Their team is excellent, but Cards fans are very easy to confuse.dbdynsty25 wrote:That dude who ran into the grass to catch the HR ball...traded it for a signed bat.

Yep. Didn't realize that was his dad's call from 1991 until I read it this morning at USAToday.com. Very cool. Thanks.TheGamer2 wrote:Nice tribute to his dad.pk500 wrote:Loved Joe Buck's call on the game-winning tater: "Freese hits it to deep center ... we'll see you tomorrow night."

I will never understand why people wear a team's logo to a game where they are not even playing.dbdynsty25 wrote:That dude who ran into the grass to catch the HR ball...traded it for a signed bat.

All year? The Cards were mediocre all year. They just turned it on and won games in September when it counted. So they are the hottest team going into the playoffs...which coincidentally helps them win the series (see Giants, San Francisco for the latest example of momentum). So they clearly didn't earn it all year...they just are earning it when it counts.Lancer wrote:Feel sorry for Texas but the Cards earned it all year. Each games since Sept has been a game 7.
Well put. They are definitely earning it now but not all year. Their last World Series Championship was in an 83 win season (2006) as the wildcard.dbdynsty25 wrote:All year?

D. Freese. Dude had his share of misfortunes and injuries. Each time he came back batter than before.Lancer wrote:Who won MVP?
To be fair, The Cards went through a TON of injuries this year. Craig, Freese, Holiday, and Punto were all on the DL for extended periods. They had to rebuild their bullpen and find a SS that could field. They were are FAR better team than their record indicated by the time they made it to September.Lancer wrote:Who won MVP?
Didn't see the game but thought Texas should have started Holland. What a gut wrenching way to lose the ws being one strike and catch away last night. Texas might not get back for a while.
You're right about SF last year too. They got hot around the same time the cards did this year. Guess it's only worth watching baseball sept on.
Not sure how you come to that conclusion....they lost Cliff Lee right after the WS and everyone thought they would not even make the playoffs this year....they aren't looking to lose anyone off the current team, but it does seem they need some relief pitching.....Lancer wrote:Texas might not get back for a while.
