League Division Series
In case you haven’t paid attention to who’s broadcasting the LDS games on TBS, I’ll give the names.
1. In the Cardinals-Dodgers NLDS, Dick Stockton does the play by play and Bob Brenly is the color commentator.
2. In the Rockies-Phillies NLDS series, Brian Anderson does the play by play and Joe Simpson is the color commentator.
3. The Twins-Yankees ALDS series has Chip Caray and Ron Darling as the announcers.
4. The Red Sox-Angels ALDS series has Don Orsillo and Buck Martinez as the announcers.
The Colorado Rockes are the only team to have won on the road so far, (game 2 against the Phillies)
Mark Teixiera’s game winning home run for the Yankees, and Mark Loretta’s walk off hits are so far my top plays for League Divison series play.
The Red Sox, Twins, and Cardinals are at home, but they must win every game from this point on or they’re out, (each team is trailing the series 2-0)
This World Series tournament is averaging over 6 million viewers per day, which is the highest TV ratings for TBS. This is the network’s third season covering the MLB games.
FOX will have the ALCS coverage and the coveted World Series, while TBS will resume covering the NLCS.
I’m not making any predictions. However I can’t choose between rooting for the Dodgers and Yankees, because they’re too fun to watch right now. I’d be happy, but torn if they had to face each other in the World Series because while I like the Yankees to get Joe Giradi’s jersey number to have a meaning, the Dodgers are attempting to take their first title since 1988, a 21 year drought.
Tonight is the Dodgers vs Cardinals Game 3, where the Cardinals have been superb against the visiting Dodgers at Busch Stadium. The Dodgers must bring their best game at St Louis. The Cardinals can not make any more mistakes, like in Game 2, beause they’ll have an aburpt end to their postseason run.
I think the Dodgers are on the driver’s seat in this series.
Snow, Snow, go away, let the Rockies host the Phillies. It’s going to be really cold in Denver. I just hope this snow doesn’t stick to the field. That would be bad.
With the drama and excitement, I hope the TV ratings go higher than 6 million views a day. That’s a lot of fans viewing on TV as well as the fans in the stands watching their teams in person.
If the Dodgers, Yankees, and Angels blow their 2-0 series leads to lose their series, those will be big upsets.
Oh well.
My baseball memorabila and more caps
Tonight, instead of talking about Major League Baseball’s events, I decided to talk about baseball related items laying around my room. I have some caps I didn’t get to show yet and some stuffed animals with baseball shirts on them. Without further ado, here are the caps first.
Retro Mets blue cap above, and gray cap with green lettering below.
Two New York Yankees caps by Mitchell and Ness
Chicago White Sox, primary and secondary logos on one cap. 
New York Giants (football) and New York Knicks of the NBA
And here are my stuffed animals.
This is a Chicago Cubs Cow.
New York Mets mascots.
A Yankee Mascot, (my older sister got this at Yankee Stadium as a gift)
The Colorado Rockies’ alterante home cap, didn’t see this worn yet.
Colorado Rockies road cap. 
This Yankee cap is adjustable, not fitted and only cost me $5. Be careful, this hat is not MLB Merchandise.
Atlanta Braves Authentic cap. 
New York Mets home cap with Citi Field inaugural season patch.
Thanks for viewing, I hope you enjoyed.
The resurging Mets and the stung Yankees
My second day in the border of the US and Canada, and it’s been a fun one looking at nice parks and a small airport in Ogdensburg New York. It really does not get too hot up there, the weather’s really cool and lows are in the upper 50s
Let’s talk about the Rockies at Mets game now.

Last night, not so much offense but Mike Pelfrey was stellar when the bases were loaded twice for the Colorado Rockies. Amazingly, the Rockies never scored the game despite having the bases loaded. The Mets however did score four runs in the game.
The scoring plays.
Colorado Rockies did not score and left 9 runners on base, Absolutely shocking.
Mets did score though.

Who won and lost?
Scott Kazmir wins. (5-6) CC Sabathia loses (10-7)
Scott pitched 7 strong innings, while CC pitched only 5 and 2/3rds innings. CC didn’t have his best stuff, and the Yankees were unusually sloppy in this game. Tonight I think Joba Chamberlain will be the true ace that he’s bound to be and win the game over Matt Garza, Of course the only team the Rays are not allowed to beat are the Yankees. Yankees will win the AL East and the Rays will win the wild card.
As for the Mets, can we please not talk about their injured players. I know people keep labeling the Mets as a team with high potential with the players that are not playing. Let’s talk about the players that are actually playing in a Mets uniform right now. I feel like the injured players are taking more attention than the ones that are actually playing the game and making a bigger difference. Give credit to the Mets that are playing the game, not sitting out due to injury, the players will eventually come back, it takes time. Injuries are a part of the game, but they shouldn’t be the constant talk. Other teams have injured players too, but the fans are not making such a big deal about that. I do not want the Mets’ injuries to be a big deal, even David Wright says “he’s sick and tired of the injured players talk” so let’s put that to bed. This goes to every team that has injury problems.
That’s all I’ll say, I’ll update this with tonight’s scores after they are done, since I’m able to watch both the Mets and Yankees telecasts from up there.
Here’s another game.

As for this matchup.
No score, the game was rained out. oh well.
Good night everyone.
On a trip, Mets win at home, Yanks win at Florida.
Today I am in upstate, New York. Ogdensburg NY to be exact, and that town is right at the border of Canada. I’ll be there for the next four days. I should have some photos up when I’m done from that trop. I was not able to catch the Mets hosting the Rockies last night but I did hear that the Mets beat the Rockies 7-3. This comes on the same day the Mets fired their vice president Tony Bernazard.

Oliver Perez goes five innings but takes a no decision, giving up three runs.
Ubaldo Jimenez goes seven innings, but takes a no decision also, giving up three runs.
Pedro Feliciano wins the game, Juan Rincon loses.
There were four home runs in the game. Here’s the scoring play by each team.
For the Rockies
Troy Tulowitzki hit a two run shot, for the Rockies‘ first two runs in the second inning
Clint Barmes hit a solo home run in the fifth inning
For the Mets
Jeff Francoeur hit a solo home run in the fourth inning.
Fernando Tatis hit a grand slam to give the Mets the lead at the eighth.
Daniel Murphy and Cory Sullivan each drove in one run in the sixth inning.
The magic in the Mets has returned and they used that to cool off the Rockies at Citi Field. Hopefully they can keep this magical run going. Fernando Tatis was the player of the game with the pinch hit grand slam off Franklin Morales. One of the runs was charged to Juan Rincon so he took the loss instead. I bet those Mets fans are happy that their favorite team returned to NYC and won.

As for the Yankees, they won big last night, against the Rays, that game I saw. The score was 11-4.
Robinson Cano homered and Nick Swisher homered twice. Johnny Damon also homered in the game.
Pat Burrell homered too in the game.
AJ Burnett was great on the mound too, keep up the great work, Yankees!
James Shields wasn’t too good though for the Rays. The Tampa Bay Rays are going to play better offense if they are going to beat the Yankees, because the visiting team has more potential for hitting. The battle of the first baseman Mark Teixiera and Carlos Pena should be exciting in the series.
That is all from Ogdensburg, New York, right at the border of Canada. If you don’t know where that is, look it up on a map. I believe the closest major city is Ottawa, Ontario in Canada.
Mets, Rockies win rubber games.
For this week, I am going to be really busy so I won’t blog as much as I would usually do. I’ll give the box score of the Mets at Astros game today.

Unfortunately, there were no home runs in the game, unlike yesterdays.
Now the scoring plays.
Bottom 1st
Miguel Tejada doubles to bring home Kazuo Matsui.
Carlos Lee doubles to bring home Miguel Tejada.
Geoff Blum doubles and Carlos Lee scores.
The Astros could have added some more, but they ran themselves out of this inning, as Geoff Blum is thrown out at home plate, and Hunter Pence is caught stealing a base.
Top 3rd
Luis Castillo triples to bring home Angel Pagan.
David Wright singles to bring home Luis Castillo.
Jeff Francoeur sac flies to bring home David Wright
Top 4th
Angel Pagan triples to bring home Alex Cora.
Luis Castillo bunts and Angel Pagan scores, (this was ruled as a fielder’s choice)
Top 8th
Jeremy Reed triples to bring home Alex Cora.
Top 9th.
David Wright doubles and Luis Castillo scores.
Jeff Francoeur singles to bring home David Wright.
Livan Hernandez had a first inning throwing 30+ pitches since then he’s settled down to go seven innings. He wins the game going (7-5) Brian Moehler loses going (7-6) Sean Green has the first save for the Mets. The Mets’ three triples brought home one run each, so that was some productive hitting. No home runs though, at least the runs counted for the win. This was a good series for the Mets, having double digits in the hits column in all of the three games. The Mets have all the confidence to take on the Colorado Rockies right now at Citi Field tomorrow.
Speaking of the Rockies, they won their game 4-2 over the Giants.

Top 2nd
Travis Ishikawa scores on a groundout by John Bowker
Bottom 3rd
Troy Tulowitzki sac flies and Seth Smith scores.
Ian Stewart singles to bring home Todd Helton
Top 6th
Edgar Renteria singles to bring home Fred Lewis
Bottom 6th
Yorvit Torrealba sac flies and Carlos Gonzalez scores.
That’s it for the game.
Aaron Cook wins the game (10-3)
Ryan Sadowski loses (2-3)
Huston Street saves the game (25)
Neither team homered in the game.
Tomorrow it’s Ulbado Jimenez (7-9) vs Oliver Perez (2-3). From what I know Jimenez is a hard thrower, so if the Mets can, they should be patient at the batter box and not hit anything too far off the plate, work up the count and increase the number of pitches he throws. For the Rockies, if they have to take a pitch, they should, because Oliver Perez can be erratic at times with his fastballs and curveballs. This should be a fun four game series.
Speaking of which, I won’t be surprised to see these caps at Citi Field on Monday whether it’s the fans or the players wearing them.
Mets cool off Astros, as Rockies take back Wild Card lead.
I’ll talk about the Mets’ win over the Houston Astros today. Jonathon Niese is superb against Russ Ortiz. The Mets’ offense is evident as they score 10 runs over the Astros’ 3 runs. Niese goes seven innings, giving up one run and four hits. Russ Ortiz pitches just only four and one third innings and giving up five hits and six runs.
Here’s the box score.

Jeff Francoeur sac-flies to bring home Luis Castillo
Cory Sullivan (former Rockies player) singles to bring home Daniel Murphy.
Bottom 1st
Ivan Rodriguez singles to bring home Michael Bourn.
Top 4th
Alex Cora hits a double play and Cory Sullivan scores.
Top 5th
Jeff Francoeur hits a three-run home run and also scoring is Luis Castillo and David Wright.
Top 6th
Omir Santos hits a solo home run.
Luis Castillo singles to bring home Angel Pagan.
Top 9th
David Wright hits a solo home run
Bottom 9th.
Hunter Pence hits a two run home run off Francisco Rodriguez. Jason Michaels also scores.
Jonathon Niese wins, he’s (1-0) while Russ Ortiz loses (3-5) Francisco Rodriguez was brought in to have inning worth of work, but he’s a bit shaky giving up two runs via a Hunter Pence home run. It must been the fact that he has not pitched in a game since last Monday at Washington DC. The Mets had their bats working with home runs by Omir Santos, David Wright and Jeff Francoeur. Jeff has been a huge help to the Mets, and he proved that driving in four runs.
The Astros might want to think twice before sending in Chad Poronto and Tim Byrdak, they each gave up one home run. Hunter Pence was the only bright spot for the Astros in that game.
The players for this game are Jonathan Niese for his solid seven innings of work, and Jeff Francoeur drving in four runs, including a three run home run.
I was lucky enough thanks to MLB Network to check out the San Francisco Giants vs the Colorado Rockies game.

This game concerns me a lot, because the winner of the game has the coveted wild card lead in the National League. I was hoping that the Rockies would win the game, and they did, Jorge De La Rosa (8-7) defeats Jonathan Sanchez (3-9) in this game.
Here are the scoring plays.
Bottom 4th
Troy Tulowitzki hits his 18th home run of the year, a three run shot, Garrett Atkins and Todd Helton also score.
Top 6th
Pablo Sandoval doubles to bring home Andres Torres.
Bottom 6th
Troy Tulowitzki doubles to bring home Garrett Atkins, Troy has driven home four runs up that point.
Chris Iannetta sac flies to bring home Brad Hawpe (all star)
Top 8th
Fred Lewis grounds out brings home Randy Winn in the process.
Botton 8th
Troy Tulowitzki singles to bring home Ian Stewart, wow, Troy has five runs batted in. Great!
Chris Iannetta doubles and Brad Hawpe scores.
Seth Smith flies out, but gets an RBI when Ryan Spilborghs scores.
Troy Tulowitzki drove in five runs for the night to help the Rockies out, driving in five runs including a three run home run, for that performance, he’s the player of the Giants vs Rockies game.
The teams fight for the rubber match tomorrow, I hope the Rockies win the game so they can carry their momentum to Citi Field and take on the Mets in the four game series. I hope the Mets are fired up to beat up the Rocikes if they hold the wild card spot. It’s going to be a fun four game series, whoever wins that series is a serious contender. We’ll have to wait until Monday to see that.
I’d like to see the Mets and Rockies win their series respectively tomorrow as each team is playing in a rubber game. If both teams win, then it’s both teams with high hopes for a big series. If the Mets lose and the Rockies win, then the Mets will be more pumped up to beat up the Rockies, and vice-versa. I hope the Mets can gain some confidence no matter what and treat the Rockies series as the turning point of their season, I expect the Rockies to do the same. If the Rockies can’t beat the Mets, then the Giants will fly past the Rockies in the NL West.
This is the turning point, and whoever wins the Mets and Rockies series, will be contenders.
Here are the Wild Card Standings, for the top ten teams, not including games playing in the West coast on this date.

Mets and Astros this weekend, and the Rockies hit NYC Monday
The Mets
and Astros did a lot of hitting, the Mets has 14 and the Astros had 12 hits.
Mike Hampton pitched well, and even hit a home run off Johan Santana. Mike hit
his 16th career home run in the game. I give big thumbs up to Hampton for taking advantage of a mistake
pitch by Santana. Though the Mets did some hitting, they did not score enough
runs. The Mets left 10 men on base while the Astros stranded 11 runners. It’s bizarre
that the team with the fewest hits and more runners left on base would win this
game.
Omir
Santos made up the deficit by hitting a home run off Hampton later in the sixth inning. That’s
the last batter that Hampton faced. The bullpen for the Astros
did its job including LaTroy Hawkins and Jose Valverde. What a job.
Mike
Hampton wins. (6-7)
Johan
Santana Loses (11-8)
Jose
Valverde is the savior. (11)

The Mets’
next opponent is the Colorado Rockies. No matter how the other two games at the
Astros turn out, they’ll be limping back to New York City to take on the Rockies at Citi Field. With the recent
resurgence of the Colorado team, I won’t be surprised to see
more Rockies fans at Citi Field. The Rockies are the team the Mets are
currently chasing in the wild card race. The big difference makers in the Rockies are Todd Helton with a .322
batting average, Troy Tulowitzki with 17 home runs, Brad Hawpe with a 61 RBI
season, Garrett Atkins, and pitchers like Jason Marquis who has 12 wins and
Ulbado Jimenez with seven wins. Ian Stewart has been a pleasure surprise
hitting 17 home runs; (leading the team in that category) The Rockies are tied
with the Giants right now at 52-44 and are nine games out of the leading
Dodgers.
I have a
feeling that the Rockies are going to take this wild card spot for the NL, because of their
timely hitting, and the fact that Jason Marquis is vying for a Cy Young award. I
hope the Rockies enjoy their time hitting at Citi
Field because their home runs won’t come cheap due to the spacious outfield. As
for the Mets, inducing ground balls is a must if they are going to beat the
visiting Rockies. That series begins on Monday. It’ll be a homecoming for Jason Marquis who was born in Manhasset, New York, in Long Island might play in that series. I bet Marquis is going to see his hometown fans root for him to beat the Mets at their park. Marquis is a huge Yankee fan so this gives him the reason to pitch well against the Mets.
Here’s
the game’s box score last night versus the Giants, tied for the Wild Card spot after the result in the NL. I bet the Mets were concerned about this game as well as the Astros, since both the Mets and Astros were fighting for that same spot too.

Matt Cain wins, he’s 12-2, while Jason Hammel loses (5-5) and Brian Wilson saves the game (his 25th save of the season)
Interestingly enough, Jason Hammel used to play with the Tampa Bay Rays. Nate Schierholtz of the Giants and Dexter Fowler of the Rockies were in the USA Baseball team that participated in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, that team won the bronze medal.
Speaking of Jason Marquis’ favorite team growing up, the Yankees played and were defeated by the Athletics by a score of 6-4, this is today’s game, and snapping their eight game winning streak.
