Ah, 2009 National League Championship Series Game 2, I remember you well.The stakes weren't the same (I feel like I've made that point a lot lately), but given the alternative, it was a nice surprise to see the Dodgers rally after eight innings of tough pitching and score two in the ninth inning – just as they did in that wonderful twilight at Dodger Stadium two years ago – for a 2-1 victory over St. Louis.One out after Juan Rivera was hit by Chris Carpenter's final pitch of the night and Justin Sellers pinch-ran, Aaron Miles absolutely ripped a Fernando Salas pitch to the gap in right-center field for a game-tying triple. The next batter, Rod Barajas, hit a grounder to Rafael Furcal, who had just come in the game at the top of the inning despite his injured thumb
A pair to remember: Dodgers score two in ninth to edge Cards
