What a great win all-around by the Blue tonight, but most of all, what an amazing pitching performance by Vicente Padilla tonight.
Padilla was masterful for seven shutout innings, and got some early run support as the Dodgers went on to beat the Cards 5-1, sweep the series in three games, and advance to the NLCS for the second consecutive year, the first time they've done that since the 1977 and 1978 seasons.
Manny and Andre Ethier provided plenty of offense, each collecting three hits and a couple of RBI. Ethier fell a single short of hitting for the cycle.
And so now we wait for Philly or the Rockies!
