Fox News published an article concerning the St. Louis Cardinals. The St. Louis Cardinals won Wednesday night, beating the Astros 8-0. The Atlanta Braves lost their game in the 13th inning 4-3, enabling the Cardinals to clinch the wild card race. The Cardinals had one of the greatest comebacks in baseball history as they won 23 of their last 31 games. Cardinals pitcher, Chris Carpenter struck out 11 and allowed two hits in his 15th career complete-game shutout with the St. Louis Cardinals. Three weeks ago, the Cardinals had virtually lost all hope. However, they decieded they would finish the year strong and unexpectedly, they won the Wild Card.
I loved this article. I was so happen when the Cardinals won their game on Wednesday night. I can only hope that they keep up their winning streak and do well in the post season.
There was great rejoicing in our family when the St. Louis Cardinals won and the Atlanta Braves lost on Wednesday night. I posted last week about the Cardinal and their situation. When I posted last week, I had very little hope that the Cardinals could win and that they could move on to the playoffs. However, I was wrong. They did indeed win and I am so happy that they did. My whole family are Cardinals fans. I have known no other team to cheer for other than the Cardinals. I kept telling my family when the Cardinals were losing and not looking good in the middle of the season, that they were going to do really bad and then probably get really good towards the end and win the World Series. While I did say this, I didn't quite believe it all the way. I am so glad that the Cardinals have surprised myself and my family. I hope that the Cardinals can do really well in the post season. It would be so fun to see them win it all, especially since they did not have a great season. I always love it when the "underdogs" or someone unexpected wins something. I hope the Cardinals can pull things together and stun everyone in the post season.
H. Jackson Brown, Jr. once said, "I never expect to lose. Even when I'm the underdog, I still prepare a victory speech." Go Cards!
