It's Time For the Playoffs
Posted by: Denelle
Please forgive my absence earlier this week, I'm doing last minute GRE craming and I've been under the weather . . . consequently there aren't enough hours in the day. However, today is cause for celebration. Why, you ask?? Because the Cardinals won game one of their division series playoff yesterday. -- you can hear the cheers errupting from around the country, well, from everywhere but Louisiana where Bradley is still sniffing over the fact that his 'Stros didn't make the playoffs --
Not surprisingly the tenor of yesterday's Cards win over the Padres (5-1) was set by the darling, the beloved, the absolutely adored (at least by me), Albert Pujols.

Not surprisingly the tenor of yesterday's Cards win over the Padres (5-1) was set by the darling, the beloved, the absolutely adored (at least by me), Albert Pujols.
San Diego Padres ace Jake Peavy tempted Pujols with one pitch too many and the slugger, who has a shot at a second straight NL MVP award, responded with a two-run homer that launched the Cardinals to a 5-1 victory in the opening game of the division series . . .
Following Pujols' homer, Jim Edmonds singled, Scott Rolen doubled and Juan Encarnacion hit a sacrifice fly.
See, even Albert knows that God is a Cardinals fan.
Can't wait for game two on Thursday. Oh, and can anybody tell me when Qualcom Park (I think that was its name) became Petco Park??? I don't care how much money they give you, who names their stadium after a pet store?
