    Some guys have had a rough night tonight but thankfully a few had a great game. Mikolas seems to have been great. Hopefully we close this game out. I’m getting kind of tired so going to have to call it.

    I think debunk accustomed to striking out, that’s why he does the dead man Walking routine to the batters box. Lol

    The first two batters in the 9th have hit Hicks hard. 1st and 3rd, no outs.

    EuroDandy…Neither have I. Just having a little fun. I did once make everyone leave during the 7th game of the ’06 NLCS. My wife’s friend and her boyfreind came by along with my oldest son, his girlfriend and two of my son’s HS and college friends. They were all talking about this, that and the other thing while the close battle raged at Shea. I told them that I was too nervous to hear all that chatter while the game was on. Chavez robbed Rolen and I asked them to leave. They thought I was kidding. I wasn’t. They went and watched the rest of the game about a mile away at a sports bar. The rest of the night turned out real good…

    Hicks isn’t fooling anyone.

    What happened to Pugs? I guess all the talk of old timers like Cookie, Patek, Blue Moon, etc. put him into an early old man nap.

    Hicks recovers from the bad start to K the next 3 Serpientes. Final is 5-1.

    16 above sea level and a full 4 game lead in the NLC…Hopefully this train has no brakes!

    GO REDBIRDS!

    Hicks pulls the old Mitch Williams routine. Gets in trouble then strikes out the side.

    td, I figured you were funning. On a similar note, if it’s a serious game, like a Cardinals’ World Series or NLCS game, I don’t want to be around others who are there just for the social aspect of it. I guess a good example would be Super Bowl parties. I’m good with them, unless the Packers are playing. Then I need to be with just real fans whose sole focus is the game. Unfortunately, the Cards and Packers haven’t caused me any issues with this in recent years.

    I think Hicks picked up the velo significantly after the first couple batters.

    It’s a Winner! About 2 thirds of the team hit. Other third 0 fers. Team rips 3 for 11. Could of been better but 7th inning was enough to win. Mikolas pitched great again. Seems like Hicks always lets the first 2 batters on. Hits this time-usuallyfers. it’s walks. All in all good solid win. Great to see Goldy and Nado both hitting.
    Go Cardinals!

    Obviously it’s always a longshot, but Goldy’s got a realistic chance in all 3 categories to be the first guy in the NL in 85 years. Kind of interesting that the last guy to do it in the NL was also a Cardinal. Even if he doesn’t get it, it’ll be fun to watch him try.

    Good win last night…glad to take care of business against the middling lefty. Hope to see more good pitching and Goldy bombs the rest of the weekend.

    The NL does not have a lot of guys with the Three Crowns, but two are Cardinals.

    The AL had back-to-back years on 1966 and ‘67 – the days of my youth and passion for baseball.

    Then Miggy did it some 10 years ago. But for the NL you have to go back some 85 years.

    Yep, a Cincinnati cast-off and then Yaz who proceeded to extend his TC bat to the ’67 WS and touch up Redbird pitchers to the tune of a .400 BA.
