2006 World Series: Detroit vs. St. Louis

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Leland should fine Rodriguez for that bad a turn at bat.

3-2 Cardinals

[stevejrogers]

6 outs away...

[Guest cooby]

Crap

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

4-2 Cardinals after 7.

[Valadius]

This is so painful.

[metirish]

Yeah this is horrible..it should be us having fucking fun tonight...

[Zvon]

I tuned in to Dr Who for an hour.
Did I miss any errors?

[metirish]

Fair fucks to Sean Casey..he has done the biz ....keeps the Tigers alive right now...

[Frayed Knot]

]Did I miss any errors?

Several, including more from Detroit pitchers.

[Zvon]

Pudge has had absolutely the worst at bats in this series that i have ever seen in post season play.

[Zvon]

everyone in the stands is either on the cell phone or taking pictures with their cell phone.
Welcome to the 21st century.

[Frayed Knot]

Pudge has never been a discliplined-type hitter. He's just usually good enough to get away with it. Not this week.


Took a pair of brass ones for Polanco to take that 3-2 pitch!!

bask in the warming glow of the reflected glory.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Inge should probably take the Greyhound back to Detroit instead of the team charter after the game he had tonight. Striking out for the final out was just icing on the cake.

[Frayed Knot]

Well, those were the Tigers I had been complaining about all season.
Every time I saw them they were stinking up the joint with undisciplined hitting & pitching and shakey defense ... and they continued that right up until the moment they won 7 straight vs the Yanx & A's and suddenly looked unbeatable.
They weren't.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Is this the first time that a team has won the World Championship in their first season in a new ballpark?

Like Beltran?

[Valadius]

It should be us out there celebrating...

Inge gave this game away with his poor fielding and baserunning in the early innings. The strikeout was on top of that.

[metirish]

Yeah I know SK,I'm just pissed that we are not celebrating tonight....we should be..

....we'd look kinda silly,...
being Met fans and all.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Inge also hit a little, so he's well down the list of goats if anyone's compiling one. Dumb to get caught on the basepaths, but physical errors happen and better hitters than Inge have made the last out in a playoff series.

[metirish]

Sean Casey has no reason to hide....no one else showed up...

[Valadius]

Fucking Looper is having the last fucking laugh tonight...

[metirish]

I'm happy for Looper..good for him to have a laugh...

[Zvon]

In light of the Cardinals taking the series, Looper is the last thing on my mind.
Actually, he's not on my mind at all.

Congrads to the redbirds.
I tip my Met hat to em.

(did you hear how Selig had to mention the Cards getting thru the Mets? What a dork.
But that was clearly the best series this post.
He knows it.
Saying Mets aint gonna help your WS ratings commish. Nice try tho)

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Don't feel bad. We'd have been rained out tonight.

Well I recall the 1923 Yankees. Like it was yesterday. The Cards also did it in 1967.

Time to ruin someone's ring ceremony!

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

I thought this was the second year for the Cardinals in the new park?


Well, the World Series is over and, at the risk of pissing off Tom Lasorda, I didn't see a single moment of it.

The last pitch I saw this year was the one Beltran looked at.
