The main reasoning I have behind my vote for the Cardinals is the fact that the Cardinals beat the Astros last year in the NLCS. I know each team has changed subtly since last year, but I still think the Cardinals are a better team. Also, the Cardinals have had more rest than the Astros, which will benefit their pitchers' arms. However, I do see this series going 7 games.

Did you guys happen to watch the Astros/Braves game 5 on Sunday?? The 18-inning marathon? I just caught the end of the game, but I later found out that the only reason it went to extra innings was because Kyle Farnsworth (former Detroit Tiger) gave up a grand slam in the 8th inning and a solo HR in the 9th inning (with 2 outs). That's pretty freaking hilarious.

I thought it was funny because Farnsworth was 10/10 in save opportunities for the Braves before that one...

Cards ain't dead yet!!!!! Down 3-1 in games and in the top of the 9th down 4-2:
Eckstein down 2outs and 2 strikes on him and comes through with a single.
Edmonds works Lidge for a walk.
Puljos up and a slider that didn't slide-------- BOOM
5-4 Cards---Astros have defensive players up to bat and Issy shuts the door.
Now that's Baseball.
