In the 8th with Andrus not taking the force at second gave the Cardinals new life, and now we know why Nelson Cruz isn't a Gold Glove candidate out in Right Field on the game tying Triple in the 9th.Brenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05471510250599641166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29717561.post-35501121949611792192011-10-28T00:49:56.254-04:002011-10-28T00:49:56.254-04:00that was probably one of the better games i have e...that was probably one of the better games i have ever seen, lots of mistake, but lots of heart also, cya later.dasnakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10175877438189333237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29717561.post-91763601330410120242011-10-28T00:00:16.902-04:002011-10-28T00:00:16.902-04:00edge of our seats now boys, top of the tenth whadd...edge of our seats now boys, top of the tenth whadda game. cya tomorrow.dasnakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10175877438189333237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29717561.post-14690684085351679582011-10-24T08:32:19.489-04:002011-10-24T08:32:19.489-04:00Thanks Snake, glad you like it.

But the Rangers didn't. I am just pointing out that if you believe that something going wrong for you is the prophecy that you will fail, it usually is. Look at the Rangers history. It is filled with bad omens and things. Just pointing out that it might have been why the Rangers turned into the Astros for a night.Brenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05471510250599641166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29717561.post-52636231548868826502011-10-23T23:00:49.955-04:002011-10-23T23:00:49.955-04:00nothing zebster, just curious, nicely run site, th...nothing zebster, just curious, nicely run site, thanks.dasnakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10175877438189333237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29717561.post-84472218173048097922011-10-23T21:16:08.626-04:002011-10-23T21:16:08.626-04:00It's my blog, Snake.

It allowed the Cards to score 4 more runs that inning.<br /><br />The one thing that I did learn from watching the 30 for 30 series episode about Steve Bartman interfering with Moises Alou and his attempt for the catch is that the psyche of athletes is fragile during big games. One bad call or something that doesn't go right can mess with their mind. That is what I think happened to the Rangers. <br /><br />Look at last year, the Rangers made it and the Giants stomped on them. Now, you have the Game 1 victory by St. Louis, the Game two victory by Texas with the help of the Pujols error. So going into game 3, the Rangers are thinking to themselves that we can't win unless we get help from the other team. Then the ump blows a call that is routine most of the time. The psyche blows apart and the Cards roll. <br /><br />I'm sure that the Cards said "let's make this ump famous.", just like the Marlins wanted to make Bartman famous. The Marlins did, the Cards didn't because Pujols went off.Brenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05471510250599641166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29717561.post-83594938786285239902011-10-23T15:19:04.002-04:002011-10-23T15:19:04.002-04:00it was an offensive blowout from st.louis, albert ...it was an offensive blowout from st.louis, albert did well, maybe because of the media pounding from game 2. you are right on about the defensive play. tonight will be of interest because texas needs this one.dasnakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10175877438189333237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29717561.post-50530443003884854232011-10-23T13:05:01.700-04:002011-10-23T13:05:01.700-04:00You want to know the truth?
