Thank you. I didn't know every game was game 7 of the World Series.

Furcal singles to center. 7-5 Cards. 7 straight batters have reached. Still no outs.

Yeah I know. But it's a "high leverage" situation so to say. This is why you don't see him in the 8th

Even though they pitched yesterday, he might bring in Hoover or Arredondo just to get out of this inning.

Or else it could be a huge deficit soon.

With who we got pitching Sat, and Sunday...we needed to win this one. Neither of them pitch well in GABP. It could be a 4 game lead by Sunday afternoon, and St. louis would have all the mojo..

Re: 8/24/12 - Reds vs Cards

Everyone was happy when the Pirates were being beat and acting like the Cards were done.... Yeah OK. Just beacuse it happened last year does not mean it will happen again.....but the fact is, this Cards team is better than last year's team.

An ugly night for Latos as he is charged with 7 earned runs.

The Cardinals, as much as I loathe them, have some very playoff experienced players with Holliday, Beltran, Molina and so on... Those guys make a huge difference in these kind of games during regular season. I hate being made to look like a AAA team by the Cardinals.
Seriously? You don't thnk we're a viable contender? Come on man. Don't overreact to the disappoint of this one game.

EVERY pitcher has an off day. That's when the offense has to take over.
