How can you not love this team? Really, it's never fun getting beat but when you look at what the Cards have done it's simply amazing. Last year my Wife and Daughter were nice enough to put up with the game being on for a few weeks. Slowly but surely they got into it and it was a lesson for my little one "Never give up, Never" Finally she could see something real on TV that had a life lesson, never give up and do your best. When she would hit a rough spot in school, around the house, or after school activities I would ask her "What would the Cards do?" and she would say never give up, do your best. This year we traveled to St Louis just to see the Cards not because they are World Champions but because what they did touched all of us. Now flash forward to last night, everyone is decked out in St Louis gear and quickly they are down 6-0, not good and it would not take a miracle or a bunch of hope, but hard work and the unwillingness to give up. I guess that is all a bit personal. Rant over. |

Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
The Nats closer had nothing in the tank.
That said, i watched the whole game, being a basball fan, it was awesome. Gotta love the playoffs. And yes, baseball and other sports, just from indivdual and team efforts, can inspire us to do more. The determination on these guys faces, in all the games in all the series translates to everyday life. I love baseball, i dont follow other sports. Maybe i will watch a Stanley Cup final or the Super Bowl, or a great college match up in hoops and football, but i follow baseball all yr round. |
Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
Ok, how about like them a lot. Friends with benefits :D

Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
With all the focus on Beltran's mammoth post-season play, I just ran into this little tidbit:
"Interesting stat: With his home run on Sunday, David Freese has now driven in 25 runs through his first 25 postseason games. According to ESPN Stats and Info, the only player with more RBIs through his first 25 postseason games is Lou Gehrig with 32." Win or lose the rest of the way, the Cards have done better than I ever thought they would. The fans always thought they had the offense, as inconsistant as it was at times. The surprise for me has been the bullpen. It seems to have gone from a weakness to a strength. That's been the missing piece all season. We'll see ....... |

Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
Well, the Cards pulled a "Holiday" last night. Really can't agree with his reasons to go after the 2nd baseman like that, a dirty play no mater how you look at it. Miller looked really good on the mound but to bad he had to pitch around 2 errors to finish his frame. I do have to say the Giants are a classy team and have great fans, not sure how the "play" at 2nd would have gone down at Busch.

Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
One more ........
Gonna be a cold nite at Busch tonite. |
Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
Get 'er done. Y'all need some time off before hosting the Tigers.

The drama drives me crazy. But the motivation doesn't seem to kick in for the Cards until they are one-strike away from elimination. |

Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
Hated to see the season end with a blow-out like that. Nevertheless, the Cards exceeded my expectations.
Gotta root for Leyland in the WS. Always liked that guy. I'm already looking forward to 2013. Want to see Miller in the rotation and a full season with Rosenthal's fast-ball. Also, expect to see Oscar Taveras with the club before the season is over. Great bunch of young players ... how could a Cards fan not be excited? |

RIP Stan the Man

Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
Cards and Miami preseason. Looks like Rosenthal and Wacha will be on the mound. Speed and grace wish I could see some of Wacha's pitches.

Another good outing for Wacha.

Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
Opening day!!! I'm excitied about all of the young talent. It will be interesting to see if they can perform up to expectations.
|
Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
Start time is 930pm CT I may catch the 1st few innings. Miller has the ball Saturday, that will be one to watch!
|
Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
Wow ... what a season so far. Who would have imagined that the three teams with the best records in MLB would be in the NL Central?
The young players have been every bit as exciting as I hoped they would be. Now .... Wacha!!! He was amazing during spring training and has been lights-out in AAA. A lot of pressure on this young man ... less than 12 months since his last pitch in college ball. It will be interesting to see how he handles it. Wish I had tickets for Thursday night. |
Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
I'm with you! Wacha makes the 3rd call up so far and I'm really not getting my hopes up for tonight. It would be a 4 game sweep and just unbelievable to have another rookie ace. I hope I'm wrong. The Cards are playing outstandingly across the board as well, how about all the RBI's spread over the line up? Lastly did you see the catch Mohica made last night in the bullpen? :D
|
Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
Missed the bullpen catch. Also went to bed after Wacha sat down ... glad I did.
Other than Wacha, we could have used some of those RBI's last night. They left way too many runners in scoring position. Holliday seemed to have missed a lot of chances to put this game away. Boggs ... what can I say? Don't know why they put him in to get the save. The boy seems to be disaster waiting to happen. Wacha didn't disappoint. Don't know about rookie ace but time will tell. Was impressed that he settled down after they got a couple of hits and scored a run. Says something about his temperament. Also noticed that he only threw a very few curve balls and that is suppose to be his best pitch. I am curious about something I saw. He seemed to tip his cap, just slightly, after every inning as his stepped over the first base line. Acknowledging the fans or superstitious? Anyway, if he continues to pitch like he did last night, he will be a terrific addition to the rotation. |
Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
Yup, Boggs. Ryan Franklin comes to mind, but he was a great closer at one time (Franklin). I think Manass, could have been left in. Or even have Kozma close it out, LOL! But, Kozma has really impressed me this year with his fielding. I did not see the cap tip but I thought I noticed his knee go up slower with every change up. Giants are up next and no disrespect to the Royals but it will be good to see the Cards play a team that is doing something.
The bullpen catch was the night before last, check out the highlight reels I'm sure its on there! |
Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
Rain ... rain ... rain. At least it's a good day for Boggs to pack his bags for a little trip to Memphis.

Cards sensed blood in the water from Cain and went into the 2 out piranha mode.

Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
Let's play two. Oh no ... another left-hander.
Oh well ... guess I will just have to relax, watch Wanno and enjoy my martini and this 98 Boli PC. |
Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
6-1 DP ... Wow ... Cool

Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!

I don't understand why they carry national broadcasts the way they do. Usually masn has the Nationals games, but yesterday they showed the Oriels to make room for the Nationals Braves on Fox. I would expect Fox to carry the Cards since it is out of market and Masn to carry the Nationals as usual. Oh well, Ill check out the recapture on mlbtv. |
Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
I can't believe that Yaddi was tossed today. From what I am reading he knew he was out and that's why he threw the helmet, because it was a rally killer. I'm hoping he does not get a suspension from how he handled it afterward, but to be honest he probably will.
Freese played a hell of a game on D and Kozma was fine as usual. |

Hope the Cards play the Diamondbacks better than they did to start the season. |
Re: St Louis Cardinals Fans Sound Off!
1 game suspension that is being appealed. I personally think he should have gotten more, no excuse for his blow out after the call.
Great game last night, the signature 2 out rally aka blood in the water piranha mode was in full effect! |
