What team was that wearing PBC uniforms?

Can’t remember the last time the team scored 3 in the first.

McLouth has 7 RBI in the series.

Can Luiz Cruz

possibly be for real?

Cards want nothing to do with McLouth. Gave him 4 wide ones.

Davis sucks

Handed a 6-0 lead, he walks the first guy he sees on 5 pitches. Nice.

Jesus Christ.

Davis is terrible.

Whew.

Davis only gives up one run… 6-1.

What the hey?

JR’s been kidnapped too!!

Although using Rivas as a PH is a total JR move. He’s about as likely to get a hit as Davis.

by WstCstBucco on Sep 14, 2008 2:37 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I think this was an emerency start by Davis...

Karstens was the scheduled starter, no? Davis has been in the bullpen.

In any case Beam comes in and gives up a leadoff double. We’re going to blow this, aren’t we…

by shayborg on Sep 14, 2008 2:39 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Davis

was on a tight pitch count.

We can only hope The Jim Beam is, too.

Why are the Cards announcers so excited...

… that Ryan moved Barton to third with two outs? Seriously, is that considered a big deal?

Because now

there’s 2 bases open for intentional walks instead of just 1

Cardinal fan here......

You all cleaned our clock! I’m not happy about it, but you played better than we did in all three games and deserved to win.

I like your player Nate McLouth-can we have him? Also, has that home run he hit today landed yet? The ball was hit so hard, I thought it would explode…….

She isn't crazy, she's just not impressed.
