The last man to touch a baseball in a postseason game at Shea Stadium turns out to have been Adam Wainwright's catcher, Yadier Molina. That's really too bad, but really quite appropriate. Molina, you might recall, set the stage one half-inning earlier for everything bad that has happened to these Mets since he caught Called Strike Three on October 19, 2006. In the top of the ninth, he broke a 1-1 tie...

Buster Olney's latest offering is packed full of links: Bernie Miklasz notes that the Cardinals have only three starting pitchers (Adam Wainwright, Todd Wellemeyer, and Joel Pineiro) locked up for next year (he's not expecting Chris Carpenter to contribute in 2009), and no prospects waiting in the wings. His solution? Pry open owner Bill DeWitt's wallet, "and please, no el cheapo deals for rehabbing...

Woohoo! It didn't look good early when Ian Snell gave up a run in the first thanks to some shoddy defense, but the offense, amazingly, came through against a very good pitcher, Adam Wainwright. Snell would give up many more, but the Bucs came back off Wainwright, tying things 6-6 in the 5th inning. - It stayed that way until the 12th, thanks to remarkable bullpen work by both teams. I'm talking for...
