Oh My God, we are in the playoffs!

Keeping up with my belief in superstitions during the baseball season I might as well be tardy in updating my blog. I didn't update in September which really isn't a bad thing since the Cardinals didn't really play that well, 12 wins, 16 losses including a 7 game losing streak. They almost didn't even make the playoffs losing the last game of the season to the Brewers. If it wasn't for the Braves beating the Astros there might have been a make-up game against the Giants on the day after the season officially ended. But enough about that, they won the division and the second season began with the chance to redeem themselves and play the way they were expected to. They were labeled the underdogs and supposed to lose to the Padres, they won 3 games to one. They were basically told that the Mets would sweep them, but Suppan pitched an amazing game, Molina hit an amazing home run and Wainwright threw an amazing curveball past a frozen Carlos Beltran with the bases loaded to send a few veterans and a bunch of rookies to the World Series!
