We only play 16 games against each other on the schedule this season and so far we have 15 of them already including Tuesday's game. Before Tuesday, we the record was 3-11. If we beat them on Wednesday, the season series will reflect a 5-11 record. And looking at the cup half full, I will say that is not a bad result.
cant wait to play them in the nlcs. tonight we will see why carpenter SHOULD NOT receive the cy young.
Yeah if we win tonight then our post All-Star break record against them is 3-5 compared to 2-6 pre-All Star. We're figurin' 'em out!
Do the fans at Busch have to call for a curtain call after every HR hit ? The call for Sanders was lame . The curtain call should be saved for special occasions not a 2 run HR in the freaking 4th inning .
Do you realize the 5 games with the Stros and Reds is the last regular season homestand at Busch? It's historic for Cards fans & franchise, and they are basking in every moment. St. Louis is a tremendous baseball town. Houston will never love the Stros like those people love their Cards.
I see what you are saying there with last homestand and all , I never thought about that . Its just over the years of watching these two teams play each other the fans still did it a lot back three or four years ago . The fabs are passionate I agree , sometimes passion can be annoying though .
Do you remember the first inning of a playoff game against the Braves last year? Beltran made a good-but-not-great (for him) catch in the <B>top of the first inning</B> (nobody on or anything like that), and we all gave him a standing ovation. It was one of the weirdest things I've seen, but fun at the time anyway.
That's no lie. The Astros have the worst fans in baseball. Only in Houston can you have the hometown team on the verge of the playoffs and instead of talking about the successes or the upcoming playoffs, you have idiots talking about how bad the owner is. Pop quiz: How many championships have the Cardinals won in the last decade?
Yes I remember that . The Stros fans have to take an opportunity to cheer for things like that as much as they can seeing these occurances happen few and far between .
