CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2006 Looking through the record, there have only been three game sevens that went extra innings. 2003 ALCS (NY d. Boston) 1991 World Series (Minnesota d. Atlanta) 1924 World Series (Washington d. NY Giants) Also, game eight (a deciding game) in the 1912 World Series went extras. The Red Sox beat the Giants. You forgot '97. Everyone's trying to forget '97. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brett Favre 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2006 I don't care if i'm going to get bashed for this, but Wagner is to blame. Seriously, if he pitched well, he would have been pitching this inning, no doubt. He cost them the series with his crappy ass performances, even when he didn't pitch like tonight.

NYU 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2006 Either way, this game can't be blamed on the pitching. Oliver Perez did almost anything you could have asked from him. And the bullpen was bound to choke. It's the fact that this daunting Mets lineup couldn't get a damn hit off the Cards pitching staff since the first inning. With the exception of Game 4, their hitting has been weak this entire NLCS, and tonight was the cap to that. Let's hope Minaya gets some better starting pitching for next season and, for God's sake, revamp the bottom of the lineup. Green, Valentin, and Chavez (as much as I thank him for the catch tonight) ain't going to cut it next season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Except for the fact that this series might have ended last night if Wagner didn't blow Game 2 immediately upon stepping onto the mound. Where do you jokers come from?

NYU 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2006 Julio Lugo is dying to go to the Mets and has been quoted as saying he'll even take a pay cut if he needs to. He's a step up from Valentin, at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Felonies! Report post Posted October 20, 2006 Question: why do they say "the ____ are going to the World Series" instead of "the ____ win the pennant"? They should do the latter.
