Divine intervention!
And screw the (censored) Giants.
Never could stand that organization!

somewhere Jeffrey Leonard is rounding the bases with one arm down

And Bob Forsch is about to drill him
In the ribs.

and Chili Davis is calling St. Louis a cow-town.

big loss for them
unlike us, they have something meaningful to play for

Makes it even sweeter.

it DOES

The team sure struggles and is not very good but one thing I gotta say ... They never quit !


PS Who was that Fox play by play announcer ..

As Walker hits the ball down the line, he says 'the Cardinals will take the lead '... then a bout 5 seconds later as he sees all the Cardinals running out to mob Walker , he adds 'the Cardinals walk it off '

I say this as earlier this year, these same guys did a Cardinal game and same thing happened . Bottom of 9th and hit to win it ... He yelled then 'the Cardinals take the lead ... Yikes ! Where did he learn baseball announcing ?

Walker 0 for 25...but, he's only 23!

Is there a long list of young .200 hitters who turned into productive hitters over the age of 25?

Hrm. Justin turner?

Edmond blew up at 25

Then I cheated

Appreciate the attempt. Looking at the careers of all the guys mentioned. It appears they all had decent BAs early as full-time players and then bloomed into all-stars. Walker has left himself a lot of room for improvement.

and speaking of.....walk-off for Walker!

Missed it to see holiday Homer off Yamamoto with 2 outs in 9th. Spoiling the no hitter

Orioles score 4 in the bottom of the 9th to beat the Dodgers.

I muted the imbecile.

by the numbers, Pallante did a good job. but watching the game, seemed like runners on every inning. credit where credit is due, he worked out of it for the most part

Saggesse just doesn't do it for me. dude is spitting the bit. Fermin, otoh, looked pretty good at 3rd. nice casual, and accurate, throws. if we keep a guy for a utility player, I'd keep Fermin

and good for Walker to come thru. been pulling for him, but he's made it hard to stay with him. hopefully he figures something out
