McGwire's #62 was cheaper than Berkman's three-run homer in the 7th.
Please. It was a rope. Just b/c it never got up very high, that shouldn't matter. Berk's HR is a can of corn on most high school fields I played on.Originally Posted by Sooner04
thats why i hate minute maid park, you shouldnt be able to fling your bat like Berkman did and watch it go over the fence
absurd
You serious? It too was a rope and landed three rows into the seats 15-20 feet above the field about 20 feet to the right of the 315 sign. If it's not a homer at most parks, it's at least a double that clears the bases. Berk's got a hell of a swing, that's why his ball doesn't tail. He fires rockets all over the outfield.Originally Posted by Stanley1
McGwire hit his about the same distance, but with assistance from Professor Frink.
I hate baseball.
That swing is pretty sweet. I'm sure he'll put it to good use on the golf course next week.

he doesn't kick the leg like I used to though. added a couple of bloops here and there.
Why are cards so obsessed with ballpark smack? Extremely weak.
Both teams were playing at the exact same ballpark the exact same night. There is absolutely nothing that you can say that will change that fact.

We couldn't have been more banged up. Also, what was up with all the bad calls in this series. Another one last night on the "phantom" tag of Molina at 2B.

Dude, you sound like Mack. Were the cards going against the wind too? Cards are always a tough team. To win at Busch is even tougher... Kudos to the Astros and Oswalt. I really thought the Cards had the advantage going into the game last night.Originally Posted by Stanley1
Great game IMO
probably better the Cards didn't make it...LaRussa would just go 1-5 in trying to win a World Series anyway.Originally Posted by Stanley1
please no, support the National League, thanks.<sigh>

Funny how people are ridiculing Minute Maid park for one of the very same things they find endearing to Fenway and Yankee Stadium.
Last I checked, both teams get to play in the same park and have the same opportunity to hit 'cheap' home runs. Though Pujols and Berkman's shots certainly weren't cheap.
I don't think it's so much about the Astros beating the Cards as it is the Astros were once 15-30 this year and came back to win the pennant.Bragging about beating this Cardinals team is like ut bragging about beating OU this year.
