Re: Go Nationals!
Absolute chokers. Even worse than the Reds. It's just sad that the Reds couldn't make the comeback that the Cards did.

I do think they seem to get all the close calls, and amazing luck too though. That hit off the shortstop's glove to tie the game???C'mon! With most MLB shortstops, thats a third out.

Re: Go Nationals!
Every year since I got heavily back into baseball in 2006 I've been saying 'just somebody please beat the Cardinals'. And every year it eats at me.

Re: Go Nationals!
Frankly, I'd rather have lost to SF than lose to the Cardinals in the NLCS. You can't beat a team that repeatedly gets every break in the world.

Re: Go Nationals!
I can't get over who just got those hits for them.
Descalso, of the career .654 OPS and 5 career HRs in 734 ABs, hits two in a series and goes has three clutch hits in game 5. Pete Kozma, he of the .654 career minor league OPS, gets the winning hit. I maintain that this is Miguel Cairo and Paul Janish that just got game winning hits for the Cardinals.

Re: Go Nationals!
I wonder if this burns the Reds players half as much as it kills us?

Re: Go Nationals!
Not even the BRM made comebacks like this in the playoffs ...that the Cards have done these last 2 years.

Re: Go Nationals!
We didn't make the playoffs because of a pity system of barely being the 5th best team in the NL though.
