Cardinals "Official" 2011 St. Louis Cardinals Thread - Page 550

This is so unreal. We were dead. No hope. A season over. Somehow, someway we find some team chemistry and squeak into the playoffs on the last day of the season.

Only to find us facing one of the best pitching staffs assembled in years with home field advantage. We somehow, someway find a way to beat the best pitcher in baseball on the road in an elimination game.

We have to go on the road and beat the team with the best home record in baseball. A team who mortgaged their future to make this run .We somehow, someway find a way to beat them on the road and make our 18th World series trip.

We take game 1, we give away game 2 and home field advantage. Albert goes off for probably the best performance in World Series history and we take game 3 easily. Games 4 & 5 our bats fall asleep, Phone gate happens and its not looking too good.

Game 6, one of the best baseball games of all time and it takes place in a season ending go home game. Cardinals are down 2 runs in their final chance on the season, twice. They are down to their final strike of the season, twice. They give up a 2 run homer in extra innings. In the bottom of the inning their final 3 batters are a combined 3-26 in the Playoffs and a pitcher because the bench is empty. Somehow, someway they get some runners on and the comeback player of the year drives in the tying run. Mr. Freese hits the walk off home run. We will see you tommorrow night.

Game 7, With our bulldog on the mound pitching on 3 days rest he is able to give us 6 good innings and get us to within 9 outs of our 11 World series title. Texas meltsdown, probably left over from last nights game and its over.

The underdog, come back team who had no business even being in the playoffs wins a World championship. They make movies about events like this in life. Events that you remember even if your not a fan of the sport or team for the rest of your life.

When it is your team.......Priceless

At least the Cards didn't burn through 400 pitchers last night.

Not good, not good. Not sure if Carp is gassed or just jittery.

**alnorth** · 10-28-2011, 06:12 PM

pour it on, Rangers. Rip their hearts out!

KC_Connection · 10-28-2011, 06:12 PM

It doesn't get any easier with these three up here, either.

VonneMarie · 10-28-2011, 06:12 PM

Yeah buddy. Keep'em coming.

Frazod · 10-28-2011, 06:13 PM

Looks like we're going to full up of butthurt Kansas douches tonight.

Spirit of '84, ladies. Or whatever it was.

I have something weird to post.

I swore off baseball after the strike in 94 but have thought about burying the hatchette a couple times.

I've watch about 9 innings of baseball since then...

I decided to watch the Cubs game with some friends a few years back (not the whole game, started watching around the 6th inning or so) and said at the time that the cubs were cursed and would find a way to squander their lead and would also choke away the rest of their series lead... it turns out to be the revitalization of their curse when whatshisname in the stands ****ed up the cubs chance at the world series shortly after and they did squander the rest of the series.

I was flipping channels last night and decided to watch the rest of the wS game 6 (with Texas looking to close it out) with Texas up 7-5.

I swear I called the comeback, along with calling stl as the eventual champion this year...I even made my brother (who could care any less about sports)stay to watch.

So, there you have it!

Sorry Texas fans, it was a good year...but I don't give you much of a chance at winning game 7...but who knows, maybe you can go out and steal Pujols after the series is over and win one next year...(this comes with nearly no background on your current roster needs for a player like him, just an observation)

Texas is already up 2-0...I'd say they have a very good chance of winning this game.

SPchief · 10-28-2011, 06:24 PM

Small strike zone for both teams so far

SPchief · 10-28-2011, 06:27 PM
