  Two things on that play.....he was a little late getting there as he held his position, and the throw was up the line a bit. Even if he was straddling the bad like Reynolds was saying he is reaching out into the runner to catch it. A little bit better throw makes it an easy out. Pre replay, it would be hard to get the call when you tag the guy that high no matter and now in replay they have to look a little harder at it.
  Better throw=out.

  I do think Royals fans deserve some flack though, their attendance this season was absolutely terrible despite them being neck and neck with the Tigers from about June on yet had similar numbers to that of Houston

  ^^^^I'm not going to give their fans any flack because they are a small market town, and it's hard to believe in a team of no names when you haven't won in 30 years. It takes a while to get into it for the average Joe. Now if their attendance lags next year, after a WS appearance or especially a win....that's another story.

  San Fran's win yesterday decreased the liklihood of an I-70 series.....not that I wanted to see one.

  I think you are thinking of Grady Sizemore going to the Red Sox, not the Redbirds!

  Might be time to Panik if you are a Cards fan

  Obviously a bunch of Reds fans have been calling him Fat Adams again....
  
  Stop it.

  Bit of a heavyweight fight here
• Ironman92

  

  Wainwright is so into this. Very impressive.
• Ironman92

  

  You CANNOT remove Wainwright from this game.
• mhs95_06

  Fat is like the Reds Pena on first, always at least a little fumble, but he came up with a very firm underhand toss to close out the 7th!
• Ironman92

  

  I'll tell you....elimination game on the road, without your good stuff and worn down. Adam Wainwright just went all out #1 stud ace. HOF will and desire tonight.
  
  Quite honestly if I was a Cards fan....I'd be begging him to go the 8th

  And the PITCHER got there and stretched like Freddie Freeman
• mhs95_06

  Should have let Wainright go until he had a baserunner!
• Ironman92

  

  No one in that bullpen has a scratch of resemblance to what Wainwright was tonight.
  
  Tie game 3 pitches in

  I'd had let him go until he said he couldn't.

  I would pay a lot of money to see you say that to Morse.
• Ironman92

  

  A walkoff here would be something else.
  
  Best game I've seen this postseason.

  Matheny has been terrible the last 2 innings
