2011 World Series Game 6: Rangers at Cardinals, Thursday 10/27, 7:05 CT

Email
PrintThe Texas Rangers could win the first World Series championship in their history tonight if they beat the Cardinals in St. Louis. No weather problems expected, though temperatures will be cool (upper 40s to low 50s at game time).
I know who most Cubs fans are rooting for. When the season finally does end -- either today or tomorrow -- then our sights will be turned to the offseason and changes to come in the Cubs coaching staff (hopefully) and roster.
Meanwhile, Colby Lewis faces Jaime Garcia in Game 6. More game details after the jump.
Game time for Rangers/Cardinals: 7:05 pm. CDT. Rangers lead series 3-2. TV: Fox. Announcers: Joe Buck & Tim McCarver (get your mute button ready).

Go Rangers!
Hopefully they’ll hit ’em hard, hit ’em often & take Garcia out early, forcing the Cards to bring in the bullpen early.
I don't know what this says about me as a baseball fan in general
But my interest in this series is low. As mentioned, my sights are already on what news will come in next.
Is the country bored with this Series?
And if so, why? Is it that the ESPN sports puppet masters have declared this a dull match because New York and Boston are long gone? I’m happy as a clam that the Yankees and the Red Sox are out of this thing. In fact, both LCSs were great because all four teams were from the Midwest/Heartland. The whole East Coast hegemony in baseball had been starting to get me down. Naturally, I’m hoping the Epstein Gang will lead us to a new era wherein the rest of the country will start getting aggravated because the Cubs are always in the NLCS and/or Series. But back to the original thesis — the OP says his (her?) interest in the Series is low. That’s funny because it’s been a great Series with twists and turns, dramas, bizarre managing, good guys and bad guys, excellent play and lousy play. This is terrific stuff.
We have to demand more!

FWIW, the ratings for Monday night's game were better than "Monday Night Football".
I am a Cubs fan, but first and foremost I am a baseball fan and I enjoy watching the World Series. The only one I didn’t see or care to watch was 2003.

I put an asterisk next to the 1981 World Series. That whole season was hosed.
I never did understand that whole “split-season” concept. Should have been the Cardinals and Reds in the NL and Brewers and Athletics in the AL.
by jeffmills1972 on Oct 27, 2011 7:54 PM CDT up reply actions
The purpose behind the split season in 1981
was to get another round of the playoffs in and make up some of the money they lost in the strike.
It’s done in every minor league below Triple-A, of course. But of course, everyone knows that before the start of the season and they did not in 1981.

It won't be that many.
You are forgetting guys like Marshall, Russell who were very good. Campagna is an ideal 5th outfielder. Dempster will be back, as will Cashner and Wells.
I did forget about other pitchers you are right
Keep wells, marshall and cashner.
I like Campagna particularly if we can teach him how to walk. Can you imagine?
I love Demp, and would like him back for sentimental reasons. But if he went I’d be okay. Sort of how I feel about Rami.

it's obviously true.
Napoli twisted his ankle SIDEWAYS in a way that looked like a sure break or ligament damage and walked it off. Holliday left a make or break game in the world series because of a BRUISED finger. And has done nothing this series. I’m glad he’s a Cardinal so I can hate on him a long time.

Agreed, he has not had a hit in any other game.
He was a stud in a nine run blowout and has done nothing in all the close games.
Pujols is the only Cardinal I like.
He’s an epic player.
But this isn’t his series. Napoli and Beltre have shone here. And if I were a Cardinal fan, Allen Craig would be my dude.
OCCUPY BCB. - swl
Bullshit, he's got on base like 6 times.
He’s not getting shit to hit, but he was on base multiple times in two games besides his 3-homer game.

Ok, by that analogy Pena was a top 1st baseman last year.
Of course it is not his fault that the players behind him have not picked up the slack. The Cubs could take a few lessons and NOT pitch to Albert.
If that happened, it would most likely be Phillies vs Rangers.

Cards very fortunate
Some bloop hits, ump calls in their favor, and a bad play by Andrus. Hopefully the Rangers come back tomorrow and take it.
"If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader" - John Quincy Adams
this is how the Cards have ALWAYS won. they aren't fortunate, that's just how Tony LaRussa teams win.
bloop hits and shallow line drives with less than two outs, then doubles and homers.
As much as I hate the Cardinals, I have to say this about the Rangers
They had a bigger Game 6 choke than we could dream of having. I don’t see the Cardinals losing Game 7 after this win tonight. The bullpen didn’t execute. The defense didn’t execute. Ron Washington overmanaged. It was a clusterfrack all around.
RIP Ronnie James Dio (July 10, 1942 - May 16, 2010) and Ron Santo (February 25, 1940-December 2, 2010).
If you disagree with me in any way, you are wrong.
Quite a remarkable meltdown by the Rangers. I think it's the worst ever.

by scottsdalecubs on Oct 28, 2011 12:10 AM CDT up reply actions
Ok, did anybody NOT see this coming? This game opitimized the St Louis Cardinals and Tony LaRussa
Tony LaRussa teams have one thing in common every single year: the ability to rally via the line drive and the shallow line drive. Tony’s teams, when trailing in the 7th inning or later, always seem to hit a flair liner into the outfield. They do this until they’ve got somebody on 2nd with less than two outs. Then comes the home run. They also always seem to have random dudes who are awful (like Aaron Miles) sign a 1 year deal and hit .300 until leaving the following year and sucking again.
I don’t care if we’d have to pay out the ass. Tony LaRussa needs to be managing the Cubs next year.
A frickin' team of destiny...
…starting from the day Marmol unleashed that game ending wild pitch in St. Louis.
"Keep looking into the past and you'll keep repeating the past" - Some Smart Guy
The Cubs horribleness did play a small part in this.......
