The last time these 2 teams met in the series, St. Louis also went up 3-1 and then lost the next 3 games. Though in that case, it was a Cardinal centerfielder named Curt that slipped. And according to Joe Buck, the winner of game 4 in both the '34 and '68 Cardinals-Tigers series went on to...

It won't be moot if there's a game 6 ...

I think that depends upon the team and player, to some extent. I recall, for example, Tino Martinez getting a big hand when he came back to Yankee Stadium as a Devil Ray or Cardinal. Same with David Wells, when he came back as a Padre - but not when he came back as a Red Sock.

Me too. They were favorite team back in the '60s and early '70s, for some reason (maybe because I liked their uniforms), though my favorite player was originally Dick Groat and then either Lou Brock or Curt Flood. But I rooted against them in '85 and '87 (I hated Whitey Herzog from his days...

We already know it (from watching the games).

How so? Will that turn you into a Yankee fan? Or do you expect the Red Sox to hire Torre?

There's a chance that all of my AL/NLDS predictions will come out wrong. Actually, I wouldn't mind if the Mets play the Cards in the NLCS. I was sort of neutral about the A's-Twins. But I sure hope my other prediction comes out right (though it will take more than 4 games). Go Yanks!

So I guess that guarantees that the Rangers win the World Series next year?

.. and then punch the wall.

Yanks over Tigers in 4 Twins over A's in 5 Dodgers over Mets in 5 Padres over Cards in 3 Yanks over Twins in 6 Padres over Dodgers in 7 And a repeat of the 1998 World Series: Yanks over Padres in 4 (Kevin Brown will throw out the first ball before each game.)

What does everyone think of the Cardinals' chances of winning the World Series?

It's strange that nobody is mentioning Joe Mauer for the MVP anymore - isn't he leading the league in hitting? There were a few mentions for Santana a while back but no longer. Is there some kind of campaign to consolidate all the Twins MVP votes for Morneau just to make sure the MVP doesn't...

I wish he had been this human during the 2003 World Series..

Today's headline on the YES network's website is: Hip Hip Jorge

I think it would be great if they were.

At least he didn't hit anyone this time.

I'd guess someone will hit .400 before anyone hits in 57 straight games. Which one is more "impressive" is another question. I suppose someone could go 1 for 5 in 57 straight games, in which case hitting .400 over an entire season would seem like a bigger accomplishment. Not that DiMaggio...

In my imho, 511 wins is a littler impressiver.

Have they converted him into an outfielder?

But after 16 games, I'll bet they'll be no further from first place in their division than the Houston Texans were.
