GDT 10/27/11-Rangers (Lewis) @ Cardinals (García) 7:05 CDT

[Richie Allen]

I gotta love Wash still batting Napoli 7th. The only way it could be better is if he batted him 8th ahead of the pitcher.

Except that he keeps coming up in key situations.

Yeah, they're like a [expletive] softball team lineup where you put a cleanup hitter every 4th batter.

The only reasonable move would be to move Cruz to 7th but he was their hottest hitter coming in.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous. But after seeing our #STLCards come thru time & again with their backs against the wall I #believe.

Did not know Lewis gave up a league leading 35 homers.

We need some good base runners tonight

Are you guys seeing Stan coverage? If so, is on Fox?

[Felix The Cat]

The Fox guys fellating the Texas Rangers is a little more unbearable when we're facing elimination.

Joe just killed the national anthem.

The Fox guys fellating the Texas Rangers is a little more unbearable when we're facing elimination.

On Colby Lewis:
"He's not a guy you feel uncomfortable facing . . . I expect him to have a big game tonight."

On Jaime, who out-pitched Lewis in game 2:
"He's going to have to make some adjustments against these Texas hitters if he wants to have success tonight."
