Reyes will be gone. Fans will roast him.

Dodgers’ home run power overcomes the Cardinals’ voodoo and devil magic.

[HarveysWBs]

Wow. Guess that ends the magical run of the 2021 Cardinals.

 

[owbc]

Cards fans—how does it feel to have your entire season taken away just like that???? Hahahahaha!!!!

Nobody beating the Dodgers in a series

Chris Taylor had some voo doo HR PH magic on the Crew too recently no? I know he didn't PH here but he is just another weapon in their insanely capable offensive lineup. Great to see the Cards lose. NOW, let's take care of our business and hope the Giants pull it off.

Have a bad feeling that will end up proven true. Cardinals had best chance with the one-game matchup. Giants have next best chance with the short series.

[Fear The Chorizo]

That's a pretty perfect way to end the Cards' season.

 

I constantly hear about how great Reyes' stuff is....seems like it winds up in the seats an awful lot

Not sure how you can state that after tonight's game - if Muncy isn't able to go that lineup doesn't look nearly as imposing. It took them having a guy in a horrible slump hitting a cement mixter slider he never should have been thrown in the bottom of the 9th to prevent the game going to extras at 1-1, and they would have had to use one of their starters out of the bullpen in the 10th.

 

Don't get me wrong, the Dodgers are a great team - but certainly not invincible over a best of 5 or 7.

[BruisedCrew]

I literally dozed off during the pitching change and missed the game winner.

[JRob1125]

I was hoping the Cards knocked off the Dodgers and lost to SF in the NLDS......but at the same timed loved seeing them get eliminated

[yourout]

Hope i am wrong but i think the dodgers go 11 and 5 and are never seriously challenged on they way to back to back rings.

[PinaMadness]

Chris Taylor, baby!!!

[pacopete4]

Son of Jake Taylor so it’s no surprise he came through in the big moment.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

I'll worry about the Dodgers next week. But for now, this is awesome! LOL vaunted Cardinals offense. LOL 17-game winning streak! What'd that get you? Get back on the rack, Andro O'Neill!

 

In all seriousness, though ... that was a pretty awesome baseball game. Proof positive that it's all about pitching in the playoffs. Thankfully the Brewers have a little bit of that.

I felt our best chance of winning the World Series take a devastating hit last night, so I'm not nearly as delighted as many at seeing the Cardinals make a quick exit.

 

Maybe the Giants can take care of them, but I doubt it.

Ehh, if you want to be the best, you have to beat the best. The Dodgers are a tough matchup for sure. But they aren't infallible.

 

But let's get through the Braves first ... then worry about which western juggernaut to attack.

Not necessarily. You can let somebody else beat the best and then beat them.

I think everyone not named the dodgers chances took a hit last night.

Kind of interesting rooting for the Cardinals for a change (the first time ever?)

 

I very much recall rooting for the Cards over the Dodgers in '85. Jack Clark's dinger making Lasorda's head explode.
