Channel flipping here
Despite TLR, I’m rooting for the Cardinals. Which means Rangers in five or six :-)
I think the Cards in 6.
The Rangers had a soft ride though the play-offs. Tampa barely managed to make it though with a line-up that has several wholes. If the Rangers had mugged the Tigers outside of the stadium, they would have fewer injuries.
The Cardinals not so much. They are scrappy.
"wholes"
Sounds dirty somehow.
Anyway, as I always say: NL all the way!

I can't imagine your thoughts on fractions

Channel flipping?

LOL I was flipping back & forth from watching Nature on PBS
Program on wildlife moving into the quarantine zone around Chernobyl. After that ended I’ve had the game on while doing chores.
Nice play by Pujols there to end the top of the 6th … what say we sign that guy and trade them LaRoche? ;-)
I'm sure they would be happy to part with Jon Jay for a talent like LaRoche.
If they get testy, we’ll throw them Slaten too.
You mean a player-who-is-not-to-be-named-later?

shocking news:TLR plays littleball
Furcal walks, TLR has Jay bunt him to second, so potential future Nats 1B Pujols is walked intentionally …
Brain: "Pinky, are you pondering what i'm pondering?"
Pinky: "Yes, ... wait, ... no, ... never mind"
and Holliday hits into an inning-ending DP
Brain: "Pinky, are you pondering what i'm pondering?"
Pinky: "Yes, ... wait, ... no, ... never mind"
