Yeah, just felt the nerves start right now. I'm thinking about a quick jog?

I was exhausted when I woke up this morning, but after an entire pot of coffee, I made it through the day. Everyone at work looked at me, knowing full well why I looked like an extra from The Walking Dead, and more than one said he was pulling for us tonight.

That being said, I can't help but think this will be my theme song tonight....no matter what happens.

I jogged at 3 and just took the dogs out and ran around in the yard for ten minutes and neither helped.

About to head out to a bar to catch the game with some friends. Can't freaking wait. I just spent the last 15 minutes watching clips of last night. I watched the triple about 10 times in a row.

Don't worry all, we've got this. I'm breaking out the Steve Kline hat tonight. Last wore that puppy in the 06 series. See you all at the party!

It's been a fun day listening to all the buzz over last night. I don't think I've ever heard baseball talked about so much.

A guy on Around the Horn made a good point. If there was an east coast team/s involved, it would be ALL they talked about today. I love it. This proves that the Yankees don't need to be involved for a series to be good. :)

I'm really stoked. Expecting a normal game. I think that Carpenter will be fine and our offense will jump on Harrison and knock him out early. He'll have "the nerves" and lose command and leave balls over the plate.

They've had too many games where their pitchers are dealing and their offense is coming through exactly when they need to. Tonight that changes. Our hits will find holes, their's will be right at our fielders. We'll make the pitches. They will leave it over the plate.

8-5 final, Cards win.
