I'm having a lot of fun watching this series.... After seeing Pujos launch one 400+ feet, I'm reminded just how amazing of a hitter he is..... holy cow. He had a great night and looks to be back just in time to finish things up. Hopefully he will want to stay a Cardinal next year. Big props to the bullpen too.

It's been a great series so far... Texas is a talented team so I'm not counting them out, but it's going to be pretty hard to come back after last nights loss for them.

Your killing me. Pulos is an amazing hitter and put on a show last night for sure. But....I'm not giving up on the Rangers yet.

Yea, unfortunately we cant count the rangers out due to unforeseen things that commonly happen in sports

I was listening to the game on the radio and they said that the reason the Cards have such a huge fan base was because back in the day their radio affiliate could reach 2 states away and there weren't any other local teams to root for so people were drawn in. I'm not a crazy baseball fan, but the Cards have a pretty rich history. I was sad to see Busch stadium go, but the new one is very nice with a great view of the skyline. Now they really need to get their act together and get get some bars and restaurants surrounding that stadium so visitors could make a day or weekend out of going to see a game w/o having to walk to blocks to get a good dinner.

How about that strike zone last night? Must have been nice to have both sides of the plate!

Andrew Jackson fought against a National central bank (now the Federal Reserve) and a fiat currency....... only to wind up pictured on one of it's notes.

Ain't it the truth. Hope we have better luck tonight.

It's been a great series so far. I'd much rather have this than one team dominating the other. The drama of it all makes it fun!

What a great series....the first two games were GREAT, the third....not so much :) but there's no denying Pujols is THE MAN!

Series tied....hoping for another win for the Rangers tonight!!!!! NAPOLI! NAPOLI! NAPOLI!

Can the game of baseball do away with the intentional walk? That is not baseball!

How dumb must the Angels feel for getting rid of Napoli? That guy is a great player.

That game 6 tonight might be the craziest baseball game I have ever seen! How the Cards got up off the floor again and again and then pull off the win was incredible!

That is the way the game is to be played. A battle to the end, amazing pick off's, home runs, pitching...etc. Hats off to the Cardinals for an amazing victory. Personally, I'm glad that is comes to the end like this in game 7 with two top teams going at it. Question is - Who is left to pitch?

What an awesome game!!! Probably the best I have ever seen. I have to give the Cards props. What a comeback... twice. They definitely have the momentum going into tonight's game.

Why This World Series Doesn't Matter (http://thedamntrueexperiment.blogspot.com/2011/10/why-this-world-series-doesnt-matter.html)

Because the mainline sports media blows!

Gone are the days of when Jack Buck and Mike Shannon could call a game and in your mind you were sitting in the stands. That was the brilliance of Cardinals baseball on KMOX radio, called by the legendary Buck.... we always muted the boob tube and cranked up the AM radio.

Can't wait for the game tonight... I'm pulling for Freese to be the hometown MVP here.

Defense matters.

And walks. Can't keep giving good teams more than 27 outs
