Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Not a great night for the Royals. Sure hope they bring their 'A' game this afternoon. Looking forward to Cards & Cubs tonight.
J-BAR #18287 Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Yep. Disappointing for sure. Today's game is going to tell us a lot. Here's hoping for good news!! I just hope Morales can keep his bat hot.
SGT. QUINCANNON, SASS #32999 Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Oh, man! When I saw the title of this posting I thought someone had pooped in your well.
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Well, today we will see what the Cardinals have in store for the coming week. The thing about the play offs is that it usually shakes out the wannabes and the guys that want to play ball come through. Not always the case, but it usually is. The Cubs came to my attention during the regular season because I have been watching the Cardinals and their lead in the National League Central. Both the Cubs and the Brewers were blowing teams away that in years past have been dominate. Well, the Cubs made the cut, the Brewers didn't. Now I am wondering if the Cards are just overconfident or the Cubs have a secret weapon. We shall see how things play out.
J-BAR #18287 Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Whichever teams get the final nod, I love the post season. It's a fresh start for all the teams and anything, ANYTHING can happen. And does.
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Well, it brings a new level of interest to the players, that is for sure. Flash money on the table and the game takes on a new appearance. Also the fan involvement makes a good impetus to the players. They seem to feed on the adulation of the masses.
Charlie Harley, #14153 Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Any post-season without the Yankees has my attention. Now if only my Reds could make a run at it one of these years.
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted October 9, 2015 Author Posted October 9, 2015 Bottom of the 3rd, Astros 4, KC 1. Doesn't appear the Royals have gotten their money's worth since hiring Cueto.
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 KC had their work cut out for them today. But a win is a win. Chicago is giving St. louis a run for the money. 1/zip but I would not count the Cubs out just yet. ED: About five minutes after I posted this I tuned in the game. Bang Cards hit a home run over 400 feet from the plate. Score 2/0 Next up a walk, then Carpenter hits a home run. Cards win 4/0. Now you know why I am not a sports writer.
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted October 10, 2015 Author Posted October 10, 2015 Whew, big day for both teams!
