-Note that it is intentional that there is a space between the '/dev/sdb'  and '3'.  It's also important to note that this will only work if the partition number is the highest numbered on on the disk.  For example, if you had /dev/sdb1, /dev/sdb2, /dev/sdb3, /dev/sdb4, and your PV was /dev/sdb3,  you couldn't expand /dev/sdb3  because /dev/sdb4 would be in the way.
