PrintThrough the first six games of this World Series have provided great theater. If the Texas Rangers and St. Louis Cardinals provide a fraction of what happened last night in tonight's Game 7, we will be in for a treat. Matt Harrison and Chris Carpenter will start, and likely be backed by the twin brothers Johnny and Jerry Wholestaff.
Game Time: 5:05 p.m.
TV: Fox

I’m beginning to think if Craig/Freese are legit above average players, the Cardinals could make their team better by letting Pujols go and just signing Jose Reyes and a starter.
I think we'd have heard much more about Freese

Not to take anything away from the Cardinals, but from what I've seen of this game
(which is about 70% of it), the ump has been kind of all over the place, no? Really squeezy at times, at least when I’ve been watching.
But anyway, Cards have had some clutch hits in the game and Rangers haven’t, and Harrison didn’t pitch that well anyway (though I still think he was squeezed at times)

Based on the few times I’ve seen Holliday play LF, that ball Craig caught probably bounces off his head for a home run.

My theory is their fans cant be that upset if he leaves since they got 2 rings/3appearances in 8 years.
And mine is that he can officially share status with Musial if he stays.

The Mets were a powerhouse team, they had to come back to win some games in the series but they were never not the favorite to win that year.

When the Dodgers swept the Cardinals in August
This was Viva El Birdos:
With a 2-7 mark in the last nine games, the Cardinals have been in a standings free fall that has made playoff hopes seem dillusional to even the most optimistic member of Cardinal Nation.
Yes, there are still about five weeks left in the baseball season. And, yes, the Cardinals still have six head-to-head games with the Brewers. The season is certainly not over, but the Cardinals do not seem to currently have a much greater chance at the playoffs than Lloyd Christmas had at winning Mary Swanson’s heart.
This dude was right:
ALCATRAZ looks like the greatest Fox SHOW ever about a rock with cages

The last baseball broadcast of the calendar year using the football music and then coldplay to play us out just feels wrong

Yeah, I bitched about the football music the other night, too. I find it really disconcerting.
As for Coldplay, I’m old and out-of-touch enough that I wouldn’t know them if they played my living room.

adamserrano: According to @jorgearangure under MLB’s old system for determining home field in the WS (alternating seasons) this was an NL year. Calmate.

Great world series. Feel bad for Ron Washington the Rangers Manager. He appears to be a great guy.
