The Cardinals came back to earth a bit last night, but splitting the first two games of the series on the road is still a good start. It's disppointing to lose a game started by Chris Carpenter, usually one of our most solid pitchers. Hopefully we can take 3 in a row at home and rest a few weary arms before the World Series, but I won't get ahead of myself.
One way to look at this series is that it has transformed from a 7-game series without homefield advantage to a 5-game series with homefield advantage for the Cardinals. That sounds like a better deal to me, although a shorter series always carries a bit more risk of an upset.
