Wouldn't actually call the Cards a small ball team. Walker, Pujols, Rolen, and Edmonds are all 40 + HR guys. They've really just run into a hot Red Sox team right now, riding a huge wave of momentum.

Using small ball doesn't preclude power, TG. Check the stats.

I will say that I did expect a better showing from the best tema from the other side! 
May be tonight we will see a better showing.
I hope!

I'll 2nd that TG. I just want to see good baseball by both sides going down to the wire, the same as the 2 league championship series'. Let's hope for 7 games winner take all at the end!
