Red Birds vs. Red Sox
Vizcaino grounds out to 2nd to end the game. Congratulations to the Cardinals! Nice to see the best team in the league make it to the World Series. It will be an all red championship round.
What a weak ending for the Astros hitters. No patience, no working the pitcher. They had a great run, but they ran out of gas tonight.
The Cardinals big four came through again. All four of them slugged over .500 for the NLCS. I'm glad for Larry Walker, who's had a great long career. I'm happy for Scott Rolen, who was driven out of Philly onto a winner.
The Red Sox have to hope Tony La Russa will give away outs like he did tonight. The Red Sox will be making every effort to get on base with every hitter.
To the World Series!
