That may have been the most "Un-Cardinal" loss of the entire year.
In typical Cardinal fashion.....tie game late:
Cards leadoff guy draws a walk on a 3-2 pitch:
Next batter - double play ball.....but the Brewers kick it:
Up to that point.....Same Old Cardinal Ballgame.....
But then........
Maybe FairGambit is a pessimist????
With two on and none out, Juicer Peralta strikes out on a 3-2 pitch, and the lead runner is cut down at third.
Then, in the ninth, Rosenthal gives up a lead off go-ahead HR to Davis.
Cardinals, once again get the lead off man on in the ninth.....but after sacrificing to second.....next two guys do their Baez/Soler impression (and strike out)
