I have to disagree for a couple of reasons. Every game we play against the Cards affects the standings by one full game. If the Reds get swept they're a full 6 games back. Also, at some point, you have to feel like you can beat the best...right now that's STL, and right now the Reds haven't shown the ability to do so.
Freese walks
So far it seems this team goes as Votto goes.... I really believe Ludwick was a huge injury to sustain.... The LF triumphrate has performed admirably but having someone with scary power in the middle of your lineup is tough; especially when Dusty does not set the lineup accordingly
Plus Ludwick brought some actual veteran leadership
Ondrusek about to help end this game early.
Jay doubles to left. 4-0 Cards.
St Louis about to blow this wide open.
This guy vs. the Reds has gone beyond the point of ridiculousness.
L.O. still gainfully employed by the Cincinnati Reds, remarkably.
Rounding third and heading for home...
Good idea, Baker....Ondrusek's on tonight! Let's keep him in.
No way Kozma gets out here. The kid is clutch.
This Cardinals team is just better than ours. On every level.

And now a double, and this is just sad.
