It is the usual for the NLCS. TBS airs the action on television, while ESPN Radio brings the live broadcast to all those of you at home.
The Dodgers are struggling and hurt in the NLCS after dominating the Atlanta Braves soundly in the Division Series. Now, with Hanley Ramirez receiving CT Scans, unsure of his status and Andre Ethier still banged up, the Dodgers no longer pose a threat on offense. They were dynamic a week ago, but now, the middle of their lineup is struggling, Yasiel Puig is proving undisciplined at the plate and Adrian Gonzalez cannot put good wood on the ball.
The Cardinals have taken full advantage, exploiting the Dodgers' inexperience in the postseason. They have held them to two earned runs in 22 innings pitched this series. The last time they allowed a run was in the top of the third inning of Game 1. The Cardinals' bullpen has been unhittable, while their young starts are making the organization look great.
Joe Kelly and Michael Wacka have owned Dodgers, despite only making their second postseason starts of their careers. Yadier Molina is proving to be the true MVP of the National League as he is guiding this young pitching staff right back to the World Series.
On the mound today, Molina will not have to worry about inexperience as longtime teammate and two-time World Series champion, Adam Wainwright, takes the ball in Game 3. Wainwright will have a chance to give his team the 3-0 lead, keeping the chances of a sweep and some rest alive for St. Louis. He will be opposed by Hyun-Jin Ryu, the Dodgers' expensive offseason acquisition.
