Maybe only better. Not for me of course, because my childhood hero Kirby Puckett had the winning home run back in 1991. But in terms of suspense and almost certainty that the Cardinals were done for the year, last night’s game 6 was amazing. I’ll admit, I don’t really follow NL baseball that much, so [...]
