After sitting there last night watching the 3 fer 60 Brandon Moss be put into the cleanup spot by Matheney last night in the big Chicago game I came to a conclusion.
It will take a literal miracle for the Cards to make the WC playoff game.
Yes, he went 0-4. Yes, he struck out with the tying run in scoring position late in the game. And yes, he missed the ball with his bat by a country mile most every time he swung.
Thanks Mike!
And after settling into my seat to watch a little of the Cards game last night and seeing Garcia take the mound, I felt the same way. Then seeing Moss in the lineup, batting .064 over the past month, I just gave up after the first inning. It is pretty rare that you know a game is over after the bottom of the 1st inning but last night was one of those games. I watched the 2nd inning and that was all I could stand...
Tonight the Reds throw some no-name, young kid with a 5.50 ERA at the Cards. And we throw Wainwright (with 4.57 ERA of his own). Should be a guaranteed victory right? I guess we'll see...
