jimenez vs. Owings and you lose 7-0, there is some serous problems
At least Tracy started splitting up Iannetta and Helton's days off
So it’s not both of them sitting every single Sunday.
too late

Perhaps we should have extrapolated more from 2009
We focused more on the fact that the team responded to Tracy than that it quit on Hurdle.
Looking back, maybe that was a warning sign of sorts….
Yep
…and now they are showing signs of quitting on Tracy

I don't think Todd should be embarrassed that his teammates are playing badly.
Pissed off, certainly, but not embarrassed.
i'll take all his non-clutch runs created any day of the week, for sure
but good lord the GIDPs, the sky-high IFFBs, the swinging at 98 mph pitches at your head…. that all can stop whenever’s good for him. i’m definitely of the opinion that his new hitting approach this season is the cause of his bad BABIP and to his detriment as a hitter

Night after night, we pretend its all right
But I have grown colder and
this team has grown older and
Nothing is very much fun any more.
And I can feel another rockies loss coming on
I feel cold as a razor blade,
Tight as a tourniquet,
Dry as a funeral drum.
