NLCS: St. Louis Cardinals vs. New York Mets

Recommended Posts

Despite the result, Maine and Perez both really came through these past two games. They deserve so much credit.

If they're not able to finish this game tonight due to weather, will they just pick up where they left off tomorrow, or...?

I think the best option would be to combine the two teams onto one roster. Then the World Series might be competitive.

Let's not say anything crazy like that.

 

I wonder if the NLCS winners will get Detroit Tigers World Series Champions teeshirts to wear.

Thanks, Chris.

 

I'm really in awe of how well Suppan is pitching. 99 balls thrown and he still looks great.

I don't understand why Randolph won't put in Oliver though. He's fresh and he had success against the Cards in Game 3.

Just a guess, but he might be saving him for extra innings if they need someone to go long.

Still, as has been said, it's Game 7. All hands on deck. No point saving pitchers just in case they have to play extra innings. Stick with one of your most reliable pitchers to keep the score tied.

Realistically, they'll need to save someone, and it'll probably be either Oliver or Trachsel. I'd feel more comfortable with Oliver pitching a few innings in relief than wasting him on just an inning or so.

Now Willie, please, for the sake of my sanity and the sanity of everyone here, if the score is still tied at 1 at the top of the ninth -- for the love of God, don't bring out Billy Wagner.

He's warming up.

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.
