A.J. is done.

 

[Jrmint]

Wow.

Oh well, it's only 1 of 5 games.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

3 BB, 1 HBP

 

[eznark]

Fuck you pirates

 

[Caja 117]

The same A.J. when he was in the Yankees.

 

[OriginalNameGuy]

4-0, no outs, bases loaded


I'm not a huge baseball guy, but you have to make a pitching change here right?

 

[harSon]

Told ya'll about Hurdle. He likes to go down with the ship. He's always 1-2 scoring plays to late with the yank...

 

[beanman25]

WOOOOOOOO!!

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Wow. That's it.

 

[BFIB]

Ouch. Big ouch.

 

[Opiate]

Very good start for the Cardinals.

I do wish Pirates were not our first round competitor; if the Cardinals don't win, I definitely want the Pirates to do so.

 

[Lambtron]

Sweet jesus, Burnett.

 

[Tawney Bomb]

Goddamn Pirates, what is happening to you?

 

[eznark]

4-0, no outs, bases loaded


I'm not a huge baseball guy, but you have to make a pitching change here right?

At this point make Burnett eat it and save the pen for a winnable game.

 

[jakncoke]

AJ era here going to increase beyond 8.10.. fucking.. FUCKKKKK

 

[brianjones]

what a disaster

playoff cardinals are scary

 

[Jubs]

Lol AJ

 

[Surge]

Time to take Burnett out now, Clint?

 

[jakncoke]

 

[Little Green Yoda]

AJ's ERA at Busch3 is probably in the stratosphere now

 

[harSon]

MLB needs to investigate Hurdle. Think he might be the new Pete Rose. Dude's obviously got money on the Cards! That, or he's retarded.

 

[clockworkinyou]

I'm not happy in the pants anymore.

 

[jakncoke]

AJ's ERA at Busch3 is probably in the stratosphere now

I cant even..

 

[beanman25]

Leaving for the Blues opener!

GO CARDS!!!

 

[harSon]

Fuck 1 game wildcards btw.

 

[jakncoke]

Leaving for the Blues opener!

GO CARDS!!!

 

[harSon]

Hurdle just doubled F'd us. I can understand riding out AJ and preserving the bullpen at the expense of winning the game, but throwing both into oblivion in one retarded decision. Thanks Hurdle

Beltran is one of the most underrated players I've ever seen in my lifetime. Dude should be a lock for the HOF when his career is over but I seriously doubt he ever gets in.

 

[Caja 117]

Remember watching the 2009 Playoff with the Yankees, one game A.J. would pitch a gem, next game he allowed 6+ run in less than 3 inning.

His brief half year dragging the choking Astros to the World Series was amazing. Never held it against him he wanted out

They didn't go to the World Series that year. They got eliminated in the NLCS by the Cardinals.

 

[Windu]

wtf pirates

 

[harSon]

One thing we're not good at is clawing our way back into games from sizable deficits. Typically when we go down, we cease scoring runs altogether. Our team seems to get demoralized easily.

 

[squicken]

Wow. I totally have my repressed memories crossed. I could have sworn he played in the WS. Oh well. Back to not caring about the Astros

 

[jakncoke]

Clint fuck you

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Beltran has been close to the WS but has never gotten there.

Nice grab by Alvarez.

 

[CygnusXS]

See guys, the Pirates are right back in this already

 

[harSon]

Maybe if Clint had made the decision at 3-0... or 4-0... we'd be in the damned game right now. But Hurdle gotta #Hurdle

 

[jakncoke]

This game is fucked. Im going to jump into a wood chipper

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Wow. Cards are no joke in postseason.

 

[jakncoke]

Wow. Cards are no joke in postseason.

Burnett in Busch. Before the game his era was 8.10

 

[harSon]

Barmes' only benefit to this lineup over Mercer is defense, and he can't even do that correctly -_-

 

[jakncoke]

Tomorrow better be better. This game is fucked

 

[Windu]

This game sucks. Hurry up braves/dodgers.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

This game sucks. Hurry up braves/dodgers.

Yeah, we're all waiting for a Kershaw gem with double digit Ks. Maybe we can see the fans throw trash on the field again.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Yeah, we're all waiting for a Kershaw gem with double digit Ks. Maybe we can see the fans throw trash on the field again.

Even you should be able to find humor in the fact that trash pelted the field when Mitchell Boggs was pitching.

 

[KidA Seven]

Everyone's going to jinx based kershaw.

 

[BFIB]

Even you should be able to find humor in the fact that trash pelted the field when Mitchell Boggs was pitching.

It was probably hard to separate the trash from Boggs.

 

[RGVNOE]

Nice play by Martinez

 

[RumblingRosco]

Burnett in Busch. Before the game his era was 8.10

Yeah, I won't read into this game beyond this statistic. AJ sucks at Busch 3. Still, fun game for the Cards. Also, Beltran fucking WANTS that ring.
