So I didn't post my prediction for game 5 here but I was pretty close.  I thought that Wainwright would pitch a decent game but the Cards would lose 2-1.  Tonight I'm predicting that Wacha will allow no more than 3 or 4 hits while he's in the game, but the Cards will still lose. 

Just don't pitch to Ortiz unless you absolutely have to, FFS.

I think Tim was an alternate bat boy once.

He carried those bats on guts alone.

That bat boy has a wicked swing.

Yeah, maybe it is actually time to put Tim McCarver out to pasture.

With the Cards' hitting so anemic in the series, a 3-0 deficit in this game is gonna require a miracle to overcome.

This game is rapidly becoming a coronation.  The Cards need some 2011 type magic here.

I switched over to the Cincinnati-Memphis game after the Red Sox went up 6-0.  Really thought Wacha would have another strong game & keep it close. 

Anyway, I can't be too disappointed.  I'm still basking in the afterglow of 2011.

I was glad Workman got to pitch the 8th there, I was dreaming for a second he might close it out for the Sox.  I guess after 1986 they are not going to have anymore Longhorns close out any game sixes.

Congrats to the Red Sox, they pretty much dominated this season.

Thank GOD I don't live up there anymore.  Yesterday would have been another day where I wouldn't have been able to get home due to all the drunks and scumbags in front of Fenway blocking my way to the train station from my old office.  Today, I'd have to put up with a bunch of lowlifes running around shouting "RED SAWKS" at work instead of working.

Down here, nobody gives a shit. :showoff:
