This is St. Louis' 4th World Series appearance in the last decade. Yet still no respect.
I'm glad the Cards didn't choke away their 3-1 series lead this year like they did in 1996 and 2012. With Kershaw and Ryu looming, I got worried. With all the pitching that's been flashed this post-season, I REALLY didn't expect to see Kershaw get smoked like that.
