Dodgers 2, Phillies 1: NLCS Game 2 Recap: Notes From Friday's Game

  1. Vicente Padilla was very good over 7.1 IP (1 ER, 4 Hits, 6 K, 1 BB, 1 HR Allowed, 95 pitches - 69 for strikes).
  2. Bullpen: 1.2 IP, 0 Runs, 0 Hits, 0 K, 0 BB.
  3. Jonathan Broxton has pitched in all 5 postseason games thus far in 2009 (5.2 IP, 5 K, 0 BB, 0 HR Allowed), going 1 inning to close out today's win. He induced 2 ground outs and 1 line out, and has allowed only one ER thus far, which came on a poor defensive play and fielder's indifference.
  4. Once again, patience is key, as is drawing walks. The offense struck out only 4 times, but only drew 2 walks. That needs to change.
  5. Of course, one of those 2 walks was the game-winning, bases-loaded walk from Andre Ethier.
  6. Jim Thome had a huge pinch-hit single in the 8th inning.
  7. Russell Martin (Single, HBP) reached base twice, the only Dodger to reach base more than once.
  8. The win is the 44th comeback win of the season, postseason included.

A much different Tommy than last night.
