Pirates @ Cards

[stillmatic32]

Yeah, good idea, trying to steal third on Molina.

I love Marte, but imagine if he had a brain.

Definitely a mistake, especially with the lefty Alvarez batting.

Barmes!!! 3-0

Marte Partay

I feel like Ive seen enough evidence this year that the Cards aren't going to be able to compete with the best teams

Anything can happen in the playoffs

Anything can happen in the playoffs

Or even in this now 4-3 game.

Brand new game. This has been a fun series to watch.

Spoke too soon....

Pretty amazing to see the Bucs put up four runs in the top of the fifth only to see the Cards come back with five in the bottom of the inning and knock AJ out.

Well, at least the Bucs have the bullpen advantage.

Possibly but the Braves and the Dodgers are so very good right now and we're having trouble with the Pirates at home in a month with a large losing streak and a general cooling off period.

 

[hokiehi21]

Im surprised there are pessimistic Cardinals fans. All that organization does is produce talent and win. A lot.

The biggest worry in my book for all the teams in the NL playoff race is the Dodgers going into the playoffs. I have a feeling the Braves will go cold right before the playoffs start.

I think the Cardinals board needs more regulars so I can show my optimism. I think the good thing about how the Cards are built now is that they should be relevant for the next few years at least. The Dodgers just look like the Miami Heat to me a little bit.

I'm sure most Cardinals fans view their team in the same light that Pittsburgh views their Steelers. High expectations but a lot of pride in the product that is put on the field

Cards pen did its job for the first five outs, but not without much peril. Probably be Rosenthal next with Mujica to follow.

 

[HammerDown]

Golden opportunity missed there.

 

[thehobocop]

Martin goin oppo! Game on.

 

[steelparrot]

If we can outlast their closer, we have a major advantage, we played really well in St Louis no matter how this game ends.
