PBP in the chat room comes through again...PADRES win....Stros within 2 in the loss column with 5 to play......oh man..... DD
I cannot believe the Astros are in it within a week to go. Makes you wonder how far along they might be without Lidge and his blown saves...
What an unbelievable ending to this season...i cant believe we are even sniffing the playoffs...FUIFDSAFLKHLKFJDLKFJLSFH:LIHFL SWEET!!!
And has been there for SEVEN straight games....unbelievable to pick up 7 games on the cards....in one week....SEVEN !!! They have got to be gripping. DD
The Astros are 1 1/2 games back!!!! This is doable. They can win it! They can win it! Oh my, unbelievable. It is actually going to happen. I can see it happening. Just keep winning and walk into the playoffs. This is so exciting!
I was on the ESPN message board for the Cards...and they basically feel like theyve lost the division. They are totally limping towards the finish line right now... We have to absolutely take care of the next two games against the pirates...
Yes!! This meltdown would be the mother of all meltdowns. Heard something today on the radio about a team in the 60's that lost a big lead late and it was the Cards that snuck in. The radio guy was saying that this is the Baseball God's way of evening everything out.
the cards in 67 pulled a huge comeback against the phillies. it's noted as the greatest late-late comeback in MLB history. they overcame a 6.5 game deficit with 11 games to play. with 13 games to play in 2006, the Houston Astros were trailing the St. Louis Cardinals by 8.5 games. with 6 games to play in 2006, the Houston Astros were trailing the St. Louis Cardinals by 1.5 games. unbelievable. this is as good as it gets. if they pull this off, this will top even the comebacks they had in 04 and 05. wow.
