30 Days of Peace Quotes
Posted: Monday, October 14, 2013 by Travis Cody in
St Louis went the full 5 games against Pittsburgh, so the Cardinals were in the middle of their rotation. But Joe Kelly and Michael Wacha came up big in the first 2 games agains LA, backed by a stellar performance from the bullpen.
If you score Cardinal pitching a 10 so far, you score Dodger pitching 9.9. It really was that close on the mound. But Cardinal hitters got just enough key hits to win game 1 3-2 in 13 innings, and game 2 1-0.
Yeah, it's that close. And now SL is back at the top of its rotation for the critical game 3 with ace Adam Wainwright. LA goes with Hyun-Jin Ryu, who has been strong all season but was shaky in the NLDS against Atlanta. Ryu needs to stand up like Kelly and Wacha did against the LA aces, otherwise Dodger fans are in for disaster.
It would be nice to get some key hits from Hanley Ramirez if he's healthy, Adrian Gonzalez, Yasiel Puig, and Andre Ethier too.
One game at a time. It's still certainly possible to get back into this series. Now it's a best of 5. But there is very little room for error.
Remember I'm counting down the days to Blog Blast on 4 November with 30 days of Peace Quotes and Reasons to Blog for Peace.

There are risks and costs to action. But they are far less than the long range risks of comfortable inaction. John F Kennedy
Reason 22: Because a young man named Matthew Shepard died on 12 October
1998 because he was gay and the two men who beat him and left him tied
to a fence to die in the Wyoming countryside didn't like that. I blog
for Peace in memory of people like Matthew.
Reason 21: Because time is going to pass whether I blog for Peace or don't. So I'm blogging for Peace.
Reason 21: Because time is going to pass whether I blog for Peace or don't. So I'm blogging for Peace.
Reason 20: In the Lord of the Rings films, Lady Galadriel, played
ethereally by Cate Blanchett, says "Even the smallest person can change
the course of the future." I am just arrogant enough to believe that I
can change the future by my actions, and so my actions include
blogging for Peace.
