Let’s Go Cardinals….Clap, Clap, Clap, Clap, Clap

Posted by JE Powell

The title of this post is also a chant that can be heard whenever you go to a Cardinals home game. Right now the Cardinals need our support, perhaps more than at any point this season. With tonight’s 6-5 victory over the Mets, coupled with the Braves 4-0 loss to the Marlins, the Cards sit a mere 1.5 games behind the Braves for the Wild Card. The Braves have 6 games left and the Cardinals have 7, so it’s going to go down to the wire.

Right now the Cardinals are playing solid baseball, predicated on the notion that efficient pitching and timely hitting wins games. The Cards finished 3-1 in a four game series against the Phillies, a team that many experts think will represent the National League in the World Series.

The season is drawing to a close and the Cardianls are definately hot right now, but they need to keep winning to have a shot at a playoff berth. After they finish this series with the Mets, the Cards must face the Cubs and Astros. The Cubs will not give in and that will be a tough series and, although they have not had a good season, Houston could play spoiler. It’s not an easy road ahead. So, put on your Cardinals apparel, tune in to Fox Sports Midwest and CHEER, CHEER, CHEER!
