Matt Carpenter (13) Welcomes Matt Holliday (7) Home
Or is it 4? The Cards landed a playoff berth last weekend, abet only a Wildcard birth. After the Redbird win yesterday and the complementary Pirate loss, the Cardinal’s magic number for division lead is one, but in the home field advantage race versus the Braves, the magic number is four. A near no-hitter versus Washington capped some pretty good baseball coming out of the NL Central this late in the season.
I don’t know what the Cardinals magic number is, but I do know that the Tigers number is ZERO!!!
And the Mariner’s is somewhere near infinity – but did you see Carl catch a home run last night? (Wednesday)
ah! she lives. I wonder when she’ll update her blog…. it’s almost October.
