I don’t know what we expected with the Padres, the Cardinals’ (at the time) closest competition for the second wild card, coming into Busch. I’m pretty sure it wasn’t that, though. Nobody expected a three game sweep that put St. Louis firmly in the driver’s seat for another postseason appearance. A surprise, to be sure, [...]
Riddle me this. What bird is flying north for the winter? That would be the Cardinals, who are moving up the standings and now sit a full game ahead of the Padres and a game and a half ahead of the Reds for the second wild card. I’m not trying to be a joker about [...]
