GD has fallen
and can’t get up.
Do you remember Straight "A" tickets to the Cardinals game from way back when?
McGeehee just struck out on my GD
Shannons already announding bout Yadi’s at bat….
The Cardinls have never gone to a World series in a year ending in 9. Every other year they have: 1930, 31, 42, 82, 43, 34, 44, 64, 85, 26, 46, 2006, 67, 87 , 28 & 68. But no 9s, Could this be the year?
holy crap, this narveson fellow
just threw 5 pitches in 5 seconds to yadi
that, or gameday is f’ed up.
he fell down and got a boo boo

he just roundhouse kicks the ball out of the park.

How many pitches was WW at when he started the 6th in Pittsburgh?
and gave up his monthly quotient of runs. Seems like he hits a little wall in the 5th or 6th each game lately. At least he didn’t melt down like last time….

Not that I would advocate this...
but if we did trade him, something like Smoak/Borbon/Andrus/Holland + more wouldn’t be sooo terrible.
I mean, we could resign Holliday no problem AND add a top-rung starter like John Lackey AND take a flier on someone like Harden.

…I see that once again, the St. Louis Cardinal baseball player named Albert Pujols has used his baseball bat to hit a round horsehide covered baseball over the wall in the outfield, where baseball players try to catch baseballs, but they couldn’t catch his and so he was able to round the baseball bases safely and produce another point for the Cardinal baseball players of St. Louis.

Something like the pointless violence without a plot of the Kill Bills
As soon as Landa chugged the milk Pulp Fiction style, I knew it wasn’t going to be different.
Not afraid to nitpick
That first scene was a little bit disturbing
The dude who played Landa did such a good job of portraying the character as pure evil. I don’t know how else to describe it, it just shocked me how well that dialogue was written. The “boards” part at the end of the scene (to avoid any spoilers for people who haven’t watched yet) made me almost uncomfortable.

The intertwining plots weren’t on anywhere near the same level as PF for me. Plus the whole cool messed up timeline thing. It took me a few watchings to really figure out all that happened in Pulp Fiction, don’t think that’ll be the case with this one. Plus IB didn’t have anything close to a scene as cool as the coffee shop. Or the whole Zed thing. But it was really entertaining and probably better acted (which is really saying something).
I like Pulp Fiction a lot if no one noticed.

AL only this year
NL games are all set for Oct 7, 8, 10, 11 & 13 per mlb.com
The Club with the best record in the American League will have the right to decide whether it will play in the seven-day or eight-day Division Series (i.e., whether it will start its Division Series on Wednesday, Oct. 7 or Thursday, Oct. 8). The A.L. Club with the best record will make its selection no later than one hour following the completion of any game that finalizes which club will have the best record in the Championship Season or finalizes the matchups in the Division Series, whichever is later.
TV dictates game times once matchups are set
look for STL to have the early day games in the NLDS when the other games may be LA-Philly, LA-Boston and the Yanks against anyone.
I love having the first game of the DS
a home day game. That might be my all time favorite game of the year.
Shut up, Fritz™.
I remember my mom picking me up after school one day in October of 2000...
I was in the 7th grade. I get in the car and hear that Rick Ankiel has walked 6 and thrown 5 wild pitches, but the Cardinals are somehow winning the game. Crazy times.
V, b.
I was home on leave for my sisters wedding and went to that game.
It was awesome. If only I knew then what would become of young Dick.
Shut up, Fritz™.
that game nearly made me cry
and I was almost 25 years old.
I have a love/hate relationship with the Cardinals' middle relief corps. | Cards on Cards
seems like the playoffs of yesteryear
back when the WS was on when school got out instead of finishing after midnight. Yeah i’m that old.
According to Baseball Prospectus
Their P:C Ratio (Pimp:Chump) is off the charts. The numbers support your argument. Conceivably, this squad is indeed pimp shit.

Playoff roster
no 13 pitchers per Leach’s tuesday blog entry Don’t know if this was discussed yesterday.
One last thing from that session: Mozeliak said that it’s likely the Cardinals will carry 14 position players and 11 pitchers on their playoff roster.
No Welly, Boggs or Thompson on the playoff roster. unless Tony thinks Brad is more useful than the Hawk.
So who are the 6 extra position players?
We’ll call Rasmus a starter for the sake of it, and I’d say:
LaRue
Lugo
Thurston
Greene
Glaus
Ankiel

A.D.A.M. no longer leading the morning SC blurb
That’s more like it. No Cardinals footage whatsoever.
However Sage made a funny with “a couple of walk-offs”. Haha, eat it, Josh.

good and the bad

the bad — Adam’s awesome quote is gone. gone! alas. hope the non-St Louisans got to see it earlier.

It's a "popularity" and "monetary" bias, not an EC bias
If you ever watch any coverage of the Little League WS, every other kid’s favorite team is the Yankees, whether they’re from New England, Kentucky, California, or Texas.
Around one out of every three baseball fans is a Yankee fan. That means one out of every three SC viewers is a Yankee fan.
Furthermore, the richest, most powerful, and most intelligent in the country are generally Yankee fans, aka the people in power. The Yankees would have to have three straight losing seasons before they ever got dumped from top billing—and with the present state of the game, that will never happen in our lifetimes.

uh, no.
because geographically the Cardinals still cover more area than the Red Sox. some of their own polls bear it out. and I did watch the LLWS coverage … Albert gained a lot of ground this year.
and yet the Red Sox get more coverage, and thus more kids are able to see them in action. they literally don’t know any better. more casual fans pick it up because they’re relying on balanced national coverage that never happens. like that clip just now. did we see that tremendous relay from Ludwick to Skip to DeRosa? Of course not. They can’t even pronounce two of those guys’ names.
also, are you saying gdm isn’t smart?

I think it's the other way around
These kids’ favorite players all play for the Yankees/Red Sox because SC shows them nonstop

interesting. you have to click on ‘blogs’ to get to the old catalog of blogs.

Redbirds won!
JAIME GARCIA!
http://www.oursportscentral.com/services/releases/?id=3903316
After more than a two-hour rain delay, the Albuquerque Isotopes (0-1) snapped five scoreless innings, but the Memphis Redbirds had already built all the lead they would need handing the ’Topes a 6-2 loss and taking a 1-0 series lead in game one of the PCL American Conference Finals.
The Isotopes were baffled by Redbird starter Jaime Garcia (1-0), who held Albuquerque to just one hit through 6.1 frames, an infield knock by Jamie Hoffmann in the bottom of the fifth. Until that point, the Redbird starter retired 13 straight, all via the groundball or strikeout. The left-hander, making his fifth Triple-A start, struck out six his first time through the potent Isotopes lineup, including five of the first six batters he faced.
