The Cardinals and Braves face each other this afternoon in a deciding game 5 of their best of five game series. This is what the Postseason is all about. This is when the players come to play, where legends are born. The Cardinals will call on the young Jack Flaherty. Does he look nervous?

I am a little nervous, but fortunately for the Cardinals Jack Flaherty looks cool as ever. Soon we will know just how cool he is.
