Cardinals "Official" 2011 St. Louis Cardinals Thread - Page 89

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

Carp does not look the same. I don't care if he has had 5 "quality" starts or not. He looks like shit and has most games.

It's like he is forcing the ball rather than throwing it.

I can only remember one game where he looked like the old carp on the mound. Maybe age has finally caught up with him? At least we have some good young arms in the pipeline.

Frazod · 05-10-2011, 07:09 PM

Nice work with the hit and run. Tie game.

Marcellus · 05-10-2011, 07:12 PM

I love Soriano in a Cubs uniform.

Frazod · 05-10-2011, 07:12 PM

Okay, I like Soriano a little better now.

Frazod · 05-10-2011, 07:14 PM

I couldn't tell if we got jobbed or victimized by bad baserunning.

Scott Pilgrim · 05-10-2011, 07:15 PM

that was a shit call

Frazod · 05-10-2011, 07:16 PM

We go hosed. Douchebag ump.

they never make that call unless its clear the player left early. In this case he didn't leave early at all.

If we lose this game by one run....
