Tons of new Dodgers content today in anticipation of tomorrow’s Game 3, including one disheartening story about what really happened to Joe Beimel.
- LA calling on rally, magic to stop Mets - In must-win NLDS game, Dodgers pit Maddux against Trachsel.
- Dodgers hope for a Maddux redux - Righty out to help Los Angeles avoid elimination in Game 3.
- Notes: Two injuries hinder LA - Nomar tears left quad; Beimel’s injury disappoints teammates.
- Martin a pioneer for Dodgers catchers - Unlike past stars, youngster calling playoff games as rookie.
A couple of Dodgers wrote their own pieces, including a new blog post by Derek Lowe — Offense needs to get in gear to take Game 3 — and a pretty candid post by Toby Hall — Trading places, last to first.
Fallout from the Dodgers changing their Single-A affiliation — a note on the Vero Beach Dodgers website from the GM, Emily Christy.
Finally, a lovely profile of Vin Scully in the New York Times — Scully Recalls the Daffy Days of Brooklyn. And I have to say, after hearing the awful job most of the Fox and ESPN announcing teams have been doing so far, we sure have it lucky out here.
