Cards magic number to clinch the N. L. Central is 1 . Shit , Wacha came so damn close to a no - hitter last night . Painful to watch that as it happened but , the rookie pitched a real gem of a game . I'm going to all three Cards - Cubs games this weekend . I'm sure drunken shenanigans will be in abundance . Can't wait !

Sat way up in section 440 last night with my young nephew and watched our Cardinals clinch yet another National League Central Division title in grand style with a thorough butt whuppin' on the Cubs . Going again today and tomorrow as well to see the regular season finale . Can't wait ! Anticipating who the Cards are gonna play in the NLDS . At this point , the Cardinals are relentless with a deep bench and decent young pitching . Yes , a few flaws here and there but , a serious playoff contender for certain . Busch Stadium awaits......Comment

Sat up in 441 yesterday and watched my Cardinals sweep the arch rival Cubbies , clinch the best record in the NL , tie the BoSox for the best record in the MLB ,and home field advantage throughout the NLDS . 10th. postseason in the last 14 years . It's great to be in Cardinals Nation . Awaiting the wild card..........Comment

Going to game # 2 today . I usually save my hard earned vacation days for almighty deer season however , I just had to be there . Sitting way up in section 430 but that's O-kay . It never hurts my feelings to sit up high and far away . In fact , I enjoy the view . Job well done by my Cards yesterday . Got to Burnette early and often . Good stuff but far from over . Busch Stadium awaits.......Comment

Pun intended , this has been one epic mini-series . All knotted up at two games apiece . Everything shifts back to beautiful Busch Stadium tomorrow night . I'll be in section 372 slugging down A-B products . This can go either way . The Pirates have been a tough opponent . The Cardinals are post season veterans . It's gonna be mighty intense . If , I say IF the Pirates do prevail, I will root for them the rest of the way . After losing to the S.F. Giants in the NLCS last season , I wasn't so disappointed when they won the actual World Series . I felt like the Cards just seceded their title to the eventual champion . It took some of the sting off losing .
Regardless , go Cards damnitt ! I want that 19th. N.L. pennant , I want that 12th. World Series title .Last edited by Green Manalishi; 10-08-2013, 05:59 PM.Comment

Good Gosh , Busch Stadium was simply electric last night ! Cards ace Adam Wainwright put on a pitching performance for the ages . God Bless the Pirates. They will be a force to reckon with for years to come however , the postseason savvy Cardinals turned it up a notch and prevailed . On to a 3rd. straight NLCS . Cardinals Nation is a good place to be right now . Bring on the Dodgers......Last edited by Green Manalishi; 10-10-2013, 04:53 PM.Comment

Cards prevail in 13 long innings . Man , what a epic nail-biter ! This series has all the potential elements of unstoppable force/immovable object .
It's raining here . Hopefully , game #2 scheduled for 3:00 pm local is still a go .
Any thoughts on the A.L. ? I think that it is too close to call .Comment

Outstanding contest! I shut it off just before the bottom of the 12th started. If that game is any indication of how the rest of the series will play out, everybody should watch the drama unfold!
I wish both AL teams could lose! Just on principle, I'm taking Detroit.You're gonna hear the angels sing...Comment

Dodgers back in it with a 3 - 0 victory . Outfielder Jon Jays three miscues cruelly reminded me of outfielder Matt Holliday " losing the ball in the lights " at Dodger Stadium in the '09 playoffs . Very unsettling . Give it another go tonight . Go Cards damnitt !Comment

This has truly been a squeaky tight and hard fought series . Dodgers have no wiggle room and are clearly playing like it . Little miscues on both sides have benefitted the opposition . Baseball truly is a game of inches . The scene switches back to Busch Stadium both Friday and Saturday night if necessary . I'd say a game #7 is likely though I would love to see the Cards wrap it up ASAP . Looks like the offense on both sides is waking up . It's gonna be a real good one . The mighty Busch Stadium awaits.......Comment
