Re: Go Nationals!

But it's just dumb. Why not let the Astros into the playoffs? Maybe in the bright lights they play like champions too. Because apparently the season doesn't mean jacksquat.

Re: Go Nationals!

Give the Cardinals players credit. They take professional approaches at the plate and they make teams pay.

That inning was an offensive clinic under pressure. The exact opposite of what we see from the Reds.

Re: Go Nationals!

I hate the Cards but Drew Storens dad is a local celebrity and easily one of the worst people I have met in the world of sports. I take great pleasure knowing he is suffering now.

I don't think Patrick is a bad guy. Not my favorite, but that seems mean.

Re: Go Nationals!

Go Giants and Tigers. Never met in a WS. Why not?

Umps screw calls up here and there.....and in these situations you expect him to go with the home side on a close pitch....but the rest was of Storen's doing.
