There is no K in McGreevy, Alcala, Romero, or Leahy.

...Baseball can be an easy game...sometimes... Cards proved that tonight...won the game without striking out a single Redleg. They were also outhit 8-7 in the game... Reds exercise in futility there in the 9th...

Cards win the game and the series. Go for the sweep tomorrow. They are putting the fear of missing the post-season in the Reds with this series.

Cards play hard to the end win or lose.
Chance to move ahead of the Reds tomorrow.

There is K in Walker though. Seen quite a few from him this year.

...Gotta give a lot of credit to the genius manager, Oli, for the way he guided the Cards to two wins here in Cincy. and that execution of the bases-loaded infield fly rule was OUTSTANDING...really faking out Cincy, thinking that the Cards didn't know how to play the game...

Most of the Cards Talk couch Managers didn't know what was going on either. A universal pass has been given on that play.

Yes, quite shrewd by Oli. Create the illusion you have no clue and then beat their brains out.

If it were a universal pass, it must have been thrown by Arch Manning.

A few games ago, Oli was being bashed on the GDT for not using ALL of his BP arms. Now here we are.

He uses the same BP guys every night. Guys arms are going to fall off.

So mental lapses by professional ball players are the managers fault?

Man, that's some traditional pretzel logic by CT
