Isn't it great...

how the goal of a switch-hitter is to give yourself a match-up advantage and it does exactly the opposite for Cesar? What the hell is the point?

Harden is pitching a 2 hit-shutout.

Boy, it sure would be nice if he shut out cincy. Shut out, Shut out, Shut out!

Does that work the same way as the no-hitter/perfect game?

I hope so.

Seriously, our season is completely different if we just beat them like normal.

pirates pitcher threw a wild pitch

it hit the wall and bounced right back to the catcher, Barton couldn’t advance

that would actually be a good play

to train yadi on. Throw it over the head, have it bounce off the wall and either throw out or pick off a runner…

Not to pile on

If we lose this game, this goes down as one of the worst loses of the year in my book. Bad opponent, opposing pitcher pitches alright but Cards take crap hacks all night long and ruin a terrific performance AGAIN by Looper. Oh, and Milwaukee loses

larry is notorious for 'jinxing' the team, if you believe in it

he said we couldn’t afford in 2007 to lose Carpenter or Pujols, both get injured.
he often proclaims the offense on a roll, it gets shut down.
he says that the rotation has been great, they get shelled.

Just random chance.
