Cardinals Move On To Third Straight NLCS

by @ Monday, October 9th, 2006. Filed under 2006 NLDS

Alright, the Cardinals took care of things yesterday and disposed of the Padres.  I really thought last night’s game might have been our last chance.  It was at home and with our ace on the mound, and the team came through.
Carpenter was touched up for two runs in the first inning, but then he was [...]

Padres Force Game Four, Beat Cardinals 3-1

by @ Sunday, October 8th, 2006. Filed under 2006 NLDS

Jeff Suppan got knocked around yesterday. He gave up three early runs in the fourth and that ended up being the difference.  He had also gotten into a jam in the second inning but he pitched his way out of it.  Fortunately, the pen did some really nice work and five relievers combined for 4 [...]

Dodgers Face Elimination After Game Two Loss to Mets

by @ Friday, October 6th, 2006. Filed under 2006 NLDS

Talk about a must win situation.  The Dodgers back’s are against the wall now and they’ll need to win three straight games to move on to the NLDS.  The Dodgers never got their bats going in this one and it cost them dearly.
Hong Chih Kuo gave up only four hits in 4 1/3 innings but [...]

Mets Take Commanding 2-0 Lead in NLDS Behind Great Pitching by Tom Glavine

by @ Friday, October 6th, 2006. Filed under 2006 NLDS

Okay, no crazy play at the plate for Dodgers fans to hide behind in this one.  Tom Glavine just shut them down for six innings before the pen did their job in the final three frames.  The only blemish was a solo homerun by Wilson Betemit off of Aaron Heilman in the eighth inning.
The Mets [...]

Jeff Weaver, Bullpen Shuts Out Padres to Take 2-0 Lead

by @ Thursday, October 5th, 2006. Filed under 2006 NLDS

Man, what a pick up.  Jeff Weaver had done nothing but get shelled all season.  Then he comes to St. Louis and after a rocky start, he’s found his groove.  This afternoon, he was nothing short of awesome.  He went only five innings, but he gave up only two hits as he and four relievers [...]

Dodgers Drop Game One In Tight Game to Mets

by @ Wednesday, October 4th, 2006. Filed under 2006 NLDS

Almost only counts in horseshoes and hand gernades and the Dodgers almost pulled this one out.  They jumped out to an early lead, gave it up, came back, gave it up again and almost came back again.  They’ll just have to get the job done tomorrow.
Derek Lowe didn’t have his best stuff and he gave [...]

Mets Edge Dodgers in Game One of NLDS

by @ Wednesday, October 4th, 2006. Filed under 2006 NLDS

Wow, what a game.  The Mets jumped out to an early lead, saw it disappear and then came back to win it.
The Dodgers got on the board first.  Marlon Anderson doubled home Russ Martin in the second inning and that was the last lead the Dodgers had.  Carlos Delgado and Cliff Floyd hit solo shots [...]

Chris Carptnter and Albert Pujols Leads Cardinals in Game One Win Over Padres

by @ Tuesday, October 3rd, 2006. Filed under 2006 NLDS

This was a huge win.  A lot of people were writing off the Cardinals and while this series is hardly over, we took care of the Padres ace.  Chris Carpenter was very good through 6 1/3 innings and the bats gave him more then enough run support.
Speaking of run support, Albert Pujols hit homerun number [...]
