Faust has also been incredibly stubborn this game. In other news, it's hot in the summer, and water falls from the sky when it rains.

Good job Nat's. While I want the Redbirds to win that series, I'm glad to see a forced 5th game, and a forced use of a Starter.

Never.

"Never" sounds like a long time. But really, divisional series have only existed since 1995 (technically 1994 when the league expanded to 28 teams and re-aligned to 3 divisions per league, but they didn't happen due to the strike), so this is only the 18th year they've been played...

But still, playoffs have been particularly good this year.

What a phenomenal game to finish LDS on. Absolutely exhilarating. Even Nationals fans, as much as this sucks, have to have some serious respect for the incredible fight that the Cards have shown. I tip my hat to both teams. They both left their hearts out on the field - no matter who comes out on top tonight.

Good Lord, these have been some crazy playoffs. I have to say though, I really despise the cardinals more and more every year. Barely sneaking into the playoffs and then pulling crazy shenanigan after crazy shenanigan. Every single feel good playoff story is dead. I think I'm forced to root for the Giants now.

Also, in regards to my playoff predictions. It is impossible for me to have been more wrong.

Yeah, so much for my Reds-A's, A's in 6 prediction. But wow, that was such an impressive game. I don't begrudge the Card's what they've done. They epitomize "Anything can happen in October." They really do. But I won't ever consider them underdogs. I won't ever consider them weak, or incapable, or out. I respect what they've proven they can do. But unless they're playing the Dodgers or Yankees, I just have to pull for whatever team they're facing. They need to be set down a few times. It'll be good for them, and it'll be great for fans. These walk off, or come back, or never give up story lines are just becoming ridiculous. I tip my hat. I respect them. But I'm ready for them to lose.

Not that I have watched a lot of baseball this year--having no TV makes sport watching a bit difficult--but after last night's games I now have absolutely no interest in following the playoffs anymore as all 4 times that I wanted to win lost... SF vs an Albert Pulosless St. Louis--nothing there. Detroit vs the Yankees... only my two least favorite AL baseball teams of all time... no interest there.

Sigh... TBS on the other hand, I am sure, is thrilled that all the large market teams made it through.

I mostly agree with you on the team level. I really don't care for any of them. But there are some interesting story lines that could unfold. Can Carlos Beltran continue to be the best postseason hitter of all time? At least one Sabathia/Verlander game. Can Verlander continue his historic postseason strikeout rates? Can we get three game 7's for maximum postseason games?

San Fransisco has 800,000 people. The greater bay area has ~3 million people split between two teams. Not quite large-market.

According to wikipedia, the Bay Area metro is 4.3 million, and they surely draw from Sacramento and other more rural parts of Northern CA.  Also I'm pretty sure the Giants have the lion's share of the fans in the area.
