Tie this thing up, Kyle.
-
This challenge shouldn't be happening if the ump gave Montgomery the same zone he gave Kershaw.
-
He gave up one hard hit ball in the 5th. I get the logic to remove him, but the idea that he had nothing left is silly. Walked a couple guys also though.
-
Taylor had 22 homers in 1923 minor league PAs before this year and 1 homer in 318 major league PA's. So of course he hits 21 in 568 PAs this year (plus one in 49 in the minors).
-
Guess that's why Rondon was left off the NLDS roster.
-
Rizzo only makes that out because of the garbage strike 1 call.
-
Get Kershaw and get out of this inning tied.
-
Dammit.
-
He gave that pitch to Kershaw 7 or 8 times.
-
Alright Puig. Time to reenact the 9th inning of Game 6.
-
This zone is crap but it seems to be fairly consistent. Q has gotten a few strikes to righties that appear to be outside. He hasn't thrown many low though.
-
I would guess Rondon/Strop/CJ, with Montgomery and Duensing as possibilities depending on if you might get a few LH in short succession. Did Joe say anything about Wade's availability?
-
This is the complete opposite of Game 5. Ump is calling every low pitch a strike.
-
ALMORA!!
-
Barnes is moving the glove 6 inches on every close pitch. He's not even trying to be subtle about it.
-
The TBS feed is about 15 seconds behind gameday which means it's probably 30 seconds behind the live action.
-
Q's wife had an irregular heartbeat. She is fine though. She obviously wasn't used to this playoff stuff after years of him playing for the White Sox.
-
Come on Willy! Lets pounce early.
-
If the Cardinals transferred the ability to crush LA's playoff dreams to us, that would be great.

Yeah, World Series Game 7 is first by a mile. But after that, I'd come up with a different list every time. I tried ranking the games and whatever game I put 9th or 10th, I can't believe I put it that low. Like Game 2 against St. Louis was just the first win in the series. We'd just watched Lackey shut us down the night before and then Carpenter homers in the bottom of the first. But then we put a five spot up in the top of the second on a single, groundout, walk, bunt, bunt, IF single, homer as the Cards threw the ball all over the place. And it's way far down the list. But just getting that one against St. Louis knowing we had Jake on the mound for Game 3 (even though he didn't pitch all that well) gave us all the confidence. Rob listed 10 games that are super memorable. And that list didn't even include Game 3 vs. St. Louis (6 dongs) or Game 6 vs. Cleveland (they gift us a couple runs before the Addi slam all but guarantees Game 7).

You know it's not your night when you throw a ball that gets tipped by three different players before getting picked off by a fourth. The 7th turnover for Wazzou on the night.
-
They even had Harper 2 and Rendon 3 for the first three games of the series and switched to this lineup for Games 4 and 5 because they were more productive (against garbage teams). I'll give Dusty a pass for Turner because pretty much every manager in the bigs would bat him first, but moving Werth to the two spot was inexcusable. Love that we only had to face one of their big 4 in the ninth instead of two.

Friday night does it again. Does that mean Wash St. is going down as well? Down 14 at the half.

Friday night does it again.

The problem with using Lackey in game 2 is it either forces you to skip a starter or not use a starter until a game 5 that may not happen, or use Lackey in two games. wait, what? Use Lackey in 2 game? How? Yeah, the only way you use Lackey twice is if rain pushes Game 3 back a day. Q Lackey Off Lester Hendricks Arrieta Off Q (5 days rest) Lester (normal rest)
