TALK OF THE TOWN 10/16: CARDS 1 WIN AWAY FROM WORLD SERIES!

Cardinals at Dodgers

Let’s start, Top 3rd, Cardinals batting and Matt Carpenter blasts a double to left center, that drives in a run and the Cardinals are up 1-0. Two batters later Matt Holliday crushes a two run homerun to left field, 423 feet and the Saint Louis Cardinals are up 3-0! But Yasiel Puig and the Dodgers would come back! Dodgers batting in the 4th and Puig hits a single to center, that drives in Dodgers player Adrian Gonzalez so it’s 3-1 Cards. Then Dodgers batter A.J. Ellis singles to center to drive in yet another run! However the Cardinals got a double play right after that to end the Dodgers chances! The Cards added one more run with a Shane Robinson solo home run so the Cardinals win 4-2.
