    Still the most competitive, closest, sweep I've ever seen. Casuals would say the Astros got dominated, but they really didn't.

    His brother corrected the record... his mom was Cubs, his father was Cards... he chose WhiSox.

    We’re still blaming Ted Cruz for the home losses though, right? ;)

    Getting swept is getting dominated there's no other way to put it

    If Lidge had finished the Cardinals in Game 6 we had Roy ready for Game 1. It may have been a different series completely
