let the fun start . . .

So you may think that the St. Louis Cardinals really belonged in the series this year and that the Giants are just plumb lucky . . . maybe, maybe not. It brings to my mind the last time I sat in Candlestick Park in 1971 and watched as Willie Mays made an amazing catch in the outfield saving an inning . . . I don't remember how he hit that night (or how Willie McCovey) hit but that catch is mental picture for me that rivals his best long balls . . . best all-round ball player. Best. Tigers will be uphill for this team but then the Cardinals were uphill also. Let the fun start.
