The Rangers draw first blood, but after that it has been all-St Louis. Allen Craig homers yet again. He is replacing Matt Holliday who is injured and will not be playing.
2 walk off runs with the bases loaded in the bottom 5th. Who would have thought this would happen in a pivotal game 7 with the winner take all? Texas needs to start throwing strikes. Down by 3 runs in the top 7th, its time to pile it on, if not the homecrowd will explode.
St Louis scores in the bottom of the 7th. 6-2!
Scoreless top 8th for Texas. 3 outs left for them to make a difference and have a comeback...in the 9th. Nelson Cruz, Mike Napoli and David Murphy are up to bat. Bottom of the order.
Texas is down to their final out- 11:21pm EST
One minute later, after 2 pitches, David Murphy flies out to left field........and the ST LOUIS CARDINALS ARE YOUR 2011 WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS. 14/15 weeks till pitchers and catchers report for spring training, to console myself for the Yankees.
