Re: Braves/Cards/Giants
Would the thread have been started if it were the same teams involved but in reverse?

Kinda like when Brandon Phillips walks to the plate in St. Louis.

Re: Braves/Cards/Giants
Gracious, has there ever been two choke jobs in the same season as big as the ones we're seeing this year by Boston and Atlanta?

Re: Braves/Cards/Giants
So tonight, the Braves lose, and the Cards tie their games vs. the Astros. It goes into extras, and then Houston wins in the bottom of the 10th on a suicide squeeze bunt.
The Cardinals could have tied it up, like the Rays did tonight. Now, they are one back of Atlanta with two games left to play. The Cards play Houston, the Braves play the Phillies.

Re: Braves/Cards/Giants
Tough loss. The Cards always seem to have trouble against Wandy Rodriguez.

Re: Braves/Cards/Giants
Anything that makes it as gut-wrenching as possible for the Cardinals is what I'm for. The fact that they've clawed back in the race to get to within a game, then they claw back in tonight's game to tie it only to blow it in the 10th is as enjoyable as it gets. In fact, their last two losses have been excruciating defeats snatched from the jaws of victory.

Re: Braves/Cards/Giants
As a Baseball Fan, I love the fact that the WC races in both leagues are nip and tuck and going down to the wire.
