Ricky Nolasco will toe the rubber for the Dodgers in Game 4 of the National League Championship Series, with Hanley Ramirez and Andre Ethier also clawing their way back into the starting lineup.

What happens when three old friends in crisis fall into an unexpected love triangle? In The Catch, Maya, Henry and Daniel embark upon an emotional journey that forces them to confront unresolved pain, present-day traumas and powerful desires, leading them to question the very meaning of love and fulfillment. The Catch tells a tale of ordinary people seeking the extraordinary – or, if that’s asking too much, some damn peace of mind.

It should be noted that Deadspin is doing a glorious job of pointing out the hypocrisy in this battle of baseball’s perfect team and the disrespectful Dodgers, this article is great:

In the end, I think this is the right choice. Glad also to still have Hanley and Andre in the line-up. I hope Puig continues to spark the Dodgers and annoy the Cardinals.

I’m fine with Nolasco, but he may have a short leash because it’s been so long since he pitched.
Jack Dawkins
I think his leash will be shorter than Tattoo walking a maltese.

I can’t get the lineup link to work. Is it the same as last night?
Jon Weisman
Same lineup as last night except for pitcher.

I’m glad. I think this is the right way to go. I will be whooping, fist-pumping, leaping, and cheering him on loudly and unprofessionally from the stands.
NoahUCLA
Hopefully you’ll be unprofessionally whooping and hollering for Ethier and Hanley as well!!
RBI
And Puig! (I was referring to Ricky above…)
Heck, I’m there for all of ’em.
