If you survived 2011 game 6 you can survive anything.

Yeah, that was a good one.

And that comeback against the Nationals in 2012.

I picked the wrong inning to walk away from the Cards/Dodgers game. Sheesh!

Well, the Cards are coming home from LA tied 1-1. I'll take that.

But the big game today was the Nats vs the Giants. 18 innings !!! What a brutal loss for the Nationals. After an incredible performance by Zimmermann, and have him pulled for the closer with 2 outs in the 9th only to have the Giants tie it 1-1, then for the game to remain tied until the 18th. The longest post-season game ever.

My condolences to the Nats fans - that was a tough one. Good luck on the road. (The longer these series go the better I think it is - more great baseball for all of us to enjoy.)

If you don't jump on the Giants early you are in for a world of hurt, they thrive in these nail biter low scoring games.

Will there be temptation to hold Bumgarner back and start Vogelsong or Lincecum on Monday? I say go with Bum, you've got to finish the job asap. But it would also be nice to start him in game 1 of the NLCS (gotta get there first)

That is an interesting thought! Haven't seen that much around. It could end up being TOO much time off for Bumgarner though. Look what happened to Kershaw in game 1…

Crazy that we got the first two in DC. Never would have expected that. Looking forward to Monday!

Also, I think Posey was safe on that replay in the top 9th yesterday, would have ended it at 2-1. But not enough to overturn out call.

Pretty nice to have Brandon Belt back!

Wow - who would have ever predicted that? The Royals sweep the Angels. Did Josh Hamilton get a hit in any of the games?

Looks like all the other series will be done, as the Cards and the Dodgers grind it out.

And they hit home runs. The Royals hit home runs! Last in the league at that, less than 100 for 162 games. 4 in three games.
Wonder who I have to sleep with to get tickets to the game in Baltimore?

Giants just beat the Nats, so Giants in 4.

So the NLCS is now official: Cardinals vs Giants

Bring 'em on!

PS This is probably going to be a brutal series - two teams that really grind it out.
